It's features are fine for the average user, and RF Performance (reception) is fine for decent-to-strong covered areas. However, if you're a power phone user and demand a lot of high-level smartphone features or a QWERTY keyboard, and/or you live or frequent poor signal areas, then this phone probably is NOT the best choice for you.

I forgot to add that apparently the CDMA version of the RAZR (the V3m) is significantly better in its RF Performance than the GSM RAZR (the V3). Subsequent generations of the RAZR (V3r, V3i, V3x, V3xx, etc) also improve on RF Performance, but it's hard to say how much...
