With the newest version of the iPhone on the market, the release of touch-screen capable cell phones from competing providers was inevitable.
I had to get one. Because my service is Verizon, I was offered the LG Dare – a sleek, silver and black device easily mistaken for the iPhone. The Dare offers a great layout with countless features: an MP3 player, a vibrant 3” screen, America’s largest 3G network. The 3.2 mega-pixel camera takes quick, clear snapshots, as well as clean 30-second videos. Although the horizontal keyboard is almost impossible to use when texting, the classic T9 layout is always available and, as one would hope, user-friendly. While the price – a costly $200 – quickly cleans out your wallet, consider it money well spent if you’re looking for something along the lines of Apple’s hottest product.
