Customer Reviews
Excellent Phone!
I bought this phone because the design and the sound quality. Before purchasing this phone, I used to have Motorola L7 SLVR which I was very dissapointed with the sound quality. SLVR looked good but KRZR is much better. And obviously KRZR is superior than RAZR.
Pros:
- Excellent Voice quality for incoming and outgoing calls.
- Excellent battery life.
- Excellent mp3 stereo sound.
- Excellent pictures.
- Excellent design. It's an eye candy.
- Easily obtained from amazon.com or walmart retail store for only $99 with new or upgrade service plan.
- You can check email from Yahoo or Hotmail for free.
- Works with any bluetooth headset.
Cons:
- Only for people who have smaller fingers.
- Finger magnet. It's almost impossible not to have your fingerprints on the phone.
Awesome phone
This phone is incredible, and I'm so happy I bought it through Amazon...very good deal and smooth transaction! I definitely recommend getting this phone. Here's my run-down of it:
Pros:
Excellent voice quality
Excellent sound quality
Great reception...even in places that were "dead zones" with my other phones.
Very compact and oh so sexy sleek
Decent battery life (MUCH better than RAZR)
Easy to follow menu
Cons:
Front side is a fingerprint magnet from hell
Small screen
No warranty available with Cingular
Only a few backgrounds & ringtones to choose from without downloading your own
I also bought the data cable package through Amazon, and it worked beautifully from the first try.
Not what I expected...
After reading the numerous positive reviews for this phone, I purchased. Here are the main issues I have found with this phone: 1) The buttons are too small, particularly the main control button. You have to used the side of your fingers to ensure that you do not hit too buttons at the same time. And, believe me, I do not have very large hands. 2) If you have quite a few contacts in your phone, you will be irritated by the delay when you scroll down quickly to select a contact. You will notice that if you are not careful, you will dial the wrong contact due to the delay when scrolling and selecting quickly, so if this is you, be aware. 3) You must open the cover and look inside to see if you have missed a call or have a message. VERY INCONVENIENT!! There is no indication to show this on the top screen, only the inside screen. 4) On occasion, the display on the outside of the phone stops working entirely. What you just need to do is power the phone down and they back up again. Not optimal, and I probably just got a bad phone, but I am just waiting for the situation to get more frequent, so I can then deal with the likely nightmare of having to get a replacement phone from Motorola. NOTE: I have no personal vendetta against Motorola, but wanted to provide some real feedback rather than all just rosey stuff I bought into before purchasing.
