Reviews of the LG enV VX9900 - black (Verizon Wireless)

    CNET Review

    November 27, 2006

    The Good: The LG enV offers an impressive feature set, an easy-to-use QWERTY keyboard, and decent call quality.

    The Bad: The enV's streaming video quality could be better, and the boxy design has its quirks. Also, its external display is small and not very useful.

    The Bottom Line: The design still isn't perfect, but the LG enV is a high-quality messaging and multimedia cell phone.
