    I got the chocolate phone and I LOVE it. The touch-screen is a little hard to get used to but once you get the hang of it, its really easy. I have over a hundred songs on it and I really don’t need my ipod any more. It’s great and I definitely recommend it!

    I have this phone and i love it to death! This is probably the coolest phone i have ever seen. I don’t see any use for my MP3 player anymore.

    I am unsure which is better?

    Chocolate is way more better than the Razr. I have the chocolate and my friend has the razr but the chocolate is far better than the razr
