InfoSync World have published a review of the LG Dare (Verizon Wireless) multimedia touch phone. 'The LG Dare is an all-touch phone, meaning it has no hardware keypad for dialing or typing. Phones that forgo the keypad all rest on one attribute: the responsiveness of their touchscreens. Unfortunately, the LG Dare has some serious issues, and perhaps even some design mistakes, that make the touchscreen very difficult to use. The problem lies in scrolling, a common action on touchscreen phones. On the Apple iPhone, scrolling is a breeze, and it is easy to scroll through long lists by literally jogging with your fingers.
On the LG Dare, when you touch the screen to move a list up or down, the phone usually registers this as a tap, so the moment you let go, you've actually selected an option that you wanted to skip. This made every aspect of the phone more difficult and, for features that had shorter lists, like the address book, it was nearly impossible to access the menu options hidden beyond view. This wasn't a singular flaw, but a design problem that affected our entire experience with the Dare.'
