LG Octane Review - Watch CNET's Video Review

"Finally, the phone is a little big overall and could have benefited from an eighth-inch trimming here and there..."

"At first, I thought maybe my wife didn't know what she was doing, or maybe was just complaining about the phone because the LGVX8300 has such good voice quality..."

LG Octane Review
Compact and stylish Larger external display than the enV3...Call quality is bad on both ends QWERTY keyboard is all one...Included in the retail package is the LG Octane phone, 950mAh battery, wall charger with detachable microUSB cable, and user guides...Those of you who are familiar with the enV series...
