Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Motorola RAZR V3 was a raging success, thanks to its slim, groundbreaking design and powerful features. But now it's time for a new RAZR, one with even more power and features. The newest RAZR, the V3x, promises to be just as sensational as its predecessor, thanks to a 2-megapixel camera, a supplementary camera for video calls, a microSD card slot, a massive screen, and lots more. If you have to have the coolest, most cutting edge phone, here it is.

The same stunning design -- with groundbreaking new features.

Design
The RAZR V3x's design borrows heavily from it's predecessor, and from a distance you'd be hard pressed to tell the two apart. You get the same impressive, anodized aluminum construction, and an external 96 x 80 full color display that can display pictures, time, call information, battery and signal strength, and more. Above this display, though, you'll find a big addition: a 2-megapixel camera.

Inside the flip, the main display has been upgraded to a massive 320 x 240 pixels with 262,000 colors. There's also a supplementary VGA camera below the display for capturing your face when you make video calls, as well as a wide or macro switch for controlling the camera's field of view. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's backlit control pad, which, like the RAZR V3, is precision cut from a single sheet of nickel-plated copper alloy. Charging and USB data cable ports are provided, as is a slot for a microSD card. The phone supports up to 512 MB of removable memory.

Calling Features
Part of the big news about the V3x is that it supports third-generation, or "3G," data services on GSM networks. As HSDPA-compatible networks come online in the U.S. you'll be able to take advantage of blistering mobile data speeds for video calls, multimedia, and internet access. In other news, the V3x's speakerphone is designed to make it easy to talk hands free when you're busy with other tasks. Meanwhile, a vibrate alert silently notifies you of incoming calls when you want to be discreet.

The phone's 5 MB of internal memory provides ample space for all your contacts and addresses -- up to 1000 of them. Plus, the V3x's advanced, speaker-independent voice recognition allows you to state a number/name and be connected without the need for pre-recording the contact's name. And, of course, because the V3x sports Bluetooth, your favorite wireless headset is compatible.

A massive 320 x 240 display and a supplementary camera for video calls.

Messaging, Internet, and Tools
In addition to support for email, instant messaging, and MMS, the RAZR V3x features Motorola's SCREEN3 technology, which gives you zero-click access to news, sports, entertainment, and other premium content directly from your mobile device home screen. There are no buttons to push, no browsers to launch. Meanwhile, a WAP 2.0 browser lets you browse the mobile web with ease.

iTap text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. And with Internet service and a data plan (not included) and its Bluetooth or USB data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs.

A number of handy software tools are bundled with the RAZR V3x including a voice memo recorder, a calculator, a calendar, a to-do list, and an alarm clock. The phone also supports the SyncML PC synchronization standard, can be used with Motorola's Mobile Phone Tools PC application to manage and synchronize contacts, calendar and other data with your PC.

Imaging and Entertainment
The V3x's powerful camera features an 8x zoom, a macro mode setting, and an LED flash. As mentioned, the phone also supports two-way video calling. A built-in media player supports playback of AAC+, MPEG4, WMV, WMA, MP3 and Real Video/Audio files. On top of all that, because the phone supports the newest version of Bluetooth, you can use a stereo Bluetooth headset with it to listen to your music in stereo and without wires.

Want to get your game on? The V3x's 3D graphics energize your gaming entertainment, making each twist, turn and supersonic blast seem real.

Vital Statistics
The Motorola V3x weighs 4.4 ounces and measures 3.8 x 2 x .8 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 5 hours of digital talk time, and up to 250 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the 900/1800/1900 MHz GSM/HSDPA frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

This review is from: Motorola RAZR V3x Unlocked Cell Phone with 2 MP Camera, 3G, MP3/Video Player, MicroSD Slot--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Blue) (Wireless Phone Accessory)

This phone has everything! It's great and fashionable! It's a little ticker than the V3 or V3i but for the new features it's worthed. Still very slim. Huge, colorfull and clear screen and a great 2MP digital camera (not as good as the SonyEricsson ones - my sister has a W900i with a 2MP camera that takes much better pictures than my V3x). But I prefer the size, since the w900i is bigger and bulkier than the razor V3x.
I have my V3x for 2 months now and I didn't find any CONS yet.

ok, I don't actually own THIS Razr but the first one (also unlocked though) but I just wanted to reply to those who have trouble using the internet. The thing with unlocked phones is, they are a blank slate in terms of internet and messaging settings. You actually have to load these setting from the wireless carrier's website that you are getting your service from. Cingular customer service should have known that. All you have to do is go to Cingular's website. There you click on the support tab and then the Answer center. There you can type in the question box " configuring multimedia messaging on Razr" and it'll show yo all relevant results. They actually walk you through the settings. They'll inlude internet settings as well.
On T-mobile's website they'll send the settings directly to your phone via text message. Just search for T-Mobile Wireless Configurator.
I've done it with different phones on both networks over the years since I like unlocked phones.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great phone...if you don't have Cingular, October 1, 2006

This review is from: Motorola RAZR V3x Unlocked Cell Phone with 2 MP Camera, 3G, MP3/Video Player, MicroSD Slot--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Blue) (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I bought the V3x a while back because I read that it supported GSM Bands 1900, 1800, and 850...was that site ever wrong. The phone supports GSM Bands 1900, 1800, and 900. So, if you have Cingular or another provider that supports the 850 GSM Band, don't buy this phone. Either get the Motorola RAZR V3i or Motorola MING A1200. If you live in the city or large town, you might get a good signal, but if you go into the small towns, you probably won't get a signal.

Anothing thing that I didn't like about the phone is the fact that it didn't support 320kbps MP3's. Most of my MP3's have a bitrate of 320kbps, so there is a lot of songs that I couldn't get to play.

When listening to music on the MP3 player, you can't do anything else unless you Suspend/Quit the MP3 player. No browsing the net or sending SMS/MMS messages while listening to your music.

Now, for some good stuff ^_^. The camera was really great for taking pictures of friends, but wasn't too great if they were moving =/. The cam even comes with a light, but it is only usful if you're in the dark (That's how great the cam is heh). You can record up to 3 mintues of video. Support J2ME applications/games. Comes with both Tap and iTap (V3 didn't have iTap). Can hold up to 512MB of space with a MicroSD card. Can use MP3 ringtones (V3 could too, but only very low quality MP3's). Supports 3G technology, such as Video Calling. And, best of all, the phone is cool looking, looks better than the V3. Another neat thing is the blue light that lights up when the phone rings or when the phone is charging. The light is located at the front of the phone, at the bottem. If you look at the images, you'll see a small bar at the bottem (Not the very bottem). It's only anoying when you're trying to sleep while the phone is in your room charging.

Hope this review helped ^_^.
