I need a cool ass Verizon phone.

What would you guys recamend for me. My old phone broke so I need a new one.

I had the LG VX5300 so pretty much anything is an upgrade for me.

I want something like sleek and stylish and when i pull it out people will be like ohhhhhhhhhhh no he didn't

EDIT: but it has to be affordable, I gotta buy this off ebay preferably under 100$

it dosn't really have to be stylish I just want a cool phone.

If you need VZ Navigator, go for the LG VX8300
If not, I'd recommend the Moto E815. It's a great phone (I had it before). It's a discontinued phone but I still think it's one of the best VZ phones. I dont use it anymore because it doesn't support the VZ Nav, as I use it very often.
You can find them both for less than $100 on Ebay. Just make sure you check the ESN before buying them

My wife chose the red KRZR. All of her students are in a state of shock because they all jumped on the RAZR and are stuck for another 2 years. Motorola makes very good phones, but this one also has the wow factor.

A phone a very personal choice. Can you take a friend of the opposite sex to get their reaction?

another vote for the 8300 or 8600 lgs. Great phones.

the best phone verizon has to offer as far as reception durability is the lgvx9900 env if you want a good device than i recomend the lgvx8300

LG 8300 is a solid device. cheap and reliable.

Do NOT buy the KRZR. I just returned mine on a recall...apparently one of MANY recalls on the KRZR. If you want a good solid phone with lots of features,Id go with the LG VX8600,The LG VX9900[ENV],Or the Samsung SCH-U740 double flip. Ive dealt with all 3 of these phones and all 3 are fairly comprable,except for the fact that the VX8600 doesnt have a keyboard....

What recall is that? I have the KRZR and hate it, but im stuck with it. So if I can get rid of it for the 8300 I would like to know how. Thanks

They don't hold a charge for more than a few hours,The front GLASS breaks,and the reception is horrible.

The reception is mediocre at best, the charge only lasts a day if i dont use it, So I can return it on these facts? Was it a motorola recall or a verizon recall?

Yes. And Im pretty sure the recall was from both Verizon & Motorola. On a single charge this phone should last more than 2 days....

I just emailed verizon to see what they are going to do about my phone. I doubt they will admit to it but we will see. If they don't reply to my email or give me the run around I will go to one of the stores and see what they have to say.

Gauranteed you see a few other people returning KRZR's at the store also....
The email probably wont get results,youre best bet is to go into the store & make a stink about it like everybody else did. Mind you,I paid $250 for the KRZR when it first came out & got screwed on the trade-in value...So always go to the store & deal with these ppl so ya dont get screwed on the replacement either.
