Subject: Hello Moto…
Ahoy there!
Time check: it’s almost quarter to 3
(hehehehe, I just don’t know how to have a nice introduction for my post, huh)
Ok. It’s been weeks now… well, it’s nothing special…
Just got a new Motorola RAZR V3 for myself
========================================================================================================================================================================================
========================================================================================================================================================================================
I was quite happy when I bought this phone. I mean… yeah, I was getting bored on my old phone (Sony Ericsson T610) and I think the V3 was great (and good looking). But, I just feel it’s very unpractical for me to have 2 phones right now… and I can’t dispose my old phone because of its many scratches (and it has a lot of sentimental value).
What the fu*k am I saying? I’m supposed to brag this phone to you guys! Hehehehe really, I love it!!!
Ok, and now… I’m posting a review for this phone.
Pros:
Construction/Design
========================================================================================================================================================================================
========================================================================================================================================================================================
The phone is sleek, sexy and feels really nice in your hands. The color on the phone won’t rub off or fade because it has no colors to fade (unless you get the black one), it’s aluminum. The number pad has huge buttons so even those with big fingers won’t have a problem. The menus and design of the phone is intuitive, it simply takes a little getting used to, once you are, its efficiency at its best. The phone does take a little bit more cleaning than others, since its aluminum - fingerprints and dirt will show rather easily. But a rub on your cotton shirt will fix that rather quickly. If you want it back to new, simply get something with no lint and a little ethanol (very little). The phone is a lot tougher than it looks - I’ve seen it thrown, crushed, sat on and it keeps on ticking.
Earpiece/Mouthpiece/Volume:
========================================================================================================================================================================================
========================================================================================================================================================================================
Sony Ericsson phones are nice, very nice but I think most people who’ve owned one, like me, will agree that they’re unusually ‘quiet’. They don’t ring loud and the earpiece volume is ridiculous. This phone doesn’t have that problem - it’s loud all over. The earpiece when turned all the way up has the person on the other end sounding like they’re shouting. The mouthpiece is just as clear. When this phone rings or alarms, you’ll hear it. The crystal clarity at which you can record sounds and audio, assures you that if the person on the other end has a reasonable cell phone - there’ll be no “huh? What? Didn’t hear you”, just news and occurring mid-conversation. When talking to someone with another Razr with a good cell connection, it’s as good if not better than a telephone conversation.
Features:
========================================================================================================================================================================================
========================================================================================================================================================================================
The phone isn’t lacking in features. It comes with a phonebook that allows you to view contacts by name or list. If you choose to view the phonebook by name then all numbers and email will merge into the contact with that name; this is typical of most cell phones. Under list, the numbers and emails are displayed separately in the phonebook. I like it that way, it’s more efficient. I’m able to look and hit send and call the contact, rather than looking for the contact, selecting the contact and looking again for the number I want to call. The phone also has a voice dial feature that’s nicer than most others I’ve used; it trains very easily and usually understands me every time. Rings/Alerts can be either sounds or mp3, which is pretty cool. The phones menu, as mentioned before is intuitive and easily operated. I got used to the menu within days. This leads me to the only disadvantage that I’ve found with the phone……..the space. It’s like showing you a 5 course meal but allowing you to pick a single entree. It’s got a GREAT camera (for a VGA), Ability to play Mp3s and record video and sound - but it comes with 5 megabytes of space. That roughly translates to a couple medium quality 30 second clips of MP3 sounds and very few high quality pictures. I can record video, but what’s the sense since a 10-20 second clip uses about 500kb of space. I wonder why they couldn’t have stuck some more memory in - considering the size of digital space nowadays, SD cards, XD cards…both about the size of a thumbnail. One could easily fit beside the sim card.
Alas, you’re doomed to work with 5 for as long as you own this phone, meaning so many compromises on your part pertaining to how to spend/save your memory/space.
Motorola RAZR V3 Features |
========================================================================================================================================================================================
========================================================================================================================================================================================
Cons:
- Keypad marks are left on screen after closed
- some ringtones, are like a stupid note, like taDa?
Who wants that???
- The screen gets dirty fast. I constantly rub marks off.
- Grease magnet
- No external memory; Small amount of Memory (7 MB at least)
- Software (can be slow, can be fast, can work great, can fail)
- Bluetooth feature is lame; only detectable within 60sec. (as far as I know)
Overall:
Personally, I don’t know why everyone hates the RAZR. I loved it. This phone was absolutely flawless. I would recommend it to anyone. But, if the V3i is coming out late this month, then wait. I think it was one of the best phones ever made. Although for me, it’s QUITE expensive (10,500 PHP in the market)
‘Til then

Lyrics: Linger
August 28th, 2006 by themarksyndromeproject
If you, if you could return
Dont let it burn, dont let it fade
Im sure Im not being rude
But its just your attitude
Its tearing me apart
Its ruining everything
And I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But Im in so deep
You know Im such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong
I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldnt be so confused
And I wouldnt feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
And Im in so deep
You know Im such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to. do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
And Im in so deep
You know Im such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
You know Im such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
