his LG isn’t a slider like the Chocolate, or clamshell like the VX9800 (aka “The V”). This is all candybar, opening up to reveal a sweet QWERTY keyboard and midget stereo speakers.

LG enV (VX9900) review by Infosync “With its distinctive styling and comfortable keyboard, the LG enV (an update to the LG VX9800) might have been poised to give T-Mobile’s Sidekick 3 a run for its money. Unfortunately, the VX9900 small screens coupled with its overall bulkiness give the phone a dated feel, especially when it’s closed, and lacking an interesting or at least intuitive menu system, the phone will have a hard time winning converts from the Sidekick crowd. Though the enV handles video better than most phones we’ve seen, its audio player is obviously geared towards selling tunes rather than playing them, and the Web browser is hidden deep in Verizon’s aging nest of menus. All in all, the enV struck us as a good idea in need of some serious tweaking.”
LG enV (VX9900) review by Cnet “The enV’s 2-megapixel camera is impressive and comes stocked with a wealth of options. You can take pictures in four resolutions (1,600×1,200, 1,280×960, 640×480, 320×240) and choose from four color effects and four white-balance settings. There’s also a 2.5x digital zoom (unusable at the highest resolution), a brightness control, a night mode, a self-timer, and three shutter sounds (plus a silent option). The autofocus is a particularly nifty feature; it helped us to the keep the phone steady and eliminated blurriness when taking our shots. On the downside, you can access the photo-editing options only with the internal display, which is a bit inconvenient for self-portraits.”
LG enV (VX9900) review by PhoneArena “The VX9900 (enV) is a welcome update to the VX9800 (The V). It seems that LG listened to customer feedback and improved upon the phone is almost every aspect, including hardware design and software. The enV has a more stylish look to it and weighs less, while maintaining good quality construction. The internal display is now QVGA and shows images and text with greater quality. The Camera is upgraded to 2MP and takes the best pictures we’ve seen on a LG phone since the VX8000 that was introduced in 2005. They look almost as good as the pictures from the Samsung A990. Call Quality and Reception is also top-notch with no interference or static.”
