Motorola RAZR V3xx review
Network and connections
Motorola RAZR V3xx is the successor to the successful RAZR V3x model, a cell phone that is classified as Tri-Band and Dual Mode, meaning it is able to operate on three different GSM frequencies: 900, 1800 and 1900 Mhz, as well as on the high-speed UMTS network. These features guarantee compatibility and functionality across almost the entire globe. EDGE and GPRS connections are also available for data transfer. Bluetooth connectivity, on the other hand, allows the use of wireless peripherals and data exchange with other compatible cell phones or computers. A USB port is also available for synchronization with computers, usable via the appropriate cable.
Design and features
Motorola RAZR V3xx is classified as a "clamshell" phone, with a flip-open design. This type of design allows good protection of the display against impacts and scratches. It is a model with an integrated antenna, not very light but quite thin. The elegant lines enclose a black-colored body, with a decorated dragon that gives the RAZR V3xx an appealing tribal look. On the outer front part of the casing there is the secondary screen, while inside is the main screen, large and well-defined.
