Top Reviews Review created: 11/24/07 by: 49 of 49 people found this review helpful. This phone is an unbelievable toy packed with all the features. Similar to the touch capabilities of the iPhone, this phone has vibrate feedback and a full keyboard at a fraction of the cost. I've had mine for 5 days and can't put it down. DEFINATELY the coolest toy out there!!! The interior screen is crystal clear and larger than the env. The camera is 2 megapixel, which is very cool. i can't say enough about this thing!!!!! Also, doesn't require a special data plan like the pearl, iphone or others. standard plan with unstandard features. Review ID: 10000000004686034 Was this review helpful?

One of the new key features to today's modern phones is that it has mobile TV. The multi-media is a plus. Although the only downfall to the phone is that it must be open to use speaker phone, but other than that so far the phone is great. Review ID: 10000000004683570 Was this review helpful?

With all the (well-deserved) hype about the iPhone, Verizon showed guts in releasing their version of Apple's popular phone, the LG Voyager. Very few people expected it to be up to par with the $600 juggernaut, but as an owner of a new Voyager, I can truly say that this phone is the best on the market. It brings all the good qualities of the iPhone (with few exceptions, such as internet capability), but it has its own perks. The QWERTY keyboard on the inside is a commodity that the iPhone is lacking. I personally use the keyboard more than the touch interface on the front of the phone. Although the phone has every bell and whistle imaginable, it is still as easy to use as any phone I have come across. Overall, it is a real beast. And at the price tag of only $300, it is WELL-WORTH IT. Voyager over iPhone in a 12-round thriller. Review ID: 10000000005600364 Was this review helpful?

The look with the chrome and black is very attractive. Web browsing speeds are SO MUCH faster than the iPhones and the HTML browser is just one level below the iPhone and 10 steps above any other browser out there. Verizon has let loose and finally let people customize more and it is great to see. I would recommend this phone in a heart beat. The build quality is great! No creaks, no cracks, no nothing. It is solid and it feels so solid and has actual weight in your hands. It does not feel like plastic at all. It feels like it is made of an expensive metal.

Well I finally got my hands on the phone everyone on Verizon Wireless's network has been getting information about: The LG Voyager, or VX10000. Certainly with its black look, touch screen atop the display, internal memory capability, and plethora of features, most consider this the "iPhone" of Verizon Wireless. Is it though? I do not plan to go into a "Voyager vs. iPhone" debate as I'm solely looking into the Voyager itself. But I will call out a few things that the Voyager outperforms on from the iPhone's standpoint along with functionality, look, and feel. So, in we go! At first look, the touch-screen interface is fairly easy to navigate. Simply touch what you wish to go to, and the phone will launch that application or folder. Scrolling by using the touch interface takes a bit of getting used to, but the best way I think of it as is to scroll like you're pushing up a paper out of a folder. The more you slide from down/up or up/down, the more or less you see of the options you wish to select. Keep that in mind as you use the interface. Speeds on VZW's network and Mobile TV far surpass anything that would be found on an iPhone, as you have 400-700kbps on EV-DO as compared to 135kbps on ED-GE through AT&T's network. And with the faster speeds, the HTML browser allows you navigation of web pages at a faster and easier rate than on an iPhone. The camera works just as if you have a digital camera in your hand, but be leary iPhone users: you cannot send or receive picture messages on your phone, can you? Oh wait, you can...if you send or receive from/to an email address. Well...the LG Voyager allows it up to its 1.3MP resolution. (The 2.0MP is too large for an MMS message.) Then, we have to love our QWERTY keyboard for those of us texters who text or type by feel. (PICK ME!) You can still navigate using traditional methods with the flip open as compared to on an iPhone, and it does assist for some back-end usage if you prefer "the old-fashioned way" to doing things. Sure, the downfall is your memory card must be purchased separately from the phone itself, whereas the iPhone has it built internally. But you can then swap out microSD cards up to 8GB in size allowing for music, photos, or videos to be stored on your Voyager. AND, with a removable battery, you can restart your phone if ever it needs to be hard rebooted. iPhone? Have fun trying to do that without voiding your warranty. And finally, pricing is always expensive with both phones, which may be a drawback to some consumers. So, alas, the user interface is a bit quirky to get used to, and the device has a bit of a learning curve. What phone doesn't though, these days? Try a Voyager and see what you think of its feel in a Verizon store. 5-Star Rating comes from Mr. Ter. =) Review ID: 10000000006076669 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
