I didn't notice better range, but then again, I live in Metro Des Moines, so reception is rarely an issue. :)

Hmm, the phone is a Motorola v323. No, it's not flashy like a Razor (or whatever it's called), but I don't want a phone that will take pictures, play music, wash dishes, mow the lawn, etc. Personally, the more bells and whistles something has, the greater the chances of something going wrong.

A camcorder battery is a little different. It's possible that the makers actually put a decent charging circuit in it. Also, cell phones are kinda cheap considering the technology in them and the size. The makers probably cut corners where possible to keep prices lower while still offering the list of features they have.
