Motorola Razr V3xx

By Jeremy Roche on 12 April 2007

Motorola's mid-range V3xx gets in the fast lane with HSDPA-boosted 3G speeds. It has a svelte profile like the original RAZR -- unlike the chunky V3x -- but we're tiring of the two-year-old design.

    • Good: Slim
      Good battery
      Great as a modem
      Quick and responsive
      Good speaker compared to some laptops!
    • Bad: A2DP compatibility issues and customer support is not interested
      Predictive text is a step back from a Nokia 3310!
      Has frozen 3 times in 6 months

    Good overall phone, although it is not compatible with all A2DP headsets. My Sony HBH-DS220 works well until the song ends, when it disconnects. It then reconnects in mono mode and must be repaired. It is very annoying and Motorola support continually avoid the issue. They wont investigate fixing the issue in a firmware update and expect me to buy a Motorola headset.

    • Good: Good looks
      Simple to use
      Reliable
    • Bad: Needs earplug jack
      Outside screen could be a bit larger
      PC software is buggy.

    Great phone. I dropped it in a sink of water, dried it out & it kept on going!!! Not overloaded with things I don't use or need. Easy to use, good to look at.

    • Good: Sexy, slim, great reception and call quality
    • Bad: Avg outer screen and normal battery life... Not huge cons...

    From a self-confessed fone junkie, this phone has been issue free and 100% solid. Average, or should I say normal acceptable battery life is not a con for me as the phones with exceptional battery life are boring featureless phones. Great reception, call quality, build quality and screen. Average 'does the job' outer screen.

    A sexy phone that is all but perfect...

    Such a great phone. Still loving the styling... just wish motorola would release one more version but with a 3+ megapixel camera, updated user interface and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Now that would be the ultimate RAZR!!!

    • Good: Excellent phone, thinner version of the v3x, fast 3G, USB support, more mem. stick support
    • Bad: Camera (It's descent,but it would be better with 2.0MP,comsidering that it only came out last year)

    I've had this phone for 3 months and it's been great! I got a black, unlocked v3xx from indonesia (Got it for a good price too,half of what it is in AUS)

    • Bad: the camera was a bit unfocused at times.....
