The LG Chocolate has a sharp design; satisfying overall performance; and a multimedia-rich feature set that includes Bluetooth, a digital music player, and a megapixel camera with admirable photo quality.
The LG Chocolates unique touch pad and controls entail a steep learning curve, and the phone suffers from poor streaming video quality and low talk-time battery life. The lack of a speakerphone is disappointing.
Though the LG Chocolate is beautifully designed and offers a respectable mix of features and performance, it doesnt quite live up to the hype. See all products in the LG Chocolate series

TouchSensitive keys are over sensitive and it's easy to press one by mistake, The Numeric Keypad buttons are very small and slippery, Lack of Speakerphone, Shiny Black Plastic casing is a magnet for fingerprints, Not all Bluetooth Profiles are supported, Camera quality is not as good as other phones.
It is our opinion that the LG VX8500 Chocolate is a nice quality phone that is designed and targeted at younger users in their teens to mid 20's that are not looking to spend a lot of money. If you have the cash, the Samsung A990 or LG VX8300 is a muc...
Abstract: With their uncharacteristically intensive marketing campaign over the last month focusing on this phone alone, its readily apparent that Verizon has high hopes their VX8500 "Chocolate" slider is ready to take the torch from Motorolas original V3 RAZR...
Abstract: Yes, the LG VX8500 "Chocolate" is being dubbed a music phone and its cool exterior slightly resembles the U2-inspired iPod, but this cell phone isn’t just about the music. It’s got decent battery life, impressive audio quality, expandable memo...
