Motorola RAZR V3 - user opinions and reviews
- i talk sense

to the guy who compared the Mercedes Maybach to the motorola V3 !!! HA... u nailed it there, spot on correct!
the Maybach is basically a stretched 1991 S-class,with a nice shiny new body and interior on it. but it is still a crappy old S-class underneath.
likewise the V3 is nice and shiny and modern to look at, but inside it seems to be the SAME OLD CRAP what Motorola use on all their phones !
poor memory, the menus arent easy to use, it is just not as intuative to use, as say Nokias are. the functions dont come naturally to you, you really have to stop and think about what buttons you are pressing. i shall go back to my Nokia 6230 methinks!
and before anyone has a go at me, i have owned x2 Mororola V3 now and have been really nice and shiny and good to pose with,but only because it looks different.unfortunately when you peel away the glossy exterior, you are left witha very average phone.
guess what i am selling on e-bay now ???!!!

I'm stuck with the phone now. I get more annoyed with it the more I try to do with it. There has to be a way to expand the memory because 5.5mb is enough for 2 minutes at the KPS high enough to take advantage of the screen which is nothing once youve decided to take some photos for your phone book. But with a bit of tweeking you can reach the 10 minute mark which looks like WMV's crappy rez.
Another confusing thing is why it seems to sync which G5s and g4 laptops but not my G4DP mirror door even through a usb2 port which is beyond comprehension. Especially because I also running OSX10.3.8 which is five updates later than any of my friends machines.
Yet more I cant put contacts in two category groups for easy access. or allow me to search using more that just the first letter like with my old nokia which is a pain when the name begins with A or S... Right?
How can so much funding go into a fundamentaly flawed phone that will probably contain the same problems in every future generation becuase motorola have kept on not listening to the users of their phones.
Little thinks like rearnaging the screen which imposes horrible graphics in unnatural places on the screen with button sequences that test your reflexes from right enter button, to left enter button, to middle enter etc.. it's crazy.
.. Shortcuts well thats another thing ...if this phone want to be treated like a PDA then it should act like a PDA. If I want somthing to be easy to find I move it from it's folder not just create a short cut and special number in anothe folder full of other shortcuts... why is everything so difficult. the only reason I'm keeping it is because I cannot return it and that the data connection is currently the only think I can connect to the internet with via bluetooth.
Good luck to anyone who just wants a fancy mug me phone to hold on the train..

I wonder if all these people who say a lot of bad things about the V3, have really bought one for their personal use? Mercedes and V3 goes hand in hand, that's for sure. Remember the Macbath, which is a top luxury highest class made by Mercedes? Well, can you guys remember what kind of phones it had inside when came on market? it had a Motorola V70 and a Nokia Communicator. Well,guess what? The V3 will be inside of the heppy new buyers of 2005 Macbath model. Before having my V3, I used to have a V60 and a Nokia Communicator 9210. I gave bot6h of it away and replace it with the V3. I will probably buy a second phone, for special professional use, a new Nokia of some kind. I bet it will be a big and preety heavy phone,according to my personal needs, which I will carry in my suitcase. But,at my trousesr's belt, will be like a king, my V3 of course. So, the ideea is like this: do you have a lot of needs for the modern communication, then go buy yourself, whatever you think will make your life easier, but if you need a light beautiful phone for day to day use, go for the V3. It can easily be your second phone. But you will see that people will admire it more then your first option phone, trust me on this...

I live in Hong Kong, I drive a Mercedes Benz C55 AMG & I also have a V3.
My C55 AMG can out perform any Honda you care to mention (including the NSX)!
The V3 is really a crappy phone to use, the manu is difficult & illogical, the phone is too wide for a comfortable grip & the functions are dated !

I drive a Mercedes Benz C-class. My buddy's brand new Honda Accord out performs it on just about every count, and for the price I paid for the Mercedes I could have gotten a Toyota with a jacuzzi on the roof! But you'd have to shoot me to get me to give up my Mercedes. It's the same story with my Motorola V3.

I find it is such a shame that people who do not read the news about phones, post here things which are not true. It is so bad that so many ignorant people, who will not even be able to buy a V3 soon, are telling us, the owners of a V3, how things are going on with it. It is a shame not to know that V3 belongs to the luxury design class of mobiles, the best you can get. It's number one competitor is Vertu. It doesn't matter the diffrence in price. Both are in the same class of stylish phones. The buyers of these phones doesn't ask in the shop "how much does this phone costs?" The buyers of these phones pay whatever is to be payed, just to have a beautiful mobile in the pocket. I am not interested to have a Vertu in my pocket. But, I am crazy about my Motorola. Everyone who is looking at my phone, is amazed of so much beauty that comes from a piece of aluminium...I have sean it in the shop,it took my breath away, and I simply bought it. Before seeing it, I've read things about it. It is ok not too have so many functions. I love the way it looks, and nothing else matters...

Allright lets stop cursing this phone, the point is that this phone for people who cant/dont want to use updated phone technology mostly they r old people or can be kid ages to 12. And you know you wont need this phone in this kind of time while other phone is competing for better feature. If you a high tech or a proffessional ppl u sure will regret having this fone. Even if u buy this fone for its look sooner or later u become boring of the looks.

If you want a mobile with a large screen, easy to use buttons, stylish looks and the majority of Tech features, this phone is for you.
If you want one with everything look elsewhere. JC.
