getting a new cell phone..?

Question

Well, I just bought an LG white chocolate by verizon today ( http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/controller?item=phoneFirst&action=viewPhoneDetail&selectedPhoneId=2646 ) with a family plan, my mom got a dark chocolate.
Well anyways, a few of my friends have them, and they all really like them. But I'd just like a few more opinions and any tips with them or anything... whether you have one, want one, or have just heard about them... that would be great :]] thank you

Answer 1

I had Verizon Wireless for about 4 months. I currently have a black chocolate as well. Using my phone I realize there are so many problems with it. First of all the touch sensitive keypad on the top of the phone is way too sensitive and sometimes the menu on the phone move from one screen to another. You barely touch it and it goes so quickly the menus. Another issue is the end key which is located to the side of the phone and not on the keypad. Plus there is no headphone jack if you want to use a headset especially when you are driving.

I honestly think you should return your chocolate phone. Verizon Wireless has recently came out the updated Chocolate phone LG VX8850. It looks much sleeker and has better buttons. It now has a metal wheel function like the ipod in the middle of the phone. The touch sensitive keypad now has a vibration function so that you know when you press it correctly. This phone also has change the layout of the keys. The end key, and camera key is now located in the keypad and not on the side of the phone like the old chocolate phone. Plus this phone has a jack for a headset if you are driving. It has bluetooth as well. The software on the new chocolate phone looks way more better than the old chocolate version.

Overall the new chocolate phone is way better than the previous model. It comes in black, blue mint and black cherry (red). It cost 149.99 plus a $50 mail in rebate for new customers.

If you recently bought a phone, you can still return it within 30 days for exchange of another phone. Here is a review of the new chocolate phone LG VX8550.
