LGVX 8350


The LG VX series never seems to stop because it has just cam out with a new model, the LG VX8350. The smooth, pebble like phone measure to about 3.73 x 1.97 x 0.87 inches. From the looks it seems that the external screen is slightly better than the VX8300. It has music player controls set up on the external screen side. With trendy stereo speakers, the sound of this phone very accurate. This neat little phone is able to support Verizon's V Cast as well as a normal MP3 player for your entertainment. The call quality of this was exceptional and overall this phone costs about $79.99 with two year contract.

First Possible LG VX-10000 Pictures


We have heard a little bit about the LG VX 10000, but not enough to get an idea of what this device is actually capable of. What we do know, is that it is going to be released for Verizon, and that it will be the succesor of the LG VX 9900, so we can assume it will at the very least have some of the same features as the 9900. Now, with this leaked, supposedly real photo of LG's highest numbered model to date, we have an idea of its size and design. The keyboard looks very roomy, allowing users to type on their cell phone with ease. The inner screen also looks very promising, with a seemingly large display. Hopefully this new handset will live up to its name!

LG releasing 7.2Mbps SH150 Slider


While the rest of the U.S is trying to catch up to 3.6Mbps HSDPA, it seems as though our competition over seas has already upped their game to about 7.2Mbps. This is huge and considering that there aren't any 7.2 networks in Korea, it seems as though LG just produced this bad boy for kicks and giggles. The specs on the SH150 reveals that the phone will have a 2 megapixel primary and VGA secondary camera, DMB reception, QVGA display and should be enclosed in a 15.6mm slider. The phone is retailed at about $538 but is only available overseas.

LG Trax announced for AT&T


In another attempt to steal the spotlight from other carriers it seems as though AT&T is getting all the good phones that are being released. The LG Trax is the newest phone to be added to the arsenal of great phones and boy is this phone a looker. The phone is set to come with standard features including external music controls, microSD memory card slot, stereo bluetooth, and the ability to send and receive video files. The phone's outer appearance resembles the LG 8700 in regards to the fact that it is a slim clam shell but its overall look is about 10x better since the Trax is somewhat covered in a metallic finish. The phone is to be released very soon and expect more details to surface as the date comes closer.
Cheers,

LG to offer Sprint slider.


Looking at Sprint's lineup it is apparent that they are missing something, in fact they're missing a couple things including a phone with great messaging capabilities. The Mogul was recently released and it's a great phone but not many customers can cough up the $550 price tag on this beast of a phone. Well lucky for the it seems as though LG is in the works of releasing a phone that utilizes a slide out Qwerty for the message freaks in all of us. The phone looks to be an entry level phone with features including bluetooth, camera, microSD slot, and of course a full slide out Qwerty. This new LG phone looks promising and I'm really excited to see what LG/Sprint rolls out with so I will keep you folks updated on this great phone.

Cheers,

LG Muziq announced for Sprint.


Following along the ever so popular music phone movement, LG has announced that it will release the LG Musiq, which is stated to be the follow-up to the popular LG Fusic, for Sprint users. The LG Musiq is a follow up to the successful LG Fusic and boast a great list of standard features that should catch the eyes of many music phone fanatics. To start off, the LG Musiq will feature a neat new feature that will allow the phone to send tuneage to any FM radio via its integrated FM transmitter. The Musiq also comes standard with a microSD memory card slot capable of supporting up to 4GB of memory, as well as a 1.3 megapixel camera and a side loading of DRM-free music via USB. The phone looks promising and I'm sure it will catch on as many of the other music phones released cost about twice as much as the LG Musiq which is listed as $99 with contract.

What is the LG Wine?


Well it seems as though we're on the short end of the stick once again when it comes to LG phones being released here in the states. The LG wine, which seems to be a Korea only phone, has been announced and will be available for Cyon. The phone itself is nothing to special, specs are at a minimal with a 2.2 inch display, media player, and the basic camera. The overall design isn't anything to brag about but it does look like an entry level phone that I'm sure millions of people wouldn't mind having over here in the states. I hope one day we'll get the same phones that are released over seas but until that day comes I can only gripe about not getting them.

Cheers,

LG enV in orange?


Okay, so LG and Verizon must have a thing with releasing phones in every color under the sun. First we had the LG chocolate's which were released in 5 different colors and now we're seeing the LG EnV following the same path. It was revealed that the LG EnV will be available in orange and will hit shelves later this year. I really have no idea where to go with this, I'm a big fan of the EnV but orange? I really hope LG and Verizon did their research on which demographic they're aiming for cause this looks like it'll end up being a mistake. Anyhow, who am I to judge the success of a color? The EnV will remain unchanged and accessories will still be available at AccessoryGeeks.com no matter what color EnV you have.

NEW LG VX-9400


LG has recently launched the VX-9400 for Verizon Wireless, which is a pretty unique phone if you compare it to the list of recently released phones. The VX-9400 utilizes a unique display by allowing users to swivel the LCD display up and present images in a landscape format while exposing the keypad underneath. The LG VX-9400 is also the first LG phone to support live TV broadcasting using MediaFlo, which unlike previous streaming media, utilizes its own network instead of relying on the carrier's network. The VX-9400 is packed with a good number of features including a microSD memory card slot, a 1 megapixel camera, mp3 music playback, and bluetooh. From the recent reviews that I've read on the VX-9400, the phone itself seems promising for Verizon and LG. Users compliment the ability to stream TV and also compliment the ability to change the display layout. The phone is currently offered through Verizon wireless and accessories are available at AccessoryGeeks.com

Will we ever Shine?


So I'm sure I'm not the only person who is hating the fact that LG will not be releasing the LG Shine to the U.S. anytime soon. I've seen so many sellers on ebay and users on forums bragging about how great the Shine is with its full metal body, its Schneider Kreuznach auto-focusing camera, or even the expandable micro sd slot (even though its not that big of a deal).


I would love for LG to grace the U.S. with this phone but only time will tell when this masterpiece will be available in the U.S. Maybe one day when we see cows jumping over the moon and pigs flying will this finally be available through a carrier, but until then our only resource to this phone is eBay and AccessoryGeeks.com for all our accessory needs.

Do you EnV??


LG had a huge following when it released the LG VX9800 to Verizon not to long ago. Being that it was a phone and a multimedia station, it caught the attention of a majority of Verizon's younger users. The phone allowed us to listen to music download content and most importantly it allowed us to use AIM, which was huge for Verizon since T-Mobile released the Sidekick, which took the world by storm.
The LG EnV (VX9900) is the follow up to the VX9800 and it sticks to the same formula that made the previous phone so successful. The EnV is not to be confused with a smart phone, the EnV is essentially just a phone with a full QWERTY keyboard that makes text messaging and navigation throughout the phone a breeze. It also incorporates high-end features such as a removable microSd memory card slot, an MP3 and video download via VCast and it also incorporates a fairly large internal display with speakers. The EnV is a pretty neat little device by Verizon’s standards and it does show that Verizon is taking the necessary steps in capturing a younger market by offering phones that they might actually like, something that Verizon was lacking in the past. The EnV is a must get if you’re an individual that utilizes all the features that the EnV has to offer and accessories are readily available at AccessoryGeeks.com. For the price I personally think you get more bang for your buck with the EnV compared to any other Verizon phone on the market.

Get your shin on with LG's VX-8700


The Lg VX-8700 is similar to the 8600 which is basically a flip version of the popular LG Chocolate. I personally like the finish of the VX-8700 over both phones because I'm more of the steel finish type of person. Even though the VX-8700 and the VX-8600 are basically the same phone, the overall quality and look of the 8700 is beyond the 8600. Not much has changed between the phones except for a sleek vertical external display that is found on the VX-8700 as opposed to the music player controls found on the outside of the VX-8600.


The LG VX-8700 does use a micro sd memory card to support the included music player and also incorporates stereo blue tooth. For many of you who love the VX-8600 but want more of a eye-catching phone, then the LG VX-8700 is the phone for you.

LG vx8300 reviewed by Geeks part 1


Verizon Wireless the nation’s largest and strongest Network provider and LG recently launched an update to the VX8100 music phone with the new introduction of the lighter (3.88oz/110g) LG VX8300. While the VX8300 retains much of the previous specifications as of its predecessor the LG VX8100, the added tweaks both in hardware and design are appreciated, especially the weight issues. Instantaneously when taking a closer look at the new LG VX8300. I could immediately decipher that its eye-catching metallic gray clam-shell was sturdy and durable, but hey not indestructible.
Like the LG VX8100, the LG VX8300 EV-DO handset includes illuminating music control keys on the outside of the flip on the VX8300 signifying the phone’s marketability as an MP3 phone. The LG VX8300 also has built-in stereo speakers and GPS radio capability making the LG VX8300 a versatile music power device. I mean GPS radio, WOW! The rewind, play/pause, and fast-forward buttons are ergonomically positioned so to provide optimal operational efficiency of the music capabilities in the LG VX8300 itself. A new feature that the LG designers added to the LG VX8300 is the ability to expand memory using microSD memory expansion technology over the previous model's miniSD. Now all you LG lovers and Verizon customers can expand your memory capabilities and have a greater degree of freedom & wireless mobility to share or listen to various music media anywhere you go.
