Gizmodo reviews the LG Voyager: “The LG Voyager is a powerful thing, ambitious in that it combines much of what we like about both the iPhone and the BlackBerry into a single compact system. But the LG Voyager has flaws (it’s slightly chunky, the Touchscreen isn’t very responsive) that make it hard for me to give the highest marks, especially with an after-rebate price tag of $300. 

The LG Voyager is compatible with Verizon’s V Cast Mobile TV service—provided it’s available in your area. (When we try to tune in, we get an error saying “No V Cast Mobile TV Signal.”) Chronic text-messagers will be excited about the easy-access messaging; call me old-fashioned but I only wish access to e-mail were as straightforward and integrated.

In the end you have a lot of powerful hardware working towards a not all-together clear objective with the LG Voyager. I like a lot of what I see, and to further the iPhone comparison, it would be nice to see Verizon and LG follow suit and update the LG Voyager software, but I am not sure that’s in the cards. To be worth $300 and the large sums of money you will spend each month on service, this phone needs a smoother touchscreen, a more integrated e-mail system and a much smarter browser.”
