Review: LG VX8500 Chocolate
" It is reasonably attractive, if simply designed, but the touch sensitive controls can be maddening. The wrong theme choice only makes things worse due to the horrible animated menu system and all of the delays that come with it. Our review unit was also covered in somebody's fingerprints, which is understandable since the device is impossible to keep clean.
If you are not the right type of user, this handset can be infuriating. I don't imagine that anybody will prefer the touch controls over hardware buttons - no matter how much practice with them they have. But as long as you use the right theme, the phone will at least be usable, even if only for 2 or so hours of talk time.....
