Based on name, itв s evident to assume the Venus is a paisley telephone with bezels. In reality, it is the modern sleek call from LG. (The stylish society released a $900 USD Prada ring extreme year.) And it is indurate not to fall in crash with its two consistent design, slick atramentous (or, whether you desire, pink) finish, dual shade faceplate, and well-placed touchscreen. Looks aside, however, there isnв t yet substance to impress.

The LG Venus from Verizon has the looks of a sleek occupation slogan and the functionality of a mid-range melody handset. It's basically a Chocolate Vx8550 with a nicer-looking circumstances and a mini touchscreen where the D-pad array should be. In fact, the software is so comparable we're not certain why it wasn't blameless marketed as an evolution in that line. Other than a sleeker interface, the solitary authentic improvement the Venus has over the Chocolate is its touchscreen. Typically phones either potency for a adequate touch screen or none at all; the Venus is solo owing to its touchscreen is below and seperate from the leading screen, and alone replaces D-pad functionality.

The virtual buttons bring about add a group of flexibility and usability to the mostly guideline Verizon user interface. When you inception the phone, you can instantly caper to messages, contacts, calls, or a shortcut aliment by urgent clear, self-explanatory buttons. Within sub-menus, the virtual buttons let you exchange settings or options quickly.


LG Venus VX8800 is a measure bell which features a split touchscreen with bigness of 320 x 240-pixel LCD on the top half and a 1.5-inch, 176 x 240-pixel on the backside half. Other features subsume EV-DO info support, microSD slot and air players (MP3, WMA, AAC jazz files).\


Design
The front of the Venus has two screens. The top is a regular screen and the bottom is a smaller touch screen. The touch screen is used to arrangement options depending on what advantage the user is operating.

For example, when bringing up the messaging service, the touch screen shows virtual arrows for navigating the menu, and buttons for "settings," "options" and "back." When on the bell screen, the buttons spending money to "message," "option" "call" and "back.

The touchscreen allows for up to four soft major options, and can exhibit context-specific buttons, such as displaying media controls during folk playback. This aspect isn't strictly more appropriate than its physical counterpart however: it was sporadically unresponsive and didn't grant for close pressing. The touchscreen did sanction us curious in seeing how this technology testament be implemented in coming phones. It's a indicative action forward from the touch controls on the advanced chocolate that were nearly unusable.

The Venus extremely supports video playback capabilities using the V Toss Piece store. We place on VH1's The Salt-N-Pepa Show; the dancing featured in the video was expeditious on the other hand a bit pixelated, and the V Shy controls took up approximately a third of the screen. The clip played gone its unabridged 2 minutes and 16 seconds without a skip. Our 320 x 240-pixel videos came outside sunny as well. When we had the phone paired up to Bluetooth and played the videos back, however, we heard a clicking clamour forthcoming from the phone, all the more with the album turned off.

Enjoy most Verizon Wireless handsets, the Venus supports VZ Navigator for GPS functionality. It costs $9.99 for a monthly subscription or $2.99 per day. Unfortunately, it lacks base for the Chaperone GPS locator feature.
