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 have had this phone about 4 months now and my only concern is it sometimes resets itself while looking through past text messages or on sites like facebook. it's very easy to use once you get used to the touch screen. I've gone through about 6 verizon phones in the last two years and this is by far my favorite of the bunch.
stylish
easy to use
great design
takes excellent photos
hard to text quickly
resets randomly

ive had this phone for about 9 months now, and ive got to say that its a great phone. The touchscreen can be clunky at times but overall its been great. The camera is amazing, it takes GREAT pictures but it could use better zooming. The internet on this phone is mediocre, not that great, not even close to an iphone in my opinion. Texting on this phone can be a big pain at times, it doesn't respond at times which messes up your messages, this is not the phone for hardcore texters. Call quality is great, its clear. I haven't had any problems with calling.

Ive had my phone for 8 months and I love it. Im only on my second one and thats only because the hard drive crashed on the first one after a day. Ive dropped it countless times and there are no cracks or scratches on it. I have the Zagg Invisishield on and it looks even better than when you buy the phone from the store. All of the features are extremely easy to use. The only complaint I have it the qwerty Keyboard, my fingers are a little too fat for it and they hit the wrong key ofter. Using the T9 word is extremely easy and fast. I send about 9000 texts a month and its fine for me.
Camera
Responsive Touch screenLittle rubber covering the headphone jack is very easy to use. Maybe some sort of sliding device would work better.

This phone is great! The touch screen is very accurate, the call quality is loud and crisp, and the display is very sharp. Oh, and texting horizontally is easy to get used to. Not good for heavy texters though. Music on this phone is great also! Get a warranty on this phone though.

ive had many phones... env2,venus,chocolate 1&2, motorola q, razr,glyde... and more. im 15 and pay for these myself so dont call me spoiled anyways. i would prefer this phone to anyone even over the iphone, it has everythin the iphone has except apps and wifi. it beats it with its 3.2 mp camera, video recording, and mms. and it does kinda have apps oin the vz store. GET THIS PHONE OVER THE ENV3 ENV touch ALIAS2 or anything else,!
big screen
easy to text after u get used to it
holds alot of memory

I consider myself pretty phone savy and the lg dare is a phone that fits me just right! i love the camera and the drawing pad so that i can make my own backgrounds. For this being my first touch screen phone i m ust say im rather impressed!
Cool features and great design with a decent battery life and an amazing music player!sometimes the touchscreen isnt acurate or responsive, i still cant find a way to zoom when using my camera

I've had my Dare since last May, when it first came out, and it is AWESOME. I have zero problems with it, never had it replaced, always stays charged and is just fun to play with. I charge my battery once every 3 days, just in case, although it still holds 2 bars after 3 days!! Touch screen is awesome, responsive, accurate. Always has a signal and it is the best phone I've ever owned (I've had Motorola, Blackberry, LGs, Nokia).
BUY ONE!
Battery Life
Touch Response
AwesomenessHard to See Screen in Direct Sunlight (is this really a con)

ive had the dare since december so like 4 months and so far its very good phone. it has an easier touch screen to navigate that ive used on any other phone. its small and has a very nice feel to it. texting took a while to get used to but ive got it down pretty good now. alot of people are saying the QWERTY keyboard on this phone is difficult but i find it as easy to use as the standard keypad. i usually can go three days with out charging my battery. the only thing that i would wish differently on this phone is the reaction quickness when you touch things in the menu. like if you push the message button it takes like half a second for the messages to appear. its not that big of a deal but when your a huge texter like i am, its easier to just get things going instantly and fast. Overall its just an awesome modern touch screen phone. i have had no serious problems with it yet and i hope to keep it that way.
great 3.2 mp camera
very nice touch screen
not too hard to text on
customization is very interchangeable
a tad slow when you push buttons.
-just my personal preference
