Amazon.com Product Description
Merging an innovative slider design with an impressive feature set, the RIZR Z3 marks Motorola's first venture into the slider-style GSM market. Stylishly wrapped in a package for fashion conscious consumers looking for style and portability, the RIZR is packed with all the latest mobile technology, including a 2-megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth compatibility, an advanced music player, EDGE high-speed data capability, and more.

This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz). It does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider. This phone comes with a one-year warranty from a third party provider.



The sleekly designed RIZR V3 slides upward to reveal the phone's keypad. Sliding it open reveals a surprise--an artfully abstract tattoo.


Virtually all the phones functions can be accessed via the five-way controller on the slider and function buttons on the side.
Design
The RIZR Z3 takes the standard slider-style form factor to the next level with a sleek profile, and a unique, spring assisted opening design. It also takes familiar style cues from the wildly popular RAZR flip-phone. A large 176 x 220 color display with 262,000 colors dominates the top of the slider. The 2-megapixel camera lens is discreetly housed on the upper backside of the phone, safely tucked away until ready for use. Up/down buttons are placed on the left side for volume control while a voice button on the right side of the unit allows you to enter voice memos and create voice dialing profiles. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's backlit control pad, which is precision cut from a single sheet of nickel-plated copper alloy. A charging port and USB data cable port is placed on the bottom of the phone. Lastly, a memory card slot is included, allowing you to augment the RIZR's 20 MB of built-in memory.

Calling Features
The RIZR Z3's internal phone book can hold up to six phone numbers and three addresses per entry, while the phone's picture ID system allows you to assign pictures to your most common callers. It also supports polyphonic ringtones as well as MP3 ringers, allowing you to use portions of your favorite songs to alert you to incoming calls. A number of ringtones come preloaded on the phone. There's even an included application, MotoMixer, that lets you mix your own ringtones. For times when you want to be discreet, there's a vibrating alert. A built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear while voice activated dialing makes calling your friends, family and associates as easy as saying their names. And because the RIZR Z3 is Bluetooth enabled, wireless headsets can be configured with the phone for total hands-free operation. Lastly, the RIZR's voice dialing feature makes calling family, friends, and business associates as easy as saying their names.

Messaging, Internet, and Tools
The RIZR Z3 is a messaging and wireless Internet powerhouse. Support is built in for sending and receiving pictures, text, graphics, sound and video via messages. When used in combination with the phone's built-in still and video camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging fun. Instant messaging is also supported, and the phone ships with a built-in email client. The RIZR also comes stock with a built-in web browser for downloads and mobile web browsing.

iTap text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit--a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. With its Bluetooth or USB data capability, the phone can be easily used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs for high-speed data transfer over the supported EDGE network when coupled with a carrier data plan.

A number of handy software tools are bundled with the RIZR Z3 including a voice memo recorder, a calculator with currency converter, a calendar and an alarm clock. Use the phone's Bluetooth capability to set up a wireless link with a Bluetooth accessory or connect to a computer or hand-held device to exchange and synchronize data. The phone also supports the SyncML PC synchronization standard, and it can be used with Motorola's Mobile Phone Tools PC application to manage and synchronize contacts, calendar, and other data with your PC.

Imaging and Entertainment
As mentioned, hidden behind the MOTO RIZR's eye-catching design is a powerful digital camera that features an LED flash, brightness control, and a night mode. With a dedicated side camera key and a landscape viewfinder mode, you can hold it and use it like a digital camera. Capture stills and then send them to your friends via MMS messaging or email, or send them to your PC via USB or Bluetooth. Frame-worthy pictures be sent from the phone directly to your printer via PictBridge technology.

The phone is capable of MPEG4 video playback when you receive a video message, or if you upload video to the phone via USB or Bluetooth. The RIZR Z3 also supports custom graphics for wallpapers so you can dress up the phone to suit your fancy.

When the feeling strikes you, jam out to your favorite music on the RIZR's advanced music player. And because the RIZR sports a convenient memory slot, you can bring along a ton of tunes--the unit supports cards up to 2 GB (memory cards sold separately). Lastly, Java support is built into the RIZR, making it a powerful gaming companion. You can also use the handset's USB data connection to load more games and files onto the phone.

Vital Statistics
The Motorola RIZR Z3 weighs 3.92 ounces and measures 4.15 x 1.79 x 0.65 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 3.33 hours of digital talk time, and up to 225 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE frequencies. This phone comes with a one-year warranty from a third party provider.

2 out of 5 stars Looks good, but that is about it...   October 15, 2009
S. Mraz (Ramstein, Germany)
I bought this phone after someone had suggested it. It looks good, and has simple features. It does not charge! I tried even buying a car charger and it still charges off and on. I bought it in Sept and I have yet to get a full charge on it. If you are thinking about buying this phone I suggest going with another one.


3 out of 5 stars No picture text messaging.   September 17, 2009
Mark (Richmond, VA)
I got this phone and realized it wasn't what I specifically wanted. I had the RIZR Z3 before from Tmobile, and this "International Version" had some really odd features that were just unnecessary. That was the first turn off, but I ended up returning the phone specifically because it did not accept picture messaging. The reason I love the Z3 is because I'm really simplistic, I don't want a phone that can get on the internet or do anything else super high tech. I just want to be able to call and text friends and family. And if the phone couldn't accept picture messages, that's something pretty simple that it should be able to do, so I ended up just buying a replacement keypad for my old phone as well as a new battery and am just revamping it.
But the sellers were super helpful and made the return process as painless as possible! Great job guys!



4 out of 5 stars Nice affordable phone   July 16, 2009
Monica (Albany, NY USA)
A nice phone for people on a budget. It's not super fancy but it works well. The phone shipped quickly and looked relatively new at arrival. The only problem is that the camera glitches occasionally, but that can be fixed by restarting the phone.


4 out of 5 stars I love the look, feel and function of this phone but...   July 14, 2009

There are only a couple of things that I can categorize as a disadvantage to having this phone: you can't use it with the Motorola Phone Tools software, and it won't send picture messages. The pic messages hurts more than creating my own ring tones, but other than that, I think this phone is awesome. Even though it came with the European wall charger, it came with an adapter so it wasn't even a big deal. Plus, you could always use that old RAZR charger laying around; works just as good. Sure, it came in chinese, but I knew that when I read the other reviews and actually enjoy texting dumbstruck people messages in chinese.


2 out of 5 stars The Nav wheel is defective on both phones we got   May 11, 2009

My wife and I both got RIZRs. The wheel fell off hers. The wheel stopped working on mine. This happened after the 1 yr TMobile guarantee, but well before the 2 yr contract.

This is the first time I've had a phone fail to last a 2 yr contract. I intend to go back to Nokias.

I just bought an unlocked Motorola RIZR Z3 for my wife for her birthday and I really thought that the box it came in was neat. Hence, I thought I'd do an unboxing video with my digital camera to show exactly what it looks like (along with the accessories that came with it), as I've never seen a box like this before.

This is my review of the Motorola RIZR, which I own and have done some light modding on. It's shot with a Moto Rizr, so you get to see the video quality. 10/10 for the phone.
