I've had the voyager for about 2 weeks now. i'm not really impressed with it but im giving it a fair shot
its a pain in the ass to use the touch screen sometimes i have to press it a couple times for it to acknowledge. the web browser is horrible . the key board is great and screen is also very good both of them . i got the phone for 99.99 so it was a great deal and i would never leave verizon there customer service is un-parallel. my voyager accidentally fell out of its clip and got a dent in the trim and verizon replaced it for free, the silicon cover i had for it ripped accidentally and they also replaced it for free. they are truly a great company although they are expensive and limit phone manufacturers to what they can include on the phone. but as for the voyager i would not have got it if it was more than $100.
Yeah I'm definitely purchasing this phone. I'm stuck with Verizon, so I might as well dump this chocolate piece of crap and get a good phone! =] I think the specs and phone look great, hopefully the price isn't too outrageous!
when is the photo gallery coming?
Upon further indepth analysis I've noticed no mention of any internal hd.. it seems that all the space you'll have is microSD. too bad it's not 8GB or 16GB plus the microSD slot.. oh well.
Damn, Verizon is really getting a lot of nice phones lately!
If only the Tilt was made by Samsung, and on Verizon...
Yeah, I ditched Sprint for the phones. Don't ask the people below... there seems to be a lot of hate for Verizon but so far it's been a good ride.
I was going to get this phone, I was planning on it, but since It doesn't have wifi, I will probably end up with the Samsung 760
Where is the WIFI???? Verizon is so freakn greedy everything has to be based on the pay for services..add a stupid WIFI chip for fast browsing at home...potential free VOIP calling over WIFI etc....no everything has to occur over pay for EVDO services....no thanks.
Verizon, I don't know how many customers you have wooed by barfing the brand name all over your fine gadgets but what I do know is that you have lost one. I wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole.
Does the Verizon name clash with your Gucci shoes?
doesn't have Mac support, no internal HD, and on "the Network" all means not gonna buy it
How do you launch Safari?
Couldn't resist.
you pull out ur iphone! :)
I have not had any luck with LG phones. There is no way I'm going to buy this thing.
After looking at the specs for this phone I would say the Nokia N95-8G leaves it for dead (HTC Tytn II even more). Lets pick a few obvious flaws, Wifi - NO, Flash - NO, 3.2MP-> 5MP Camera - NO.
I was about to say it is strikingly similar to the Nokia Communicator range, but missing a lot of the nice features which make them indispensible for business people (and Bruce Willis sidekicks).
Ominx - Verizon does offer MAC support for a lot of the devices it sells, but it does take them a few months for it to roll out on new handset. Its like this most of the consumer PC users on the Market use Windows, if your more into Graphics then you use a MAC, then you have everyone else that use some type of Linux system because they dont like Windows or Mac and rather write programs them self. Wait a few month they will have the bugs work out of the handset and have MAC support
Don't worry Verizon will disable all the free features as the norm for them and then add the cripple ware and then turn around a couple months later and do a press release saying they have this wonderful new software addon for the phone "hoping you forgot they disabled all that free stuff that already comes in the phone"
Hmmm, funny how everyone is orgasming over the iphone and saying the voyager doesn't compare, but as I recall, didn't Apple have to LOWER the price after a few weeks due to glitches on the phone? Then REFUND the customers who paid the ridiculous retail price of $600? I have had Verizon for a while now, and have never had a serious problem with any of my phones. So I can't wait for this phone to come out.
Yea ok like im gonna go buy this piece of crap phone that has every feature disabled on it hahaha. Its like they morphed the chocolate and the lg vx9900 together and made this iphone wannabe. As soon as my contract is up im switching to at&t and getting me an iphone! Screw Verizon! Screw their shitty OS they install on every phone!
I love how you guys are comparing this regular consumer phone to PDAs...
My Verizon contract is up.. I'm shopping around. I'm also tired of Verizon making every little feature pay service. I did look around though and all the other guys ATT, tmobile, Sprint, etc... seem to all have plans around the same price range. I'm looking at family plans with 3 phones.
MEH!
What a shame OS X isn't supported. I probably would've gotten this if they at least made their sync program compatible. Does Verizon think all its customers are Windows users? Or maybe this is to spite Apple...which they will fail doing.
Hopefully a third party like Mark/Space steps up to the plate.
this is like verizon's version of the lg prada, so why would the voyager have wifi if the lg prada didn't have wifi? unlimited internet, vcast videos, and the option of downloading music right to your phone all comes included for $15/month. if you guys are gonna pay $300 for a phone but not pay $15/month to use the data, then you need to buy a motorola w315 instead and save your $300. =)
Looking at the specs it says it has a video player for WMV and a few other formats. Does anyone know if it would then be possible to put say downloaded tv episodes and stuff like that on the phone as long as its WMV and its on your memory card...? That would be a big plus for me...
I think the voyager won't be a iPhone killer but it still has some stuff the iphone dose not have like its 3g internet connection
I have been with Verizon for about 4 years now and yes...i have had problems...but nothing major. i like the features that this phone offers and its look. i am not really big on the Vcast, TV, and browsing. On the verizon website it says that the voyager can be pre-ordered for 299.99 but will this price be raised when it is available in stores. I do not want to pay the price of an iphone for this phone which doesnt have everything the iphone offers, but i would like to stay with verizon. All advice is appreciated. THANX
Phone looks awesome, but in order to complete my love of it, I would like a question asked: I currently own an enV, and I love it. I also HATE the chocolate, but it has one feature on it that I wish was on my phone: the ability to do other things while listening to music. Does the Voyage have this? Also what kind of headphone jack does it have, and was it made the right way?!? I had to have my phone replaced twice because the headphone jack was defective.
DOES THE VOYAGER HAVE INTERNET BROWSING LIKE THE IPHONE?
