Touch Screen Phone Alternative

There are a multitude of touch screen phones available. One of the most popular touch screen phones is the iPhone. While it is sought after by many people, it isn’t very affordable. Others would like an equally capable touch screen phone but at a reasonable price. With this in mind many cell phone companies have put out more affordable touch screen phones. One such phone is the enV Touch from Verizon Wireless. While the phone may be missing some key functions it is still a worthwhile affordable iPhone alternative.

The enV Touch has a unique design. It is a slide phone with two screens but they are both the same size. They are large and can display a whopping 1.6 million colors. This allows the screen to project beautiful images and content will appear very nice looking. There is an alphanumeric key pad displayed on the face screen which can be used for dialing numbers or sending out text messages. The touch screen works well but can be hard to get used to at times. To help with this problem there is an option for a vibration or noise alert. Whenever the phone registers a correct touch on the touch screen it can either vibrate or let out a noise. Inside the flip compartment is the full QWERTY key board. The key board is very spacious and the keys are individually raised and separated. Using the full QWERTY key pad was very comfortable.

The phone features a wide array of impressive features. Unfortunately it lacks Wi-Fi. One such feature is the drawing pad. It allows you to actually doodle a picture on the phones touch screen, which can be saved and sent to people stored on the contacts list. The enV Touch utilizes a USB port which many phone users desperately want on a phone. The USB port makes transferring data to and from the phone very simple and quick. The phone also features a full HTML web browser. Surfing the web is quite simple on the phone but again the touch screens odd functionality may impede some of the users out there.

The camera on this phone takes very nice photos. It features a 3.2 megapixel lens. There are a multitude of image control options such as six different resolutions, five white balance presets, three focusing modes, and much more. One of the more notable features is called Facial Makeover mode which removes all the unsightly marks and blemishes such as pimples from a persons face while taking a picture.

This phone features an amazing call quality. There is little to no interference or static during conversations. Also people on the other line will sound very clear. Similarly the speakerphone works just as well too. The caller will not sound too loud and distorted over the enV’s speaker phone.

The LG enV Touch from Verizon wireless is a good phone. It may be lacking some obvious features and its touch screen can take a while to get accustom to, but the rest of the phones features and great functions more than make up for it. Anyone looking for an affordable phone which ignorable quirks should look no further than this one.
