If you’re on the move a lot and need the power of hands-free operation, the LG VX4650 is right up your alley. This handset offers speaker-independent voice recognition, which allows any user to dial a number by speaking the name of a contact from a phone book or by speaking the digits of a phone number. When this voice technology is used with the two-way speakerphone and the prominent speaker, which lets you talk when the clamshell is open or closed, the VX4650 allows for truly hands-free operation.
Design
The phone features a traditional clamshell design with a large, 128 x 128 TFT color display with 65,000 colors, as well as a 96 x 64 monochrome supplementary display on the front cover. Most of the phone’s features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset’s control pad. The top right side of the unit houses an antenna, and the USB-capable data and charging port is housed on the unit’s bottom edge. There’s a standard jack to accept universal hands-free headsets, as well as one-touch buttons for volume and speakerphone functions.
Calling Features
Robust calling features are at the heart of the LG VX4650. Speaker-independent voice recognition allows you to make calls and access other essential features, all without ever touching the device. Simply place the phone in driving mode, and voice commands for contacts, digit dialing, redial, voice mail, driving, schedule, and time are all made available–you can control all of the phone’s basic functions with the sound of your voice. The VX4650’s built-in address book can store up to 500 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers and e-mail addresses. The phone comes with built-in ringers that can be associated with specific callers so you can easily identify who’s calling you. The built-in two-way speakerphone makes it easy for you and others in the car to talk hands-free, and the phone’s GPS location technology pinpoints your exact location when you dial 911.
Messaging, Internet, and Tools
The VX4650 covers the messaging basics with support for sending and receiving text, graphics, and sound via messages. Getting on the Internet anywhere is easy with the VX4650, as well. Verizon’s optional Mobile Web package allows you to read and send e-mails, exchange instant messages, and view your favorite Web content on your phone. You can check your e-mail, trade stocks online, compare prices while shopping, access flight information, get movie listings, and find directions to the theater.
Verizon’s Get It Now wireless download service is also fully compatible with the VX4650. This pay-per-download service features application downloads, games, and productivity tools. You can also personalize your handset with ringtone downloads using the Get It Now service.
The VX4650 ships with a calendar, an alarm clock, and a calculator, so you’ll never be without crucial tools on the go.
Imaging and Entertainment
The phone features customizable screen graphics so you can make your phone reflect your personality. Games and other applications are available via the Get It Now service.
