Pretty Good Phone
Carrier: Boost
The LG Venice has a beautiful screen, takes decent photos, and is easy to use. It could easily compete with more high-end phones and does pretty much the same thing. It is not 4G, but the data speeds on the network (Boost/Sprint) are pretty good. I have three complaints, however:
1. Battery Life. I have to charge it at least 2 times a day. I've been putting it on Airplane mode when not in use to try and save battery, because the biggest drain is the network.
2. RAM. Not enough memory. Takes 30 seconds to load a picture, 30 seconds to call up the dial screen/contacts.. its just kind of slow and laggy.
3. Whenver I turn Wi-Fi off, it pops back on again 30 seconds later. I had to remove all networks, and then it will pop on again randomly, but at least it won't connect to anything if I make it 'forget' a certain network that it had been using. I'm not sure how to completely make Wi-Fi turn off and stay off until I want it back on again.
Overall though, this is a very good phone. I purchased it in January 2013 and its been a good phone eversince. I'd reccomend it for those who want a really good phone but can't afford the Galaxy series.

LG Venice
Carrier: Boost
Overall this phone is great! Takes great photo's and is very easy to operate. The only thing I have against it is the Battery. Even after turning everything off that you just don't haft to have, the battery drains very fast.

The Venice Is a Fantastic Phone
Carrier: Boost
I purchased the Venice a couple of days ago it is a great phone.It does very well against the competiton.Its a boost mobile phone and operates just as good as any paid phones the samsung galaxy,iphone,etc.It has voice recognition that works perfect mistake free.The cost for me was 130.00 at a boost store.The camera takes excellent pics,the speaker is loud,For the money it is well worth it,it stands up to the more expensive phones on the market today.You wont waste your money on this investment.Also boost has improved there customer service base and it is excellent here in Texas.I am a long term customer.Screen is beautiful overall operation gets 5 stars.
