LG enV Phone (Verizon Wireless)

I love this phone.
Like: I can hear others perfectly.
I have no problem hearing the phone ring (if the ring is at a normal volume tone).
I love the texting abilities, it is so easy that now I get frustrated using my husband's phone.
It is very sturdy.
Battery life is great.

Don't like: no selection in ring styles and those that are there pretty much stink. My hubby found a way around it that if he records a video of the music we want as a ring he can send it to me and I can save it as a ring.

To take a picture straight you have to hold the camera sideways.

Voice recognition isn't great, but I haven't bothered to try to use it much.





You do not need to sign up for the e-mail service to send email. That service fully synchronizes with e-mail on your computer and is way overpriced in my opinion.

To send an email you simply go to the send a message area and then select text message and put in the email address to send it to.
Try the free program at Bitpim dot org which will allow you to sync with outlook calendar as well as backup and restore contact list and also import any sound file to use as a ringtone.

One observation I made that no one else mentioned is that the internal speakers do not sound as good as the Previous V model. That is probably because of the top of the unit not being as deep so the sound is flatter. It is still good enough though. I use my own Shure E2C with adapter from 3.5mm to the LG's 2.5mm. (4 connection plug) Make sure you get the right connector with 4 sections on the plug. A standard 2.5 to 3.5 mm adapter will not work. You will only hear sound in one side.

I previously had the predecessor to this phone, The V and loved it. Unfortunately it was stolen a few months ago and I was using an old phone in the meantime. I'm sick of the old phone and really want to get the enV, my roommate has it and it's even cooler than the old one. However, my problem is the policy stated on Amazon's site for the Equipment Discount of $250 states it's "for either activating a new, non-substitute line of service or renewing an existing line of service". When I actually tried to purchase the phone and called Amazon, they told me that with Verizon you can't do a renewal...well then don't state on your website that you can!!! Amazon is being misleading and stating a discount they apparently can't provide. Had I not called and confirmed this twice I would have been charged $250 to my credit card (the 1st time they were going to work with me and asked me to call Verizon to confirm I wouldn't incur charges from them, the 2nd time apparently they changed their minds, and gave no real inclination that they would remedy the situation on the website). Lesson learned: don't trust what you read on Amazon's website.

I expect a phone to be a phone first and anything else second. Although this phone is fantastic for texting, it is mediocre at best when functioning as a phone. The sound is quite poor and not at all crisp. It sounds like you're listening through a speaker phone at all times. My wife has one as well and has commented on the poor sound. I find myself constantly asking others to repeat what they've just said to me.

The only reason I give it 3 stars is because of it's texting ease.

Although not to this exact phone I would like to warn any folks out there who are considering purchasing service or anything from Verizon NOT to. Their customer service is the absolute worst of any of the carriers imo. Their reps are rude, they change information each time they talk with you and don't deliver upon their promises. The phone may be fine, but the service of this carrier is just absolutely horrendous. It's not always about the phone; it's about the service provider as well. Verizon does not stand behind its products and after spending a minimum of 10 hours for the last 6 months every month without satisfactory resolution I feel compelled to warn others who may be considering them

This product by not only apperance but with function is very intelligent. The handy camera in the back a also sold me on the phone. One turn off for me though was the size of the phone, but is easily made up with the numerous features it posseses. If you enjoy txt messaging, camera phones, multi media viewing, or phones that open with a key board i recomend further viewing this product.

I bought this (last week- thursday)in the verizon store for $udontwannaknohowmuch. But I am happy with it..so far . I know it is too early to boast but I think it is cute and fun to text. It reminds me of a sidekick that I wanted for a looooong time, but my parents wouldnt get it for me.
I bought this off the plan and it cost me a lot but I am happy with it.
For those that want to check their emails and stuff with this phone it will cost you a $20 subscription and the games are like $5-10 (so I didnt get either of them for now) but overall if you are into pic taking (I ONLY take pics of sceneries) I would recommend something cheaper. The real fun thing is the texting keyboard, which I like. I would recommend something cheaper but the phone overall is pretty and honestly it is just for looks.

I've been using the enV for a few weeks and I'm very happy with it. The QWERTY keypad is great for txt messages and adding contacts. The front display is indeed small, but it's big enough to see an incoming call or choose a phone number. I use the inner keypad 95% of the time. My only complaint about the phone itself is that the call quality is average at best.

Here are a few other things to keep in mind....

* You do not need the $30 essentials music pack to transfer music if you have a card reader. Just remember to put the micro SD card in the enV first and format it before putting music on it (the format puts 4 folders on the card)
- the phone DOES recognize more than 1GB - my 2GB card works fine.
- if not all your songs are recognized, shorten the file name. I wrote to tech support who responded that there's a limit on the file name length. The fix worked. (Yes, it's a pain to have to do it.)

* In previous years I found some really great discounts on cell plans on the Internet. Now it seems that everyone offers the same pricing structure, which was a disappointment.

*The Amazon price varies dramatically, so if you don't need the phone immediately, watch the price for a few weeks. It's $99 as I write, it was free with rebates a couple of weeks ago, and I got $30 back after rebates when I bought it several weeks ago. (Phone + plan)

* Pay attention to the screens in the checkout process. I just wanted the phone and calling plan, but the default selections on the screens leading to the final purchase would have added $20 here, $10 there for things I didn't want. To Amazon's credit, they did have the best overall price - I checked numerous sites before deciding to buy it here.

* Verizon has a lot of extra fees if you want to use most of the phone's cool features. They even charge an extra $1.95 per month to get a detailed list of all the phone calls you make! These charges can really add up. It might be wise to call Verizon and ask if the things you want to do with the phone cost extra so you know what the actual monthly bill would look like.

* If you use an IM program like AIM and don't buy an extra txt message package you'll be charged $.15 to send and $.10 to receive each IM (every time you press "Enter.")
- In addition to the txt charges, just having IM programs open in the background use air minutes....so it's fine to have it on nights and weekends if you're on an unlimited plan for those hours. If not, you'll burn through your monthly allotment of minutes in a day or two!

In summary, the phone is great but watch out for additional charges incurred to make good use of the phone's capabilities.





ARGH, I really really wanted to love this phone but I just can't. My husband and I bought these phones for Christmas. We love the text messaging....sooooo easy....but the actual phone sucks. I can't talk to him when there is anyone at all talking nearby me because he can hear the background noise louder than he hears me. So all he hears from me is chopped up syllables while he can hear the entire conversation of the person who is clear across the room from me. And it is the same for me when he is near anyone else.

I am so embarrassed to talk to anyone of importance on this phone because they truly cannot understand a word I say. I lost an interview possibility because of it.

Verizon...get your heads out of your behinds and fix the phone, it is an embarrassment. By far the worst phone I have ever owned and I have been a Verizon customer for many many years.

After semi-drooling over my brother's original LG V-Phone he bought about 2 years ago, I finally got the EnV as my first cellphone. While the enV's predecessor made history with being an "all in one" true cellphone, it doesn't stand up to it's new brother. The enV packs as much as it can possible into a slim, VERY sleek package, whihc will surely pay you back with double-takes and as advertised, envy. While I'm not one who enjoys being followed around by green-eyed monsters, I still appreciate every little goody this phone offers: QWERTY keyboard, 2 mp pictures, video, microSD (up to 4 gb!), huge screen, mp3 playback; the enV is a great phone for tech enthusiasts. If you're someone looking for a no-frills, take-for-granted phone, then the enV is one to save your money for, that is unless you're buying it off amazon ;) (thanks amazon for the GREAT prices!) Although, if you're one who is looking more for email usage, a blackberry may be more your style, as the email service with verizon can be more expensive than blackberry.
Overall this is a fantastic phone that offers loads of fun, "let me see that" features. My only personal letdown so far is the inability to play my own mp3 clips (Verizon wireless tones doesn't include Radiohead :( ), but they do offer a decent library of call/ringback tones. Get this phone if you're: a) a big texter, b) a techie, or c) someone who wants as much as they can get in a well-sized phone.

I had purchased two phones on Amazon.com that indicated have Verizon Wireless's rebates. I followed the link and entered serial number and found no rebate. I called VZW and they don't care about purchasing made on here. I called on Amazon and told the problem was on the Verizon side. After more than 10 calls, Amazon agreed to give me partial rebate, but asked me to wait four weeks to receive it. I waited more than four months, still nothing.

Could of Been Decent But....Verizon F*CKS it up again with the menu style. Doesnt Verizon get it???!!!!!! No customer wants that standard User Interface that they have planted on every Verizon phone. If the brand is LG, Samsung, or Motorola it would be nice 2 use the interface that they actually built specifically for the phone instead of subjecting everyone 2 that awful interface of Verizon standard. Other then that i dont really have much complaints except the front screen could of been bigger. I am pleased so far but then again ive only had the phone for 2 hours.

Everything about this phone is awesome. The quality of the phone is much better than my last Motorola phone. I love the text pad and have had zero problems with the phone. If you're a text messaging type of person this is for you. The sound quality on the phone when playing music is also good.

My 2 issues with the phone: The vibrate style cant be changed. On my Moto phone I could chose between different vibrates(2 short, 1 short, 1 long, short long, etc). I also would like it if it had cut copy and paste in the messaging features. These are really insignificant though.

I would highly recommend the phone. It's a wonderful size and very light weight. 5 Stars.

Overall this phone is pretty good but misses in a few areas. I'll compare it to my old Motorola V710. The downsides of my old V710 were it's large size, poor camara, and marginal sound quality. The pro's of the V710 were excellent speaker phone, super voice recognition, great reception, and good battery life. Here's what I've learned on the LG enV so far:

PROS: Added some updates 4/5 after 3 weeks of use.
excellent front and main screen. The main screen is excellent.
best camara/video I've ever seen on a phone. comparable to my Sony 6+ mp camara. Really. Good lense cover.
Nice features/software. Menus make sense.
Battery life - seems reasonable - jury is still out. 4/5 - battery life is excellent.
Love the notepad and calander features. Coupled with the handy keyboard it is actually very usable. Good chance this will eliminate my PDA. 4/5...after using for a few weeks. I really like the keyboard. All appointments and alarms are now on my cell phone.
Sound quality is very good through the ear speaker and the dual speakers when open.
Vibrate mode could break concrete up...strong!
4/5- discovered the "stand alone mode" for airplane operation. Allows you to listen to music on airplanes.
I bought the 2G memory card and did NOT buy the verizon music essential kit like others advised. Just drag and drop the mp3 files in the right folder and you've got instant music. I used the micro SD with the SD adapter that plugs into my printers card reader.

CONS:
Voice recognition is not as good as my old Motorola V710. Through the built in microphone it seems to struggle picking up and figuring out what to do. (same on my kids LG phones) Not sure how it will work with a bluetooth setup. V710 was much, much better. 4/5 - After using for a few weeks now...yep, it's voice recognition is not as good with the built in microphone or when using a wired earpiece. This is my biggest disappointment with the phone. Clearly not as good as my old phone.
It won't allow short cuts all the way to the lowest menu item. For example, I wanted a short cut to the tip calculator and it won't let you do that. Too deep in the menus. Seems to allow short cuts to some items but not all of them? There are about 2 items I want to add a shortcut to and you can't.
Speaker phone only works with the enV open. Awkward to start and marginal voice recognition with the built in microphone. Again, not as good as the V710 but ok. I had to open the V710 too but it's shape was easier to handle. With the enV open it is more awkward to hold and set on the console of my car.
4/5 - I need to confirm this but...the earpiece volume for the LG/verizon head phones is too loud at the lowest setting. There is a setting on the phone but from what I can tell it is not lowering the volume on the headphones. ie- in the tools section there is a setting and then you adjust it again on the side. At it's lowest setting it's too loud. Next lowest is mute.
4/5...lastly, from what I can tell, with the phone open as you listen to the speaker phone you can't adjust the volume level since the side buttons are unaccessible.

Annoying items...but can live with:
No vibrate and then ring. Vibrate only or vibrate and ring at the same time. My V710 would give you the chance to react to the vibrate first prior to ringing. 4/5- ring volume isn't loud enough for me. The speakers are inside when the phone is closed. The ringer isn't as loud as my old V710...
Why doesn't Verizon give more stock ringtones!! I work in a professional office and 80% of the stock ringtones I would never use.
Can't rotate pictures on the phone taken with the camara. With the camara closed (front screen) the orientation isn't the same as what you would want when looking at the main screen when it's open. It would be really helpful to be able to rotate.
4/5 - update, I liked the ability to add contacts to certain groups. Then I found out there must be a limit to how many contacts you can add to a group like business, family etc...the kids label friends with "verizon", verizon so they know who is included in the "IN" plan. I was going through my 50-60 contacts and putting them in the groups of family or business when I starting getting an error that said I can't add any more to a group!
4/5 - I'm now annoyed that it appears the headphone jack is something unique. I bought an adapter from the 3/16" jack to I think its to 1/8" and it doesn't work right. So there must be something proprietary to force you to use and LG setup just to connect my earphones.


Overall, I really like the phone. It seems smaller than it looks. Feels much smaller than my old V710. I was looking for something to replace my PDA and I think the keyboard will do this. My daughter loves it for text messaging but I don't do much text messaging. It's handy when shopping to take a photo of something like furniture and take a photo of the price info too. We've entered diminsional information of our living room or TV for fitting furniture into the notepad section for recalling when we need it.

Overall great phone...hope they update the software to fix the annoying items. 4/5...still love the phone. So close to perfection...

I bought this phone two weeks ago. I noticed that the phone will shut off itself without any warning. Initially I thought the power key may be touched. However, today I put this phone on the table and it still turned off itself when battery is >80%. I believe there is a bug in this phone. I am returning this phone to Amazon.

Apr. 05: Amazon's service is great and sent me a replacement unit before I sent back the bad one. The new one seems OK. However, it shows "player error" when I hit "my music". At least the first one works. Anyway, I will not ask for another replacement. I just had an impression the QA of this model is not very good.

I would have to agree with the majority that this phone is absolutely excellent. I just love everything about it. It looks nice, it has an outstanding camera, plays music/videos, long battery life (to me), and it makes texting soooooo easy. I upgraded to this from the Lg VX8100, which was a music phone, and my only tiny tiny drawback is that the speakers on this phone plays music reasonably loud and yet when you put headphones/earpieces in, it's suddenly way too loud, but that's not a major problem when there's so much positive about the phone. I'd recommend it even for the person who doesn't text or take pictures. Very solid. Verizon has a winner now.

I got this phone about a month ago, and I LOVE IT!! It's perfect for kids like me who wanna text message and IM. The service one word amazing. No dropped calls nothing. This phone is pretty durable, it looks nice what more could you want. I have no complaints about this phone. I LOVE MY PHONE SOOO MUCH AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU!

I have now had this phone for about a month now and i absolutely love it. Its a texting machine, if you get this phone def. get a texting plan with it. If i had to complain about something its that you only get about 3 hours talk time out of it, but that isnt even that bad, so im still very pleased. Verizons reception in my area is very good, and this tranaction with Amazon was very seamless, great deal. Note- this phone in 80 to 100 dollars cheaper on here, hence the reason why i didnt buy it in the verizon store not even 5 min. away from my house.

i bought this phone on jan 27 from amazon -- verified that i was buying from amazon and product was shipping from amazon and in stock. STILL Don't have phone -- but i have billing from verizon!! surprise! and guess what? my phone is expected on feb 27! that's the best amazon can do! so -- if you want a cell phone in less than a month, do yourself a favor and buy it somewhere else. you might pay a little more (i was saving $25 over my local verizon store) but at least YOU'LL HAVE A PHONE!



There is a great deal on an enV on Ebay with tons of Extras and you don't have to buy another contract!!!!

Haven't got the phone yet, but on the top of my list. Their calling plan page seems to be confusing. All the plans with this phone have a roaming charge of $0.69/min. However, in the footnote section of the same page, there is "(Unlimited)No domestic roaming charges" Do they have roaming charge or not???


just bought it yesterday evening and let me tell you, its the most amazing phone ive ever used. pictures are magnificent really clear and actually look like what you took. battery life is great, charged it when i got home, been messing around with it for about 4 hours and it hasnt come close to dying its till full. i love the QWERTY keyboard its very handy, instead of going to verizon to have them put your contacts in and charge you, i did it myself in about 15 minutes. i recommend this phone for people who cant text but know how to type on a keyboard. its easy simple and an overall GREAT phone.

I would highly recommend this phone even if you don't ever IM. I use the phone's qwerty keyboard for easily entering contact info, calendar events and making notes in notepad (things to do, things to buy, etc.). Camera is superb and so is the speaker phone. The most important feature which is the call quality is also very good. I have no complaints...only compliments for the team that designed the enV.

After the disaster that was the RAZR v3m this phone met all my expectations.

Great photos! Nice and sharp. Easily take photos of documents. Handy lens cover like a real camera. Auto-focus slows shutter speed but improve picture quality. At 1600x1200 they are almost good enough to print. You can even print wirelessly by Bluetooth. Photos are about 500k in size, with a $20 256 meg microSD you can hold hundreds of photos. Oh yeah, make sure you get a Sandisk or Kingston, some of the other cheaper brands will not work.

Bluetooth is not crippled! You can transfer photos and videos right to your PC from this phone, transfer rate is about 33k/sec, not fast but OK. Also videos are captured at 320x200 and do not have a time limit!

Bitpim works with this phone's Bluetooth to backup your phonebook!

Great keyboard, I was amazed it works as well as it does, I do not IM but for putting in phonebook information it makes it fast and easy.

Bettery life is good, I get 3 days of use from 1 charge.

Size, it not super slim like the Razr but fits nicely in your pocket.

No real complaints, from a picky person its high praise.

Way to go LG!!

LG has done a fabulous job on the phone. The company has obviously incorporated features based on usability studies (or comments taken from the previous model).

Who this phone is probably best for: users who want a cell phone, would like to check email via the web sometimes (not a zillion times a day like some power smartphone users), prefer QWERTY keyboards, would like to send txt msgs or pix msgs, would like to check for movie reviews and place/times via the web, check for product reviews via the web while shopping, want a phone small enough to fit in their pockets/purses, do not want to pay $80/mo for service (up to $40 for data and the remaining for voice).

Yes, you can pay as little as $5/mo on top of your current voice plan to access the web using this phone. The $5/mo plan counts the web-access minutes against your voice plan. However, you can go up to $15/mo above your current plan (VCast package) for unlimited web access/video and music downloads and those minutes are independent of your voice minutes. You can look on the VZW web site for details.

A couple of minor downsides: 1) The ring tones that come with the phone suck. So if you are picky, you'll want to spend some money to download some personal favorites. 2) Although the camera is spec'd at 2 MP, you cannot send these hi-rez photos via pix msgs (I guess they're too large; you can send the lower rez pix though).

With that said about the camera, the lower rez pics that this camera takes is better than any phone camera I've seen (and I've seen many of them). The camera features single-point autofocus, white balance options, day/night mode, and flash. Maybe these features help boost the quality of the pix.

This phone is fun, functional, and cost-effective (plan-wise). No wonder it's a big hit. They are getting hard to find in stores. I had to call around before I found a store that had it in stock.

I was looking to get the V by verizon but the clunky size turned me off from it but I am glad that I waited because the enV is a lot better in terms of size and the way it looks.

The enV is great in that it has 2 screens, a great camera, has fantastic sound and is very user friendly. I like that the phone can dub as a mp3 player and a mini computer. I had no trouble going online to read the news or check email because the inside screen is large and clear. The bottons are also easy to use making it easy to type and surf the net. I was even able to go on some message boards with this phone!

The phone also has a nice calendar feature and even can calculate your tip amount for you when you dine out. The wallpaper choices that come with the phone are great as well--the colors are so vivid even if the pic is simple looking.

The downside is the fact that Verizon is not only expensive but I have been having problems using Vcast. Sometimes I get a message that I don't have a subscription to Vcast when I know in fact that I do and sometimes the phone software freezes up and the phone ends up "restarting" like how a computer does when it crashes.

Vcast is great in terms of music and ringtones-they have nearly everything but some songs sound low in sound while others play very loudly.

The phone also lets you use IM (AOL, YIM, MSN) but charges it as a text message. I hope Verizon comes up with a better way to bill the usage soon.

Anyway I highly recommend this phone despite my issues with Verizon's service.

i have just upgraded to the env from my nokia 6230 could not be more leased with the phone and the service from verizon has been outstanding 5 stars all the way around!!!

It's a perfect size, smaller than the sidekick which I was thinking of upgrading to, and it works flawlessly! My only complaint is that you cannot utilize the email client for pop accounts like gmail, but you can simply log onto the web and access it there. picture quality is great, extra features such as voice ring etc.. is great. All around a great phone! and $50 from Amazon for new service to boot!

i recently got the lg env because my old nokia had finally reached the end of its life. i must say i that i am very impressed with this phone. it has a simple outside that is good for all of your voice calls, but then the phone opens clamshell style to reviel a extremly usefull qwerty key bourd, extrondanary stearoe speaker, vcast capability, an pre-equptied mobile im and vw navigator{ the navigator starts with a 30 day free trail and u must pay after that. the phones camera is extrodinary even on the second to lowest setting. the outer screen is a little small, but think of it is as a flip phone and it isnt that bad. the inner screen is crystal clear and has incredible resolution. downladable music and games are a nice feature, along with vcast video and tools{ such as weather and sports up dates} on the go. overall this phone is incredible, the only problem is that the extra features that are so enjoyable may add up if you are not carefull. if you have considered this phone at all i would strongly recomend purchasing it. you wont be disapointed

This phone is awesome!!!! Other reviewers have covered pretty much everything. this phone is text messager's heaven. Very user friendly interface, awesome camera, qwerty keyboard, popular AIM, mobile web, and so on and on.. too many features to list.. the camera is good quality.. and shutter in the front actually makes the lens secure and keeps it clean. The reception is awesome too.. I am getting fewer dropped calls!! the front keys lock automatically i think after 5 or 10 seconds which is cool!! mp3 player is awesome...gives good call quality!!!

I recommend this phone if you text a lot and on the web. The navigation with voice is awesome.. i dont have navigation in my car and i use vz navigator ..its just awesome!!!

5 out of 5

The main reason I bought this is that I wanted a qwerty keyboard and the best camera I could get. I didnt need internet or email so that kept me away from the Motorola Q, which was my alternative.

So far ive used the phone for one week and it has worked very well. great reception with my LG bluetooth headset, great texting ability, layout is good. once you get used to it you can navigate thru fairly quick. the autofocus camera takes great pics also.

Few quick points i wanted to mention that may hinder it for some. when you set the camera to the highest setting (1600x1200) you cannot pic msg those because it says they are too big. you have to move it to the next lower setting if you want to send them. I also am having some trouble with the lens cover on the camera, it has this spin dial that opens and closes it, mine seems to have gotten stuck, so im going to take it to Verizon and see what they say.

Otherwise, great phone that I highly recommend! perfect for the person that loves to text but doesnt need a pda style phone.

I am torn between giving this a four-star or five-star rating. I'm gonna stick to four, however, because five-star seems to warrant an absolutely perfect product.

Though not absolutely perfect, this is a fantastic and great phone. Like it's been said everywhere else before, the camera is phenomenal and takes great pictures. The auto-focus function is nice, but does slow things down a bit. If you're taking pictures of kids or animals, anticipate the moment and click a few seconds before in order to get the shot.

The phone is soo much thinner! The entire phone now is about as thick as the bottom half of the VX9800/The V. It's much lighter and I like the feel of the brushed plastic more. I'll be interested to see how this material wears since I started to get some spots where the color was rubbing off my VX9800.

The big thing that I LOVE about this phone is that you can actually make use of its Bluetooth function when pairing it with your computer. It was incredibly easy to pair it with my MacBookPro and send photos, sounds and video to and from my phone. I haven't had a chance to pair it with my Camry Hybrid yet, but I'm expecting everything to go smoothly.

My only complaints are concerning the main keyboard. I'm deeply saddened by the absence of the shortcut key. It used to be that I could whip out my phone and hit Fn 1 for my notepad, Fn 2 for my alarm clock or however else you organized your shortcuts. LG has compensated by allowing you to assign shortcuts to the navigation keys on both the main and front keypads.

Also, the clear button is about half the size on the main keyboard compared to the VX9800. It will take some time getting used to it, but at least it is not a huge flaw. The two space bars will take some practice and training in order to utilize it, but it's nice. I personally feel like two space bars worked better on phones like the old Nokia 68** series because they were so spread out, but it'll be nice all the same when I get used to it.

Buyers beware, however, because LG changed up the plug on this phone as well as the memory format. All those chargers, headsets, and data cables you purchased for your VX9800 will have to stay with your VX9800. Also, they switched from miniSD to microSD, so that nice miniSD card you had will have to become a key drive. Not a huge deal, however, because SD cards are CHEAP now.

Don't forget to use Backup Assistant to switch over all your contacts. They transferred flawlessly and perfectly from my old phone to new. Also, the phone works great with Bitpim if you set it as a VX8500 on the preferences. That way, I got my calendar, memos and text messages over also!

As you can see, this is definitely a four/four and a half-star rating, but not a perfect five. I love it anyway and look forward to using it!

I've had LG phones for a while, and like all of them, the ease of use with this phone is phoenomenal.

The phone seems big for some, but it fits in the pocket VERY nicely. Ive dropped this phone once on the hard street and it sustained the tiniest of scratches and works awesome all the same. It lags for a second or two when you use backup assistant.

The camera on this phone is one of the best ive ever seen! The pictures are SO clear and it has four resolutions!

Texting is of the easiest and you can do almost everything with this phone with the flip closed as well. Voice recognition is amazing and the SPEAKERPHONE is SUPER LOUD!

4.999 out of 5 stars!
