The enV 2 (aka Keybo or VX9100) doesn’t look at all like its prior incarnation. Its smaller, thinner (4” x 2.13” x .65”) and 30 percent lighter. Aside from the cosmetic changes however, the enV 2 is almost identical to the original.

Closed, the face looks a bit strange, with a small rectangular screen at the top which looks squeezed, and the remaining exterior dominated by the keypad. Between the screen and alphanumeric keypad is a dedicated music button, “send”, “end” and “clear” buttons and just above the middle an “okay” button flanked on top and bottom with arrow keys. The black exterior is trimmed in a snazzy faux chrome.

Interestingly, the small external screen does have the benefit of providing a much roomier keypad than its former edition, despite being an overall smaller phone.

The enV2 opens lengthwise to reveal a thoughtful full Qwerty keyboard with small but easy-to-use buttons and a good use of color to distinguish which keys perform additional functions. The internal display is flanked on either side with speakers which, if used in speakerphone mode, produces a surprisingly good quality sound for listening to music.

Other than the fairly dramatic physical makeover, the enV2 retains most of the features of its predecessor the enV. You get a 2MP camera (with the external screen acting as a roomy view finder), Bluetooth, 1000 entry phone book with considerable customizable options, and internal 2.4 inch 240 x 320 pixel display, an MP3 player and video recorder.

Of course, the enV(2) includes all entry level features too, including speakerphone, alarm, calendar and voice recorder.

The enV 2 is an excellent choice for someone who wants very good call quality and enjoys texting, taking pictures and surfing the internet.

I've used this phone for about two years.

Pros: Great keyboard - the keys are spaced out well! It's great for texting. Also, it looks great when you flip it open. Menu, etc. look really good.

Cons: It looks ugly from the outside. The phone can turn on by itself or dial/call someone - that... More

This phone gets heavy use and abuse. Used for flicks, pics (when no better camera is available), bluetooth connectivity, web browsing, note taking, calls, music, text messages (big time), gets heated over engines, frozen in winters, tossed into nap sac pouches, sat on, etc, etc. Call quality is excellent,... More

I originally had the LG Keybo 1 (in red/pink) and just after the 1 year warranty period was up, the screen that opens with the keyboard wouldn't work. I took it back and was told it would be at "least" $170 just to get it fixed. I figured it was cheaper to buy a new phone, so I bought... More
