    CNET Review

    The Good: The Motorola Razr2 V8 offers an attractive design and a useful feature set including stereo Bluetooth and world phone support. Also, its call, music, and photo performance are quite good.

    The Bad: The Motorola Razr2 V8 doesn't fully utilize its external display or controls, and its menu structure is confusing. Also, it's the only Razr2 without support for 3G networks.

    The Bottom Line: The Motorola Razr2 V8 may be one of the prettiest Razr2s around, but it's not nearly as smart. Its saving grace is its good performance.

    Review Summary: We say: If you want to use the V8 as a portable music player, you'll have to get the 2GB luxury version. Err... which costs £500. So maybe just don't bother.

    Review Summary: The Motorola RAZR2 V8 is the apotheosis of the voice phone. It's as good as it gets for making calls on a GSM network, but the unit falls short as a pocket computer.
