The best flip phone
I bought this to replace my wife's Sony slider. She really loved her RAZR and never warmed up to the slider. I did a ton of research and this phone has great reviews from everyone. I initiall ordered it from Cellular Blowout. What a nightmare. The order was cancelled, thank God. I wised up and ordered through Amazon. Fast and dependable as always.

This phone comes from Orange in the UK not Motorola
The phone I was sent, is not an international sim lock free Motorola V8, but a Motorola V8 from the telephone provider Orange in the UK with a UK power adapter !

The best flip phone, May 3, 2008
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I bought this to replace my wife's Sony slider. She really loved her RAZR and never warmed up to the slider. I did a ton of research and this phone has great reviews from everyone. I initiall ordered it from Cellular Blowout. What a nightmare. The order was cancelled, thank God. I wised up and ordered through Amazon. Fast and dependable as always.
The phone came in an impressive package. We slid in the AT&T sim card and it worked instantly. Not all the contacts moved over, but not a big deal. Paired with bluetooth effortlessly. The call quality is top notch. A lot more bells and whistles but my wife will never use them.
The bottom line. Same great RAZR. Much better built quality. Improved sound. 2 giant screens. You cannot go wrong with this phone. You get what you paid for.

Motorola Razr2 V8: An awesome phone, April 25, 2008
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Well I'll keep it short and simple.. if you check out Motorola's website for this phone, you get a pretty good idea of the kind of phone you're getting.
In my case I upgraded from a V3i to this V8. I can only say it's sturdier, has a way faster menu navigation, louder sound and a sleek design.
It seems to me slightly bigger than the v3 and it's just slightly smaller and thinner than the trendy iPhone. However.. when opened up it's mermerizing.
I don't want to spoil your customer experience, so I'll just say... you'll love it the minute you get it, even the original box and packing will impress you.
If you like flip phones... you're gonna love this baby.

This phone comes from Orange in the UK not Motorola, October 28, 2009
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
The phone I was sent, is not an international sim lock free Motorola V8, but a Motorola V8 from the telephone provider Orange in the UK with a UK power adapter ! It has probable been 'unlocked by the seller' It has an Orange back plate on the phone and an Orange operating system. It cannot connect to the internet, as it always wants to go via Orange UK. For the price I paid, I fee ripped off. This information was not disclosed in the Amazon advertisement for the phone. If it was, I would not have bought it.

Good phone, exactly as described by the review, March 4, 2009
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Some people need to learn to read the review on the website they're buying their products from. Apparently a few reviewers went to the Motorola website and just assumed that everything listed on the spec page would be included with the phone sold from this site.
The review clearly states it comes with 512MB of NON-upgradable memory. It clearly states there is NO SD or MicroSD expansion slot. It doesn't mention a touchscreen.
This phone does everything the review states. It's over $80 less than one bought directly from Motorola and you'd think people would understand why that is.
We buy these phones because we don't want to be tied to long-term contracts. This in turn means some of the phones more advanced or even desirable features will be missing. The phone is capable of 2GB of storage, but only if you buy one directly from a carrier like AT&T. The benefits of doing so include getting more memory and few extra features, the drawback is you will be tied to a 2 or 3 year contract, with the full price of the phone (usually inflated to several times the actual retail cost) due if you decide to break it.
There are three choices. First you can pay the full retail price for the phone and still only have the features listed here, the memory listed here (512MB), but you'll get an English manual and maybe a free USB cable.
Secondly, chain yourself to a long term contract with penalty clauses for leaving early, but you'll probably end up with a phone that has more memory. If you're using a phone as media player, this may well be your best choice as long as you know there are far superior alternatives.
Finally if you only intend to use the phone as a phone with perhaps email, texting, photos and few other things thrown in, don't want to tie yourself to a contract and you're happy downloading a pdf copy of the manual from Motorola.. then you get the cheapest version, but also the version with the least available features activated.

Great Phone..., April 8, 2008
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
The phone arrived alot quicker than I expected so that was a bonus. I love the phone itself, however it is quite hard to keep clean...gets really greasy every time you use it. The other problem was that the operator manual was not in English at all...and the disk is not very user friendly. I'm having to learn things the hard way but am happy overall with the phone.

Please stay away....., July 12, 2010
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I got the first one, No signal. Second one No signal.
I doubt the phone is not from Moto, its just says Moto, the build quality is so worst.
As long as you sty away from all the Non warranty products U R SAFE.

OK phone, September 10, 2008
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Not bad overall, but expected more from a motorola razr.
Not exactly user friendly. Setting is not very convient. Needed a few too many clicks to get to where you would want or what you want to do. You can change the shortcut keys on the keypad, but very limited options.
No noise reduction, unless I haven't find it yet, but it doesn't seems like it's there. It will pick up every sound from the back ground: wind, other people conversation...
And its headphone is the special one that you have to hook up to its USB port which I can't easily hook up to my car or any other headphone. But the USB port headphone does come with the package.

This one is not 2gb, February 1, 2008
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Beware!!
It does not specify if its 2gb or 512mb, I bought thinking it is 2gb and got a 512mb, though I really don't care, some people do.

Not as described, June 5, 2008
This review is from: Motorola RAZR2 V8 Unlocked Phone with 2 MP Camera, and MP3/Video Player--International Version with No Warranty (Dark Pearl Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I bought this off here about a week ago, the phone was brand new no problems so far except, the battery lasts maybe 8 hours at a time ( not on the phone but maybe 30 minutes of the 8 hours, and maybe 200 texts.) the phone seems to be working good and is just about like my old us cellular razor 2. the phone did come unlocked like described, i have both an att and t mobile sim cards and they both work no problems. there is also no memory card slot as described. ive looked this phone inside out top to bottom no memory card slot. took a good while on the phone with att to get my internet and mms settings set right in able for anything that uses data to work. it came pre-programed with like 30 cell phone company software..weird! but all in all good phone and good buy. you should change your product description.
thanks,
Carla Herbst
