I've had the Motorola Black RAZR for three months now and it is a great phone. I had researched it for a while and I'm very happy with it. It is truly just a cool phone that provides excellent functionality and call quality. You better be prepared to read the directions because it is complicated at times and you'll want to take advantage of most if not all of what this phone can do. And you must go for the Motorola H500 blue tooth ear piece. It takes 30 seconds to pair up the first time and you won't regret it, it's that good. It's nice having the phone that everyone wants. Only mystery is battery life of course. Listed @ 290 hours for stand by and 430 minutes for talk time, I think it falls short. I'm recharging about every 4 days but using it a lot so the line is blurred between pure stand by and talk time. My call quality is great and the accessories available on E-Bay will make your head spin. Be sure to check them all out.I haven't experienced the problems that a lot of people have mentioned in their reviews. I'm sure there are a few drawbacks I haven't had to deal with yet but I've thoroughly enjoyed using the phone especially the blue tooth that has been nothing but spectacular. Besides it's a cool phone and EVRYONE notices when you pull out a RAZR and isn't that what cell phones are all about?
