Verizon Wireless has just announced a “major” LG Voyager firmware update. It’s supposed to fix a whole host of issues with your LG Voyager, but you will have to go to a Verizon Wireless store to get the new firmware update. By the sound of it, you may want to go ahead and make the trek anyway.
EngadgetMobile says: “LG’s latest and greatest firmware for the LG Voyager superphone appears to bring a host of fixes and enhancements ranging from better battery life (or so they say, anyway) to an improved browsing experience.”
The LG Voyager is more than an enV on steroids, it is a phone for power users. There are a few hiccups, though. Read about them here.

LaptopMag reviews the Verizon Wireless LG Voyager: “The Verizon LG Voyager is a solid messaging device with first-class multimedia features. Although the touchscreen could have been better implemented and the Web browser is a bit slow on the Verizon Wireless LG Voyager, we like the versatility of having both touch- and keyboard-based input. And when you add in features like silky-smooth V CAST Mobile TV, GPS, and up to 8GB of storage for your tunes, you have much more than a worthy upgrade to the LG enV. You have the best non-smart phone in Verizon Wireless’ lineup.
The Verizon Wireless LG Voyager is a phone, mini TV, messaging device, and GPS navigator all in one. For the price we would have liked to see a smoother browsing experience, but Verizon Wireless customers looking to jump on the touchscreen bandwagon finally have a device to call their own. The Helio Ocean sports more elegant software and is a better messaging device than the Verizon Wireless LG Voyager, but if you want to watch high-quality video on the go and you’d like the option to touch or type, the LG Voyager is the better choice.”

InfoSync reviews the Verizon Wireless LG Venus: “The Verizon Wireless LG Venus should have been a much better phone than it is. It doesn’t need to be the iPhone killer that its bigger brother, the LG Voyager, tries to be. It should have just been a phone with a clever, fun design that added surprising use to an already-stylish phone. Instead, we get much of the style, but little of the fun, and no surprises. The Verizon Wireless LG Venus is a very likeable phone, and it does a fine job as a standard V Cast device. Music handling was as good as any V Cast phone and GPS performance was also good, but the Verizon Wireless LG Venus could have been much cooler, and hopefully the next versions will take better advantage of this innovative design.”

The un-hyped Viewty from LG has been selling like iPhone since it was officially launched. The Viewty has the best camera function in a phone with a video capture of up to 120fps. It’s a touch screen phone that plays audio and video files as well as standalone portable video players supporting DivX video formats.
We don’t hear much about this phone but consumers have taken a fancy on this full-featured technological wonder, which garnered it the 2008 iF product design award. Dr. Skott Ahn, President & CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company acknowledges the Viewty’s no-nonsense hi-tech appeal in a recent statement.
We are thrilled about the immense interest from consumers. In some countries, our product supply is even running low. This impressive result is attributable to the perfect balance between technology and design developed based on consumer insight. LG Viewty’s success is a significant achievement for LG as it is the first product in a high-technology line of handset at LG Electronics. With the confidence gained from our brisk sales activity, we will continue to improve areas of both features and premium design.
Forbes Magazine has recently featured the LG Viewty as one of the most desirable cellphones ...
PCMag reviews the LG VX8800 Venus: “The LG VX8800 Venus, for Verizon Wireless, is targeted at women. Its design takes cues from jewelry and fashion: It has metallic, mirrored, and stippled accents on the front and a faux-leather back. The LG VX8800 Venus isn’t thin, but it’s no LG Voyager-size boat, either. It’ll fit fine in a purse. It feels solid, and the sliding keypad moves smoothly.
The LG VX8800 Venus’s unique interface pops up when you slide the screen up to reveal the comfortable physical phone keypad. Immediately, the two screens on the LG VX8800 Venus’s top half light up. The main screen is a 320-by-240 LCD, and just below it, there’s a 176-by-240 touch screen with virtual buttons that change depending on what kind of menu you’re in.
The LG VX8800 Venus’s relatively high $199.99 price is all about style. If you want a good music phone or general-purpose phone on Verizon, you might as well get the less-expensive LG Chocolate VX8550 and Motorizr Z6tv, respectively. But just as there’s no shame in being seduced by a good-looking handbag if you have the cash to burn, there’s no shame in wanting to play with the ...
MobileBurn reviews the Verizon LG VX8700: “The Verizon LG VX8700’s eye catching looks and attractive design were something I gravitated towards. After sitting down and actually using the device, I have also learned that this stylishly designed handset has some brains as well. The Verizon LG VX8700 is a solid all purpose handset that has a great feature set under its slick and shiny belt. Springboarding off of the LG Shine, this sleek folder for Verizon Wireless has won me over, and with that I give the Verizon LG VX8700 a “Highly Recommended” rating.”

PhoneScoop reviews the LG CU405: “The LG CU405 (AT&T) is great! I can hear people and they can hear me. That’s the most important thing for me. I am thoroughly suprised with how the LG CU405 delivers, especially while being an entry-level phone. I had problems getting a signal at my house which is on the edge of Cingular’s 3G Network. This can be fixed by accessing the service menu and putting the phone in 2G mode(EDGE). My signal strength went from no bars to 5 bars. When the 3G network expands to my neighborhood, all I have to do is switch it back to 3G mode. If your LG CU405 has low signal strength, I encourage you to visit the AT&T forums, there you will find how to access the service menu and set your phone to 2G mode. Other than that minor problem, I really recommend using this phone.”

CrunchGear reviews the LG VX10000: “The LG VX10000’s form factor is sleek and stylish, though, I really am starting to loathe all ‘shiny’ phones flooding the market these days. It’s just a pain in the butt to keep clean. Does the LG VX10000 Voyager make phone calls that are clear? Yes, but for some odd reason I feel like I’m echoing just enough that it annoys me. Besides that all is well. When making phone calls the screen locks itself and you have to hit the unlock button where as the iPhone just knows when you’re putting it up to your cheek.
Let’s just get down to the nitty gritty. The LG VX10000 runs on Verizon’s EV-DO networks so everything is fast, but it can be clunky and video playback was bad. GPS is always a great feature to have, but when it can’t even find you in the airport with full bars that’s a bad sign. I’ll let this one slide since I did test it while waiting in the airport because I know the LG VX10000 works outside. The touch screen, while it’s nice and bright and big, can sometimes be unresponsive or just slow. The 2-megapixel camera ...
Now that’s a pretty darn good number. Congrats LG! I first saw the LG Viewty at IFA 2007 in Berlin. I'd absolutely love it if I wasn’t so much a business / smartphone kinda guy. Check out the exclusive videos below from the trade show.

LG plans to sell over 100 million handsets in 2008 thus catching up with Sony Ericsson who have already sold about 100 million phones this year.
Nevertheless, Nokia still remains number one on the market and holds one third of it.

(Credit: Verizon Wireless)It appears the the LG Voyager had a very good November. According to a study conducted by Compete, a Boston-based Internet analytics company, the Voyager was the most-shopped cell phone during the last month. While Compete's definition of "most shopped" is a ...

Verizon Wireless has officially launched the Pink version of the LG Venus to add more female appeal to the phone.
All specs remain the same, and the price didn't change either.

“LG MS25 is a clone of the KG20, but it adds 850 MHz GSM support so can be used in America. It is a stylish Windows Mobile 6 Professional smartphone with 2.8″ QVGA display, 2-megapixel camera and microSD slot. The LG MS25’s key feature is its design as it greatly resembles the PRADA phone.”

Starting today the LG Venus, from Verizon Wireless, is available in pink. An ideal handset for the fashionista, the Venus' sleek slider design now comes in a sparkly pink finish with the same mobile features available on the popular black Venus.
The LG Venus features a 2.0-megapixel camera, VZ Navigator capability, a microSD memory slot that can support up to 8 GB of additional memory, and dual-screen displays, the lower with touch navigation.
For music and video fans, the Venus also offers access to VCAST Music, which gives customers access to more than 2.5 million songs that can be purchased and downloaded over-the-air to the phone; and VCAST Video, Verizon Wireless' multimedia service with news, sports and entertainment video clips, 3D games and more. Customers can even browse the Web or text message while listening to the music.
Customers can purchase the LG Venus in both pink and black for $199.99 after $50 mail-in rebate and two-year customer agreement at Verizon Wireless Stores, including those in Circuit City, or online.

DigitalTrends reviews the Sprint LG Muziq: “The Sprint LG Muziq is a flat, rectangular flip-top, about a half inch thick when closed. The wide numbered keys are also flat, divided only by thin, raised separators, but they work well. A traditional circle control, surrounded by the call, power and other buttons, is located above the Sprint LG Muziq’s keypad.
Two noteworthy features of the Sprint LG Muziq include an integrated FM transmitter which allow you to broadcast music to your car stereo so you can listen to your tunes while driving, and streaming music through sprint Radio. There are more than 30 different stations to listen to on the Sprint LG Muziq, including music, talk radio, news, and sports. Both of these features are often missed, and under-marketed in our opinion.
The Sprint LG Muziq has the looks of a RAZR and the music capability of an iPod. Two problems: low memory and weak peripheral functions. Hardcore music buffs will need a much more space to save their music and the Sprint LG Muziq won’t replace their favorite music device. That said, light listeners will love how easy the music player is to use.”

Cnet reviews the LG Trax CU575: “The LG Trax CU575 (AT&T) has a lot of flash going on in its design, with a mirrored surface doubling as the external screen, a brushed-metal front, and a rather thin profile (3.89 by 2.01 inches by 0.62 inch). But the overall style is still rather underwhelming, with a dull, gray overtone and a blocky box shape. The LG Trax CU575 is quite lightweight at 3.55 ounces, and the hinge felt solid when opening and closing the phone. We felt it was comfortable enough to hold in the hand as well as next to the ear.
The good: The LG Trax CU575 has a lightweight design with plenty of features, which include HSDPA support, a megapixel camera, and access to AT&T’s array of multimedia and broadband services.
The bad: The LG Trax CU575 utilizes a strange, skinny touch pad for music player controls, and a terribly flat and crowded keypad that makes it tricky to navigate and dial.
The bottom line: The handset has a host of features that will please the multimedia hungry consumer, as long as you can see past its design flaws.”
