So, it’s been years and years and years, and now I’m finally getting my cellphone! You don’t even know how great it feels to wait like four years and finally get what you’ve wanted. In case you didn’t know, it feels great! My family’s already set up with Verizon, so yippee me, I get to pick from a Glyde, Venus, Juke, Chocolate, G-Zone, enV, LG Decoy, Voyager, Alias, and all the other nameless phones that either sound like some warrior, FBI term or random gibberish code: LG Darkmage G-force type s5 z65-suw8. Trust me.
For example, the Samsung SCH-u620. Or the LG VX8350. I mean, do they give their phones such complicated names just to confuse us? Does it lend to the techy feel of the phone? We may never know.
But all of these questions, all of these outbursts of anticipation and excitement are quelled. Yes, quelled. I have narrowed down my searches to the enV and the Alias. Partly because I probably won’t be able to afford much else, and partly because I really want a nice new phone. The problem is that I happen to really love the overall appearance of the enV, I just love how the Alias is more versatile in that it can be held in two ways. Another main factor is the price. The enV2 is $50 more than the Alias for quality. It’s not like I’ll be needing that since I probably won’t be using V cast, but still, I just like the enV better. Then just get the enV already! You’re probably yelling at my dumbness. Well, yeah, I can, but I just want a unique phone. Well, both phones are in ther own ways, I guess. First things first, my parents keep telling me that I shouldn’t spend $200 on a cell. But why not? They say they got their for around 150, but then, theirs are just basics. The point of new, modern phones are simply to look new and modern, no? I mean, what’s the point in having those plain old Motorolla Motorazor’s that just look the smae as they did 10 years ago? An that weird G’zone… ugh, disgusting if you ask me.

The job of the consumer is to sit back and just let the phone companies amaze you with their new, inventive phones. Our job is to marvel. I mean, take a look at the Juke. From a far off glance, it looks more like a fun-size candy bar than an actual phone.
Back to my main question…which phone should I buy? You tell me!

Dont use it if u hate it ☺
shut up ilan !
Haha, harsh, Adam. But yeah, it’s awesome.
Also, which one should I buy? I have enough money to buy either… I was also looking at Venus and um… voyager. But voyager looks like a dude phone.
ginluca has a voyager, get the alias my dream phone
lol. Bella wants the Alias or Env2. I have my mind set on the env2, if only I knew whic color I should get!
Jello, get the Alias so I can have the env2.
Yeah, it’s like they expect you to remember that.
I can imagine a guy going: ‘Hey can I have a: LG VXC2970527
It seems like they like using X and V a lot. =3

Gianluca? Eww don’t even mention him here! Any way, he doesn’t deserve a voyager. ^^
I know!!
Nice pics. Should have more of the Alias, though.
Yo,
I am having the same problem. I am probably going to get the enV2. it is about $150.00 but it is better than the Alias even thought that can switch two ways. Here, my desision was made after i looked at this youtube. It is called,” Alias vs. enV2. it tells you everything you have to know. Good Luck man

ALIAS ROX!!!
Thanks to everyone for your advice… haha my sister bought the enV2 and my other sister bought the Alias. So guess what I bought… you’ll never guess!
Oh and to Mike, thanks for the helpful video.
ENV2. My friend hasthe EnV and its awesome except that the screen is wayyyyy to small but now they fixed it. Plz visit my blog, its http://www.crazyflyingmonkeys.wordpress.com. Thx.
whatever you do decide to do, dont get the juke. the software is slow and texting is nearly impossible. the keys are tiny. the only good thing is that it deletes you inbox in like two seconds no matter how many messages there are. i just bought the alias, it hasnt even came in the mail yet. im really excited. my mother has the enV2, she likes it a lot and i’ve used it a couple times, its a pretty cool phone, but the buttons are a bit difficult to press quickly.
Hey… I have the alias… I just had to buy a new one though because the phone charger port did something gay or something… But… I luv the alias. It is PERFECT size.. The voyager and the env2 are WAY to big… For those girls who wear those little short shorts… The alias will fit perfect but the env2 will stick out of your pocket. My friend has the env2 and I don’t really like it.
Sorry I haven’t been on in too long. But yeah, the enV2 is kind of weird. O:
I totally agree. I saw the Juke in the Verizon store. It’s just sooo tiny. I was amazed. I mean, it looked too small to function properly. Anyway, my sister bought the enV2, it’s pretty nice, the keys are a bit chunky and sometime hard to press. And I bought the Glyde, which has even smaller keys. Oh well. ;D
