JUNK

Purchased two LG VX-4700 Phones thru Verizon July 2005 - These Phones are are poorly designed with buttons on both sides of the exterior. Too easy to press one of these buttons when holding or using the LG VX4700 in Push To Talk mode. The equipment is junk!
These phones have failed numerous times... Internal LCD going Blank... No Audio - Stuck in Mute Mode - Just Bizarre Software Glitches. And of course Verizon roped me into a two year contract with these pieces of CR@P. My Account has seen THREE DIFFERENT CARRIERS (SAME ACCOUNT NUMBER) since 1990 - Pac Bell - AirTouch - and now Verizon - You'd think after 17 years they might have the decency to replace one of the phones that is DOA.

We just swithed from Nextel,because of poor reception, to Verizon Wireles. We purchased 14 LG-VX4700 phones with the push to talk and in the three months of use we are ready to throw them in the dumpster. The push to talk works intermittently the phones drop calls and shut off in mid conversation. When you need them they are unreliable. I thought Nextel was bad, but these are worse. We thought it was the service,but we have a
Verizon user in the same office with a Kyocera 2135 that they have no problem with.

This is an excellent phone, The looks are not bad, most flip phones are meant for size and comfort not looks.
The phone has the usual LG package with a new touches, it is laid out well. It's proformance is on par with most of of the LG phones. I like the other person have become a fan of the LG phones as they hold up to us much longer then the other phones I have tried, in fact I will never own another samsung phone so long as I live!
The PTT works well thus far and as for the sound it surpasses any other LG's that I have seen and other then the high dollar MP3 playing phones, this one rates in the top five of standard units.
If you are not a fashion queen, then I would recommend this unit without doubt. It has preformed as promised and to me was well worth the price paid.
There are cheaper units that are not flip phones, but due to my past experience with NON flip phones accidentally calling God knows who because you bump into things, I simply have no use for the NON flips anymore.
