kylejn Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I want a phone that is going to last me a while, and I've been looking at these two the most. I need a phone that is GSM 850 compatible, and it also needs to be a flip phone, have a second external display, have a camera, and be decently stylish (i.e. not ugly). What do y'all think? Thanks!

jumungo4 Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I would go with the v3. I think it is much better than the v635. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/301603-motorola-v635-or-motorola-v3/#findComment-585680966 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pacal Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 The v3 might look cool, BUT the v635 has video recording, contains a megapixel camera and its memory is expandable. I'd go with the v635. It would last more... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/301603-motorola-v635-or-motorola-v3/#findComment-585681206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejn Posted March 27, 2005 Author Share Posted March 27, 2005 Does anybody know what the main menu screen of the V635 looks like? The only screenshot I can find of it has these 4 icons covering the entire screen, and I don't want those on there, so I don't wanna get a phone that has it like that.

I would go with the v636. The V3 is enormous and ugly in my opinion.

hadiz Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I would save v635 just because I have a v600 and it has very solid construction. However I have never used or seen a v3 Razr in person so can't comment one way or another on that one :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/301603-motorola-v635-or-motorola-v3/#findComment-585681378 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keito Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Isn't the V3 the same as the v6xx just in another shell? I though I read that somewhere on www.mobile-review.com besides i'd go with a v6xx anyways... they're very nice :) and I've toyed with the v3 and the keyboard isn't my thing... on the other hand I'm really happy with my v525, which is a lesser version of the v6xx in essence Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/301603-motorola-v635-or-motorola-v3/#findComment-585681404 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbo Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 The v635 has a megapixel camera, 8x zoom, light, expandable memory and video recording. The v3 is as previously said, a fashion phone, and I don't even think it looks that good.

Thanks for the links to the reviews! It looks like the votes are tied right now... looks like I've still got some thinking to do!
