Sprint offers an updated music phone with the slim LG Muziq. Does it hit the high notes, or fall flat? With Video Review.

AD article continues below...

The LG Muziq is undoubtedly the second generation Fusic, albeit with a slightly different name. While the Muziq does many of the same things as its predecessor, the hardware is different enough to set it apart. But does updated hardware mean it is a better phone? Let's find out.

Can U use the voice recorder to make ringtones with this phone?

I know you could do this with the Fusic as well as the crappy LG-PM325. Also, this was stated here: http://us.lge.com/products/model/detail/mobil e%20phones_select%20by%20carrier_sprint_MUZIQ .jhtml.

Does it still...

Have the same lame ringers that the first one has? Ive had my fusic since it was released and I have only had TWO problems

1. The ringers on the phone are very "abnormal" lol

2. The phone catches my facial hair (even a 5 o'clock shadow) and boy does that hurt

StarryNight

The ringers are totally different, but just as unique! 😁

As far as the facial hair thing goes, seeing as i'm female, I can't really answer that question for you...

LG's problem....

IS that they don't put their money where their mouth is.

IF they wanted to create a phone called MUZIQ, then they needed to have worked real hard on the MP3 player portion of the phone. However, the MP3 player on this phone seems to be the same as the MP3 player on the FUSIC.

That means it is a mediocre player that is not much different than any phone with an MP3 player built in.

The name MUZIQ is a bad exercise in product marketing. And for some reason, it looks more like the previous generation of Chocolate, than FUSIC.

StarryNight

Just out of curiousity, what improvements should they have made to the MP3 player? I have a Fusic currently, and the MP3 player is pretty perfect (atleast, I haven't been able to come up with how to make it better), and the Muziq does improve in that ...

That's not LG's problem, that's Sprint's problem. LG's proprietary music player is pretty righteous, but Sprint disables it and makes you use their player. It's certainly not a completely moronic move; they did it that way so it could sync to the Sp...

I'm beginning to wonder if...

...the Lincoln Tunnel has repeaters throughout.

No?

Yes?

ericzeman

Yes, there are repeaters in the LT. Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T all have strong signal coverage down there.

How about....

....a comparo between this and the new chocolate?

Also, wanted to mention that even though most phones have a 2.5mm headphone jack, one can use a 2.5mm to 3.5mm converter to use regular headphones. I do on my vx8550 and it sounds awesome.
