This is another superior phone from LG and Verizon.


Highs: V CAST Mobile TV & Music; 2.2" swivel T-bar screen; excellent 1.3MP camera; stereo Bluetooth; microSD memory card slot

Lows: Awkward screen position for phone calls; arbitrary screen position requirements; no Bluetooth stereo for TV; no external music controls

Introduction

Editor's Choice

Along with the Samsung SCH-u620, this is one of two phones that you can watch Live TV on using V CAST Mobile TV. That's live TV on your cell phone, broadcast like regular TV using a technology called FLO TV from a company called MediaFLO, a subsidiary of QUALCOMM. Of the two phones, this is the superior model and not only because of its unique (in the U.S. at least) swivel T-bar screen that swings 45 degrees perpendicular from the phone's body from portrait to landscape mode, but because it has a slightly larger screen that gives a tad-bit better TV picture. The VX9400 also runs TV longer and offers slightly speedier EV-DO service. At $199.99 US with the usual contract stipulations and rebates, it's also $50 more expensive.
