Motorola Razr Phone

The Motorola Razr phone is one of the most popular cellular phones on the market today. Since its release in 2005, its fast gained notoriety can be seen in movies, on television, and in magazines. If you want proof, look no further than the people in front of you in line at the store or look at the tabloid pictures at the grocery register.

I love my Motorola Razr, just as I have loved all of my previous cell phones. However, that doesn't mean the Razr is perfect. While this slim line phone is small enough to fit into the smallest pocket of your purse, its also small enough to get lost between your front seat and console. It can also fit nicely between the refrigerator and wall and even between the stove and dishwasher.

The Razr comes with more memory than most phones of the past. However, what's unfortunate is that the memory is split up and allotted to different sections. I like to save certain text messages, but the Razr phone doesn't allow much room to do that. Instead, a bulk of the phone's memory is concentrated on the camera. If I had kept my old phone, I could pick and choose where my memory was used. If I needed more space to save text messages or phone numbers, I could simply delete a picture or video clip. The Motorola Razr does not afford this option.

My old phone also had a broader range of reception. While I could go anywhere and talk on that phone, the Razr frequently loses its signal. It also has that annoying habit of ringing straight to voice mail and then buzzing me that I have a message waiting. This phone also has failed, on many occasions, to alert me to a new voice mail message. Many is the number of people who assumed that I was ignoring them, when in fact I never knew they had called. I haven't changed phone carriers, so I can only glean that it is the phone and not my service that is causing these problems.

My Razr phone is sleaker and more stylish than my previous phones, but it is far less convenient to use. I have spoken to many of my co-workers who also have Razrs. All have come to the same conclusion as I. We wish we still had our other phones.
