ProductCritic: Motorola RAZR2 V9m Reviews

ConnectReviews (90)

Call quality was excellent and both the internal volume and speakerphone was plenty loud for us. Talk time was above the rated time of approx. 3 hours, and instead around 4 hours.

In short, the Motorola RAZR2 V9m is a fantastic phone. It has a great feature list, good looks, and a very solid build quality that should stand up to a fair amount of abuse. It might not be the cutting edge device that the original RAZR V3 was in its time, but I think the V9m is probably more worthy of your purchasing dollars than the original.

Motorola have thankfully seen the light and realised that it’ll take more than interminable colour options to keep its range fresh; what they’ve given us instead is an attractive, capable handset that, while not attracting as many glances as the V3 first did, certainly didn’t make us ashamed to carry.

In a Razr-weary world, the Motorola Razr2 V9m surpassed our expectations by offering a fresh and dynamic new approach to the Razr line. Video performance was below par but the phone succeeded on other fronts.

Fast, responsive interface. Lets you read text messages on outside screen. Music player supports both WMA and AAC.

Phone Scoop (75)

The RAZR2 is still just a RAZR. Yes, it has a slightly sexier body and a new external display with fancy touch sensitive areas, but little else has changed.

Still, the RAZR2 feels like a good start, and if there is one thing we can be sure of, there will be more of them. Many, many more.

The RAZR2 V9m for Verizon Wireless is a worthy successor to the original because of its sexy design and excellent call quality. But the bland interface and lack of music multitasking make this version less compelling than the ones available from AT&T and Sprint.

Unfortunately, its function does not follow its breathtaking form. This ultra slim, ultra sleek phone does a great job at appealing to the fashion conscious crowd, but it fails to deliver as a stable phone for the rest of us. For now the RAZR2 is full of software glitches, quirks and all around frustration that make using the phone a maddening experience.
