Anyone got this phone? What do you think of it? I really like the styling and the slimness. My V300 went missing in action, so I'm using an old nokia phone right now with new sim card. My upgrade comes up beginning of august.

i concur with this. the razor is as durable as a brown bag of diarrea.

Hmm. I know I should get something more durable, but then again, I never dropped the V300 so hopefully I can be careful with something like this. The more I look at it, the more I want it. All other phones look boring to me now :shrug:

it's not about dropping it, it's just about opening and closing it. it's that cheaply built.

My mate has one, very nice phone, but the v635 is the more feature-packed version of the phone (but its thicker). The v635 has a memory socket for expandable memory (play mp3s, probably videos) it also records video, and is cheaper.

Do you have one?

Drum, I have one. Its alright, the size is awesome. The volume is a bit low, and when youre scrolling through the adress book it lags a bit. Definantly not worth the price i paid for it..but now they are half the price. Nice big screen. As for durability, i dunno what the hell you people do with your phones..but ive had mine for 6 months and nothings broke. Ive even dropped it a couple times.

I wish our tmobile had them. Instead fucking Cingular had to get exclusive rights and drove the price up.

of course i don't own one, it's a piece of crap. that doesn't mean i've not used one. i don't comment on things of this nature unless i've used it.

Motorola V3 Razr
interesting, i've mostly seen it referred to as just the Razr. even motorola.com lists the word Razr before the V3. i keep thinking V300.

SonyEricsson is where it's at.

The upcoming W800i will be very good.

No Cingular service in my area. Unlocked razrs on ebay are still much higher.

Cool.Well the good thing about buying through T mobile is that they allow me to send it back and swap for another if I'm not happy with it. At least, I seem to remember that being the case the last time I upgraded. If the volume is the same as my motorola V300, then that wouldn't be a problem. I'll have to see how bad the scrolling is though.

Yeah, I think I can get the sony ericsson 750i for about the same price, and I know it has better features, not to mention a 2 megapixel camera. My nephew has one. I did have the sony ericsson T68i a while back. But I prefer flipfones these days. I dunno, if the V3 does't work out I might go for a sony ericsson.
