LG Dare or LG Voyager?

**dabeechman** · July 30th, 2008, 02:19 AM

I have the Dare and my brother has the Voyager. The only place where the Voyager is better is with texting.

The Dare web walks all over the Voyager, the camera is amazing. You have photo editing abilities, and the touch is also more responsive.

I've heard bad things about the Dare, mainly about the touch screen responsiveness, otherwise I'd already have one (I'm due for an upgrade, but I'm holding out for an iPhone once my contract is up). It looks like an awesome phone, but those concerns have me...well concerned.

I'm pretty eager to leave Verizon.

I prefer LG DS9, but whatever floats your boat.

I've had the dare for about 2 weeks now and I love it!

I read a couple of reviews that said the response wasn't very good, but have since read a ton of reviews that say the exact opposite, so I was a little presumptuous there I suppose, though some people say if you have fat fingers (like me) it's not a good choice (though, with fat fingers, any touch screen probably isn't that great).

I've considered the Dare, but will probably hold out for now. My contract is already up with Verizon, but I have no plans on changing service. I've always received good customer service, the only real dead spot I have is at my house, which can suck, but this area is bad for a lot of providers. I just see no reason to change unless they really want to give me a great deal. My phone works fine for what I need. I would never switch to an iPhone unless they change providers.

I ended up getting the Dare and love it.

The only touch screen issues I notice are when browsing online if the link is too small (easy - just zoom in) and texting with the qwerty keyboard (keys too small)... but if you wanted a qwerty keyboard, why didn't you get the Voyager?

I love my Dare. It's going to get me fired cuz I'm not getting any work done now.
I, too have fat fingers so I use a pen for a stylus.

The internet browser is great too, very fast the only bad thing about that is clicking small links, in which case i would recommend getting a stylus, which brings me to my only complaint about the dare.......a stylus is not included which is pretty dumb IMO, since it has a drawing pad application and all there is, is a touchscreen so there is no secondary back up for web browsing. Oh, and it has a 3.2 megapixel camera which kicks a lot of ass. The dare is a very fun phone which i highly recommend, but if you are a text maniac then I might consider the voyager, since the QWERTY pad is great. The touchscreen on both are pretty comparable, but I find the dare to be just a little more responsive.

I got the dare yesterday, after 1 day I'm ready to return it and go back to my trusty RAZR.

I think the browser sucks, I thought having the extra gimmicks would be nice - I'm just one of those that feel a cell phone is just for making calls so I'll probably return it.
