Motorola RAZR V3

I have used the MOTO RAZR V3i model before [not with ATT] though and I never used data or browse with it. It is a very good phone with bluetooth, camera and music. It lasted for more than 2 years and I would call it a sweet deal for $100 and also with $50 airtime credit. If you think 2 years is a good enough lifespan for a mobile, this model will probably stand good. I maintained the phone very well, but this is a flip model and all flip models... face a problem on the long run - the hinge gets broken or loose and you have to change the entire numpad, in V3. I have an ipod touch, which I carry always and it kind of was dumb to carry two music players. Probably I should go for the iphone. If you are wise enough, you can get one when there is a bonus time. I got $50 additional credit when I bought this phone. If you never use data, or shy to put forward a lot of money, go for the basic model. Many of my friends got the basic model phone (nokia) for free, when you purchase airtime credit [gophone prepaid] for $100. However, if you are going for a business plan, you may want to try the blackberry or palm pre, which is available at the same price at amazon [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JIO4JY?ie=UTF8&tag=theipoandiphf-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002JIO4JY - Palm Pre] [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001JEOV8S?ie=UTF8&tag=theipoandiphf-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001JEOV8S - Blackberry Bold 9000] more

Prepaid phones are the way to go these days, they are such a smart way for people to save money AND get a great deal at the same time. My personal favorite plan is Straight Talk, its the best deal nationwide! Just from switching from my old monthly contract to Straight Talk, I am saving over $1200 a year by signing up for the 2-year plan. Could it get any better? It's a great service, just thought I would spread the word to those looking for... smart savings :) more

Ordered the phone from Amazon and received it within a reasonable time frame. Phone works well, but could not receive the stated $50 worth air time credit after activation of the phone. Contacted Amazon several times, call always got terminated once discussion on this started (not really terminated, just been placed in idle - no more response from the other end after providing information needed). Be aware of the case if you consider buying the... phone with receiving such credit, just like I did. more
