@ross19902008 It is a good starter Smartphone with a touch screen. It is easy to use and definitely slick phone. It comes in two colors black and purple, so you do have options. Good camera, good memeory, and Swype technology.
@5starchick310 Using the Android Market, there are a few good Ringtone Creators you could use. You use a song you would like, cut it down, and then add it to your sounds to make for a ringtone. Or you could use VZW's Media Center to buy or get some ringtones for free!
@1eaglesfan966065 I would suggest using an MP3 ringtone maker on your device and computer. Using that tone you received - just cut it down to a few seconds and than add it as a "notficiation" in your sound folder
@WebkinzTvTable Questions 1) There is a section in the App Market that is labeled "Top Free" . There are A TON of free apps for your phone. Querstion 2) Yes, you will be using data to browse and download the apps to your phone. This should not be a problem because of the data package you have on your phone.
@Classical4eva Battery life is pretty good. Active time and talk time average 7.5 hours which can adjust to how much you are using the phone. If you are a heavy phone person, your battery will drain faster. Do not fret, since this is a ANDROID phone , you have many apps that control your battery consumption.
for the kzurb sonar the k is silent so it would be pronounced 'zurb sonar' and sonar, I'm hoping you know how to pronounce. Its just like kzar for a Russian ruler/king, kzar is pronounced zar.
Hey, when you use Wi-Fi on the LG Vortex, is it like free internet? I would like to use the internet allot if I get this phone, and I just want to get the $15 plan, and want to use the Wi-Fi most of the time. Will that work good if I do?
@emu142 Yes, this phone is good! It has a great feel when it is in your hands and has a bright screen thats responsive to the touch. It is a fast phone and is android based. Camera on it is okay and is easy to use. You will throughly enjoy this phone.
@x3BRAiNDEAAD The volume settings are the same as most phones. There is a vibrate that you can choose to vibrate all the time or just when it is on silent. So there is a vibe + ring option.
@x3BRAiNDEAAD I used to have an enV touch. Volume was so low. This phone is much louder. My husband has a captivate, my phone is louder than his.
There are four things to set on the volume and I think that is great. There is ringer, media, notification and alarm. Much more volume control than previous phones.
You won't be disappointed if you get a Vortex. I sure am not. Had mine since Dec. 2010. Love it.
so this phone has all these widgets and apps, now does it cost money to even run them and use them? i really want this phone, it would be my first smart phone, but i cant have it running up the bill, anyone help?
I absolutely recommend this phone. I got it November 29, and all of the things you can do with that phone is astonishing! It would make a great Christmas gift!
I have some questions, does this phone get internet? If so, then how fast is it and what would the cost be?
