Verizon Razzle (TXT8030) – the Stylish Twisting Messaging Phone

Offering a unique swivel design, the Verizon Razzle is a feature phone that lets you enjoy both messaging and music listening on the go. With a QWERTY keyboard, V CAST Music with Rhapsody, stereo Bluetooth and great messaging options, the Razzle makes a smart and stylish handset ahead of the pack.

The most eye-catching feature of the Razzle is its swivel bar with music controls on one side and a full QWERTY keyboard on the other. When you turn the keyboard to the front, the bar will tilt upward slightly for you to type in a more comfortable way. Above the bar is a 2.2-inch TFT display that shows 262,000 colors and 220x176-pixel resolution. The phone weighs 3.8 ounces and measures 4.5" high by 2.4" wide by 0.5 inch thick, which is relatively thin and lightweight.

Taking advantage of the physical keyboard, the Razzle gives users full messaging capabilities including text and multimedia messaging, as well as instant messaging for AIM, Windows Live Messenger and Yahoo Messenger. For email, you can access your personal email accounts from Yahoo, Windows Live, AOL and Verizon.net using mobile Web email.

The Razzle’s music features will also satisfy music lovers. Using the music controls on the swivel bar, you can quickly launch the built-in music player that supports MP3 and WMA formats. The phone is also compatible with Verizon’s V Cast Music with Rhapsody service, which means you can load music from your PC to the phone, and enjoy music on the go. Moreover, the phone allows you to multitask with the music playing on the background.

Additionally, the Razzle is packed with lots of advanced features, like GPS with VZ Navigator for audible turn-by-turn directions, stereo Bluetooth, voice commands, USB mass storage and web browsing. You also get a 2.5mm headset jack and a 1.3-megapixel camera, though there is no built-in camcorder. The Razzle comes with only 52MB internal memory, but accommodates a microSD memory card up to 16GB for you to store as many songs as you want.

Overall, the Verizon Razzle is an easy-to-use handset for the youth considering its affordable price; it not only comes in a sleek and functional twisting design, but also combines some nice messaging and multimedia features.
