If you are thinking about upgrading to a smart phone for the first time, the LG Vortex may be a solid fit. Sporting a large, 3.2 inch capacitive touch screen, a comfortable and easy to learn user interface, the LG Vortex is a sexy candybar with much to offer.
The 3.2 inch touch screen, by the way, offers a healthy 320 x 480 pixel resolution, which means you won't be squinting when viewing text or pictures. Add A-GPS, Wi-Fi, a 3.5mm jack input, tethering capability and memory expansion via microSD up to 32GB, and you have a smartly built phone that can make your business days more productive and your social life more fun.

The LG Vortex tries to stake a claim in a congested tier of powerful phones, and is certainly worth a look for those wishing to upgrade to a next-gen device.
