Motorola’s original Razr V3 is one of the most iconic phones of all time. When it was released in 2004, it looked like it belonged to the future, thanks to its sleek design and anodized aluminum finish. The blue backlit keyboard, etched from a single piece of metal, only added to the appeal. And people lined up around the block …
