Its a total package,

This review is from: LG VX3300 CELL PHONE VERIZON CELLULAR CDMA (Wireless Phone)
My opinion is based on having Verizon service for five years and using several phones (LG and Motorola). This is hands down the best phone I've ever had. I noted one user complained about battery life and also noted they seem to be using it a lot in weak signal area. This is a trimode phone that may flip to analog mode in a weak area. If that happens, any analog phone will suck the battery dry in no time. they should configure the phone to prevent flipping to analog mode.
I wanted analog because there is a large section of backwoods Texas that has the old GTE analog service still present. The rest of the time, I am around big cities and strong digital network presence. I travel all of the US in my job and use the phone everywhere. My previous phone was a VX4400 which had some bugs. This phone is everything the VX4400 should have been, plus it has a very loud ringer, vibrator, and one of the better speakers I've heard on a cell phone. I love the small size and light weight. This phone was acquired on a "new every two" plan. I originally got the VX6100 and found that it was more cumbersome, had shorter battery life and a tinny sounding speaker. I had no use for the camera, so traded back for the VX3300. My wife has had the VX3200 for over a year and she loves it. This is the latest re-incarnation of the VX3200. I purchased the mobile office kit and it works well with this phone. I've used Verizon digital network service with my PC for two years and its been a real boost when I am in the airport and need to do some email without having to pay extra. One of these days I'll have a blackberry or treo when my company will let me hook it into our corporate email system. Until then, this is perfect for what I want.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Phone,
By Cliff Walk "Cliff" (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LG VX3300 CELL PHONE VERIZON CELLULAR CDMA (Wireless Phone)
I've always had a Verizon phone, but I've always had trouble with them. I'm a phone abuser, and when it comes to cheap phones, they never last long. Until recently I was using a very cheap Motorola, and it could not stand up to my abuses. I finally switched to this phone, and I must say, I'm very happy.
I've never felt the need for a camera phone, interchangable faceplates, downloading ringtones, or even playing games on my phone. Voice-activated dialing and text-messaging have been things I like to use, and this LG is great for them. The huge colour display is a plus. I've never liked squinting at a tiny, monochrome LCD display -- like I said, cheap phones. The display is easy to read, and very bright; you can even use it as a flashlight. The buttons are easy to read and easy to press. I have no trouble dialing or answering calls. The features on this phone are also excellent, albeit limited. I use the calandar function all the time, and it's simple and easy to write down appointments and dates to remember. The alarm is clear and loud, louder than my alarm clock next to my bed. The speakerphone is also great. It's loud, crisp, and no one has trouble hearing me on the other end. While I've never been a fan of interchangeable faceplates, the LG doesn't disappoint me. I use the one in the picture because I'm too lazy to actually buy a new one, but the ones LG offers are great. Overall, this is an excellent phone: easy to use, sturdy, and stylish.

not as good as the 3200 it replaces!,
This review is from: LG VX3300 CELL PHONE VERIZON CELLULAR CDMA (Wireless Phone)
We had 4 of the 3200 on a family plan, but recently one of them got lost and I had to buy a replacement. Alas, the great 3200 wasn't available anymore, so I got this one instead. Still a good phone, but not nearly as good as the phone it replaces.
First, for reasons I don't understand, LG removed the charger jack. You now have to charge the phone through the accessory connector, which means that you probably are going to keep the rubber cover for that connector permanently off the phone or it becomes tedious. This is a real step back. Second, the phone has lots of additional silly ringtones, but far fewer "normal" rings. I assume that they are trying to position the phone specifically as a "kid and teenager" phone and try to discourage adults from buying it. Guess what: I used to have a camera and web-capable phone, but I purposefully downgraded to the 3200 because I wanted a no-frills phone with a built-in speakerphone. If my phone gets lost or breaks, and Verizon doesn't have an adequate phone by then to replace it, I will proably rather change service providers than buy a "kid spec" phone or one of the humungous clunky camera/web/video gizmos that they currently target adults with.
