Why LG Voyager is better than Apple iPhone
By admin on Mar 11, 2008 in LG Voyager
Price: LG Voyager is only $299 with 2 year contract with Verizon, versus $399 or $499 for Apple iPhone.
Display: LG Voyager has 2 screens 240 x 400 external touch screen and internal 400 x 240, versus Apple iPhone’s single display. Voyager’s touch screen even gives you vibration feedback.
Keyboard: LG Voyager has a full keypad for easy typing, versus Apple iPhone’s awkward virtual keyboard
GPS: LG Voyager has a built-in GPS that can give you turn by turn directions and point you to the nearest restaurant of your choice, while Apple iPhone doesn’t have this option…
Data Rate: LG Voyager supports 1xEVDO Rev0, which can download data at maximum theoretical rate of 2.4Mbps, or more practically around 600 – 800Kbps, versus Apple iPhone’s slow EDGE technology
MobileTV: LG Voyager supports mobileTV while Apple iPhone doesn’t have this at all
Removable Memory: LG Voyager has removable MicroSD slot where it can support up to 8GB card, versus Apple iPhone’s fixed memory. With Voyager, you can carry additional card for additional storage.

I agree LG Voyager is much better than the Apple iPhone. It just doesn’t get as much “hype” as iPhone. If only LG Voyager was not exclusive for Verizon, I think it would sell more than the iPhones in volume.

Yea, no comparison to the iphone. User interface means everything and the voyager can only dream of such a thing.

I owned an iphone for 3 months and I sold it just to buy the Voyager. After more than 1 month, I have absolutely no regrets.
The last firmware upgrade really improved the browsing by allowing scrolling before a page is fully loaded-just like the iphone. And zooming in and out of a page is now easy and instant.
Any youtubevideo seen on the iphone can be seen on the Voyager and viewers’ comments-not seen on the iphone-can be seen on the voyager.
Can the iphone record video? Can it send mms? You can’t even receive a call on the old iphone if you are browsing on edge.
Verizon’s service is quantum times better than Att.
The Voyager rules.

UPDATE required. Most of what is said here about iPhone is dated as of mid-JUly and the new release (e.g., GPS, price, etc.)

True. 3G iPhone certainly now has the GPS and the price is lower. However, Voyager came out long time ago. If we are going to do another comparison, it should be 3G iPhone against a new phone – like LG Dare or HTC Touch Diamond.

Frank, glad to hear you like the Voyager. iPhone does have the largest touchscreen.

Although the Voyager is a fairly good phone, it should not be compared to the iPhone, as the iPhone is of a complete, higher category. It does come with a few flaws, but it still surpasses the Voyager. Phone carriers and companies are constantly trying to make an iPhone killer, but with many failed atempts. As of November 21st, the Voyager has long been surpassed with many great phones, but notice that the iPhone is still considered the best phone to date. This is not to say that the iPhone is my favorite phone, but I just wanted to point out that the Voyager is not even close to being an iPhone killer.:)
