The Bottom Line	The LG Venus is a beautiful slider phone with a great feature set, but we would recommend taking the time to get used to the unusual touch-screen controls.	The LG Dare is an innovative and feature-rich handset with several surprises that sets it apart from other touch-screen phones.	The LG Decoy is an excellent phone on its own, but the addition of a built-in Bluetooth headset puts it over the top.	Though we had some minor complaints here and there, the Voyager's sleek design, generous feature set and excellent performance make it the best LG messaging and multimedia phone by far.	The Samsung Glyde is a powerful cell phone with decent performance, but its touch-screen design and controls don't complement its features.
