LG enV2 Review
Verizon
The LG enV2 (VX9100) for Verizon Wireless is the newest upgrade of the enV, which was released last year, and is targeted to the consumer who is looking for a small, attractive device while maintaining a full QWERTY keyboard...

31. nice follow-up to the enV

This unit is a nice follow-up to last years enV. One thing that i was very happy to see was the large keypad on the front! Finally, my customers can see the numbers when they are dialing! :D
the only con (which is not really a con) is the keyboard on the inside. Its slightly too small for my liking (im a guy with big hands) and i find it somewhat hard to type. Its not too bad, and if i owned this phone as a daily phone i think i would be able to live with hitting a extra key or two here and there.
Overall, this unit is a good buy for the price. If you dont want all the bells and stuff that the voyager has to offer, check this unit out!

33. Awesome texting phone

Those of you who use your phone for texting, phone calls and maybe music/videos occasionally, don't listen to the whiners on this site. You will dig this solid, high quality, easy to use, easy to type, customizable text machine. The keypad is amazing and very precise feeling, and the battery life is unbelievable even if you use the interior screen semi frequently. I will take typing on a qwerty keypad over a touch screen any day. Yeah it's not cutting edge tech but it doesn't pretend to be, especially since I got mine for $20 in store after all the discounts and rebate. Many of the people who have posted complaints (like they can't read multi-line texts on the front screen, or that the camera isn't auto focus) are morons who don't know what they're talking about. If you read the env (1) reviews you will find endless complaints about camera lag. Ditching the auto focus gets rid of that, so which would you rather have, a camera that takes pics quickly or a weak useless flash that you have to go thru menus to enable? There are also some "hidden" features that aren't mentioned often. I guarantee that the first time you have the phone read a text message aloud to your friends (press the "space" button in the interior keypad to do it on speakerphone) your friends will laugh their a$$es off and want the phone. I do hate the keyguard (especially the 7 second reset which is a big bug) and hope they fix it. If they gave it a full html browser it would be perfect. As it is, 9/10.

phone is cheaply made and lg should not make another env. so many people are getting this phone because it cheap(price) there are NO upgrades from the vx9900, NO html browser, it's not a muti media phone, it a basic messaging phone, so if you want to text a lot and nothing else, forget phones, terrible sound, speaker phone u have to get the phone open, pain in the ars. this is my review and my opinion, this phone stinks!!! i'd rather get a Motorola.

Seriously, who gives a squirt that the phone *only* has a 2MP camera, and no flash? Um... it's a PHONE. What kind of clown actually uses a phone for PHOTOGRAPHY? I have a 10MP DSLR which I use for photography. I couldn't care less if my phone includes a camera or not. This is an absolutely ridiculous complaint.
Just cause you've got chubby, fumbling fingers that's the phones fault?
And you can get to voice-mail without opening the phone... it's #1 on the speed-dial. Der.

great phone, i tried it out for a few days and loved it, front screen is small like people say but with a phone that has a qwerty and a huge screen inside, the outside really is just for making calls. oh and #62, verizon does have unlimited txt plans, its called the Select plan, check it out cuz its def available

I don't know if it's the fact that my last phone was a RAZR, but I recently got the LG EnV2, and I couldn't be more blown away by all the stuff this thing can do! It came down to a fight between the LG Chocolate 2 or this phone, and I'm glad I went for the EnV. The size is great, and I can fit my EnV into my hip holster that was designed for a RAZR! Texting is fantastic and really makes me wish that Verizon had an unlimited texting plan, just so I could keep on texting all day! Even the predictive text on the front display is fantastic! There are several features that make texting even more fun, like when you open the phone, you just have to start typing your message, and the phone will auto-launch the new text message panel, which out-speeds even the Rumor's instant link to the messaging menu. Overall, I love this phone and there are barely any things wrong with this wonder of modern technology! I would have preferred more features to be accessed when the phone is closed, but that's the only problem I have with this phone. The EnV2 is a solid buy!

I got the samsung glyde about a week ago, and after a few days could NOT stand it. Not worth the money AT ALL. The gyde sucks. I went back to the verizon store to return it and i went with the phone every single person there reccomended. the enV 2. I LOVE IT.

Drops Calls, No Flash, limits to what you can do wothout opening it. Pocket dials and turns on random functions without '0' being pressed to unlock. Considering returning .... curious to see how many more people post about the dropped calls. Long time verizon customer - never have had dropped calls before this phone. Big bummer
