Motorola V3XX Review
Phone rating: 
Review: January 2007. Updated June 2009.
The Motorola RAZR V3XX is the updated version of the RAZR
V3X. It's an ultra-slim and lightweight 3G handset that comes in
some funky designs (see photo on the left) and makes the V3X look fat
and flabby.
But the V3XX isn't just about looks. It has a surprise up its sleeves
- 3.5G technology! The V3XX introduces a new technology called HSDPA
(High Speed Download Packet Access) which enables data to be downloaded
at speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps - that's 10x faster than conventional 3G
- and has been dubbed 3.5G. This means that you can make maximum use
of 3G network services, such as high resolution video calling at 15
frames per second, super-fast music downloading and streaming and live
TV on your phone. The Motorola V3XX is the first UK handset to introduce
this new technology, but there will be more released during 2007.
The V3XX includes two cameras: a 1.3 megapixel camera for still photography,
and a VGA camera for video calling. This is a bit of a puzzle. The V3X
had a 2 megapixel camera, so Motorola have taken a step backwards here.
The camera really doesn't make the grade for a 3G phone costing as much
as this. It's the phone's biggest letdown. The video camera on the other
hand is excellent and supports high resolution (640 x 480 pixels) with
a frame rate of 15 frames per second. The main display supports 256K
colours and 240x320 resolution, which is the de facto standard
for this class of phone in 2007.
As you'd expect the V3XX has full support for music playing. The stereo
MP3 player supports the most common digital music formats (MP3, AAC
& AAC+) and you can plug in either a USB headset or a wireless stereo
Bluetooth headset (both optional extras). Sound quality is excellent.
MP3 ringtones are also supported, with 64-voice polyphonic sound. The
onboard memory is only 50 Mbytes, which is enough to store around 10
songs, but you can expand the memory using a microSD™ memory card.
No memory card is supplied with the phone, but you can buy these relatively
cheaply now, and the microSD™ format cards are available at up
to 2 Gbytes.
The battery life of the V3XX has been improved compared with the V3X,
although 3G phones are always challenged in this respect and never perform
as well as 2G handsets. Bluetooth and USB connectivity is supported,
and all the standard features that you'd expect from a modern phone
(MMS, email, web browser, etc) are present. Of course, it was released
in 2007 and soesn't have modern features such as GPS.
Features of the Motorola V3XX include:
- 3G video calling
- 1.3 megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom
- Video camera (640 x 480 pixels, 15 frames/second, MPEG4 format)
- Main display: 256,000 colours, 320 x 240 pixels (2.2 inches)
- External display: 64,000 colours
- Stereo MP3 player (MP3/AAC/AAC+ formats)
- MP3 ringtones
- Java games
- Messaging: SMS, EMS, MMS, Email (POP3, IMAP4,
SMTP)
- Phonebook (1,000 entries)
- Memory: 50 Mbytes plus microSD™ memory card slot (expandable
to 2 Gbytes)
- Connectivity: Bluetooth, mini-USB
- Fast downloads: HSDPA (3.6 Mbps), EDGE Class 10, GPRS Class 10
- WAP 2.0/xHTML web browser
- Vibration alert
- Size: 103 x 53 x 15mm
- Weight: 100g
- Talktime: 175 minutes (120 minutes when video calling)
- Battery standby: 305 hours

I didn't find anything wrong with the battery. I actually thought that
the battery life was pretty good. I dont use the multimedia features
of the phone so i cant really comment. Predictive text is excellent!
Does the job... even though the design is pretty dated, in my opinion
it still looks pretty good! However, my phone had blown an IC after
removing the battery without turning it off. My fault obviously, but
still, i found it to be a bit fragile. Saying this, i don't think that
i will but another Motorola.

I'm just a typical phone user. The Motorola V3xx has worked fine for
me. Only a few problems to report: I can confirm that the Battery Runs
down quickly if you use the MP3 player a lot. A few more problems happened
recently when I took a vacation to Middleboro, Maine near Martha's Vineyard.
I had the phone's alarm set for 7:00 AM but at 3:30 AM twice. Leaving
the phone on, this strange tone played for about 20 seconds and then
the phone shut itself down. the phone still alarmed at it's correct
time however. Once with airplane mode on and then airplane mode off.
I can't seem to duplicate the problem in my home area so I suspect it's
either 3G related or area related. My home network runs on EDGE. I came
upon this page using Google, still searching for similar issues. Overall
it's still a good phone.

All seems to work fine but very disappointing battery life. I do not

every other day even when simply on standby. I should've researched
the battery life before I purchased. Last Motorola I ever get. When
I actually use the phone to talk it needs recharging every day. Very

One major flaw with this phone makes me dock it two full stars: When
a ringer ID is used (a custom ring tone for, say, my wife), any text
messages I get from that person trigger that custom ringtone. In other
words, text messages from people with custom ringtones sound just like
phone calls and cause me to dive for the phone and say Hello? Hello???
a couple times before taking a look and seeing it's just a dumb text
message. I called AT&T about this. They said it's a feature. Thanks
a lot, guys.

The V3xx is a great move from it's older brothers (the older V3 models).
it has a great camera and and super fast and crips video recording.
i had this phone for 6 months and had practically no problems. one major
proble i have (can't blame the phone for this) is the bands, their european
and i'm in canada so it's a let down there. USA AND CANADA PPL NEED
850 and 1900 BANDS TO GET MAX PERFORMANCE IN YOUR COUNTRIES. i only
have the 1900, but surprisingly the phone works great in most places.
the receiver is really clear and loud. the speakerphone is loud even
for music, it's no boombox so don't expect to hear in a very noisy background
(put it close to ur ear and u'll hear well) one problem with the speakerphone
is that when it's on and u close the flip, u get disconnected from your
call. The phone is super fast,even for java programs there's barely
any waiting for anything, everything loads fast. one great advantage
about the phone is the ringtone HIGH PITCH IT'S LOUD!!!

V3xx is a beautiful phone, like all RAZR's. Sleek, elegant, and I love
the big keypad buttons. It FEELS expensive and like it's made to last.
Like all Razr's, it is an incredible voice phone. At the end, that is
the most important thing. Basic OS as delivered via AT&T is ok. The
adress book is brain-dead on arrival. Motorola could learn something
from LG here. My gripe? Often, you will have one contact with many different
numbers to contact them with--home phones, pagers, business numbers.
Sadly all RAZR's phonebooks are flat, one name to one number. So, what
happens is you have the same name listed numerous times in your phone
book. C'mon guys, you can do better. Nice music player, and bluetooth
stereo headset support is super. I just one-upped my IPod equipped wife
and son! Woohoo! I am told that a 2 GB micro SD expansion card is the
maximum size. Bottom line? Thasa lot of music folks. Far more than I
care to listen to in one setting. File system on phone is a bit rudimentary
as well. There isn't a way to create your own files--again, a surprise
on a high end phone. BTW. You can copy your iTunes and paste them into
your SD card and they run great. Nice. Like all MP3's? Don't expect
CD quality sound. Ain't gonna happen. The main screen is awesome. Makes
me sick to look at others now. Sweet! Lately? My V3xx freezes solid
when changing wallpaper. I haven't figured out why. Tech support at
AT&T/Cingular has no idea--and since this phone was offered as an upgrade/replacement
for a series of 3 V3 RAZR's, I can't get a replacement. So, anyway,
I have to litterally pull the battery out, re-install and then turn
the phone on to continue when this happens. This is my 4th RAZR (3 V3's
before it). I am careful with my handsets. Never dropped, no liquid
spills. Motorola seems to be having some serious quality control issues
with RAZR's. I heard more RAZR's were made last year than any other
cell phone. Perhaps I have just been unlucky and got the short end of
production line tolerances? My son's V3 RAZR? He's beat the heck out
of it and it has never faltered, hiccupped or done anything bad. Maybe
I should take a lesson from him...

Update on number 2 phone, alas, still the same issues with connecting
on 3G Broadband (HSDPA). The phone still locks up. I'm gonna try number
3 phone in a couple of days and see if third time lucky. I am beginning
to think that it is a flaw in the phone hardware, software or firmware.
Motorola reckon I am the first to report this issue, but I have found
several forums on the internet that suggest otherwise.

Brought the phone yesterday, and already getting it replaced tomorrow.
The main reason for purchasing it was for the 3G Broadband. When that
works its great, however in the last 24 hours the phone has locked up
on me at least 6 times when I was accessing the internet either via
3G or GPRS, Blue Tooth or USB. So so far not so good. I'll let you know
how number 2 goes.

This is my third Razr V3xx phone in 2 weeks. The display light will
not turn off consistently, so consequently when it decides not to go
off, it drains the battery. AT&T cannot help, and motorola cannot be
reached at the number I was given. I'm turning it in and not buying
Motorola, it has been the biggest pain.

I got this phone really cheap £100 from Norwich & I was very skeptical
after owning a v3x. but it has none of the problems my v3x had like
turning off for no reason or short term battery life, even leaveing
the bluetooth on for a long period didn't kill the battery. The only
problem I have found so far is that the fron screen sometimes stays
lit long after I have closed the phone, other times the light goes off
at the correct time set. Other than that the phone performs better than
most 2g phones & is definitely the best 3G phone I have owned. The signal
is superb, the battery life is better & everything seems to be tweaked
to improve performance. the only gripes I have is that it is a little
unbalanced when texting & the camara is poor compared with the V3x.
My phone is just the plane black case & it is a very unassuming phone
considering the features. & I have to say I would definitely recommend
it to anyone wanting to upgrade to 3G.

Got the phone as soon as it was launched on contract. Must admit i was
not sure i would get use to it but kept it anyway and i must say it
was the right decision. Plenty of features but the only downfall for
me was the battery life. By the end of my 12 months my battery would
give me about 20 minutes of talktime before it switched off. Using the
music player in the phone was a no-no for me as it would use battery
life. Took me ages to find an in car charger for it as the fittings
had changed from the previous models.

This is my second time writing. It's regarding MMS and GPRS usage. I
thought it was happened to my unit only. But since Owen Philips (see
below review) mentioned it. I might as well voice up mine. To use both
functions, I have to switch off and on my unit before using them. Be
it sending or receiving MMS, i would have to off and on my v3xx. Annoying
isn't it... Yea, this could be due to network operator (H3G). but in
2 different countries? Another plus point for v3xx, is its Lock application
function. This helps to prevent unwanted access/usage of applications
(messages, internet, settings, etc) from others who might try to read
your messages or adjusting your settings..

Phone looks fantatic, as do all the RAZR series. When working as specified,
teh HSPDA is blisteringly fast. However,the battery life on mine is
abysmal usually 20 hours on standby (without bluetooth enabled). If
I make or recive a call, 32 -40 minutes of talking will discahrge the
battery completely Phone also isnt good as picking up signals, especially
indoors, and seems to have a problem with MMS Messages. This could be
due to network operator (H3G). Camera is very poor - very blurred shots

Design-wise, V3xx is the IT phone for styling and flaunting around.
You can see it being used in many movies esp. US movies. Yup, it's amazing.
Well, let me make it simple by listing the good and the bad. Let's start
with the BAD news: Major FLAW, you CAN'T reject a call without opening
the flip, thus answering the call. Another major flaw, you can't resize
pictures for 'MMS-friendly' size. You'll be sending a very big MMS to
other party which might irritate them especially if they're not using
3G. You can't control the bringhtness of the puny little external screen.
Brightness level is in-sync with the internal screen's brightness control
though somewhat dimmer than the latter. No recurrence alarm option.
No notepad tool such as in the SonyEricssons. Can't create folders.
Can't rename mp3 files. You can't copy sound files wherever you wanted:
mp3 would go into Music folder and WAV and MID would ended up in Sounds
folders. So I ended up with my full mp3 songs mixed up with my editted
mp3 for ringtones. Opening the flip, the plastic edges made it looks
a little cheap. A metal finish would be great. The BIGGEST disappointment
is the battery life. Under normal usage, my BZ60 last s for 24 hours
before it started giving Low Batt alert. If I clock in more talk time
plus occasional use of camera, it would give you around 15 hours before
running out of juice. A stylish phone is pointless with no juice...
I got my V3xx from a friend with Planet 3 thingy. Maybe this Planet
3 package packed with low quality battery. I don't know... The Good
news: Being black, aluminium keypad, blue color numbers and lines, I'd
say it is one of the MOST stylish phones available on the planet. Big
screen with nice font and crisp display pleased my eyes. Very good picture
quality for a 1.3MP camera lens compared to some SE and Nokia with the
same pixel counts. Good reception with good earpiece, mic and loudspeaker.
The software has faster response compared to its predecessors. Verdict:
Big in style, small in function. Suitable for people who seek stylish
more than functions. I'd give 3 stars if not for the disgraced battery
life. Would not feel bad nor hesitate to switch to other phone, compared
to switching from my SE W550i to this V3xx.

I've upgraded from the V3 after looking at a bunch of the newer 3G phones
(K800i, Nokia 6288) and in the end decided stick with it. Its thin,
and has big buttons. That simple. I'm a big fingered 30 something business
user so I guess that suites me fine. I think motorola designed one good
phone that has one great feature - thinness - and they really haven't
moved on. If they updated the design and improved the interface this
would be a great phone. But don't get it if you want a camera phone
etc. Thanks for the reviews.

honestly, this phone isn't really that excellent.. of course, from the
looks of it, it's so stylish and elegant. but the features aren't really
that good. the camera's resolution is a bit low.. i can't use video
call with my friends because obviously, not all of them have this phone,
or rather a phone that enables video calling... about the 3.5g, of course
it's nice. but practicality suggests that this feature isn't a big deal
anymore because most of us would just download files from the internet
using a pc, and just transfer these to the phone using bluetooth or
usb cable... all in all, i think one can say that a phone is good if
its camera is more developed, and its design is a bit unique and different
from others, because one thing i have noticed about motorola phones
is that they have nearly same appearance despite of their difference
in features and unit... well, i like the motorokr e6 more than the v3xx...
why? bcoz of its touchscreen, a 2MP camera, and elegant design...

I hate the software for this phone. The main menu has 9 items to choose

their location! You can not push a button to get a list of missed calls
no matter how much you dig. All you get is a mix of all calls made,
received, and missed. No filter for missed. Getting details on a call
does not tell you if you called them or if they called you, so you can't
tell if you need to return a call or not.

had incorperated a 2 megapixel camera over the 1.3, but the camera is
actually quite good for 1.3 megapixels. I dont have any problems with
the phone whatsoever and unlike other Motorola;s this phone doesnt lag
at all. Highly Recommended--- I chose this over the LG Shine and im

Sick fone, got it on 3 with 75 mins and 500 texts, signal is amazing,
i didnt liek the menu but you change the skins and make te menu into
a list layout. Battery is much betetr than that of Samsungs, i can use
this for about 4 days. Camera is high quality considering its just a
1.3 mp. Very loud and clear ringtones. nice metallic look and feel to
it, doesnt leave any fingerprints. Well worth the money.

Totally satisfied with this phone! Big improvement on the V3 and V3i,
both of which I have owned, particularly so far as reception is concerned.
With both the previous models I was unable to get a reliable signal
in my living room. With the V3xx I have no problem at all. Also this
is a beautifully made phone with quality materials. It is very slightly
larger than the V3 but you would have to put them side by side to notice
the difference. Highly recommended!

The V3xx is a great looking phone with it's impressive features. the
only downside to it is it's reception it's extremely poor i lose signal
in places that the V3 would have full reception. Now that's dissapointing
if an older model can out do the newer model. I bought this phone becuz
i wanted something that was louder than the V3 and so it was louder
but it lost connection the network ever so often

This is by far the worst fone in the world. I got it 2 weeks ago first
day i charged it up and turn it on add 20 contacts and it says memory
full next day get a new one guess what after charging it i opened it
but then i can't close it it is jammed. Number three, charge it up open
it and the thing strats buzzing and won't stop. By this time i can tell
you i wasn't happy and three strikes and your out of here. I took it
back and they say because of your troble we will give you a free upgrade,
i agreed think that things can only get better but the can get a lot
worse. I charged up the new Motorola maxx and when i opened it the whole
top fell of i went back to the shop but they can't refund me because
it is misuse. Well i was stuck with this junk so i smashed it with a
hammer. What a great waste of $239 i should of just givien it the cancer
council. I am gonna stick with good old Nokias as for you motorola you
can stick it up yours.

Love it!!! My previous phone was a basic Nokia brick with a black and
white screen and no other features whatsoever- so comparing the V3xx
to it is like comparing a Wright Flyer to a Concorde. (or a ZX81 Spectrum
PC to a Dual-Core Pentium 4! Oops- giving my age away!) The only annoying
feature (besides the fact that the browser on the 3 network seems to
be a total waste of time) is that the "launch browser" button is directly
under the "down arrow" button on the keypad. I keep pressing it by mistake
whilst texting. It really could have done with being located somewhere
else- or one should at least be able to de-activate/reassign it. If
someone knows how to do this, let us all know woncha!!?

Got this phone free on up-grade from O2 it is jet black with silver
key pad and no dragon like pattern on the cover which i think is the
best for looks. Very slim but well made, far better features than past
V3's, i-mode is useful and camera is good but not the best on the market,
the video is very good. You can add microSD which is alot cheaper than
Sony memory cards, yes the phone design is the same as the original
but lets face it, had it been released today we'd be all raving about
it. Plus now with 3.5G great for video calling distant friends and family.
Great Phone !

Compared to my old Motorola: - Really slim so easy to carry. Nice, bright,

life. Lots of other stuff (MP3, camera/video & Bluetooth), but still
really good at the basics. The best mobile that I've had - would recommend

got this as an upgrade from 3 and its the worst phone i ever had. cant
wait to go back to my 6680 i gave a friend. the reception/coverage is
cat. the signal bars fluctuate like crazy. dropping calls and its very
fustrating. was using it as a hsdpa modem with my xps laptop and it
was also pretty cat, moving the v3 would most likely cause the connection
to break. all in all, its too much hi tech gadgets for moto to squeeze
into a slim clamshell device. also the C(ancel) key is directly above
the red power down button, not good for sms...... cant wait to go back
to a nokia!

This Phone is a very nice phone, but some sites are making the mistake
of saying its the upgrade for the V3X. The RAZR Vmaxx or RAZR V6maxx
as it is sometimes branded happens to be the upgraded V3X

I've waited very patiently for this phone to come available. For the
last few years I’ve been very happy with my Sony Ericsson’s
(K700, K750i, W800i) but I’ve been disappointed with their selection
of clam shell phones. They are all chunky and don’t sit too comfortably
in the hand. However, what Sony Ericsson lack for in stylish handsets,
they make up for in sophisticated software and an operating system which
is both advanced and very user friendly. For the last few years, I’ve
wanted to own a RAZR handset, but have been put off by their basic software
and lack of user friendly operating system. So when I heard late last
year that they were bringing out the V3xx I was keen to get my hands
on it. I had assumed that it would keep the stylish award winning design
of the RAZR, but update the software and include a better operating
system. I had mine sent out to me at the beginning of January when O2
launched the handset on their network. As expected when changing from
Sony Ericsson to Motorola, there were a lot of things to get used to.
Different menu settings, different ways to send text messages, and the
predictive text was a bit of a headache trying to learn. I’m on
O2, and they only offer the V3xx as part of their iMode service. I’m
not sure if this shows off the phone to the best of its ability. Most
of the iMode mobile browsing sites are not compatible with this handset
yet, so I can’t rate its 3G capabilities at the moment. One of
the main reasons I wanted a clam shell phone is because I used to always
get ‘head-burn’ when chatting on my handsets in the past.
All the Nokia and Sony Ericsson’s I’ve had in the past hurt
my head when I use them for more than 10mins at a time. The Motorola
RAZR design puts its battery and antenna in the lower half of the phone
– so that it is furthest away from your head and brain when you
are making a call. It’s a simple concept, and I’ve found
I can make a 40min phone call on the V3xx and not even get head buzz
from it. Not microwaving my brain every time I make a call is a major
point scorer for me. I love the shape and style of the phone. The screen
is one of the biggest I’ve had on a handset and it’s really
clear to see in all lighting conditions. Overall, I wish I could run
the Sony Ericsson operating system on this Motorola. The software on
the phone seems very limited – or at least, it seems to restrict
you from doing things that you are able to do on other handsets. For
example, on Sony's you can chose to make your Bluetooth "Visible" or
"Hide" at all times when it is powered on. On the Motorola, you have
to select "Find Me" and this only makes the Bluetooth visible for 3
minutes. There are no other options to change this setting. The file
system on the Motorola does not allow you to move photos or music files
into your own created folders. The messaging service on my handset is
frustrating, as texts come via SMS and multimedia comes through iMode
and into a different inbox. As not all V3xx handsets are on the iMode
service I can’t make this a criticism of the phone. As far as
making and receiving calls, this phone ticks the boxes and does what
it’s meant to do. In my book, if you want an MP3 player, get an
iPod. If you want an excellent camera, go buy a Canon. What I’ve
seen with the Sony Ericsson’s is that they are trying to cram
so much technology into their handsets that they become unstable and
there are more things to go wrong on them. Having said that, by showing
what mobile phones are capable of, Sony Ericsson are certainly setting
the standard as to what a mobile handset should be capable of doing.
Had this phone been released 18 months ago, it would have got 5 out
of 5 stars. Sadly, I’m only able to give it 3 out of 5 stars (even
though I really like the phone and am happy with it). Had the camera
been on par with the 3m Mega Pixels of the Sony Ericsson’s or
had an operating system that was more user friendly then it would have
scored more. Please Motorola; keep the design and just update the software!!
