To anyone who is thinking about purchasing the 8600 DON'T save your funds and buy the LG 4500.

8600 although cute in size is a dud. the phone ringer is much lower due to the speakerphone being inside the clam instead of located on the exterior. The phone continuoulsy drops calls and it's a piece of junk.

So glad i moved on!

Good for you. I hate this phone, too. Audiovox hasn't made a good phone since the 9155, IMO. That one was built by Toshiba, and the rest by Curitel.

I can still dial and people can call me but no display at all but blue light. After only a bit of use the buttons would not work without you pressing really hard or when txt'ing you would miss keys. And simple thing's like no games on phone, only online live games you pay for with internet access. Sa...
