Since the days of the StarTac, Motorola has made its name on trend-setting clamshell handset design as much as it has on technical innovation. The V3 RAZR has continued this heritage of fashion-forward cell phone design, keeping Motorola on the tongue-tips of future first style mavens across the globe.

Motorola Razr Silver FrontThe RAZR line now includes a Verizon-compatible CDMA phone (the V3c) and two updated handsets not yet available in the United States: the V3i, featuring a 1.3 megapixel camera and (in some iterations) Apple's iTunes music software, and the V3x, a slightly thicker RAZR phone packing a 2MP camera amongst other bleeding edge goodies. The RAZR V3, however, is still the mainstay of Motorola's slim flip phones, and is now available in several color choices from both Cingular and T-Mobile.

Featuring a VGA camera, Bluetooth connectivity, and cellular modem functionality, the RAZR V3 offers functionality alongside its form. But is the V3 a formidable phone in today's marketplace, or is it truly an example of style over substance?
