LG Dare Review
LG has been a leader in the touchscreen non-smart phone market since 2007 with their introduction of the PRADA GSM model in Europe. Since then, they have developed and released additional touchscreen phones, such as the Voyager, Glimmer, Vu, and Viewty; each with their own unique features. The newest device to be released is the Dare, which is available through Verizon Wireless...

I must say that this is Verizons best phone yet. And the closest thing to the I Phone on the verizon network. Great features, design, loud ringer and great battery life. Best phone I've owned. Price was also good. No problems so far

My Little brother got the new enV2 and i was sorta mad until i got the dare which is a billion times better than any of the other phones I have had, used, or seen. It is the coolest most awesome phone. When i showed my friends all jaws dropped for it. With its amazing features and super awesome shape topped off with a touch screen and 3.2 megapixel camera it's probobly LGs best phone!
The Whole phone is great!I can't think of anything

I got this phone to replace my LG chocolate, and I absolutely love it! It has taken a couple of days to get used to it but once ya get the hang of it, its a sinch to work! The camera is incredible and the sound quality is amazing! Its light weight and thin, perfect for throwing in your purse or pocket and going! This phone is perfect for anyone that uses a PDA for scheduling, taking notes, etc... It has taken the place of both my phone and PDA

The screen gets dirty, so you have to make sure you have a screen protector.

the dare is a pretty cool phone, unless you are a texter. i couldn't stand the keyboard. i was too fast for it i guess. i would be typing and by the time i would type a word it would only recognize about 1/2 of it. after having it for a few weeks i couldn't wait to go back to my old 'the V'

texting! DO NOT GET IF YOU ARE A BIG TEXTER!

96. THE BEST REPLACEMENT........EVER

originally, i had a RAZR V3c and then i Upgraded to a RAZR2 V9M. i loved the phone like another person in my family, but after a while of having it, the phone started restarting itself after having the screen go white for like, 30 seconds. so we went to verizon and they gave me a new one. this one, turned out to be some cruddy phone that someone previously owned. the phone glitch and they fixed it, and then they gave it to me. i bought the RAZR 2 with 250 bucks in my hand for my b day present. i was really angry and then i decided i wanted a dare. the would not give it to me, and after my mother had a little debate with the verizon people, i got a dare for FREE. i have the phone now, and i must say this is the best phone i have ever had. the touch screen is outstanding and responds to touch extremely well. scrolling through the menus is really easy. you could calibrate the phone to your touch. the music player is pretty good, although without earphones, it cant play that loud. every part of this phone is great. get it.
everything-TEXTINGwhy would they put bad things in it???

97. PROBLEM

I love this phone. I got it a week ago but I recently noticed a problem. If you are talking on the phone and its up to your LEFT ear, if you listen you can hear a repetitive clicking noise and it is very annoying. The only reason I can come up with is because the dare is like the iPhone; when you turn it on its LEFT side when you are texting the screen flips. The sensor must repeatedly be going off when you have the phone tilted that way. If you talk on your RIGHT ear you won't have a problem. Anyway, I returned the phone and got a new one hoping that it was a specific defect to that certain phone but this new phone too does the same thing. Overall its a great phone but this defect is leaving me no choice but to sell it and get a different phone. So to those of you who talk on your left ear beware!
- Great GUI
- Touchpad is great- Honestly my only complaint is the clicking noise in the left ear.

98. Almost a Grand Slam

This phone is good, and has lots of great features but just misses from being the phone I fall in love with. Everyone know about the camera and its editing options. everyone ones about its touch screen. As will all touch screens, sometimes you get the wrong button or it doesn't respond like you want it to, but that I with any touch screen that I have seen so far. The UI looks and feels a little different, but its VZW UI just with a paint job. The favorites button is a nice and easy to use feature to get to people you talk or txt to most often. The battery life has been good so far, and a full HTML browser with java is nice. The only other thing I wish is if all of the menus would adjust as you tilt it to the side. Good, phone if your thinking about it, I suggest doing it, beacuse we all love to touch.
Full HTML browser
Camera with editing features
Singal Strength
Expandable MemoryNo zoom on Camera
Texting (impossible if you have been drinking. or if your driving (please don't do all three) )

99. LG Dare - A Pretty Good Phone

I've had the dare for about a month and a half and it's absolutely awesome! (I'm in high school by the way) It has tons of sick features that are so much fun to use and are so convenient. But, being a text-a-holic, it's hard to cope with the funky texting problems. it gets frustrating. And theres a lot more problems, but to top them off, the phone wont charge for more than about 2-3 hors (it just stops & turns off mid-charge) and it doesn't hold its charge. I'm working on getting it fixed.
-awesome UI (best-ever at veizon)
-light-weight
-tons of entertaining features
-AMAZING camera/editing program-horrible texting
-menu scrolling is frustrating
-i would never feel safe dropping it
-charging problem (may be just for me)
