Rating  - WOWSER - this is a gem
I came from a phone that was just a phone - no bells and whistles. THEN, I got this phone as a result of the great price at Amazon.
I haven't been as impressed with a piece of technology since my first Apple IIe. It is a marvel: the camera is fun to use, we now instant message (2 old married folks acting like kids (like), send email, surf the web on our phone (who woulda thought) and generally call and receive calls with a clarity that rivals or exceeds our land line.
I couldn't be happier with this product.
A few comments on the previous reviews:
1. Have not seen battery use as a problem but I do not spend 24 hours each day with the phone in my ear or texting incessantly.
2. I have no complaints about the hinge on the cover. But, if you flip your phone open with flair and a flick of your wrist each time and expect it to last over time, it could break. Just treat it with respect and it will last.
3. Sound quality is excellent. Each call I make, someone comments on the clarity.
4. Camera is very good - day or night. I have taken pictures of my black dog in twilight and my wife is using that as her wallpaper. Very cool, very good detail. It has multiple settings so I believe someone's problem with green pictures is due to their being on the "green picture" setting. Don't know why anyone wants their subjects to all appear as Kermit the Frog, but that is another story.
5. Battery cover hasn't fallen off.
6. No problem with the micro SD card behind the battery. I suppose if you use 2 GB of storage each day it would be a pain. If you do that, maybe you should consider buying a small digital camera for your shirt pocket or purse.
7. Plenty of aftermarket products available at very reasonable prices either on Amazon or by searching for "Razr V9" in your favorite search engine. Just be careful about the V9 and V9M differences. Some products that work for the V9M don't work with the V9.
8. Had some delivery issues between AT&T and Amazon. I must say that they were 80% AT&T and 20% Amazon. But, all ended well when the phones were received.
Just love it, really, really do.
Rating - Nice phone and great AT&T service
I have had the phone for 5 months. It's really a solid built metal phone. It is slightly heavier than the average phone and just feels like you got your moneys worth unlike some of these plastic junk phones. I only use the phone for talking (no internet or games) so I can not comment on that aspect of it. The sound quality is top notch. The camera is ok for a phone but do not expect to take nice printable photos and there is no flash. Get a real camera for that. MP3 playback is surprisingly clear and loud! Not bad for a phone. It supports Micro SD cards. The phone is slimmer than the original RAZR and it fits in my jean pockets perfect. This is my favorite phone so far and its cool looking. Some people wine about the physical hinge point but I don't understand it. The phone is built well and unless you use it to hammer nails it should easily last for the 2 yr contract.
Cons:
-It shows finger prints easily everywhere.
-It has a Micro USB (not Mini USB) so it will not use a standard USB cable unless you use the included adapter.
-The charging port has a annoying cover on it. You have to remove it everytime you want to charge or link to a PC.
I had one problem with the phone. The receiver ear speaker somehow failed after 5 months. From what I have read this is not common at all. I called AT&T and they sent me a new phone under warranty within 3 days. I sent my old phone back after I got the new one. GREAT service so far and AT&T really went the extra mile to keep me happy!
Rating  - Terrible customer service at Amazon
I bought the full family plan and this phone ("in stock and ready to ship") and after repeated emails to Amazon got a rep to call me back, 15 minutes on hold (the regular don't call us, we'll call you Amazon way of doing business), and I was informed 10 days later that the phone was not in stock, and that it may take another month or 6 weeks to get it. I could not switch to another phone either, as changing the order is not something Amazon can do. No other option but cancel everything and go somewhere else. Weeks lost...
Rating - Greatly enhance razr
I have been using the original razr since its first release and it was still proving to be a dependable phone. Decided to finally upgrade and went with the razr2. Not disappointed at all. I do not use the phone to surf the net. Surfing the net on a 2 inch screen is not my idea of fun. The few times I have surfed the net the 3g did live up to the hype.
I text very little as well. I just want a phone with a decent camera that can keep up with appointments. This does all that very well.
The camera is much nicer than the razr. High quality pics considering it is from a phone after all.
Popped in a 2gb micro sd and loaded some songs. The built in music player is easy to use.
It does come with an adapter that allows you to use your razr car charger and wall charger for the razr2.
The $30+ software motorola sells to sync the phones contacts and edit pics and music and appointments can be purchased on ebay or $5. Yes is works just fine.
It feels solid in your hand too.
I like the vibrating side buttons letting you know you actually did push the button.
Rating - Poorly constructed piece of junk
Features on the phone work ok, though i can't use half of them, as I wasn't informed that it is not Mac compatable. The hinge broke after 6 months and neither AT&T nor Motorola will cover it siting that it's "physical damage" I did not drop or mistreat the phone, it was just very cheaply made. It doesn't matter how many features it has if it breaks after 6 months. (At&T would not insure it. wonder why? ) I will never buy another Motorola phone and may change my AT&T carrier.
