Should I get a RAZR phone?

[gusmahler]

I just found out that I qualify for a "free" phone from Verizon because it's been 2 years since I last upgraded. (It's not actually free, I'm required to sign up for 2 additional years, then I get a phone for the "new" price, along with a $100 credit. So any phone I get that retails for $100 is essentially free. I was going to renew anyway, so the additional committment is not a big deal.)

So should I get a RAZR? If not what should I get? The phones I'm considering (not the cheapo phones and not the more expensive models include:

Samsung SCH-a870
CDM 8945
Samsun SCH-a930
Motorola V325
LG VX5300
LG LX8300
RAZR V3m
LG Chocolate

I don't really NEED a phone (I have a Motorola T730 that's about a year ago that I bought off of Ebay to replace a lost phone), but if it's free, why not get one?

My wife is not very happy with her RAZR.Battery life being her biggest complaint.

RAZR's blow. stay away from moto. samsung is the answer.

Pros:

Very thin, don't really notice it in pocket.

Cons:

Kinda buggy, crashes at times, I'm not wild about the features.

I haven't had battery problems, but I don't talk much and charge it every night.

If what you want is something that makes phone calls and is tiny, it's great.

Nokia 8801, you'll have to pay extra, but it is well worth it if you can use it on that network. I have this phone and it is quite possibly the best phone ever made. Also, you'll likely be the only person you know who has one...everyone has a gayzr.

Thanks for the review. And you're right about everyone having a Razr. Unfortunately, the phone you pointed out isn't available for Verizon.

You can have mine, I broke the [censored] out of it last weekend. It's like a month old and I didn't have insurance on it [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
