Razr Sequel V13 Photos and Specifications Leaked
A few years back, the Motorola Razr was one of the most popular feature phones in the country. Moto's recent financial troubles, and their newfound focus on the smartphone market caused many to speculate that the Razr's anticipated sequel, the Ruby, would never come. Thanks to unwired view we now know that the Ruby, now called the V13, is still in development. It's just been approved by the Bluetooth SIG, which means Moto has decided to continue the line.

Beckham takes Shirt off for RAZR2
Motorola pays David Beckham to take off his shirt in the new RAZR2 campaign in Korea.
Motorola has a complete campaign dubbed Become Beckham going on to promote the RAZR2 in Korea.
For me the RAZR2 is just not really triggering my gadget lust. All these new touch phones are just more appealing. Possibly if Motorola pays Scarlett Johansson to take her shirt off and wear a RAZR2 I would change my mind.

Amp'd Motorola RAZR Review
Laptop Mag reviews the Amp'd Mobile powered Motorola RAZR cell phone.
Amp'd Mobile is an entertainment focused 3G mobile phone service with its own UI targeted at youth, young professionals and early adopters.
Quote from the review:
"This special edition of the RAZR was enhanced to deliver turbo speed downloads using Amp’d Mobile’s EV-DO network. Streaming videos did not take long to buffer and looked smooth, especially, when we tuned in a South Park clip of Mr. Mackay lecturing the boys on the seriousness of taking a "dookie in the urinal."
The speaker was also quite loud. On the other hand, it still takes a while for Amp’d Mobile’s slick menu screens to load, sometimes as long as 15 seconds after making a selection.

RAZRs To Get Tattooed
When you talk about mid- and high-end mobile phones these days, it's tough not to mention the RAZR name, the line of products that made Motorola's mark on the map so explosive. With its popularity, the RAZR has become available in all sorts of different colors, even pink. But now, Motorola wants you to be able to customize you super sleek phone even more.
Motorola has teamed up with tattoo artist extraordinaire, Ami James, to create new versions of the RAZR that will have laser-etched images from James embedded onto the outside casing of the phone. Pictured is one of the examples, a white outline of a dragon completely encompassing a black RAZR.

Wirefly released very early this morning their list of the "hottest cell phones for winter and spring 2006," which is essentially marketing speak meaning the top-selling phones on their website. At the top of the list is the silver Motorola RAZR, and predictably the #2 designation goes to the black RAZR.
Motorola grabbed 6 of the top 10 spots, including the new pink RAZR (#10), which came out in February to celebrate Valentine's Day. Other Motorola phones that are included are the V360, the V276, and the ROKR.

Motorola introduces a slider version of its highly successful RAZR mobile phone in Korea.
The Motorola RAZR Z is only 14.8mm thick, pretty thin for a slider. It features a 2.2 inch color screen and mp3 player.
An analyst quoted in the Korea Times article says the RAZR Z is to big for Korean hands and more suitable for foreigners. There you have it Motorola, go and launch the sliding RAZR in the US.

Dolce & Gabbana Gold RAZR Phone Photos
I4U reader John S. sent us photos of his limited edition Dolce & Gabbana Gold RAZR V3i phone that was announced in December.
Apparently he made these photos for his eBay auction, where he probably made real gold with the gold Motorola RAZR.
As you can see in the photo each of the 1,000 D&G RAZR phones has a unique number imprinted. This one carries the number 881. I wonder who has the gold RAZR with 1 or 1000?
See several photos of the package contents and the very pretty gold RAZR in our photo gallery.

Verizon Motorola RAZR V3c Review
The Motorola RAZR V3c went on sale at Verizon early December. Our review partner Designtechnica took it through the paces and published a review.
Quote:
"Unless you've been living in Antarctica, you know and probably crave a Motorola RAZR. No other cell phone looks more at home in our futuristic view of the 21st century as the art-techno RAZR, which has made it the world's most popular cell phone. According to Motorola, around 13 million RAZRs have been sold worldwide.
Amazingly, that total was achieved without the phone being available from the U.S.'s second largest carrier, Verizon. That oversight has been corrected with the RAZR V3c.
Desirous Verizon customers will find their RAZR is superior to their friends proudly showing off their Cingular version, primarily because it is compatible with Verizon's broadband EV-DO network and Verizon's V CAST multimedia service.
Unfortunately, while currently cool, the VC3, priced at $199.99 with a two-year contract, may face a quick obsolescence. Verizon is due to launch a music service early in 2006, and the RAZR lacks both an external memory slot to easily import your MP3s and a stereo headset option. But if you're more concerned with impressing your co-workers than listening to music on your cell phone, the RAZR in any version is likely to remain the coolest phone around.
