[CJK3424]

I loveee this phone. I've had it for 2 years and now my contracts up and I'm so upset because they don't sell it anymore. Although the buttons on the qwerty keyboard dont all work as easily as they used to, i still love this phone. the buttons are popped out so its really easy to text. i love it so much.

[janellhmongilovelife]

So, I actually want this phone, but I'm not sure where to buy it and things like that. Any help on that? I'm looking for it to be not so expensive also.

[TwinkleSpoons]

i had this phone and it crapped out on me

[jcfrn1]

[whatasks21]

[Lanedafool700]

[madddg]

no it doesn't require internet

[YoKeM5]

Is this phone like a blackberry where u have to pay 30 to 40$ a month for the Internet or is it just a regular phone?

[F007Trace]

@YoKeM5 Regular Phone

[YoKeM5]

@F007Trace okay thx i needed to know that cause i get one soon and if verizon still has it i am gonna get it but im only 12 so i can only get a none data phone thx man

[madddg]

nope doesn't require it

[shoumisfilms123]

no it is optional i have it and it is straight up mesaging

[SummerBaby4ev]

i have that phone, i hate it...... not one i wanted :(

[amberkng]

How can I get the update to make it shoot video?

I have had this phone for atleast 4 months and it has worked well.

[alacrosse92]

why don't you recommend it?

[7Gaara0]

Would you actually recommend this phone over all the other Verizon "feature phones"? I was looking at this one and I personally like it the best, but I need to look into it a bit more..

[F007Trace]

@7Gaara0 No i would not reccomend it.

[42sk8rgirl42]

@7Gaara0 I would. I had this phone and it was one of the best phones I ever had. I dropped mine MUCH more than other people drop their phones. (Lets also keep in mind im 13) And It didnt brake until maybe the last 2-3 weeks of use. I would recomend it,

Also, the keyboard is fun to swivle(:

[42sk8rgirl42]

@42sk8rgirl42 and! i had it for almost two years before it messed up.

[MaggotPrince191]

@42sk8rgirl42 ive had one for about to years now too and it just messed up..none of my buttons are workin now except for my red one.

[F007Trace]

THANK YOU FOR 30,000+ VIEWS!

[frogkiller54]

[frogkiller54]

how do update it?

[MrAustinbrady]

i have this phone and if you take it in the hot tub it will explode that is what happened to me

[skadoosh530]

@ quikflow it seriously does plus it takes the place of an ipod you just have to switch your music to mp3's

[dylandyson]

i miss my blackberry :(

but im stuck with this! damn data plan! sucha rip off!

[TheDreamer789]

i dont like this phone its boring alis is better

[quikflow]

does this phone kick ass?

[F007Trace]

@quikflow sorry to dissapoint but no. allthough everyone who sees it will think it does.

[jezyoo7]

@quikflow I have this phone, and I think it's awesome

[madddg]

my son loves it

[guitarmano8]

does that micro sd card plug into your computer so that you can put music on it, or do you have to buy music online on the phone?

also, does this phone have standard headphone jacks?

[Frostbite720]

1:52 Numa numa FTW

[brooksman10]

what do yo mean replace the blitz i mean my friend had a blitz it broke and she got a razzle is that what you mean

[F007Trace]

@brooksman10 Not Exactly, It is the ohne with the same features and a similar price as the Blitz. It was designed to take its place after they stopped making the Blitz.

and Yes that is why your friend got a Razzle wehn thier Blitz broke.

[skadoosh530]

is there an earphone jack???

[F007Trace]

@skadoosh530 Nope.

[jakou3]

@skadoosh530 yeah but its 2.5 mm

[lifeimmunity]

@skadoosh530 yes there is actualy despite what he says but its 2.5mm so it wont work with just any earphones you can get a adaptor for about 5$ but its a pain in the ass

[volt443]

Really helpful!

Nice vid ;)

[sushimasta28]

For Text features, does it save text history as a conversation or are the texts shown individually?

[spikeman23]

I was reading customer reviewss on amazon about this phone. This woman said she got four razzles for her family and three of them broke in less than four months.

[F007Trace]

@spikeman23 Mine did not break but i sent it back to Verizon and they lost it.

[spikeman23]

@F007Trace Good job on their part lol. I got the samsung intensity for fre in marcvh when i upgraded, I liked it at first but gthere is a reason why these phones are free. I've had nothing but issues with mine for the past month and a half. It slides open in my pocket, pocket dials, I've gotten missed texts, And yesterday morning i noticed it had shut itsdelf off overnight. I'm going to try and get my chocolate 2 reactivated.

[alyssaxxrocks]

[MAJproductionsTV]

@Icefreeze96

Does that help?

[OhioStateFan69]

Really bored of it

[MrMan77619]

thank you you just made me glad i bot that fone

[burchified]

I had that song playing on my computer before I paused it to watch this video.....creepy.

[pennysworth]

Where is this phone made, please?  And thanks for the review. Looks like my next phone.

[applefox77]

@pennysworth It is made in Korea.

[pippie193]

im sorry but the razzle is a good phone but shitty at the same time. recently i plugged head phones in the phone and now i cannot get the sound to play out the speakers.

[Ninjakickyobut]

how do u put songs on it

[chickenyfood123]

@Ninjakickyobut look in the manual. it took me a while to figure it out but i eventally did :) good luck

[F007Trace]

Thanks for the 20,000+ Views!

[MzJacksonKOP]

Well i was indecisive about either the samsung Intensity or this Razzle Dazzle thing, but i dont know , this guy made me wanna buy this phone!! My confusion is over, but it sucks it dont have video, i guess ill just carry a camera in my pocket!

[JesusRocks198]

@MzJacksonKOP that's the only problem now the only verizon phones with video camera are the expensive ones that are too fancy for me grrr... oh well i'll live w/o it i suppose i might get this one in august it's free :-)

[MzJacksonKOP]

@JesusRocks198 I heard u had to have a "data" plan now wit all "mutimedia" phones.. :/

[JesusRocks198]

@MzJacksonKOP ok thanks :-)

[LIGHTNINGSTRIKE100]

@MzJacksonKOP yes but this isnt a multimedia phone

[anthony619fu]

this phone is on the way..

can someone please tell me if it fits in your pocket ok..

cause the way its bent like that it doesnt look like it would

thanx

[chickenyfood123]

@anthony619fu oh it does. its totally fine.

[JamiieEriicax3]

@anthony619fu Yeah it does fit. When you turn it to the music player side its becomes straight. On only bends when its on the texting side.

[spikeman23]

This guy sounds like neil from family guy.

[oweltech]

something is wrong with my sd card

[Kristian2164]

I really want this phone, but i'm stuck with the Samsung Freeform from metro

[Splendaboy2]

Does it have a built in recorder so i can record stuff???

[gamerdude309]

my sister wants to know what the name of the first song you played in the whole video was

[F007Trace]

Shiny Toy Guns - RocketShip

[Rockerboy3872]

embarrassing music taste dude haha

[HL2NoLie]

Bullet?

[Motovader72]

I guess it's too much bother to mention CALL QUALITY?

[leonkennedy74]

@Motovader72 The phone has jack shit to do with the call quality. Your quality is based on the carrier.

[44444demon44444]

hey um i got soem questions..

i saw the razzle on verizons website and it said it was 69.99 and then online discount was -69.99 which then means free. i was wondering wat i got to do to make it free.. and how much extra does unlimited text go for zerizon if i were to get it in a 1 yr contract and a 2 yr contract plz help me in anyway possible before i buy this phone =]

[josemonje111]

you just have to buy it online to get it free :)

well + the 2yr contract...

it'd be better if you went to your local verizon wireless store to ask these questions

[koolaidmin]

if i just ordered the razzle is the video update on it already?

[MooGoesTheDolphin]

yeah

[MooGoesTheDolphin]

also it takes video now but you need to goto a service station and get the update

[wrestlingisBEAST]

@MooGoesTheDolphin is this true cuz i just got it today

[MooGoesTheDolphin]

no urs is fully update most likey try to find the video function

[arielleferre]

what about headphones? is there a headph0ne jack?

[F007Trace]

Nope

[MooGoesTheDolphin]

@F007Trace huh? dude theres a 2.5mm headphone jack on the top all u need is a 5 dolalr apadter

[tofu4tortoise]

@F007Trace yes, at the top. 1.5 mm jack

[GIBSONANDSLASH]

@F007Trace WTF???????????????????????????­???

[purpleawesomness]

yeah there is but its small

[mizzrach14]

yep sure is

[JesusRocks198]

@arielleferre actually i think there is it's on the top but it wont work for regular headphones only the special ones you buy

[xplaztyk]

@arielleferre There's a 2.5mm jack, which isn't super great, but you can buy an adapter for it. It'll make up bulky with the adapter but that's what an IPOD is for :]

Anytime I ever listen to music it's through the speaker, or with my IPOD using headphones. That's just me.

[sickdude444]

do not get the rival it breaks alot, ive had three over the course of 6 months awful fone

[wrestlingisBEAST]

i have the same problem as boomkablamo...i cant decide which one to get??

[boomkablamo]

I'm trying to decide between this phone and the motorola rival. It appears the rival gets better reception and more ergonomic qwerty, but has a lot of software issues.

Is there any insight anyone could provide to me? perhaps someone who has owned both?

[robertrylko]

@boomkablamo i was reading reviews on the rival and people said it sucked i actually just ordered this

[boomkablamo]

too late now. didn't have a choice, had to get the rival. not givin me too many problems so far.

[carice74]

The Motorola Rival is a good phone but the screen turns white/black and breaks really easily. I've had five of them and one has broke the day that I got it. I opened it up a little bit hard and it went white. So I recommend the Razz;e/

[redoerr]

@boomkablamo I just had the rival... it was pretty good ... I broke it in the washer machine sadly... Texting is sorta easier i just got razzle today.. so ... The razzle to me looks just plain funner to use... BUT if you realllyy like videoing get the rival i guess.

[F007Trace]

15k Views and Climbing, and a 5 Star Rating!

Thanks Guys!

[333HELIOS]

My phone can turn the backlight completely off, so thats not a big deal 2me

[TJS678]

Does that swivel seem sturdy? Im afraid that if I were to sit down and it were to bend with my leg that it would snap

[brusman7007]

Great ! (:

Thanks so much for posting this .

I really needed it .

My LG enV 3 is freezing up really bad and this phones seems pretty great to get ! :D

[franella1]

Great review. Thanks.

[sinisterbunny1]

does it have threaded text messaging

[guitarplayer543]

hey if you have the qwerty in use if you hit the music button by accident will it start playing music? if anyone knows pleeeeeeze reply

[F007Trace]

Nope, Thanks for viewing.

[guitarplayer543]

thank you for making this video it really helped me make a decision

[chickenlovingdogOreo]

i want one:P

[outerglow]

I'm switching to Verizon from At&T, and was looking for a phone that would be either as good or better than my Propel! Thank you for this!

[TiffLeBlanc]

My bf is getting this phone, I looks pretty cool and it is awesome that it can play music while you txt. But I'm not too stoked about it not taking video.

[kmarieschill]

ok my dad just ordered it and it's coming tmro or tuesday and i was wondering...DO you hav to hav internet to get pictures???

[mariahhx301]

@kmarieschill

nopee ! :D

[BASEBALLINTEXAS]

im eligible for upgrade on 2/23/10 and i was thinking about getting this phone but is it true that it is free with a 2 year extension contract

[F007Trace]

yes

[smile32441]

yup!

[prettybabygirl99]

i got that phone its pretty cool i had it since 2008

[F007Trace]

how could you have it since 08 it came out in october of 09?

[Britannic1915]

I wanna order mine off of Craigslist or eBay!

[harvedixon00]

i just ordered one off the internet i cant wait for it to get here

[carfanactic112]

how long did it take 2 get ur phone??

[Gun00]

@harvedixon00 mee toooooo!!!!!

[yourfacelsl]

How many messages can be in the inbox until its full?

[Judgement1106]

This phone is pretty cool. No video, but who cares? its a damn phone not a videocam. Call quality is good.

[peachpewp]

shows how important that phone was to them hahahaha

[peachpewp]

what kind of idiot would design a phone without video? seriously whoever is in charge of designing phones this bad should lose their job. im a college student and could come up with a better design than this piece of junk. oh and thanks for a high quality camera as well. its pretty sad when the phone speaker has better quality

[F007Trace]

Yea i sent it back and verizon lost it.

[TacetFiat]

I think a phone without video is more intended for adults, not college students and teens. He said it's supposed to replace the blitz, and I'm pretty sure that didn't have video either.. but you'd think they'd add it if it's an "updated" phone.

[toadillon]

well dude you want a phone not a video camera if so, then go and get a video camera not a phone.

[YaoiFanForEv]

How toput music on it?

[SamIsNotSuperCool]

most phones lock after the backlight is off

[jakea7x100]

[STCLASSOF2013]

does any plan have unlimted texting

[F007Trace]

Kind of. Unlimited to Verizon Customers and an additional 5000 messages (That inclued video and picture) per month, about $20

[vcsweetpea]

How is the voice/call reception on the Razzle? CNet said it had poor reception (only 1-2 bars in high coverage areas) and poor call quality, what do others think?  I'm thinking of getting this phone, so I'm curious about this. Thanks!

[freshplates]

Thanks for the video. Will be upgrading tomorrow and I'll probably go with this.

[coollharley]

im getting my razzle tommorow!!!! i will let you all know how super duper awesome the phhone iszzzz!!! (ps: i meant to put 2 h's in the word phone!)

[F007Trace]

Nope.

[Xxgam3fr33kxX]

does it take data when you put the music on the fone and when u play it does it take data

[F007Trace]

If i understand your question correctly then yes.

[raleyfish]
