The good: The LG VX3450 has an adorably curvy and compact design with easy to use controls and great audio quality. It has a speakerphone, a voice-command feature, and an external screen for caller ID.
The bad: The LG VX3450 has rather dull internal display, and personalization options are limited.

Weak battery power
by rockjacque on May 29, 2007
Pros: good call clarity and easy to use
Cons: BUT battery would not maintain charge for 24 hours; replaced with new battery but same results
Summary: As a result, we back to Verizon and changed to a Motorola V325i which is the best phone I've owned over the years.

Compact and Cute
by phone_loser on April 28, 2008
Pros: This phone is comfortable to handle and easy to use. Speaker works well and is easy to find.
Cons: Lost the back of the phone answering it on a ski hill. So I have now taped the back. Maybe you could use a case. Also I can't get it to vibrate without ringing.
Summary: After I lost the back of the phone Verizon could not replace it. Instead they gave me an extra-life batter and cover at half price. The cover is slightly larger ...
Summary: After I lost the back of the phone Verizon could not replace it. Instead they gave me an extra-life batter and cover at half price. The cover is slightly larger but the battery is amazing. Good for 2 weeks or more. The first one was good but this is great.

Sorry about the mistake in my review. This phone does have a vibrate only feature. I just figured out how to find it. (* key) -
Great phone for tweens
by pinkmamasparkle on December 14, 2007
Pros: Security features with room to grow
Cons: Disappointing options for blocking text messages

Summary: Great phone for a 12 year old who is gaining more independence! I can limit incoming/outgoing phone calls to only the numbers listed on the contact list. Unfortunately, restricting text messages is limited to block all/allow all. This disappointed me because I would like to have the option to limit text messages to the contact list only, as well.
We chose this phone over the Firefly Glowphone because the vx3450 allows for the ability to add or remove restrictions as necessary (unlike the Glowphone). So as my child gets older I can add in privileges like text messages when I feel the child is ready for it.
The vx3450 also has a "Chaperone" feature, which is an extra-cost tracking service that alerts my cell phone when the vx3450 is taken outside of a pre-determined geographic area. I don't see this as an everyday necessity for my family, but I would possibly use it on vacation or when my child is at summer camp.
Small, lightweight, flexible security options: Overall, great phone for the price!
