The 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 Venus is a very likeable phone, and it does a fine job as a standard Verizon Wireless V Cast device. Music handling was as good as any V Cast phone and GPS performance was also good, but the device could have been much cooler, and hopefully the next versions will take better advantage of this innovative design. Release: November 2007. Price: $200.
Pros: Innovative touch screen design. Cool menu updates Verizon Wireless' standard look. Stereo Bluetooth and updated music player.
Cons: Touch screen is often used as a gimmick, never reaches full potential. Call quality disappointing. Messaging and Web browsing just average at best.
