Worst Phone Ever!!
This is the worst mobile phone I have ever owned and I include my first phone in this statement.The phone doesn't hold a charge, drops calls for no reason, won't charge when plugged in, the list goes on.Everyone I know who has ever had this phone disliked it.Don't buy this phone, you'll regret it.

Good Phone
I don't know what these people are talking about this is a good phone. I had no problems with it at all. I loved it.

his phone is awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you're on the move a lot and need the power of hands-free operation and the convenience of push-to-talk communication, the LG VX4700 is right up your alley. This handset offers speaker-independent voice recognition, which allows any user to dial a number by speaking the name of a contact from a phone book, or by speaking the digits of a phone number. When this voice technology is used with the two-way speaker phone and a prominent speaker that lets you talk when the clamshell is open or closed, the VX4700 allows for true hands-free operation. Plus, with a push-to-talk subscription from Verizon Wireless, you can communicate walkie-talkie style with a co-worker or entire teams anywhere in the country.Read more

Features

• Push to Talk – digital two-way service for one-to-one communication (PTT service required)
• Speaker-Independent Voice Recognition – make calls and access other essential features
• Use voice commands for dialing calls, voice mail, digit dial, service alerts, missed calls, contacts, driving, announce, time and date, phone status
• Driving Mode activates speakerphone and voice commands for safe, hands-free operation
• Polyphonic Ringer and Sound Capability (CMX MIDI format)

I hate this phone
I got this phone in January and it broke IN HALF in May.The ribbon wire that holds the phone together just frayed apart.I wasn't rough with the phone.I didn't drop it on the ground.This phone is just poorly made.From day one it started falling apart.Small pieces and screws fell out and eventually it just split in two.The phone spontaneously goes into "driving mode" which is pointless and announces whoever is calling.The speaker phone button on the side goes on all the time when you don't want it to also.After the phone broke in half, I had it replaced by my insurance.That was in June.Now it is the beginning of August and the speaker button on the side of the phone is permanently lodged into the phone and won't come out.So my phone is constantly on speaker phone and the Verizon Wireless store won't do anything about it.Don't get this phone.
Not as good as it's predecessor
I had my old LG for three years until it died. I upgraded to this one and have been wanting my old one back every since. I'll start with cons since they're easy and then add the pros if I can think of any.
The best phone I've ever owned!
Finally, finally, finally. A phone that is GOOD at what it's supposed to do. First I'll tell you, I'm not impressed by all the ridiculous gadgets they put on phones so they can sell more of them. Cameras, MP3 players and the like. I have a Sony Digital camera and an Ipod. I wouldn't want to use those to call my mom, just as I don't want to use my phone to take lousy pictures.

Try tracfone instead !!!
Tracfone gives better deals in minutes.It is perfect for those with light, in town usage. It only uses one unit per minute, two if you're outside of your area code(roaming), and long distance doesn't cost any extra. The airtime doesn't cost a fortune, and you have no credit checks, or monthly bills. Reception is good because they utilize many different providers instead of just one. They also have a referral program, so you can earn 100 extra minutes for free if your friends and family buy one too(they also get 180 minutes). If you want a referral to get started with 100 free minutes, just e-mail me at amitgames@yahoo.com , I'd be happy to send you the link! ... Read more
