LG Vortex (Verizon Wireless)

LG Vortex Cell Phone Review

 

LG cut a few corners to make the Vortex a less expensive option. This is obvious in the weaker processor which also results in the inability of the phone to display Adobe Flash websites. It can also be seen in the lack of the flash on the camera and...

Easy to use, nice size, looks nice.

Poor battery life-to be expected tho.
