One of the top complaints I hear from iPhone owners is that the otherwise-excellent handset doesn't work with Verizon's top-notch network. Don't fret Verizonizers, pick up a Dare. This new handset from LG represents a compelling combination of the iPhone's power and ease of use...

I bought the LG Dare a little over a year ago and for the most part I have been happy with it. Or rather, I have slowly come to terms with its bugginess and learned to more or less supress my want to throw it against a brick wall. The phone itself isn't bad. It makes calls well. It has...
Read the full review →The LG Dare has too many shortcomings to be taken seriously as anything more than just a touchscreen phone. The touchscreen is merely average, and the browser is worse than the one in my Palm T/x. It also doesn't help that the onscreen lock feature too easily gets turned on in the case....
Read the full review →It seems to have been a me to phone that just don't fly. Let me get some good things out before the bad. LG has a voice ring tone that tells you who is calling or texting you. I love this. That is all the good. The voice recognition was good when i bought it but after updates it asks me over...
Read the full review →The Dare was really fun for the first week. Then the faults started to pile up and the annoyances took away the shiny fun like a toothache ruins an ice cream cone. THE PUDDING Calls seemed as clear as cell calls ever are. I usually use a headset because I have a tendency to move the handset...
Read the full review →I decided to upgrade to an LG Dare on a whim while visiting the Verizon store. I originally had no intention of spending the extra money, but the touchscreen and general layout of the phone was extremely enticing. However, after the new gadget excitement wore off, some of the shortcomings of the...
Read the full review →The Dare covers the basics (SMS, e-mail, phone, contacts, browser) and does them well with fun little transitions, useful tools and, more importantly, intuitively. That said, features like universal search, visual voice mail, Wifi and games are all things that would make this phone so much...
Read the full review →... it's not an iPhone. Verizon does have a good network, but... it's not an iPhone. Could say the camera, but the new iPhone 3GS screwed that. Enough with the comparison, it's won't win there. The Dare has some really great points. Verizon does have a good network and...
Read the full review →To preface, i owned a Samsung Glyde prior to the dare, and the dare feels like the HTC Hero by comparison. To start the phone comes with a 3.2 megapixel that takes great pictures and video. Calls sound great and because of the sensors above the screen senses your face it minimizes the chances...
Read the full review →I have had this phone for about a year. I came off the LG 7000 flip phone. I think we all agree that this was never meant to be an iPhone killer or even competition but it is hard not to compare the two. The resistive screen is just frustrating. It has a lock button but when I have it in my...
