“The edges of the touchscreen are less responsive than the rest of it—when you flip to the QWERTY layout for text messaging, for instance, you might have to tap the space button more than once, or at least aim for the top of it (in the gallery there’s a picture of me mashing the center of the key HARD but it’s still not registering).”
Not Rated

Phone Arena
“For starters, the touch screen just isn’t on par with the rest of the competition. Also, some of the applications and menus aren’t as intuitive as the others.”

  1. No manual. Instead, they give you a CD which would NOT run. Could not even find out how to access the charger port, so no juice. I called for help and they could not answer even this

2 The phone’s finsh is awful. Fingerprints immediately appear wherever i touch it (this on the Red Wine model) I wipe them and more appear where I held it during wiping

3 NO GPS Even the Matrix and cheaper Samsung have ths

  1. Camera ability is limited

I am on my third LG Vu in a little over a week from Best Buy. The first 2 phones died after a day of use. Could not get the display to come on after charging all night. I had my third LG VU phone for two days now. The problem with this phone is I never get more then 2 bars of signal. I can not make calls at my office desk with this phone. With my old Motorola Razor V3 I always had 3 bars of single at my desk. I had to get out of my car for the first time to call my girlfriend to let her know that I have arrived at her apartment the Lg Vu would not work in the car.

Is the Lg Vu a weaker preforming phone then Motorola Razor V3? or should I take it back to Best Buy for another phone again?

You most likely have the Cu915 which is the older vu, they have a new one the Cu920 which has gps, but yes i am a fingerprint freak.

I love the phone… dang the 1st time you start using it………..It like taking
an intellegence test. I would like to have had a manuel instead of the CD, which was a joke.
