I just got this phone yesterday and I think it's AMAZING. I don't know why people won't take this phone for what it is rather than compare it to the iPhone. First of all the LG Prada had a touch screen before the iPhone was even mentioned, so let's get that out of the way. Second, I've had no problems with the touch screen, it has worked pretty much perfectly for me. The only annoying thing is the Unlock feature where you have to keep hitting the bottom left corner to unlock everytime it's idle for 14 seconds. Other than that, how can you go wrong with up to 8 GB of memory for movies/music, V Cast Vidoes and V Cast TV, and the the mobile web worked pretty damn fast. Not to mention I have a GPS Navigator feature that gives me accurate driving directions (with voice) and tells me exactly where I am!! And for you iPhone owners that are on here hating, the iPhone doesn't have a full QWERTY keyboard like this does (MAJOR issue for people that text/instant message). In the end, this phone doesn't do some things as good as the iPhone... but the iPhone doesn't do some things nearly as well as the Voyager.

first i would like to say if you are comparing the iphone to the voyager there is a discussion board on this website for this debate an arguement. This is meant to tell about the voyager not which phone company is better.

I wanna start by saying that I live in Arizona and anyone can vouch for me when i say verizon has the best coverage out here and people are constantly ending thier contracts with att because they don't have the coverage in arizona, not only that this isn't a debate on which company has better service because Verizon is number on in the country its a review on the phone.

The voyager hands down is great, just like with any other phone it does take a while to get use to.. with all the functions whats not to love. Instead of getting a smart phone to have the full blown web access you can just get the vcast and have the full web page on the voyager. You can also watch tv. I have played with the touch screen and it is very managable. For anyone who is looking for a cool phone with lots of gadgets and an eye catcher, this is definitely the phone to go with. 8gb of expandable memory gives you the freedom to do multiple multimedia options on your phone.

Everyone knows and loves the env the voyager makes an amazing upgrade!

23. Not the answer to the iPhone...

iPhone this, iPhone that. Truely people just like seeing the school yard fight so to speak. Listen, this is not VerizonWireless answer to the iPhone. Honestly the iPhone is cool, well to be honest, it's really just has a cool touch interface. Everything else about it there are phones that can do much of the same thing. That phone would excel on another network,(VerizonWireless) Being on AT&T's network is the eqivalent of Michael Jordan being on the L.A Clippers's roster. Great player wrong team. Great phone wrong network.

Now, this is not LG or VerizonWireless to the iPhone. This phone is something else. The combination of touch and qwerty is daring but it is pulled off flawlessly. It's bluetooth support is on point, tethering, printing pictures via bluetooth, phone book transfer via bluetooth, and the list goes on. Another thing that won some brownie points is the fact that you can watch TV on the device... need I say more. Vcast sells itself. Feature wise this device is on point. The only thing I hate is the auto lock that comes on only after being 14 seconds idle. But, you can actually switch that feature off or on. So it's cool.

Though, I see some arent satisfied with that, so I guess i have to compare on some level with iPhone. Okay you asked for it. Both can do 8G of memory, but the voyager's is removable. Both have a 2.0 mp camera. iPhone has a better touch interface. Voyager can do live GPS navigation with voice, can do live TV, tether. Both supports a full web browser. Voyager supports more and better games. iPhone can download music via internet. Voyager can do song recognition, album, artist, and year and download directly over the phone network without having to access the web. Both device run at a great speed. As far as power goes well having a removable power source is more convient than having to send your device away in event something goes wrong with power. Wait now I'm talking company comparison. Verizon all day on that one hands down.

The Voyager is not the answer to the iPhone, this is truely just a great phone of its own right. Samsung more than likely,(hint, hint) will be answering the iPhone sometime by mid next year,(hint,hint). Two different phones. Money wise I'm going to invest in Voyager.

24. MY OPINION + I ACTUALLY HAVE THE PHONE!

ok, lets start off with w00t i LOVE THIS THING!!! its really easy to use the first time i got it i had some trouble using the touch screen but then i realized that its pressure sensitive, unlike the iphone which is touch sensitive... it feels REALLY durable so it wouldnt break if we used too much pressure..MUSIC QUALITY IS AWESOME! Best is to open the phone and use the speakers that way...but even with the phone closed it still sounds really good..i have a few problems with the internal part of the phone...i keep getting this buzzing sound.. but im kind of use to it because my Nintendo D.S makes that sound and a couple of my old phones...what i would recommend is to bring the phone to a local verizon wireless dealer..tell them ur problem and have them send you a new one..i recommend doing this as soon as possible, because if the new phone has problems as well you can still return it, because of the 30days policy.. but remember the 30days counts with the 1st phone you receive.. MOBILE TV..WOW..its great..but you need to have your antenna out or else it laggs..i used mobile tv during my camp out for black friday..LOL!.. the picture quality is VERY good also..but i dont like it as much because there is no flash..but during daylight, the picture comes out EXTREMELY GREAT..the web browser is a bit slow but if you really need to use it, you will have the patience..it takes about 10 to 15secs to load a screen..i guess im just to use to my computer which only takes like 2 secs..you cant add your ringtones through your memory card which sucks..but you can use phonezoo.com and create your own ring tones and send them to your phone..just save it as ringtone and your set! overall i give this phone a 9 out of ten... hope this helps! if you have some questions ill be back to respond!

I purchased the new LG-VX10000, Verizon's new "Voyager", a.k.a., the I-Phone killer on it's opening day, November 21st. OK, I was totally blown away with Apple's I-Phone and being a huge fan of new technology, I wanted one. But, alas, Verizon and Apple couldn't agree on terms, and my I-Phone hopes were dashed in an AT&T blitz. Being a long time subscriber and loyal fan of Verizon's service, I found myself searching for the proverbial "alternative" ( IE: the apples vs. oranges ) analogy. To my great excitement, here comes LG and the mighty Voyager. Reviews and leaked specs seemed promising, and I was anxiously awaiting the debut. So here we are, the date of my review, November 29, 2007 and I have had the phone for a mere nine days. My take on all the hype: this is NO I-Phone, but it's not really supposed to be. I took my time with this "phone", read the manuals, and tinkered with the features. My frustrations were most abundant with the interface, software and web browsing abilities. The main problems are with the touch screen. The screen on the Voyager, one of 2 by-the-way, is smaller than the I-Phone. This makes scrolling and manipulating the web pages very cumbersome and frustrating. You can calibrate the sensitivity, but it just doesn't work like the I-Phone. Having control and traveling through a website is miserable. Here is a clever trick though that I haven't heard anyone mention. Find yourself a small stylus, like from the Nintendo DS, and use that on the screen instead of your fingers. If you purchase the screen protectors, which is a very good idea, the stylus doesn't damage the screen and you'll be flying through web pages with ease. Once I tried this, I was much happier with my purchase. This was really my only main complaint of the Voyager. I have a couple more minor complaints. You do get Mobile-TV, for extra $, which is wonderful....but the antenna on this phone is laughable. It is well designed and user friendly, but fragile because it telescopes and has a hinge and is smaller in diameter than a tooth-pick. You also need it pulled out to get a strong enough signal, if an antenna was mandatory, maybe a flexible one might have been better. I'd hate to see how much that little thing will cost to repair because it WILL break. Another problem I had was with the touch screen and the switching between numerical and alpha toggles. On 2 occasions, when I switched to numerical...it wouldn't switch back to alpha. Turning the phone off and on again was the only thing that fixed the problem. The picture is SUPERB, the speakers are WONDERFUL and the battery life is robust. Granted, the I-Phone is seamless and user friendly. But if you want more...mobile-tv, music-on-demand, GPS navigation, down loadable games, instant messaging ( via. MSN, AOL and YAHOO ), video recording, picture/video messaging and Verizon's better service......than this is THE PHONE to have. Now that I am using a stylus....I have forgotten about the I-Phone.

i actually have the voyager and my friend has the iphone.

the keyboard is very easy to use i never click the wrong botten, but on the iphone its very hard to use. plus verzion has the best network never one dropped call.
people just say the voyager is not good becuase they cant buy it.

Let me first say that this comparison with the I-phone is point less. So what if you think that the I-phone is better or if you think that the Voyager is better the fact is that these are both great phones and are raising the bar for future phones. The Voyager is a non smartphone so it serves a different purpose than that of the I-phone and it delivers. Its touch screen is very convient and works really well and it also has the keypad so if I need a faster text entry its perfect especially for messaging. Its html web browser is very fast and it works very well. I love the memory because I listen to a lot of music and the stero sound great (especially when it is open). The best thing about this phone is that it is a vcast phone not a smart phone so I can get aceess to the music, web, and add the vznavigator all without adding the $44.99 data plan and if I did want to add all these features its like $15 for vcast and $9.99 for the gps nav. Folks thuis phone is great so dont listen to these low reviews because not one of them can tell you why they gave it a low review because they just did. I just cant wait to see the next phone that Verizon and LG comes up with.

28. Wow

Need I say more than wow. I finally got my Voyager on Sunday 12/2/07 and guess what...I love it.Suprised? No I mean come on its a LG and its on Verizon's Network which we all know Verion is the best out there. If it werent for the Cingular-AT&T Merger a few years ago we wouldnt even be comparing these two companies. Anyhow this is a review on the phone and this Voyager is no doubt the best phone I have ever used. I went from the XV6700 to the Voyager and boy am I glad I did. This touch screen is great never needing an alignment and very responsive (especially if you use a stylus)The Web looks even better than it did on my 6700 and that was a PDA and its very fast using Verizon's evdo speeds.Plus It has the Qwerty keyboad which is great. We all know that its easier to enter text on the keypad than all touch screen so I dont have to say anything about that. I will just gt this phone and I bet bet your first born that 9-10 people will give this phone a high rating.

29. I'll take one

I Would say that bar none that the voyager is the best sudo PDA on the market. It takes the best of both worlds from normal cells and PDAs and melds them into one awesome phone. To sum it up in one word, Options. From having a 2meg camera and it's expandable to it's Vcast TV/ Video options and Html browsing this phone gives you an unique experiance. I love this phone.
