Today the RAZR2 started selling from TMO for $250 with 2GB of internal memory. Now all major US carriers have the phone, so it should be selling well to the mainstreamers. [More details on the RAZR2 variants]

razr2 luxury edition

Moto RAZR2 Luxury Edition Screams Atlantic City Style

It's no gold-plated diapers, but the RAZR2 V8 Luxury Edition does have 18k and 24k gold plated accents, a fancy analog/digital clock, and all the rest of the standard Moto RAZR2 features. All the non-gold parts are "black slate" and "vacuum metal", along with some snakeskin effects on the back. If you're at all interested in the RAZR 2, head here for some more details, but the only things you're getting extra with the Luxury edition (other than the gold) are a Moto H680 headset—which has gold accents itself—and the envy of dirty middle-aged men everywhere.

Michel Gondry's RAZR2 Ad

We last saw Gondry working his craft for HP's money, but now he's taken his weirdly fluid visuals and made a 60-second spot for the Moto RAZR 2 as well. If you're a Gondry fan, you'll be sure to enjoy the fact that he takes a boring spec sheet and turns it into a subtle, but interesting montage of cellphone features. I'd like to see the director work his magic selling Windows Vista Service Pack 1 in a similar manner. [Super Punch via Neatorama] More »

Motorola RAZR2 On Sale Now

As expected, that hot damn RAZR2 just went on sale for $250 little green doggies at Sprint. This is a far cry from the $500 that the original RAZR went for at its launch. Expect other carriers to be following suit now or later with their RAZR2 variants. [Sprint]

Four of the Five RAZR2s Reviewed (Verdict: What a Difference a Carrier Makes)

Sascha Segan at PC Mag just worked his way through testing the AT&T, Sprint, Verizon Wireless and Alltel RAZR2 models. Though all RAZR2s have similar specs—"luxurious metal-and-glass design," 240-MHz processor, roughly 100 MB of memory, a 2-megapixel camera and "the biggest, most beautiful external screen you've ever seen on a flip phone"—each carrier treated this differently. We gave you a nice run-down of feature differences, but here's how the actual user experience differs from carrier to carrier: More »

The Unknown Differences Between the RAZR2, Carrier to Carrier

Apparently, every major carrier is getting a RAZR2. But that doesn't mean they're identical. Between the stores, network technology, and the custom UIs, each is different...and some better than others. Here's a brief guide to which RAZR2 has what, which hasn't been documented at all until now:

The Full List of RAZR2 Carriers; Almost Everybody Gets in on the Fun

We've got exclusive word that the full list of carriers for the Motorola RAZR2 will be AT&T, Alltel, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. Only Sprint and Verizon have announced it so far, but look for the others to follow suit shortly. Motorola isn't messing around with iPhone-style marriage to one carrier; they want anyone to be able to get on board with their new flagship, just like they did with the original. So if you're waiting to get a fancy new haptic-touchscreen-featuring RAZR2, don't go canceling your contract to get one; you don't need to. Which model [V9 (3G HSDPA), V9m (3G EVDO CDMA) and V8 (GSM)] each carrier will get hasn't been announced yet.

Verizon Wireless First Out Of Gate With Motorola RAZR2

Some of you are thrilled by it, others of you are disgusted. Either way, we're all eager to watch what happens with the MOTORAZR2, and it looks like Verizon Wireless is the first to announce pricing and availability, with its EVDO-enabled touchscreen-faced V9m. According to a press release, it will be in stores in September at the fairly expected price of $299.99 after $50 mail-in rebate and fresh two-year contract. (AT&T might still beat VZW to the punch with an August 24th shipdate, but that's still unconfirmed.) More »

Gallagher Blends In At Motorola's Line Show

I turn around at the Motorola show and there's Gallagher (first name unknown). Apparently he reviews gadgets these days. I ask him what size of mallet it would take to smash a Moto phone, and he says the phones look pretty sturdy. This might have been code for "Everyone asks me smashing questions all the time and I've run out of good replies." He was nice enough, but I kinda backed away at that point. Later, I check out the pic I took of him, and realize it was a freakish mirror image of the sexy Moto lady from the RAZR2 launch. Did he plan that? Is Gallagher secretly awesome?
