Help Problem Sending Pics

So I have had my Razr M since the week it came out. I love everything about the phone except that it takes FOREVER to send pictures through text or email. When I say forever I mean it can literally take weeks for an email to successfully send with only 1 picture in it. It does not matter if I am using a Gmail or Email app through different email addresses. This is with the phone receiving full bars of WiFi and have tested it on multiple WiFi networks with the same result.

When I send a picture through text messaging it routinely takes several minutes to hours to send, even when WiFi is off and I have full bars and 4G LTE. Long story short, I assumed maybe this was normal until I used a Droid Bionic for the last few days while my Razr M was misplaced and this thing sends pictures in a matter of seconds regardless if it is a text or email.

I have gone through tons of threads and haven’t solved the problem. Any ideas guys, or do I just need to take advantage of the warranty and get a new one?
 
That is a problem that would test the patience of any mortal. Since it involves email too I would warranty the phone.
 
I've emailed and texted pictures several times, mostly via my home wifi, and have never had any problems. I agree that you might try getting another phone.
 
Mine own't send pics(via text) over WiFi. Strange but it doesn't. If I start over WiFi, I simply delete the message and switch to data and start a NEW message and it sends almost immediately.
 
Definitely sounds like I am making a visit to Verizon. Thanks for the advice guys. I am actually considering sticking with the Bionic if I can't figure this one out.
 
Just to add some closure in case somebody else reads this thread in the future, got my replacement phone and it sends pics in a flash. Thanks again for the advice.
