One of the things I loved about my old cellphone was the fact that I could use it to check e-mail and also to take pictures and post them to the web. But the camera’s poor image quality and the text-only WAP browsing experience left a lot to be desired so I decided it was time to look into upgrading. After poking around doing feature comparisons for awhile, I was having trouble deciding between a few different models. Trouble was – my old phone is also quite stylish and I couldn’t seem to find the equivalent elegance in a full-featured phone. And then I saw that Motorola had suddenly caught on and released a PINK version of the RAZR V3. Brilliant! I wont bore you with the whole list of features, but I will say that the RAZR V3 is pretty amazing. The camera quality is much better than my old Sony Ericsson t610. The internal camera even has a 4x digital zoom, and it also takes videos. Stored photos can be arranged in slideshow-like albums, which is a nice feature. The onboard graphics are much fancier, and the browser supports some web graphic elements too, which is helpful. Plus it supports a lot of games and ringtones that my old handset wouldn’t handle. (Ms. PacMan, anyone??) The tradeoff for all of the fancy graphics is a slower browsing experience. And the iTAP predictable text entry is trickier to use than the t9 system on my old phone. But the fact that I can browse the photos I upload to flickr and other photo hosting sites makes up for a lot. Oh yeah, and I can make phone calls with it too!
