CNET Editors' review - LG Dare (Verizon Wireless)
Hide

Excellent

8.3

out of 10
CNET Editor's rating: 8.3 out of 10
Reviewed by Nicole Lee
Review date: 6/27/08
Release date: 6/26/08

The good: The LG Dare has an intuitive touch-screen interface, an advanced 3.2-megapixel camera, a full HTML browser, EV-DO Rev. A, and plenty of other powerful features. It also has excellent call quality.

The bad: The LG Dare's touch interface has a slight learning curve, and we weren't too pleased with the handwriting interface. Also, the Web browsing experience was quite disappointing.

The bottom line: The LG Dare is an innovative and feature-rich handset with several surprises that sets it apart from other touch-screen phones.
