Product Description
-------------------
The Moto Razr V3 is expertly crafted to deliver exceptional
performance. Inside the ultra-thin design are advanced features
like MPEG4 video playback, Bluetooth® wireless technology, a
digital camera and more. And with the precision-cut keypad,
minimalist styling and metal finish, the V3 looks just as
beautiful as it performs. The real difference is in the details.
See who’s calling, in color, without opening your phone — the
large internal display is complemented by an impressive external
display. The precision-cut metal keypad reacts to the lightest of
touches. And the features you can't always see are equally
impressive, like quad-band GSM — for global calls where GSM
network coverage and roaming agreements are present.

When the Motorola RAZR V3 was launched last year, I think most
everybody, including Motorola itself, was quite surprised by how
popular the handset turned out to be, considering the asking
price. Its slim profile and sleek silver colored metal body
proved to be just too much of a temptation for the world, and
people the world over jumped through hoops and over hurdles just
to get one for their very own. Everybody was a movie star with
one of these!
Black is beautiful.Until, of course, Motorola gave 50 exclusive
RAZR V3 BLK handsets to some real movie stars at the 77th Annual
Academy Awards in February, 2005. All of a sudden, the silver
RAZR lost some of its shine. But once again, it is time for the
masses to rejoice. Motorola is making the RAZR BLK available to
all.
Of course it isn't just the color that makes the RAZR V3 BLK such
a desirable handset. One reason that people love it so is its
size. It weighs only 3.35oz (95g), which is pretty light for a
phone that has a largely metal body. At 3.86" x 2.17" x .57"
(98mm x 55mm x 14.5mm) in size, it is actually thinner than most
candy bar style phones on the market. It can be slipped perfectly
into a shirt, suit, or pants pocket, as well as a purse, without
being noticed.
There is so much more to the RAZR V3 BLK than its physical being,
though. Certainly the primary purpose of any phone must be making
phone calls, and in spite of its small stature, the RAZR V3 BLK
managed a full 7 hours of talk time in our tests - a very
respectable showing. A related bonus is the fact that you can
charge the RAZR V3 BLK directly from your computer's USB port
with the same type of mini-USB cable that you probably already
have for your digital camera. That's one less power adapter to
pack in the suitcase. Support for all 4 GSM frequency bands means
that the RAZR will work in San Francisco and New York just as
well as it will in Paris and London. The handset's internal
antenna also proved to be quite capable, offering up very good
reception in weak signal areas.
Of course some compromises had to be made to get all of this
functionality into such a small package. The keypad, for example,
is a very thin metal unit that offers less tactile feedback than
most, though it makes up for that somewhat by looking fantastic
in the dark, thanks to its cool blue back light. While quite
usable, it might take a bit of getting used to. No compromises
were made with the main display, though: a nice 2.2" 65k color
TFT unit, with 176 x 220 pixel resolution. The external display
is also color, though only a 4k CSTN type.
The Motorola RAZR V3 BLK is thin and definitely in.
The built-in VGA camera proved itself to be one of the better
ones on the market, offering good contrast, color, and focus in
most situations. The RAZR's polyphonic sound system also works
quite well, and even allows you to use MP3 files as ringtones. So
if you have a few dollars to spare in your quest for looking like
a movie star, Motorola has got just the thing you need. Luckily,
the RAZR V3 BLK has the brains to back up the beauty.
