LG enV2

User rating 4.4   Read reviews - Add review
The enV2 shares all of the same specs as the original, but has been repackaged in a smaller, lighter and cleaner looking form factor. Key features include a 2.0 megapixel camera, full QWERTY keyboard, EVDO data, GPS, media player and expandable memory (microSD).
What’s Good: Sleeker and smaller than the original EnV.  Comfortable QWERTY keyboard and QVGA internal display make texting fun.  Huge external keypad makes dialing easy.  VCAST music and video support.  Support for laptop tethering (phone as modem).

What’s Not Good: External keypad makes the phone look like a retro calculator, although I suppose that could be seen as a good thing.  Space bar is small and oddly placed.  Verizon’s menu system can be confusing.  Limited Bluetooth functionality.  Still a little bulky.

Bottom Line: Verizon and LG shrunk the EnV and the results are good.  While the original EnV was an innovative but (very) big and expensive high-end phone, the EnV2 is smaller, cheaper, and slots into the middle of VZW’s messaging phone lineup.  Text addicts who don’t need Voyager’s touchscreen — and additional size and cost — should find QWERTY bliss with this affordable and capable handset.

Its Ok

Experience: 6 Months
Pros: Easy to text inside and out, 2.0 megapixel camra, slideshow, sharp display

Cons: Terribly small outside screen, broke 2 times, shuts off, battery gets worse and worse, ok design, only up and down arrow keys on the front.

Summary: I upgraded to this from my env because it broke, and this isent to much of a upgrade, i personaly rather have my old env. It has good things but more bad things about it. I am getting a new phone in Febuary. It is not i reapeat NOT worth the 120$ they want for it right now.

enV2 is OK at best.

Pros: The keyboard and easyness to use.

Cons: Any wind while on the phone and the phone breaks up. Whoever youre talking to has a hard time understanding you. When you use AOL instant messenger and get a call, if you receive anymore messages most of the time, the phone will reboot, the message will be lost and whoever youre on the phone with will think you hung up on them. I literally had to replace the enV 3 times, then Verizon replaced 2 enV2s, then they even blamed the memory card and after a new memory card, it STILL happened. 5 phon

Summary: The phone overall is OK, the cons describe my feelings on the phone. I pay $120 on average a month, I expect a phone to work and not reboot randomly when it wants to. 5 phones, same problem with EVERY SINGLE 1. I like LG, I don't like the enV/enV2. I use the AIM program a lot, I average 3000-4000 text messages a month including AIM, this phone overall is a disappointment. They need to fix the AIM program and find out why every single phone errors.

this is so sick

From: garden city, GA (United States)
Experience: 1 Weeks
Pros: Battery life is amazing longest ive seen one last on a cell phone! and thats after phone calls web browser and my hubby using it to text message for and hour! still has 3 bars :-) and its been on all day wow!

Cons: Does not have a full html browser. but if your reading this you have a computer to use for that.

Summary: I had tried the original env out a while back on prepay but returned it.the phone was awesome but worked better on a regular service plan. and i had a $400 deposit so i had to wait to get a regular service plan.so now a year later i got service with verizon after a agonizing nightmare with sprint( only went with them cuz cheaper activation fee) anywho, and i got the env2 i can do everything i need to on this.

a list of what i like :-)
* The front being very simple, nothing to get damaged (at least not easily damaged)great for making phone calls you can access your contact list dedicated music key and check messages.yes the external screen is small but i got a pic of me and hubby on there that looks nice.

*flip it open and you can check your email
chat on AOL YAHOO OR MSN ( hubby in military so its great for keeping in touch durring deployments ;-) vz navigator. you can find directions find a restraunt or even what time a movies starts at your local theatre :-)

You can access traffic weather and maps.
on this phone you can listen to music play games and check the mobile web ( not an HTML browser) but thats okay because if you need to do that much surfing on the internet you a computer is just fine for that. it also has vcast videos.

I know this phone aint the fanciest but honestly for most people this phone does everything you could possibly need during a normal day simple easy to use and great for those who have loved ones serving in the military or who live far away!
