Razr Shrp!
Friday, January 07, 2005
It arrived! My fab new Motorola V3 Razr arrived yesterday and it was well worth the wait.
Orange have bundled the phone direct from Motorola with it's swish aluminium capsule box which houses a number of goodies including a cover, belt clip, hands free kit, USB cable, software and other bits and pieces :)
The best item in the box has to be the phone though! It's a slim line aluminium box of loveliness!
Thankfully the Motorola menu system is very similar to that of my old Sony Ericsson so I found it easy to use, it's very intuitive. The reception is great and the sound is crystal clear. When the phone is open I think it is the perfect size from ear to mouth and as the microphone protrudes the base of the handset it's also visible when you use it.
I have a gripe with polyphonic and real tone phones as I don't think they are loud enough but this phone packs a punch - for such a small unit it is very loud. The loudspeaker is nice and crisp too. The vibrate features are also customisable so you can actually feel it go off in your pocket using a series of different pulses.
All the usual bits and pieces are included with the phone such as a camera, a media section etc but I love the fact that on such a small phone Motorola have managed to add two full colour screens.
The "laser etched" keypad does take a little getting used to but once you do you can skim your fingers around the plate with ease.
I was a little worried about the phone being so slim as some cases can be very flimsy - thankfully this is not the case with the V3 as it is completely aluminium. The phone does stay cold to the touch too which is a little odd!
The 8Mb of memory is shared between all the functions. I thought all the included tones, mp3's and videos would fill it up but I still have 5 Mb to spare! This means the amount of information I can store in my phone book is limitless (this uses the same memory)!
The Razr really is a very sexy piece of kit and I am very happy to have changed my handset. I am also very happy to have switched to Orange as I experienced no set-up problems, texts and mms messages are sent immediately and the customer service department seem to know what they are talking about. It all seems a world away from O2!
Thanks to John Swords for the heads up - thankfully my V3 doesn't have this idiosyncrasy!)
The Plymouth Albion Rugby Club calendar arrived today too - just have to find a wall strong enough to hold up this collection of masculinity and brawn :)
This chunky hunk is James Denton and he plays Mike Delfino in the fabulous series Desperate Housewives - he can check out my plumbing anytime!
