And I pretty much a good durable phone that gets good reception. Which of the two would you choose? Only answer from experience. THanks in advance.

I work at Verizon. so which phones you looking at..

By far the best phone on the market is the LGVX4400.. Color, get it now, schedular, alarm clock, u can upload backgrounds, have peoples pics flash across the screen when they call, color caller id display, good battery life (for a color), and probably the best recepting phone out there.

we sellin them for 175 with a 100 mail in rebate. But where youre at it might be 200...... thats with a two year agreement.

But I own the audiovox 9500..... Sweet phone, I have my riding pics and jumping pics as my background :D.. but the battery sucks bad. You can get about 8 -12 hours outta the stock batter.

Oh i got the phones to pop up now.!

The VX10 has the better reception, easier to use, it has the get it now(d/l ringtones and games over the air).

The samsung looks better at night. and can change faceplates. !

Both have similar battery life, both polyphonic ringtones, both 100 with 50 dollar rebate. Both have the same features: alarm clock, schedular, (samsung has 3 games) vx10 has to d/l them for some $$$$$.

Outta those to. I'd go Samsung for looks, LG for reception.

I have Cingular, they said they have had lots of problems with the new Motorola phones (the fancy ones with multi-colored dispays).
All those bells and whistles are nice, but if the phone don't work, i don't care what it can do. I'll stick with my Nokia for a while.

Samsung I330. This is an awesome phone. You should not rule Sprint out as an option. I have had no problems with Sprint.

Exactly.


I know the only good providers around here are Verizon & AT&T. If you go with anything else, you will have very $hitty range outside of Pittsburgh or any major highway.

Well, I get coverage from Lake Michigan to Detroit up to the Machinaw Bridge down to Indianapolis. So I get good coverage with Sprint. Maybe you don't, but here in MI the coverage is pretty good.
