Review: Moto RAZR
Calls
As with most clamshells, the RAZR answers a call when the phone is flipped open and ends it when the flip is shut. Answering takes a second or so after the flip is opened. Ending a call is usually quicker. During a call the right softbutton activates the speakerphone while the left mutes the call. The menu button brings up an in-call menu with all the normal features. All other calling features work as expected.
Contacts
Contacts can be stored on either the SIM card or the phone. Contacts stored to the SIM can simply hold a phone number, as usual. Contacts stored to the phone can hold multiple phone numbers and email addresses, as well as ringtones, photo caller ID. Each number stored to a contact on the phone can also have its own voice command and speed dial command.
Although the phone displays contacts from both the phone and SIM, there is no way to tell it to display one or the other. So if you sync the phone to a PC, and you back up all your phone numbers to your SIM card, each contact will be displayed multiple times - once for the phone contact and one for each SIM entry.
By default, the phone displays contacts in picture view - a picture for every contact is displayed next to the entry, even if it is just a default picture showing the location of the contact.
