LG Versa Review!! Best, Best, Best...and WOW!

nicknrm · 03-11-2009, 10:14 PM

I received the LG Versa today from Verizon Wireless, via FedEx. It came about 3 hours late (it was supposed to arrive by noon, arrived by 3pm) but that was the only bad part in my day!!

The Versa is an amazing device. It's by far the best phone I have ever used on the Verizon Wireless network. It has few issues and those will probably be worked out soon.

To start, you all may already know about the Versa and what it is...but I'll clue you in if you don't know. The LG Versa is a brand new device released a bit over a week ago from Verizon Wireless. It is a full touch screen phone with a DETACHABLE QWERTY keyboard. Detachable means you can have it or remove it. It is also supposed to have other detachable modules, in the future. The Versa, short for Versatile, has most of the same features as any other Verizon Wireless V CAST device. It does lack Mobile TV, which may come in the future. It has Visual Voicemail, V CAST Video + Music With Rhapsody, EV-DO REV. A, and much much more.

My Experience and Review:
This phone is amazing amazing amazing! I was shocked when I opened my box. I have watched many reviews, which all say it is "good" but it's really excellent.

Features
The best feature is the HTML Web Browser. It can load almost any webpage almost as quickly as I can visit this site on my computer! It can load this site rapidly and almost every aspect of the FULL HTML VERSION of this site works perfectly! I even used the arcade and played a bit of snake from the Versa. It can also stream some music, from few sites. Also, did you ever imagine an internet explorer type experience from your cell phone? Well, Tabbed browsing has arrived on the Versa.

The Detachable QWERTY keyboard is a huge luxury...it is just awesome. I'm not sure how to put that into a description, but I just love it.

You can multitask while listening to music! Serf the web, send a message, or whatever else your heart desires while listening to your favorite hits!

The features are limitless, I recommend watching a full review to see them in action!

Call Quality
This phone has exceptional call quality. It sounds almost crystal clear, as does most of the Verizon Wireless devices. It does have some bad feedback while talking on the phone with the QWERTY keyboard attached, but not too bad. I can handle that.

You can view a few good video reviews on this phone:

Any thoughts? Questions? Concerns? Or whatever else...post here. I'll check frequently back and reply to posts. I am making this a sticky for about ONE WEEK.

i got it about a week ago and i LOVE it!! I have never loved a cell phone before. its EXCELLENT! the web browsing is superior, the screens are so clear and easy to use. my only complaint is i can't get it to connect to my computer via usb. it could be my POS computers fault. if anyone knows a solution to this please let me know. it refuses to sync with my phone.

I look at the Versa, i like it, but i can't step down to a 2mp camera, and personally i found the camera/video features a priority when choosing a cell phone.

I took pictures with a Storm (3.2 MP) and the Versa (2.0MP). The Storm has an OK camera but the Versa's 2.0 MP camera is like really good...I was shocked. The image is clearer than the Voyager's. I'm not sure how this works, since the quality should be nearly the same.
