LG enV(2) - black (Verizon Wireless) |
3 The enV(2) is slimmer and sexier than the original LG enV, but it can't compare with the Vu's luscious touch screen and trim profile. |
3 The LG enV(2) might be slimmer and smaller than the original LG enV, but the exterior of the phone is just downright ugly. That said, I appreciate its solid construction whereas the LG Vu feels a bit fragile. |
3 I really like the enV(2)'s trim profile, and I actually like the calculator-like look of the front. That said, the Vu's generous touch screen and glossy black shell just can't be beat. |

LG VU - black (AT&T) |
4 If you can call a cell phone sexy, then the Vu fits the bill. For the reasons I mentioned above, it takes this round. |
4 The LG Vu is downright gorgeous. From the large touch screen, to the minimalist design, to the sleek, black casing, I love it all. As I noted above, though, I'm just slightly concerned about its durability. |
4 The LG Vu has an elegant, minimalist look that is amplified by its massive 3-inch touch screen display. |
