Introduction

In my preview article, I took you around the LG Voyager and showcased its many features. In this article I'll go more in-depth into the features of the phone, including attempting to playback video from the memory card.

First Looks

The LG Voyager VX10000 is a dual screen phone. Two 400x240 widescreen LCDs drive the unit, and both the internal and external screens measure 2.81" diagonally. While Verizon might like to qualify the screens as "large" in their advertising documentation, they're not the largest screens on the market in mobile phones. The screen quality is very good for a cell phone; the screen is bright and clear with a resolution of 166 pixels per inch. Going between the two screens was no delay - and the phone is smart enough to turn off whichever screen you're not using so you aren't wasting any battery life.

Inside the phone is a full QWERTY keyboard. The keyboard is comfortable to type on and the buttons are large enough for just about everyone's fingers. There is also the option of closing the phone and using a touch-type keyboard on the touch sensitive LCD, though I find myself hitting backspace often to clear mistyped characters (which isn't entirely the phone's fault, as I'm more careless when typing due to being spoiled by auto-correction on other phones).

The phone has a slot for a MicroSD card, the largest of which is a 6GB card currently priced around $71 from Newegg. However, I've read reports on the web that the LG phones wont support anything beyond 3.95GB so buyer beware - not only do you have to purchase your own memory for the phone, there is a hidden limit in the software.


On the side of the phone are a series of buttons and a switch. The switch is to toggle the lock/unlocked state of the phone. The top button is to activate the phone's built in 2MP camera, and the bottom button is to control the volume.

On the right side of the phone is a 2.5mm headphone jack. Unfortunately the standard headphone jack size is 3.5mm, so if you have an existing set of headphones you want to use you'll need an adapter.
