LG Chocolate VX8600 Review

The LG VX8600 by Verizon Wireless is considered to be the 'flip version of the popular Chocolate phone that was introduced this past summer. Both phones look to be in the same family, due to the shiny black plastic, chrome trim, and touch-sensitive music control buttons. The VX8600 features dual color displays, 1.3MP CMOS camera, Bluetooth, music player, and MicroSD card slot. Included in the retail package is the phone, 800mAh battery, charger, and manual.

Design:

The major difference between the two is that the Chocolate is a slider phone and the VX8600 is a flip phone. The VX8600's dimensions of 3.89H x 1.93W x 0.58D makes it thinner than the Chocolate's size of 3.80H x 1.88W x 0.69D, and closer to size of the RAZR's 3.86H x 2W, x 0.57D. Not to mention the weight is 3.26oz, compared to 3.53oz on the Chocolate, and 3.49oz on the RAZR. We are also glad to see that the VX8600 sports an internal antenna, something we would have liked to see on the VX8300. The phone fits more comfortably in the hand than the Chocolate and does not feels as bulky when placed in your pants pocket. The flip opens and closes smoothly, but we can slightly hear the plastic parts in the hinge rubbing agents each other.
