Rip off of the RAZR, KRZR, and BLADE.

This phone copied the KRZR and RAZR. Also copies the Samsung BLADE with the black styling and keypad. Won't be nearly as good as either phone!!!! 😈

Actually, the samsung blade copied the razr, and the krazr copied the VX8600, which came out first overseas as the LG KG810. They all copied each other. The difference will be features, performance, and which phones sell better.

It is nice to know there are people on here who don't just make random unfounded claims and actually know what they are talking about. 😁

so now every thin phone that comes out is a rip off of the razr or krzr. im sorry thats ridiculous to say. for your info the LG 8600 came out before the krzr overseas. But the razr is the phone that started the trend. 😉

All of the phones that are thin and wide and kind of the same size as the RAZR copied the RAZR shape like the Sanyo katana.

the sanyo katana copied the razr the most in my opinion, only difference is that it is extremely ugly to me. The samsung blade looks nice though.

At least LG didn't name the phone after something sharp, a la RAZR, BLADE, KATANA. I would have had to draw the line there.

Spare me your crap.

Everything is what you call a "rip off" of someone else.

Have Toyota, Honda, GM, BMW, etc all ripped off Ford?

Is the Whopper a rip off of the Big Mac?

ZOMG every burger place ripped of Hamburg, Germany cuz they invented it! Dang posers!

Get real and don't post unless you have something useful to say.

Of course the Whooper is a rip off of the Big Mac. What a ridiculous question.

And I'm glad someone brought up the A900 for once. I think LG brought some SCH-V740s (the Korean A900) to the lab and used it as the basis for their KV-2300 (the Korean KG810, VX-8600). Samsung should be offended more than anyone else.

Of course they all copied eachother, with technology you follow the trends if you are a company, quit talking about it guys, of course everyone "copied" eachother. Dumb conversation.

Woo hoo. Someone else that understands how the business world works.

Don't count on the rampant fanboy camps to stop anytime soon though.
