Motorola RAZR 2 Hands on!

General

Well look what we finally got our hands on! The Motorola RAZR 2 in all it’s shiny, JUIX glory. The particular model we are covering is the V8 which features quad band GSM/EDGE and is a little thinner than it’s V9/V9M brethren. In addition to the countless upgrades over the original RAZR, (did you even have to ask?) the updated model truly looks like something you want to rock with! The whole "oh look its a touch screen on the outside flip" thing is a little incorrect because only the lower portion is usable. Also the touch haptic "feedback" is merely the phone, how can I say this…vibrating when you touch it? Insert endless jokes here. The now standard 2 megapixel shooter does the job, and the speakers sound really clear even displaying some pretty good low end reproduction. I might be wrong about this, but it looks like the web browser is a custom version of Opera, and it does a great job at displaying web pages. Do you have the hunger for more? No problemo, just follow the magic rabbit below to the official gallery!

    I hope this RAZR has a better display that “all” the others. One you can read outdoors.

    How about the battery life? With those two monstrous displays and the loaded feature set, it seems like it would need a pretty beefy one to not be a disappointment.

  • JJLO

    If a phone does not have at least 4 hours worth of battery life then it is not worth having these days.

    What else are you guys going to get your hands on this week? You have every new phone planned to be launched in the next 6-12 months. INSANE

    After ordering a Razr maxx Ve from Verizon, and having to return it because the (video) e-mail feature was broken, I watched a video on cnet about the Razr2 V9m. When I asked Motorola.com/us (Razr2 on homepage) some questions about the phone, and when it was coming out, they said the US office didn’t have any info on the phone, and it’s not in the US. Is this true? I mean, this is the company saying this? Why wouldn’t the company (US office) know about the phone? Aren’t the designers in the US? It’s as if none of the good Moto phones come out in the US (V3x, Razr2)…and if it’s not coming out in the US, why is it on the homepage on the Moto US site? I feel like saying the old (something like this) line to Moto, from Wonka — How could you do this? You get a boys hopes up, and then crush them down into a million pieces. You’re an inhuman monster.

    yea at&t told me when i called them that they have never heard of that phone, and i was kinda confused, how would they not know when a phone is supposed to come out to them late summer? i think their idiots.

  • Steven

    Hey team, any info on which version AT&T will get? Will they have only the V9, or the V8 as well? I know that the V9 is supposed to have Synergy, while the V8 is rocking JUIX (which I hear is much better). And how about color choices? Any info is appreciated, and keep up the good work.

  • dani
