My Cingular plan was due for a phone upgrade which I did this week. I had to choose between two offers they had: <\/font><\/p>\n

Sony Ericsson S710a<\/a> for $149.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate <\/font><\/p>\n

Motorolla Razr v3<\/a> for $199.99 <\/font><\/p>\n

After a lot of reading and research I picked the Sony Ericsson S710a which I think beats the Motorolla Razr v3 with all hands and legs down ! <\/font><\/p>\n

This is why I choose the SE-S710a: <\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a screen size is 240×320 (Razr is 176×220) <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a memory is 32MB on phone 32MB MemoryStick Duo (Razr is just 5MB total). <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a has a 1.5 Megapixel camera (Razr is only 0.5 Megapixel) <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a records video (Razr only plays back video) <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a camera has 8x Zoom (Razr is only 4x zoom) <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a has a builtin flash light (Razr got none) <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a comes with a head set for no extra charge <\/font><\/p>\n

— SE-S710a comes with a very nice memory-stick\/compact-flash USB reader device. <\/font><\/p>\n

— All the PC Connectivity Software for the SE-S710a<\/a> is free, while you have to pay $29.99 for the Razr PC software called “mobile PhoneTools” <\/font><\/p>\n

The only advantages of the Razr over SE s710a are:<\/strong> <\/font><\/p>\n

— The Razr is quad-band and hence supports the 900MHz band (while s710 is tri-band and does not support 900MHz) <\/font><\/p>\n

— The Razr is a little bit lighter and thinner (though its wider) <\/font><\/p>\n

Other than the features listed above both devices were a tie. <\/font><\/p>\n

So in summary, if you absolutely need a quad-band phone (i.e. supports the 900MHz frequency) then get the Razr, otherwise you should definitely get the SE s710a. <\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
