My love/hate relationship with my LG Voyager

Labels:


Ipod killer? Nope not even close…….

Wanna know whats amazing about that statement coming from me? I have NEVER touched an iPhone. The Voyager is lacking…… in all areas. Of course what’s con’s without some pro’s? So I’ll start with them.

Reasons I “like” or even better I am content with my Voyager.

  • For HTML browsing I only have to pay $15 for the Vcast package
  • I can easily use it as a modem for my Macbook over Bluetooth
  • The qwerty keyboard, and believe it or not I like it’s looks.

Now the reasons I get aggrivated with it

  • The screen just isn’t big enough for me
  • The touchscreen is in now way comparable to the feel of an iPhone (I have an IPOD Touch so I know the feel)
  • It’s not a PDA by any means
  • And the biggest fault….. VERIZON software

Overall the Voyager is a good phone when quality, and looks are concerned. But when it comes to usability and a great experience for a Tech geek it fails …. miserably. I just keep wishing every day one or two things would happen. Either Verizon wakes up and realizes people would buy more of their PDA/Smartphones if the broadband service didnt cost $50 for unlimited added to your calling plan. Or the Iphone comes to Verizon. If they can offer full HTML unlimited browsing for $15 on the Voyager then why can’t they do the same with a PDA or Smartphone?

I have a T-Mobile Dash. I want to upgrade to the Wing. Sorry to hear about the Voyager. My wife and I had kicked around the idea of switching to get one.
