Pros:
Slick design in a cool, copper color. Huge external screen. Strong calling features. Good navigation. |
 |
Cons:
Lackluster messaging with buggy software. Poor camera quality. Music transfer gave us problems. Web browser doesn't like us. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
 |
| The Verizon Wireless RAZR2 V9m is a fine choice for anyone on Verizon who wants an updated RAZR2, just as the Sprint RAZR2 is a fine choice for Sprint upgraders, desperate for that new RAZR style. The rest of us might want to step back and wait a bit. Each of these phones has style and some innovative new features, and both are fine performers, though not excellent in any aspect. Still, the RAZR2 feels like a good start, and if there is one thing we can be sure of, there will be more of them. Many, many more. |
