Rating: - Worst phone ever!
In 9 months I went through 4! of these phones. Key pad #5 on first one didn't work properly I exchange the phone after 3 weeks. Second phone after few months went totally dead few times for no reason, or there was absolutely no sound which meant missed calls or I couldn't make a phone call. It was replaced under warranty for refurbished one. After only 2 weeks same thing as with second one happened with this one. Received refurbished replacement under warranty #4. Right from the box 4 key pads didn't work. Is this coincidence? Otherwise phone is stylish, beautiful, with very good reception. Camera is not that good. I really like it when it works and because reliability is very important for me and I had so many defective ones I can't give it more stars. My previous phone was Nokia and I had it for 5 years without single problem. I even dropped it, and it worked with cracked display for 2 years without problem. I'll never buy Motorola again.
Rating: - Nice phones for calls, and that's about it.
This phone gets exellent reception and call volume quality. However, there are other phones that gets you the same thing for much cheaper. The extra bells and whistles on this phone did not work for me.
1. This phone could not be recognized by my computer via a USB device. So it rendered my Motorolla Phone Tool program useless. I did some research and found this to be a common problem with the KRZR. So inorder to have custom ringtone, I had to spend an extra $50 on a MicroSD card and connect that directly into my PC and then put it back inside the phone.
2. No internet for AT&T/Cingular. I bought this phone unlocked and called in Cingular to get internet access on it. They gave me a link to change my settings. I did that and the internet was still stuck on "Lauching Browser" everytime I tried to get it online. I called them again and they told me there was nothing I could do because the phone was bought unlocked. But I had no problem getting my unlocked V3 online a few months ago.
So basically, this phone is superb when it comes to getting clear calls and good reception, much better than the V3. But when it comes to other essentials, it leaves much to be desired.

Well packaged and arrived in very good condition. Very sleek and stylish looking phone. Now that my fiancee has got the hang of the various features he loves this phone and has no complaints whatsoever. Would definitely purchase another one.
Rating: - Worked Great!
I was very hesitant buying an unlocked phone over the internet and from a distributor that I was unfamiliar with, but my experience was great. I wanted to purchase a phone that I could use with my current phone plan that I could just put my sims card in and it would work, that's exactly what I got. And, I didn't have to extend my contract.
I had to do a little research to make sure that it would work with my sims card. The reviews that were on Amazon were very helpful in helping me pick the right phone that accepted the correct signal (not sure that's what it's called).
I received my phone in a very timely fashion and it worked as soon as I put my card in. It will be a great surprise gift for my husband.
