This Shiny Beast is the Best Phone on the Market

by sdeinhorn , Aug 06 '07
Pros: Sexy looking phone, sturdy construction, and exceptional performance.
Cons: Battery life could be better, fingerprint magnet.
In Europe and Asia, LG markets their new line of phones as “the Shine,” but their new phone to hit Verizon Wireless is mundanely called merely the “LG 8700.” Despite the lack of a sexy name, this little phone is one of the sleekest, ...

A nice looking practical phone with a good camera

by hiras , Aug 29 '07
Pros: Nice look, good camera, feels like a phone, not a toy.
Cons: Volume levels, battery life,gets hot, placement of charger socket.
I purchased this phone a couple of months ago as a replacement for my LG VX9800, after problems with the phone abruptly shutting down after a few minutes of conversation. For the most part I liked the VX9800, mainly for its larger screens and little ...

LG VX8700 - Sharp Phone. But why so Many Silly Toys?

by KAR120C Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Mar 19 '08
Pros: Quality build, nice looks, large bright screen. Fair to good sound quality.
Cons: Too many ineffective and inefficient toys. No cradle recharger, limited Bluetooth data transfer.
I use a cell phone to talk business related calls which roll over from a primary office number. To me I need a phone which offers ease of use, clear calling and durability. Unfortunately, the vast majority of cell phones currently offered are less phone ...

The RAZR Upgraded: LG Makes A Winner

by thepavshow55 , Jun 19 '08
Pros: Sleek and stylish, along with very durable for its size
Cons: Average features, average battery life, and average service with a possibly high price tag
I ended up with the LG VX-8700 after going through a horrific experience with several Motorola RAZR phones. After going through three of them with little support from Verizon, I was a little hesitant to buy another slim flip phone. This LG, however, ...

Sleek and Stylish

by subarufiend , Mar 21 '08
Pros: Beautiful screen, sleek, stylish, lots of features
Cons: a little heavy
I love this phone, it's got all the features I wanted, from the camera, to music playing ability to bluetooth. There's a handy calendar in the menu and Verizon makes it easy to download music with Vcast. This phone is by no means a phone for someone that ...

Pros: Sleek, stylish, thin, light weight
Cons: Shuts off on it's own occasionally, bad camera, weird plug in for the charger
I have had my 8700 for a year now and for the most part enjoy it. This is the second LG I have had and I have been pretty happy with both. It is sleek, stylish and fits in my pocket without too much bulk. There are a few complaints though. I carry my ...

So far ,sooo good

by rreview , Oct 21 '07
Pros: style, size, camera, metal cover
Cons: documentation, flimsy port cover
Day Two comments: I've been waiting for some time to upgrade but didn't hesitate when I saw this. My old Plastic one was really showing it's age, and I'm glad now that I didn''t get a slider style as it sounds like they're trouble. It's a good size and ...

LG-VX-8700 is a darn good phone, with one exception.  It was easy to use.  Low battery usage compared to similar models.  However, it has a high rate of Bluetooth failures. I've gone through 3 of them in seven months.  They each ...
