Customer Reviews

Show me a better phone
This is my second Razr. The first was a V3xx. I didn't think it was possible to improve on the V3xx, but this is the phone. I've owned everything from sliders to flips from several makers. The Razr V9 is a beautiful phone with exceptional sound clarity and a menu that is so intuitive that most will have it mastered quickly. Mine ia a beautiful mahogoany color. There just is no better phone out there.

I Love This Phone!!
This is my 4th Motorola phone and I LOVE it. I don't generally espouse such affection for my electronic toys and gadgets, but the phone really does deserve high praise IMHO. The quality and asthetics are great (although, I would have preferred slightly more contrast of color in the face) and it has enough features to make it a useful device without the bulk of a smartphone. Obviously, BlueTooth stereo rocks (no pun intended) but you WILL need BT headphones because there isn't a headset jack. It's unlocked, so you'll have to do a bit of research and tinkering for web settings and MMS, but once done, $15/mo through AT&T gets unlimited web access with video from news, sports, and entertainment channels. You can also view YouTube videos. Download Yahoo Go! and Opera Mini (both are free) and you've got a GREAT litte device that gives you internet access and information at 3G speed to pass idle bits of time, but is still primarily a slim and sexy phone that fits discreetly into your pocket or purse.

Unpleasant Surprises
The Razr2 is really a good phone, but buying an unlocked one is not such a great idea. Of course, none of the service providers have had them for several years - the flip phone is a vanishing item.

Amazon sells this one through HassleFree, which is anything but. Mine came from Australia, programed for the main service provider there, Telstra. Setting it up for a U.S. provider requires some work. For instance, when you try to dial your voice mail, it will attempt to contact a voicemail box in Australia. It took a trip to an ATT store to get this changed.

Also, the phone always shows a "new voice mail" icon when none is there. Further, after a voice mail is left, it is always followed by a text message showing a few strange symbols. ATT tech service was very good, but told me this is an electronic quirk that can't be remedied. Due to the differences in Telstra and ATT phone programming.

The seller puts difficult limitations on a return for refund, i.e. No more than 30 minutes talk time. It takes longer than that to determine if the phone even works.

I can use the phone as a backup, but if do-overs were possible, would find a used phone that came from a U.S. provider.

I would not recommend any unlocked phone, unless you know where it comes from.
