Now mind you these are based soley on my opinion (my lil waiver here).

First off, FORGET the Samsung 950. If your gonna get a phone close to that, get the Lg 8100. Much better reception, louder, and its LG, just better IMHO.

2nd the Razr has horrible battery life, especially if you plan on texting all night at your job, plus it has the new iTAP, which is comparable to T9 for text, but takes a while to get used to. And it also, like the 950, has an internal antenna. Albeit it is the "best" internal antenna, it still would more than likely have a hell of a problem getting out of your work area.

Lastly the V. Good reception, and fast Text, and it does have the qwerty keyboard for the quicker text option, and u can get your MSN, AI...

What do you mean the V325 is the only phone with the GPS?

Wat I mean is it has the GPS feature, its liek $10 a month, or $3 a day, and it has GPS tracking, just like the military uses. Like you open your phone, turn on the GPS option, and it sasy "You are here" and shows a map, and gives directions, the whole nine yards. Its like map quest with GPS on your phone. Good for hiking, camping, road trips, or if your just lost. And at $10 a month, or $3 a day, its cheaper than buying a Map or calling 411 a couple times to find locations LOL. Thats what i meant. Hope that clears it up.

Oh, sweet. I hadn't heard about that feature. I was understandably confused thinking that all phones have the GPS built into them...but not a GPS mapping device.

Yeah its very very nice. I don't pay the $10 a month but I have on more than one occassion paid the $3 for one day of service. Me and my friends like to go on random road trips, no map, no idea where we are going nothing. And we just pick a destination, and if we get lost, I just call 611, turn on my GPS, and BAM, we know where we are and can easily find directions to where ever we want to go. Not only for that but camping, hiking, fishing trips, wat ever u want. Not only that but for just a basic camera phone, very nice camera, good seperation on the buttons, nice feel, its SOLID, about impossible to break, and the polymer grip is nice. I could go on and on, but I don't want to get too far off topic. Just check the phone out here on...

Yeah, I've messed with a few of them in my store. I sold 6 of those last week, and we have yet to be replenished. I'm a big fan, but I was unaware of the GPS thing. I was going to upgrade to one of those anyway. Now I just need to wait for my $80 to come in. Stupid rent and car upkeep comes first though. Bill Gates should just buy a house for me to squat in while I go to school.

Yeah, Bill Gates should buy me a house too, lol. As it is it seems Microsoft is trying to buy out Verizon LOL. Oh well, monopolies never truly end. I wonder if the original poster of this question is ever gonna get on LOL, or if its just going to be me and you. 🤣
