Going Hands On with the Motorola RAZR 2 V8

It's not quite the production model that you'll be seeing in stores, but the lucky ducks at Mobileburn have been fondling a prototype Motorola RAZR 2 for a little while and overall, they like it. Also known as the Motorola V8 (as well as V9 and V9m), the RAZR 2, as you probably suspect, is the true successor to the slim flip phone that had everyone abuzz many moons ago.

This is after years of releasing SLVRs, upgraded RAZRs, RAZR MAXXs, and KRZRs. The external touchscreen is easily the most attractive feature on the RAZR2, given that it's just as large and in charge as the main display housed within. The buttons have all received a "usability upgrade" as well, except the camera button is still "fairly loose." The user interface has been completely revamped, offering consumers more customization, flexibility, and speed. All in all, the RAZR 2 is like the RAZR of old, only better.
