Motorola today announced two new CDMA handsets, the V3m at the high end, and the W315 towards the low end. Each basically improves on an existing model.

Additionally Motorola announced new colors for the RAZR V3i - dark blue, deep purple and maroon red. The V3i is an upgraded GSM RAZR with a 1.3 Megapixel camera, memory card slot, and software improvements.

And still no V3i for Cingular...

CDMA gets ANOTHER RAZR and I'm still waiting for Cingular to release the V3i. lol. Gotta love it...
Yeah, I'm giving up on Cingular's launch and am just going to buy one off e-bay. You can get one for around 250. Not bad.

The quality testing is probably taking forever, that's usually the story. Unless they are doing a stealth launch on it whic...

Nothing against anyone posting here but I have posted before and will post again that Cingular is getting the V3i. Right now it is scheduled to be dropped by the 27th of this month.

Will it very? Yes maybe. Will the stores get it or online get it ...

What a joke

It's cool and all that the V3m will have a TF slot. But seriously verizon was a year and half behind cingulars release finally doing so then four months later release the real macCoy. Whatever 🙄 😈
Let me guess battleship grey again 🙄

Except this one has features in line with the v3i which cingular has bogged down in testing.
Calm down, hippie..

Cingular bought exclusive rights to the original V3 and, just like everyone else, Verizon followed suit after Cingular's contract ended.

Besides, I don't see any V3i's on the shelf at Cingular stores..

Yeah, but Verizon had the E815 which came with a memory card slot and a 1.3 mp camera. Given it wasn't a RAZR, but it was still pretty similar to this in features.

I am glad that they finally came out with a CDMA RAZR with the slot, though, and I ...

stereo headphone support?

what is that? does that mean it will have a 3.5mm headphone jack as opposed to the 2.5mm?
No. There's no room for a round plug. It will be the same as the V3c.

Verizon's Razr V3M

Is this better than the v3i GSM? We do have a 1GB removable memory...Is the external screen 65K or 262K...? Preliminary from one source P/S say 65K. But this maybe non-reliable at this early stage. We really need the comparable test and I await the chance...
No OBEX or OPP Bluetooth profiles in new V3m

--------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------

I just thought I'd mention that Motorola significantly reduced the number of Bluetooth profiles in the new V3m. Here's...

Battery Life

Will this new updated version of the RAZR CDMA have better battery life than the V3C and quicker menu access?
no and no same UI same lag. Hopefully I'm wrong
More than likely, yes..

There is a software upgrade for the V3c in the works right now.. This upgrade should remedy those laggy menus and improve battery life, as well as help avoid such complication on the V3m.

T-Mobile

I know that there are some Razr versions T-Mobile carries and some they dont. Is T-Mobile going to carry this new version in the new colors?
This is the cdma razr not gsm.

More Moto Garbage

They could have at least slapped the new Linux UI and a QVGA screen on the so called RAZR V3i. Oh brother 🙄

v3m release date?

So the article link says that the v3m is expected to be release Q2 this year, does "release" in that type of aricle usually mean from Motorola or from Verizon?

So I guess my real question is, for those of you with more experience than me, what is a reasonable time period to expect Verizon to actually release the v3m? ...

Rejoice!

Can't say how many times I've heard people complaining about the MP3's and no expansion slot, this will make a lot of people happy, and it'll be nice not to hear about that anymore 😛

Verizon

I want a motorola razr but the only reason I'm not getting one is the f.... Verizon IU (interface Sh...) that thing makes any phone look ugly.. I hate verizon for that.. Y verizon Y? u are ruining ourselves.. what a waste of a phone if it comes out for verizon.
As much as I despise their new UI even I am getting tired of blasting it. It sucks, and it's here to stay, at least for now.

Guess I won't be upgrading any time soon. It's an easy way to avoid the new UI.
