Hello,
I went to my local US Cellular store a few weeks ago and bought the RAZR v3m, it is decent for reception however i have noticed it dose not feel very durable and the side buttons are too easily activated. I plan to swap phones in the 30 period, i have some ideas of what i might get but your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

Did you know you can lock the outside keys so can not change your ring and stuff?

Also, I have the option of using pretty much any phone and I have had both razr's and a krzr. My krzr had continous problems of the camera not working, freezing, and that damn little charging port stub thing sticking out all the time. My advice to you is that stay with what you have, because just like the razr...the krzr is still in the developing stage and I would see software upgrades coming for it.

I did not know i could do that, however i would still like something more durable. any ideas? I was thinking of the Motorola v323i or the LG ux-355. advice on these or other ideas would be very helpful!

I do most of the warranty repairs for this location..so looking on that if you ever have any problems LG is really good about replacing your phone if you have any probs, however Motorola is just as good on warranty work. Both models are good models, but personally i would take the 323i..great reception, clarity, and durable.

You may also want to look at the Nokia 6165. It is a new phone to US Cellular so the pro's and con's of that phone I could not give. But from previous phones, Nokia has been the durable, great reception, great battery life phone (with the exception of the 6255).

Yes, I have looked at the reviews on this website for the Nokia 6165i they seem ok and i plan to at least look at that in person before making my final decision, the issue is when it gets to the store, id like to make the switch soon.

Well the razr you can not go wrong with. That is a phone I feel very confident in selling. As for the Nokia 6165, well it feels cheap and not so durable. If you want to lock those buttons you can go to menu->settings->security->lock application->then enter the last 4 of your cell phone number->then scroll to ring styles and change it to locked

If you change to the motorola 323i then just follow the same steps on locking the keys
