Product Description

 
The LG Chocolate VX8500 is as smooth and sweet as its namesake. Featuring a svelte slider design and a backlit, touch-sensitive keypad, the VX8500 looks practically edible. Bring your music on the road using microSD storage, or snap photos with the 1.3 megapixel integrated camera. Verizon’s VCAST service allows you to download video clips and 3D games anytime you need to kill some time, and VZ Navigator gives you turn-by-turn navigation with audible voice directions to most addresses in the US.

LG Chocolate isn't for this chocoholic and phoneaholic.

Date of Review:  Nov 16, 2008
The Bottom Line: I'm required to put in who the cell phone is best for and wanted to say no one.
Review: When we changed phone services I bought a Blackberry Curve 8330 and my husband got a free LG Chocolate VX8500. For a variety of reasons I have had, unfortunately, to use his cell phone. Why do I say unfortunately?

LG VX8500 Chocolate: As Its Moniker Would Suggest This Phone Is Bad For You

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: Chocolate is bad for you. This one may not rot your teeth, but it won't work as a phone either.
Review: My fiance and I have been Verizon customers for years. We're both happy with the service and enjoy taking advantage of the "new every two" program. How could two tech geeks resist the prospect of a new handheld gadget every two years? Often we put a...

The LG Chocolate is a Girl's Best Friend

Date of Review:  Aug 29, 2008
The Bottom Line: I recommend this phone because I have had no problems with it, and love it!
Review: I am not going to lie to you, the ONLY reason I picked the LG VX8500 Chocolate phone in the first place was simply because I liked the way it looked-I did no research on it, I didn't know anything about what it's capabilities were, I simply thought...
