LG ENV2 owners chime in.

Thinking about picking up an LG ENV2.

Pros? Cons?

Some of my peeves about phones:
1) Can you actually feel it vibrate in your pocket when set on "vibe"?
2) Is the speaker on the speaker phone loud enough to actually use?

Any input is appreciated.

As an employee there are many other phones I would rather use than the envy2.

To answer your questions though... YES you can feel it vibrate and YES the speakerphone is loud but only when the phone is opened.

You are very limited to what you can do with the phone when you are using it as a "bar" style phone and the outside screen is very small.

I can point you in the right direction but need to know more about what you plan to use the phone for and what you are looking to get out of it.

not really dude. unless ur wearing chick jeans u cant feel shit. i have to put my fone on my lap when im on my car and on vibe just so i know that it vibrated. when im walking... forget it.. u really cant feel it at all. speaker fone feat is koo but i rarely use it (who wants to hear ur convo anyway?? thats why i hate boost mobile).

another peev that i have about the fone is the position of the mic. its at the bottom of the fone (the outer edge) and it picks up a lot of wind noise when walking outdoors.

other than that... the fone has a nice keyboard that u can type easily with and a pretty good camera for a fone.

I feel it and I don't wear 'chick jeans.'

I love my ENV2, awesome phone.

Camera doesn't have some features that I would like though. (i.e. macro/flash).

I have it too. Personally I can never feel it when I set it on vibrate, even if I put it on my desk I can get a text and not notice. Unlike my old phone (razr) the ringer is nice and loud.

I love the phone the only thing thats kind of irritating is where the camera is positioned, you have to hold the phone funky so your fingers don't get in the way. And if you have internet you have to use the volume buttons to scroll, it's pretty awkward.

The bluetooth feature works great though, I use it with my Macbook all the time.
