LG VX6100 CDMA Mobile Phone

Date Published: 4/21/06

This slim clamshell phone from Verizon is perfect for feature-hungry users who want to spend too much. Equipped with a 256K internal LCD, the LG VX6100 makes for reliable Internet browsing and has an embedded better-than-average camera with flash, zoom, and a sliding lens cover.

The speakerphone on this unit is commendable and, as is becoming more common, the voice dialing is accomplished through speech-recognition instead of prerecorded names. The phone runs on a lithium-ion battery, which delivers about three hours of talk time and 150 days of standby, and operates over three bands (AMPS800 / CDMA800 / CDMA1900).

Other features for this phone include: 499-contact address book (that holds 5 numbers, 3 e-mail addresses, and 1 picture ID), voice dialing, vibrating alert, voice memo, and multimedia messaging. Unfortunately, there is no infrared port, and the external LCD is grayscale and doesn't display the picture ID. Otherwise, this is a solid phone for the discerning buyer.

If you need a great speakerphone with a camera and Internet browsing, look at the LG VX6100.
