Amazon.com Product Description

If you thought the RAZR V3 was cool, you'll love the latest addition to Motorola's line of super-chic, super powerful phones, the SLVR L7. Packing all the great functionality of the RAZR V3, plus a few more bells and whistles like removable memory, the SLVR L7 adopts a thin, candy-bar form factor that is sure to turn heads. The SLVR L7 also adds support for iTunes, allowing you to play, sort, store, and manage your music right on the phone. With long-range Bluetooth, support for video playback, a VGA (640 x 480) camera, and a gorgeous color screen, the quad-band SLVR L7 is a great way to get the most out of your Cingular service.

<small><b>The plot thins: The SLVR L7 is less than half an inch thick.</b> <small></td></tr></table> <B>Design</B>
At less than a half-inch thick, the SLVR L7 redefines the ultrathin phone category. A large 176 x 220 color display with 262,000 colors resides above the handset's backlit control pad, which is precision cut from a single sheet of nickel-plated copper alloy. The VGA camera lens is housed on the rear of the phone, while up/down buttons are placed on the left side. There's also a highly accessible mini-USB port on the right side of the phone for data synchronization and music transfer, as well as a covered slot for inserting a microSD or TransFlash memory card. The phone comes pre-installed with a 512 MB card--plenty of room to hold up to 100 songs.

<B>Calling Features</B>
The SLVR L7's internal phone book can hold up to 1,000 contacts, and the phone's picture ID system allows you to assign pictures to your most common callers. It also supports polyphonic ringtones as well as music 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, and more ringtones can be downloaded from Cingular Wireless's MEdia service. And 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, and voice-activated dialing makes calling your friends, family, and associates as easy as saying their names.

Because the SLVR L7 is Bluetooth enabled, wireless headsets can be configured with the phone for total hands-free operation.

<B>Messaging, Internet, and Tools</B>
The SLVR L7 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 supported via AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, and ICQ, and the phone also ships with a built-in e-mail client with support for POP3 and SMTP protocols (Cingular messaging charges apply). Plus, there's a built-in Web browser for MEdia downloads and mobile Web browsing. Cingular's MEdia service lets you receive and send e-mails, read news headlines, get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more. iTap text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier to enter words and text on handsets, is built in to the unit--a plus for mobile e-mail and text messaging users.

<small><b>The SLVR L7 seamlessly connects to iTunes software on your PC or Mac. iTunes software on the phone gives you complete control of your music.</b> <small></td></tr></table> Getting on the Internet is easy with the SLVR L7, as it supports Cingular's GSM-based Wireless Internet Express service. When used with a Cingular data plan and the phone's Bluetooth or USB data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs.

A number of handy software tools are bundled with the SLVR L7, including a voice memo recorder, a calculator, a calendar, and an alarm clock. Use the phone's Bluetooth capability to set up a wireless link with a Bluetooth accessory or to connect to a computer or handheld device to exchange and synchronize data. The phone also supports the SyncML PC synchronization standard, which can be used with Motorola's Mobile Phone Tools PC application to manage and synchronize contacts, calendar, and other data with your PC.

<B>Imaging and Entertainment</B>
With 5 MB of internal memory storage, plus a memory expansion slot, the SLVR L7 shines in the entertainment department. The phone's VGA camera features a 4x digital zoom, as well as video capture capabilities (up to 30 seconds in length). Capture stills and then send them to your friends via MMS messaging or e-mail, or to your PC via USB or Bluetooth. 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 SLVR L7 also supports custom graphics for wallpapers, so you can dress up the phone to suit your mood.

At its heart, the SLVR L7 is a music phone, and thanks to integration with iTunes, it makes a great digital music player. Using the included software, sync the SLVR L7 with your iTunes library on your PC or Mac and listen to up to 100 of your favorite songs while you're on the go. iTunes software on the phone lets you shuffle your music library or select songs by artist, album, or playlist. Built-in stereo speakers let you listen while you work or play, and a stereo headset jack makes it easy to jam out in private with the included earbuds.

Last but not least, support for gaming is built into the phone and games are available for download via the Cingular MEdia service.

<B>Vital Statistics</B>
The Motorola SLVR L7 weighs 3.5 ounces and measures 4.5 x 1.9 x .45 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 6 hours of digital talk time and up to 17 days of digital standby time. It runs on the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS frequencies. The phone comes with a one-year limited warranty.

Great form factor, lousy performance, mediocre software........2007-05-10

I eagerly awaited this phone, but when I got it, heard the "whah-whuuuuuh" trumpet sound in my head not too long after owning it.

Speakerphone: LOUSY; half the people I talk to cannot hear me when I'm on it (although I can hear them quite well). I usually hold it about a foot from my mouth (and had done so with other speakerphone models just fine).

Headset: GOOD; "stock" headset's cord is too short (I'm sure by design so they can upsell you), although it has a nice big button that you can use to hang up (handy so you don't have to look down, esp. while driving). It has 2 earphones, which is good for stereo sound, even when you're talking on it (it is an iTunes phone, after all). Sound quality is decent.

Software: MEDIOCRE. I would expect more from a 2007-model phone, but alas, it is the clunky java interface motorola/cingular has been selling for at least 5 years. For example, 1. does not display time of day when you're on a call. 2. when you miss a call and caller leaves a voicemail, there are two separate messages. One for "new voicemail", then after you check that by calling or cancelling, you get the "missed call" message. Duh! If there's a new voicemail, it probably means I missed a call! You have to push too many buttons in order to find out WHO called you. Lazy programming and poor user experience.

iTunes: GOOD; But, you cannot use an iTunes song as your ringtone. It may as well be two separate devices. Not well integrated. One cool feature is that you can actually listen to iTunes songs via the speakerphone-- a feature that not even iPods has. Other reviewers have much more detail on the iTunes (lack of) features, but since I don't use them that often, I'll stay quiet.

Accessories: I bought the static film cover for the screen. It works great! I also tried the clamshell clear plastic cases, which add a little to the thickness. They sucked. One broke within 3 days of owning, and it didn't really protect it much (compare to an Agent18 case for an iPod, which protects that like a kevlar body suit).

I would recommend this if you're not going to have or don't already own an iPod (I do own one, so I rarely use the iPod feature of this device.)

Good phone, could be better.......2007-05-06

The SLVR L7 has a nice sturdy feel and is light weight. iTunes sound great and is nice for those who don't want to carry multiple devices. The only things I don't like about the phone are the ear speaker volume and the alarm clock not having not a selection for weekdays/weekends; it is either on or off. The speaker phone is loud and clear, and so far, the battery life has been great (charged 3 times in about 3 weeks, with a lot of music play and a decent amount of phone calls).

Nice try .......2007-04-28

After reading through many reviews, I narrowed down my choices to two phones: this one, or Sony Ericsson W810i. I bught this one. A few hours of testing has concluded the following problems or areas in need of improvement:

* Phone book - cell phone/home phone/work phone for the same person all show up as seperate entries.
* You can't use a music file as a ringtone.--some user reviews say you could, but I have not figured it out. The free ringer tones come with the phone suck! (Anyone can give detailed instruction??)
* Music syncing requires the USB cable; it won't work over bluetooth.
* Sound quality is below average. When using the headphone, you can hear stat noise when changing track. The volume from the headphone sounds much much louder than the speakerphone or the phone, so loud that it is almost unbearable.
* User manual is badly writen.

Everything else about the phone works just as expected: key pad (about right size), iTune (nice), camera (decent), wireless sync (fine). Sony Ericsson W810i does have a better feel in the hand. But that may be just my impression.

In conclusion:

If not because I like my iTune, I would have bought the Sony W810i (at least for a better feel in my hand). In a couple of years, I think I will really want an iPhone, or whatever that can combine great design, outstanding quality, and integrating capability. This Motorola SLVR L7 has left so much of these unaccomplished. I rate it 3 out of 5, just at the threshold of me keeping it for now.

Good Phone....Need Tips? Mp3 Ringtones.? Where to Buy..?.......2007-02-24

I just got this phone yesterday. I'm 14 and this is my first phone...

I bought this phone at BestBuy...It was only $30$. (Just a safer way to buy...not online.)

You can use Mp3 songs on the Phone as Ringtones. I dont think you can use itune songs for it...I havent tryed it yet.

If you have Music ready to put as a ringtone on your computer just follow these instructions.

First...
Plug Your Phone into the Computer w/ your USB cable (make sure it is tight/secured well)

Second- go to my computer on your computer and look for some sign of your phone.

-then click it and there should be atleast one folder there. Click MOBILE and a list of others should show up

-There should be a folder Audio Put Your Music in there.
Now For the Phone...
-Get the clear screen on your phone & hit "-" and go to my stuff
-Click Sounds
-Click "-" once again
-there should be someother than Phone which you click then find your music and click "-" (once Once again) and put MOVE and put it into phone
-Go back to Phone and you should see a list and your track should be at the top and click "-" to Make as a ringtone

Sometimes if might be to big so try a shorter one
make sure you have a memory card
If all else fails call Motorola, the number should be right inside the manual. They have good service unlike others....

To get cheap accessories i would get it on ebay (not sure about amazon, am looking soon

Hope it Helped!

SLVR L7.......2007-02-12

I received my L7 from Amazon.com for $[...]. i had to extend my contract with cingular but it was well worth it.

This phone is great. The sound quality from itunes is amazing, although the upload time is horrendous, it took upwards of an hour to upload 85 songs.

The camera is surprisingly good for the phone also. The sound quality with calls is great as well. i haven't tried to connect a bluetooth headset to it yet.

I user interface was hard to get used to at first, but after a day or so I got used to it.

Despite what other people said in their reviews, I don't find the key pad small at all.
