Get Inked on Your Motorola RAZR

By Ian Bell Updated October 18, 2006

The two new RAZR phones will feature tattoo-inspired designs by the lead artist Ami James from TLC’s hit show Miami Ink.

One of the RAZR V3 phones will come in a dark pearl gray color and will feature a Dragon Tattoo while the other will be available in magenta and will feature a Cherry Blossom Tattoo. Both of the Tattoo designs will be laser etched onto the aluminum surface of the phones.

“Our customers have come to expect exclusive, cutting-edge handsets from T-Mobile. These trend-setting Miami Ink Collection phones are sure to surpass those expectations, by screaming style and taking individuality to a new level,” said Michael Gallelli, head of product marketing, T-Mobile USA. “The dragon is an inspiring design that exudes energy and excitement, while the cherry blossom design radiates sophistication.”

"Drawing the tattoo designs for Motorola was an opportunity to bring my art to people everywhere,” said Ami James. "Now, people who aren’t into tattooing their bodies can get one on their phone instead."

Spec-wise, the Motorola RAZR V3 will be just like every other V3 out there and comes with MPEG 4 video playback, Picture Caller ID, Bluetooth and other features.

Both phones will be available from T-Mobile onOctober 30^th. We will post images once we get them. There is no mention of price at this time.

How to get developer options on your Android phone

Android phones are very customizable, but you can always go slightly further by diving into the developer options.

Motorola Razr Plus vs. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4: which is the best flip phone?

Renders of the Motorola Razr Plus and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 next to each other.

Foldable phones are making a huge splash right now as more and more smartphone manufacturers start trying their hands at making foldable tech. There are currently two main foldable camps: tablet-like folding phones and flip phone foldables. While larger folding smartphones bring a lot to the table as half-steps of sorts between regular smartphones and tablets, one of the main selling points for flip phone foldables is their portability — especially in the current market, which seems to be constantly moving to larger and larger devices.

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 and the Motorola Razr Plus are arguably the two best flip phones on the market right now. Because both phones are so excellent, it can be tough to know which one to buy when looking at them at face value. The Razr Plus, since it's a newer device with a larger cover screen? The Z Flip 4 since Samsung has a much better reputation for quality? No matter what questions you're asking, here's everything you need to know about how the Galaxy Z Flip 4 compares to the Motorola Razr Plus.

Don’t miss your chance to get this Samsung tablet for $120 this weekend

alaxy Tab A7 Lite

While the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 doesn't quite make the list of best tablets, it's still a great device if you need the basics and are on a tight budget. In fact, you can grab it from Samsung for even less than it usually goes for; $120 rather than $160, which is a significant discount relative to its price.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite
Behind the screen, you'll find a MediaTek MT8768N, an entry-level CPU with eight cores and enough for the A7 lite to function relatively well for your everyday tasks. The 8.7-inch screen runs an 800 x 1340 pixels resolution, which isn't the highest, but it's more than enough for watching stuff online and Zoom meetings. Given the smaller screen size, you likely won't notice the lower resolution, so it's certainly not a dealbreaker for a budget device. In terms of storage, you get 32GBs, and you can upgrade that with up to a 1TB MicroSD, which the Tab A7 Lite can easily handle, although going for a cloud storage service might help save a little on that if you have an unlimited plan.
