It is still a very nice phone. I dropped this thing many times and it survived. Very nice lock key, it can lock your keys it is real nice. <br /><br />The screen failed on this device. Two replacement models. The first one since it came out and 1 day later the screen was messed up because i was going to my friends house on my cycle and it started raining. I dried it and even sadly yelled at it lol t0 have it to start working, but sadly the screen failed. It all worked if you knew what you were doing when you navigated it. The screen still worked just had lines on almost all of the parts of the screen. Lil parts displayed but not enough to see what I'd be doing. I got the new replacement phone and i dropped it and it broke on the screen. I had the first chocolate for a tiny longer and its screen got broken. I honestly can say the 8550 has more features including a cool scroll wheel then what the "brick of chocolate 8500" had lol. Yes of the 8500 being a brick, it was sure durable and never broke apart from a drop. Chocolate is still a good phone by all means, and i may go for the chocolate touch. I have the intensity at the moment</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=35839#review35839 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=35839#review35839 Mon, 07 Dec 2009 16:28:55 GMT <p><i>rosedarling submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I've had this phone for over a year now, and have very few problems with it. The slider is still in excellent condition, and operates just as did when I first got it. I've had no problems with the soft keys. However, the chrome around the edge is almost completely worn off, and the keys are worn down to the metal in places (expected due to usage).<br />The only severe problem I've had with it is that sometimes, it shuts off for no reason, and when I turn it back on, it doesn't say I've missed any calls, even if I have.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=35698#review35698 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=35698#review35698 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:31:11 GMT <p><i>rocket23 submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>grat phoone for the money <br /><br /><br />pros good battery good camera music player<br />loud speaker cool sliding action<br /><br />cons blacks out and goes crazy sometimes</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=34451#review34451 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=34451#review34451 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 01:05:45 GMT <p><i>zeeker123 submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I've had this phone for a year now, not by choice.. i bought this phone thinking it was the best phone in the world, little did i know it sucked.. i never drop my phone and it has scratches and dents and the chrome on the side is peeling off and the left touch button completely wore away and now you can see the inside of the phone.. :\<br />It freezes all the time, the charger flap broke off one day just randomly.. the battery doesn't last very long at all 12 hrs at the max..

People would always tell me stuff like "hey, nice phone" and "cool phone man" and other garbage like that, and I was pretty proud of my little chocolate. <br />Anyway, the screen fingerprints like nothing else, which seems to bother people, and it scratches with very little abuse. You also can't read it if you're in the sun. The slide is solid and durable, but the external volume keys broke after a little over a year of gentle use (by gentle use, I mean I don't throw the thing across the room like everyone else seems to do). <br />The battery just cuts out whenever it wants to now. It isn't a result of jostling or heat or cold. It just stops, even under full charge.<br />But the biggest problem by a mile is the heat-sensitive keys. If the phone is in your pocket and the front gets close to skin temperature, when you try to use one of the (so called touch) buttons, they don't work until you bring the heat back down so the temperature change is noticeable.<br />Overall, it's alright. It's good enough for making calls. Texting is a little annoying, but, as humans, we can adapt to that. The camera is surprisingly good, or at least better than expected.<br /><br />I think I'm gonna go get a Dare.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=32058#review32058 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=32058#review32058 Thu, 04 Dec 2008 03:44:14 GMT <p><i>mike4mus6 submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>PROS<br /><br />Great quality build<br />Sound quality excellent<br />Music player is superb<br /><br />CONS<br />the touch buttons.. not good at it<br /> <br /><br />i liked this phone from the start, but almost took it back for the touch buttons that bothered me so much.. After getting used to it though I deal with it. I am glad I did as the music player is what i use the most. hooked up with good ear phones or a blue tooth stereo headset.. I was amazed at the quality and the ability to use the Micro SD cards. It is now my phone/music player. Battery life is good and have no complaints about this either. I see the 2.5 jack is a problem.. but that can be fixed with adapter as can a screen protector and form fitting case can for the protection of the phone itself..

It's been almost a year, and it is a very solid good phone! It took me a little while to start using all the benefits this phone has to offer, from downloading ringtones &amp; pix to syncing music into it for an mp3 player to using it for email. Call quality and recept are great. Sending/rec'ing tx/pix/vid msgs are good.The mp3 player has really good sound,with/without ear buds.Camera takes good pix, if you want 8mp get a digital camera!There are setting for the wheel and touch sensors. Slider is very sturdy. Batt life is good-i usually get 1-1/2 days and thats with using email/txing/calls. Phone is compact to fit in your pocket.<br /><br />**CONS**<br />-the print for my emails is a little hard to read cuz the screen is small<br />-finger/face prints get on the screen when using the phone<br />-speaker phone isnt that great; use a bluetooth instead-i have a moto H500 and it works well with the phone.<br /><br />Overall this phone really is a good phone. Idk what other people are complaining about that they went thru so many phones. The"word" for txing has good prediction even in the email. <br />I really love my c2 phones and my daughter loves her too!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30779#review30779 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30779#review30779 Sun, 07 Sep 2008 03:03:09 GMT <p><i>baseball000 submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Alright so i've had this phone for about 7 months now and i'm pleased to say that it has been great!

It looked sharp and was an upgrade from my original LG White Chocolate. I hated this phone after only a few days. The touchscreen keys are improved from the first generation but the pinwheel is terrible. It chooses buttons you didn't pick and randomly goes back to the beginning screen and you have to start all over again. Switching to speaker is also an pain. None of my music from my memory card would play on this chocolate even though my other phone was a chocolate.

It is a very nice looking phone and the slider phones are my favorite. However what in the world what LG thinking?<br />I drop calls constantly, when I receive or make a call, the silly touch navigation on the front, switches screens on me, the speaker activates just when I put the phone to my ear. I have locked the touch feature and it still does it. My old phone the Motorola Rizr z3 was the best phone I ever had and believe me I have had alot of phones. <br />The only good thing I can say about the vx 8550 is the screens are vibrant and it looks nice.<br /><br />Pros: UH OK the phone looks nice<br /><br />Cons: touch front options are way to touchy even when set to LOW.<br /> Pictures are terrible!<br /> Drops call constantly!<br /> Can't turn my music into ringtones.<br /> Signal strength is terrible.<br /> there are too many cons for me!!!<br /><br />I will be going back to Verizon and switching this phone for a totally different model.<br />All I require is a simple music player, camera, and be able to make or receive a call without it constantly being dropped.<br /><br />Sorry but this phone was a NO GO for me!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30444#review30444 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30444#review30444 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 07:14:14 GMT <p><i>Thelastholdout submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Same glitz, a little updated, same piece of garbage Chocolate. Sure, it has features, and the kiddies will like it, much like its predecessor, the first Chocolate, but it's not different enough for me to count it as a different phone from the original Chocolate, and it has the same reliability issues. <br /><br />See my review for the original Chocolate, and you'll get the idea. Stylish (to some), some nice features, but if you get one that actually WORKS for a year or more then God is smiling down on you. <br /><br />Again, for those too lazy to see my other review for the Chocolate, I work for VZW's warranty department. I have gotten at least one call on a Chocolate every day I've been keeping track so far, and at least half of them are refurbished (meaning they should've theoretically been fixed. And God knows the guys at the warehouse do try, but asking them to fix a Chocolate is like giving a guy a BB gun and telling him to kill Godzilla. It just won't happen, as good as they are.)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30251#review30251 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30251#review30251 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 15:57:10 GMT <p><i>Steev submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>0</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This, my 3rd Chocolate in trying to get a decent one, is a "A Nightmare on Phone Street". The only improvement seems to be that some touch buttons have been replaced with click buttons, which helps. But it still has the same problem that the originals had. When I get an incoming call and I'm talking, it often (but not always) goes to some update entry screen that DEMANDS that I either "Create new" or "Update existing". It does this even though the caller is in my phonebook! And it beeps incessantly until you deal with the question on the screen. It does this also when I'm listening to voicemails, and it won't let me press 7 to erase or ANYTHING until I get rid of the beeping screen. Sure, you can clear it, you can go through the update procedure, etc. But I think this is just a ploy by LG/Verizon to get you to use up more of your minutes answering a pointless question. Verizon's answer? They give me another Choco-loser with the same problem. I am seriously considering the $130 buy-out to dump Verizon, even though I've been with them since they began as GTE Mobilenet. <br />Blow up this phone!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30247#review30247 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30247#review30247 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 09:11:22 GMT <p><i>goexpertgo submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>0</b> (out of 5)</p><p>If you're ready for a new phone every month, go ahead and purchase this phone.<br /><br />I am currently on my 7th chocolate in the past 5 months.<br />At first was my own fault, i considered it a strong phone, bad idea, and let it drop and fall out of my pocket.<br />it scratched easily and the charger port broke.<br />i was on vacation in san diego and i went to a verizon store to purchase a new one.<br />after rudely being lectured on how to take care of my phone, the lady behind the desk ordered me a new phone. her excuse for not giving me a new one then an there? the color was out of stock and they could not give me a different color.<br />i was disgustingly annoyed when i returned home only to find that they had given me a dark blue phone when i had a light blue battery.<br />strike one.<br /><br />after that it was phone after phone after phone.<br />the people in the verizon store in my my town became familiar with my face.<br />the past three phones i didnt have for over two months, they malfunctioned and broke.<br />i've had them all replaced for free due to malfuctions except for one which was broken internally due to a friend sitting on it, which was replaced to 50 dollars.<br /><br />I recently got a new phone earlier today, only to find that it will not charge.<br />the phone before i had to push and tug on the cord for it to charge and now this phone simply refuses to charge.<br />the phone was given to me broken as well.<br />while driving away i noticed that the side lock button was broken. i was late for something so i ignored it, its not too important to me.<br />i got home and charged it, once again pushing and tugging on the cord.<br />i took it out and a few hours later wanted to charge it before going to bed and it just wont charge.<br />i'm disgusted and fed up with this phone and will be paying another visit to verizon tomarrow.<br /><br />they told me that the chocolate is generally a good phone,<br />ive heard different.<br />and ive experienced worse.<br /><br />this phone is horrible!<br />think twice before you buy it.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30037#review30037 https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=1213&r=30037#review30037 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 05:35:55 GMT <p><i>musicizlife submitted this review of the LG VX-8550 Chocolate:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Okay i traded my env in for this phone cuz my friend said it was good.

(It's annoying when deleting characters in a text, and having it vibrate every single letter/number.)<br />- Sleek design, and nice display choices.<br />- Slider is nice, never had problems with it.<br /><br />cons;<br />- Camera quality isn't that great, color-wise. Even after adjusting options.<br />- Video can be adjusted from 30 seconds, to one hour, which is nice, although the quality isn't that great.<br />- Smudgy screen.<br />- Poor, poor battery life. Even after charging all night, it only lasts from 12 pm to 10 pm before it starts showing one bar/blinking, although sometimes I'm lucky and it lasts for a while.<br /><br /><br />:) overall, very great phone regardless the harsh reviews.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=1213
