March 08 I purchased this phone, (A lifetime I now realise in mobile years!) to use purely as a phone, & a really good easy to use camera. A vodaphone shop said this was ideal & it has proved so. For this, & excellent texting visability & good address bk, alarms & calendar, I love it! But I do not go on Internet with it. I can imagine using the internet would drain it. The battery DOES run down in a day or so quickly, anyway, with taking photos but I frequently charge.
I purchased a 4MB memory to allow me plenty of extra power & all those pics!
I do some illustration & graphics, so the camera is great for quick referencing, plus superb quality for reading text & really very good for small photo print-outs of postcard size. I seem to not have problems with indoor evening light too, dispite no flash. I use Photoshop to enhance & tweek colours. It is all I take with me on holidays!! Quick & simple! One gripe is that it does not properly sync with my Mac. I also use a narrow little bag on a neck leash to keep it in. This stops the camera lens getting scratched. Now alas I seem to be unable to replace this rapidly aging leather holder, tho I might make one now! No phone like it now either..
Sad to find things go so soon out of date, & searching around I found this website, so I like to write a tombstone testimonial to dear ol' RAZR2V9X..!

So, do you folks think this is the last of a long line of Razrs? In a touch screen world, is there room for another Razr?

If you do the simple math, that means 4.2in screen, and I don't exactly recall any other phone has 4.2in screen at this moment, hence these Moto phones drain power like fuel for SUV.

If fuel economy / battery power is your main concern, you should not even consider this phone in the first place (like an SUV).

I also use my V8 and V9 (yes, I use both on different networks) quite lightly, and battery may not last for a day as well. My advice is simply keep a USB cable at work, and charge the phone at home at nite. That way you should have continuous power.

Will battery be dead soon? By that time chances are you will switch to other devices.

I have got a v9x for just over one week. So far the biggest disappointment about this phone is the short battery life, could hardly hold 8 hours on one charge under very light usage (like making at most 20 minutes phone call, taking a few pictures, checking out a few missed calls, etc, and I haven't started using it playing music, video games or connecting internet). I have tried to follow some battery power saving rules only to get more frustrated. The external touch screen buttons also function in a very awkward and illogical order setting. And the unavailability of MPT software ------ I am really beginning to lose my patience and thinking of returning it for a change.

With the V9, you can only listen to music from the external screen. I hope that helps.
