The Motorola SLVR L7 comes in a dynamic image but lock of interesting features. Though I might say that this is better than Motorola V3 and V3C, however its quite to say that SLVR L7 has similarity from Samsung MM-A900. Nowadays, Motorola is starting to design with a new revolution candy bar version of RAZR, this slim sexy style mobile phone (SLVR L7) is more on physical features but sad to say that the company forget the other factors that consumers are looking for, and that is the functions and feature parts of the phone.

SLVR L7 holds 1,000 contacts that can be customize and add more information like e-mail address, birthdates, postal address and can save up to six contact numbers. You can both assign photos and ring tones of your choice. Download and upload instantly with its Bluetooth technology features, you can also personalize the themes, wallpapers, screensavers, message tone, colour skin and menu style, and if you’re a Java enthusiast let SLVR L7 entertain you with its installed games including Jewel Quest, Tetris and Block Breaker Deluxe.

The cleanliness and clarity of voice calling is like your only talking to the person right beside you. And this mobile phone can be categorized in the line of great audio quality, you can even compare this one to iPod Nano. At then end of the day, I might say that the total performance and features of this handset is “average” though you might get irritate when using the keypads, just give it more practice to familiarize the functions and shortcut keys.

PC Magazine Reviews:

Bottom Line: Looks and feels great, but this is the vanguard of design, not of technology.
Â
Pros: So pretty. iTunes is easy to use.
Â
Cons: Quiet speakerphone. Poor camera. Slow data transfers. Strange headphone connector.

CNET Reviews:

The good: The Motorola Slvr L7 has an attractive overall design. It also comes with an integrated iTunes player, Bluetooth, a sharp display, a TransFlash card slot, and a speakerphone, as well as solid call and music-audio quality.

The bad: The Motorola Slvr L7′s iTunes player is sluggish, and it’s burdened with too many usage restrictions. The phone is further hampered by a low-resolution VGA camera, a lack of support for EDGE, tricky controls, no FM radio or stereo speakers, and little integrated memory.

The bottom line: Motorola’s Slvr L7 puts a prettier face on the iTunes phone, but its low-resolution camera, its sluggish music-player performance, and the limitations on the iTunes usability are big distractions.
