And your point is.....?

Weirdly enough I see Razr's everywhere but have never seen that Chocolate thing before. But then I live in Australia so surprise suprise 

It all depends on your tastes I guess. I had a flip phone for about a week and hated the thing and went back to a candybar or "brick" as you call it. My mum briefly owned a Razr and I found it annoying to use for texting, I don't use the dictionary and the repeat rate was too slow. That and I don't like the feel of the buttons. But for other people it must have a lot going for it because I see it everywhere.

I have one possible reason not to get that phone in white, if it bothers you that is. Thats a pretty damned feminine looking phone.

I have Sony Ericsson which I bet a lot of people hate. I just like how it texts. Thats all. Can't remember the model its a K something i. But I'm probably not going to buy another SE because the charger port drives me nuts, my old phone which was a K700i had a different charger port so i hoped its problems would be ironed out but no this ones ended up even worse. Getting the bloody thing to charge is like playing that operation game - tilt it slightly as you're putting it down and you'll have to wiggle it again to get it to realize it has a power plug up its arse.

Are you saying that ones wider? It sure doesn't look wider :s

Wrong  in the fact of "faster calls" considering, I'm guessing, my phone would happen to be faster than yours. I'm not saying that to be a douchebag, like Mac-fans, who must pound it into your head until you agree with them. I'm just saying because most "cheap" phones either require you to dial the entire number or use an odd speed-dial system. (Press the number, press send blah blah). I just have mine set to a quick tap sort of function where the speed dial automatically calls after holding in the number for less than 2 seconds (if that).

Now you also must take into consideration that different people take care of things differently. Some people constantly drop their phones/expensive stuff, and others are extra cautious about it. If you're the second (like I would consider myself), then the phone will last longer. If not, well, you're, pardon my language, fucked with the new RAZR. I've also invested in an InvisibleShield, works great and keeps even major scratches from happening.

Erm... Sarcasm?

My brother is big into buying cell phones. Real expensive ones. ONes that can tranform and crap. They're like mini computers.

I, too, like Skarteh have a girlfriend. So it gets used often, and usually abused (not because I throw it across the room) but more like because I tend to just drop the thing a lot. I just wanted to know why buy a expensive phone when no matter how careful you are, it is indeed subject to the possibilities of being damage. Of course, if I asked my brother this, he'd roll his eyes and make some stupid comment and then in return, I would want to personally stomp his face in.

I'm never going to buy a Razor....well, until they've fallen to a reasonable $10 price for me. Which will be in 20 or so years. But I'll be getting it, because I was explained the positives of it.

It's just a hard way to explain it. I guess I could explain by referencing to video games. Let's say the GTA games. Why buy GTA IV when you can get San Andreas or GTA III (which takes place in the same city as GTA IV) at a bargain price? Well you'll mainly get it for the new features, as with all sequels/series games. New graphics, new locations, etc. With a cell phone, you get it for faster service, better service (yes, different phones get better service than others), a faster phone overall, and upgraded/up-to-date features in an appealing package.

As with the new Razr, you get a much faster phone than many on the market, great service (at least with Verizon; I get better service in certain areas than with my old phone), a better camera, music player, and overall accessibility of everything on the phone. Sure, some people won't like it, but some people don't like the Wii or PS3. It's just their opinion.
