LG's VX8360 for Verizon in gory detail

by Chris Ziegler posted Jan 6th 2009 at 11:12AM

So Verizon's still trying to clear out VX8350 inventory, but as soon as it does, we'll all start to see this little gem show up. The VX8360's been rumored for some time now -- heck, it was originally pegged for an October '08 launch -- but there's really no need to get too worked up about the delay, seeing how your $50 on contract after rebate is only going to land you a 1.3-megapixel camera and a positively forgettable design. EV-DO and VZ Navigator support are nice, but frankly, it's starting to get hard to find a Verizon phone that doesn't support nav, so call us when this is free on contract, guys!

I noticed the pricing on the phone says 99.99 w/ a 2yr & the upgrade price is 119.99. Is VZ charging $20 more for phones to upgrading/existing customers? This is shady...even w/ their new every 2.

INPulse is Prepay, not Upgrade. Typically Upgrade 2-year pricing is the same as New 2-year pricing, or close to, depending on what kind of pricing the store has.

Looks like a nice phone to me. free for people whoa re ne2 eligable. looks to have a good keyboard and screen, nice speaker on the front, good form factor. reminds me of the e815 without the antennae. if it gets good reception/battery life it will be a winner.
