He likes that it has touchscreen, and a slide-out keyboard.

The slide-out keyboard is perfect for her, she loves the phone, and most importantly she uses it all the time

If you have a kid and you surprise them with this phone, I guarantee they will be as happy as if they got a iphone

Fix the bugs before releasing a phone, Verizon!This one has such promise, too, as a nice basic touch phone

I have found that since the phone has a sensitive touch screen, I was accidentally hanging up on people

as the typical end call button on the phone itself, I have found that multiple times as I am talking with someone, my cheek grazes the button on the touch screen enough to end the call as I am still speaking with someone

; QWERTY keyboard has excellent backlighting of keys in dark places; QWERTY shortcut feature lets you simply touch a letter on the keyboard to jump to that letter in your contact list; loud ring volume and listening volume, if set high; the camera takes good, clear pictures

The camera is of course not as great as a smartphone, nor compatible unless you buy a micro disk for purposes of transferring data, which becomes complicated.

This is the most potent of Verizon's "basic" phone offerings, which isn't saying much because the company seems committed to lethargic handsets as a way to keep costs down or drive subscribers to lucrative smartphone contracts

This phone has worked perfectly well for me while I await a hand~me~down smartphone;

This phone should qualify as the best example of the worst possible engineering/unusable junk ever.

It gets fine cell reception and I can hear and talk with people on the line just fine (although when the speaker phone is on it is kind of hard to hear people talk)

love my simple cell with Querty

the external speaker is a little weak but other wise a great and quality value.

I believe this defeats the point of even having the feature and leads you to checking the text messages window most often, which is much slower to access, and requires hitting more buttons to go in and out of the individual conversations

Upgraded from Cosmos phone and the features on this phone are amazing.

It probably has the most features available on a basic phone, most importantly it takes calls and can text.

Most annoying feature is that I pocket dial/text/set alarms and events all the time.

When you are trying to get into your voicemail and you are waiting for the prompt to put your password in, the screen goes dark.

The screen is so sensitive she hangs up on everyone she speaks too.

is dragging the screen to unlock it--sometimes now I have to do THAT two or three times.

I wrote a lengthy review on the Verizon website, but it has never been posted

There weren't many options for the old style, and the LG Extravert 2 had the best (not great, but best) reviews of all the ones I saw on Amazon

These issues are the reason for most of the its bad reviews.

I love this phone and am amazed to see so many poor reviews.
