I have had this phone for about 6 years now and im soon to get a new phone, and I will really miss it! It has lasted without a problem even now I just want a more modern phone. Its a shame it didnt take memory cards though. Or hold MP3 music files I recommend this phone if you want a phone that is really easy to use.

The V3 is IMHO the best phone I have ever had. I bought mine new and unlocked at Lidl. Unlike many phones this one will not waste your money by redialling, surfing or voice-mailing from your pocket. Unfortunately the V3 was stolen from my car whilst I was having a catnap. Main drawback with the phone is that it is hopeless if it gets wet. I know this because I dropped mine in my boat bilge (the phone fell out of my shirt pocket when I bent down). Fortunately it was only rainwater but even though I pulled out the phone in a split second and dried it with a towel it crackled for over a day. Anyway after having had several other newer phones which I haven't liked I'm going back to a V3 (NOT the V3i whose "large external screen" is easily broken - guess how I know?) The V3 can however be waterproofed temporarily with a prophylactic. I did this when crossing The Solent in a small inflatable. The sea was a bit choppy that day and it was a very wet crossing. As yet I ha ve not found the perfect phone but the V3 comes close. Unfortunately now that just about everyone has standardised on mini USB the goalposts are being moved again to Micro-USB, duh! Mini-USB for ever I say!

I've owned four V3s and three of them are still in use. This a mobile phone not a teeenagers Hi-fi station. It makes calls, sends texts with a choice not only of predictive but two languages ready to go. Mine is on English English and French French and the predictive keeps me on my toes especially with two and three letter words. The phone fits in the tiniest pockets of my gilets, has a short lanyard which allows me to hook it onto rings on my clothing so I can't drop it or lose it. It is very funny about batteries and when one stops recharging a replacement can be �30. But in six years, we have only bought three replacement batteries one of them a genuine motorola which always lasts the longest and takes the best charge. The V3 has to be good because a. Motorola discontinued it b. replacements cost about �60 on the open market, or �40 for stolen ones.

I have had a Motorola V3 for about 4 years, and recently thought it was time to upgrade to newer technology - so I purchased a Nokia...and wished I hadn't! I had become used to the user-friendly Motorola, and wanted it back - and I still have it. I would recommend this mobile to anyone wanting a simple, no frills, user-friendly phone - and there is still a market for such phones in 2010.

Well... I have had this phone for lemmme think... 3 years now and to be honest, it's alright (lasts a long time anyway) the day i got it, i managed to drop it down my stairs and it didnt even have a chip but when I dropped it on a concrete floor, it got a small chip, but it still worked fine. The memory is rubbish tho, I have a total of 6 mp3 things that last a measly 15 seconds long each and i cant bluetooth any more! It lets you have 20 msgs before it tells you that your inbox is full and I can have say, 20 contacts on my sim card and then it starts saving them to the phone. Plus, there is no place for a memory card so you cant get more mmry. The camera is bad and so is the video. The voice recorder lets you record for a minute and no longer. yay. The only reason i got it~ wait for my pathetic excuse~ was because all my friends had one. but I still like it. I recomend not to bother, buy 1 of the more recent phones like the LG Cookie. I haven't had the LG cookie yet b ut my birthday is coming up soon so hopefully...

I've had this phone for about 3 or 4 years now and it is only recently that it is beginning to slow down (i.e. texts don't always get sent when it tells me they have) which I think is rather impressive. Unfortunately I will have to find a new phone now, but I loved this model a lot, battery life was good, loved how slim it was and the key pad, and over the years it has withstood me dropping it countless times. The only flaw I would say is the camera and video, not great quality. If you want a nice basic phone that is pretty hardy, get this.

I think the V3 is a design classic. It looks and feels great. Sadly, not long after the warranty ran out, mine developed a terminal fault. The battery discharges after ony a few hours (even if it was switched off!) I replaced the battery - not cheap at �20 - and it still runs out spectacularly fast. Basically a mobile with a few hours battery life is nort worth having, so I'm reluctantly going to have to lob it and get something else. Maybe I just got a duff one. :(

I had a V3 and lost it. I tried many others since then. But I am afraid to have to say that I never had a phone that was so clear anywhere you go. The signal is so clear that you never ever hear the noise. Secondly it needs the simplest steps to call or sms anyone. And that is what you primarily buy a mobile phone for. Thirdly the keyboard always works first time. Anyway it is extremely easy and reliable. Camera and music and all the rest of it, buy the V3i. Better still buy one of many others that have loads of staff - more often than not - they are jack of all trades, masters of none.

I bought my V3 at Lidl, must be a year or two ago now. Compared to my old second-hand Mars-bar style phones with Nicad batteries that needed charging every day it is in a completely different league. It does everything I want but has one major drawback, it is not splashproof/waterproof. (I discovered this when I bent down to remove leaves from the bilge of my boat). The phone fell out of my shirt pocket and landed in the water. Luckily just rainwater. Although I grabbed up the phone in a split second and dried it with a towel the phone became crackly and had to be dried out with a dehumidifier. I have been looking for a waterproof replacement for this phone but most of the "sportsmens phones" or "builders phones" look like something Fred Flintstone would use and aren't quad band etc.

I own a V3. It is rubbish! within a month it was faulty and the web site I bought it from refused to replace the handset saying it was out of warranty... this was due to the fact that I sent two emails off regarding the problems with the phone to the technical department and then followed this by a phone call. I am now looking for a new phone and would recommend you do the same if you are seriously considering buying this phone. As it happens my son also had problems (the same sort.. turning itself off (after a full charge), low or no battery after being charged (using different chargers). The battery has been replaced so it is a handset fault rather than a charger or battery fault. I would not consider buying another motorola. It looks like I have to give this phone a star whether I want to or not.. I give this - 10.

I bought my V3 second hand about three years ago and it's still going strong. The camera is pretty poor (especially when compared to new phones) but then I just wanted it because it was slim, light and well made. The battery life isn't very good and obviously after 4 years of use is getting worse. But all in all for a basic, reasonably good looking and cheap phone you can't go wrong with one of these.

I had this phone for 3 years and loved it soo much (i have unfortunatly lost it now :() it was brilliant, and the only time it broke, was fixed in a matter of days (it kept turning its self off even thought it was fully charged) I loved it loads, it looked cool, sounded cool, was suoer slim and was easy to use. Would deffinaley reccomend to anyone. Oh, when it broke, i put it in for repair and it came back with a video camera on it :D Bonus!!

at first i thought the phone was fantastic! - it looked fab and everything but after a while of using it it became apparent that its not all its cracked up to be. the camera on mine is a bit dodgy. although it is good that it has both video recorder and camera. it hasnt got enough memory i can only just store one song but then i can only take about 10 pictures or 4/5 videos. once and i still dont know why this happened but none of the buttons worked and volume control - which i couldnt change - kept coming up and the noise it makes when you press one of the side buttons kept playing - it was late at night and really annoyed my friends. in the end i had to take the battery out. i managed to fix it but i dont know how. but i like the look of the phone even though it scratches easily. this phone is very average. nothing spectacular about it what so ever ...

This was my first mobile phone. My Dad used it but as he got another phone on contract, he gave it to me. I thought it would be really good at first, but it wasn't!! Quite dissapointing as the phone does not have MP3 player, camera quality is poor, doesn't have video recorder, doesn't have good games!! This piece of junk definately can't keep an 11 year old like me entertained!! The battery life is poor aswell! Wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone who wants a phone with good features. Would only recommend to those who just want a simple phone. My first and worst phone!!!! I really want another one and get rid of this rubbish!!

I just bought one, and I must say, I do really like it. yea, sure, the internal memory isn't too big, but then, for mp3's I have a PSP and a mp3 player already (not to mention there is plenty of space in purse's anyway ) I replaced a very basic Nokia phone with this one, so either way it was a step up, but now I have what I find to be, the best looking phone made so far :)

i Had This Phone Before, Now i Have Samsungs, i Got Up To Three VERY SMALL Songs On It At a Time, Like; 1mb, 2mb, 1mb, And Then about 10 Pictures. i Tried To Upload Some Onto The Computer But The Usb Connection Didn't Work. If You Want a Phone That Will Last And Will Call And Text Then This Is a Good Phone, Very Hardy, But Scratches Easily, i Dropped It a Countless Number Of Times, i Chucked It Aswell, And It Still Worked. Although My Friend Had The Pink Version And It Suddenly Stopped Working Due To a Software Problem. Has a Big Screen, The Buttons Aren't Very Easy To Press As They're Flat, But Are Very Big. Very Slim Phone, Looks Better Than It Actually Is. Didn't Really Like This Phone, Just Didn't Get On With It, Had It For a Few Months And Got Rid Of It. Now Have a Samsung E840 But I'm Getting a New Samsung, Hopefully U600. For Me, Samsungs Are Definately The Better Make And i Don't Plan On Going Back To Motorola. But As i Said, If You Want a Phone That Calls, Texts And Looks Impressive Then This Is Good.

This phone takes better pictures than most phones with 2MP cameras.It doesn't take 1280x1024 or more , just 640x480 but they look very clear and very sharp and not deformed.If u want more music or stuff, buy a media player(ipod touch rullz). It is a great phone with aluminium body, very well made.It's not stupid proof so don't sit on it or trow it out the window or drive ur car over it... it won't make it.It it falls from your hand, it will survive and no pieces(like back cover and battery) will fly around like nokia.Take care of it and it a very good phone.Still is after 4 years from it release.Way better then its price competitors these days.

It is May 2008 and i am fed up with new phones with worthless features that i dont need. So i decided to buy something that a)was affordable b)good looking c)good reviews I decided to go for V3 Razr. I had trouble finding it as it has been discontinued in many places. Finally i managed to get a brand new black one. Let me tell you this phone is the best phone for its value. It is far better than many of the modern rubbish that is out there with thousands of pointless features and at ridiculously high prices. The phone looks good, user friendly (Unlike SE rubbish), build quality and all for �50. So for no nonsense mobile phone users who want something practical and stylish i recommend this phone.

THIS PHONE COMPLETLY SUCKS! DO NOT BUY IT! Even though it looks really cool amd stuff, it is really bad! It does not have enough memory to hold one 3 minute song. I gave my one away and am using Sony Ericsson S700i. Yes, it is old, but I love it. So do not buy this phone.

I got this phone, and at first it seemed great. But the memory is appauling! It lets you have almost no contacts, it can't hold more than 1 SONG. And it breaks easily. If you just want a simple phone, not to be used much then this is for you, but if you want to store songs, pictures ect. Go for somthing else.
