The long-awaited V3i adds iTunes compatibility as well as expandable memory, a 1.2-megapixel camera, and more.

Editors' note: Click here to read our full review of the Motorola RAZR V3i.

Motorola RAZR V3iThough it won't satisfy true iPod lovers, the iTunes-powered Motorola RAZR V3i makes for a better-than-average music phone, with the best music management software for any music-oriented handset (which, we realize, isn't saying much). Call quality and reception were both strong, and the phone's sound quality is on par with an iPod shuffle. We also appreciated the V3i's impressive messaging and e-mail capabilities. That said, we missed Bluetooth headphone support, which would have made the V3i a standout music phone, and the lack of 3G or even EDGE data access is disappointing.
