Motorola Rapture VU30 (Verizon Wireless)

By (cnet.com)

The Motorola Rapture VU30 has an attractive, well-built design with spacious and intuitive controls. Call quality was decent.

The Motorola Rapture VU30's volume level is rather low and multimedia performance was uneven. Also, the camera lacks a flash.

The Motorola Rapture VU30 offers an attractive blend of design and features, but it slips up a bit in performance.

"Excellent Battery life, Excellent Reception"

By fishkeeper87 (cnet.com)

An excellent phone for making calls. I haven'... 

This phone has an excellent battery and also has excellent reception. I had an older motorola and had good reception, but this one gets reception where the other one didn't. I have yet to see the dreaded "searching for signal".

The feel of typing on the phone takes a while to get used to because the keys don't stick up, but that is the price you pay for having a skinny phone.

"Pretty, but cheap and buggy"

By patnesha11 (cnet.com)

I previously had a Krazr and got the Rapture ... 

It's nice to look at. Battery life is great.

Cheaply made. Smudges/scratches easily. Camera is sub-par and location of (flashless) lens is such that your finger is always in the way. Freezes/turns off by itself regularly.
