Anyone have an LG enV with internet?

[MickeysMommy]

I have one of the older enV phones and was wondering how the internet/browser is on the newer ones. I would not be doing a lot of surfing - just usually The Dis.

Thoughts? Pros / Cons?

We had enVs for a really long time and LOVED them! We kept them much longer than the original contract. We finally had to replace them because all of our batteries were dying and it was cheaper to get new phones than replace the battery.

We got the enV3. Hate it. It seems to drop calls more often and I regularly get an "insufficient memory" error when trying to surf. Also- there's a known problem with the phone shutting off arbitrarily (just great when you use the phone as an alarm clock!) Having said that, the phone functions well enough, I suppose. Most calls go through and stay connected, I can just try the internet again... but we've seen a HUGE difference between the enV and the enV3. We're counting the days until we can get new phones and get rid of these.

I have an enV3 & don't have a problem with it dropping calls or anything.

I go on the web to check my e-mail & Facebook usually. I don't do that everyday, but often enough. I don't have a problem checking or sending e-mails & can work through FB apps find too.

The screen isn't huge, so I think I will get a phone with a bigger screen next time, but other than that, it's fine for me.

Have the EnV3 now...no problems with dropping calls. I have internet capability but don't use it to surf very much. The screen is just too darn small.
But, the phone does tend to turn itself off on occasion. Thought it was just me, but it would seem to be a recurring issue with these phones.

Many have had major problems with this so they redesigned the battery, that was the issue. They replaced mine with a ENV3 that came with a new battery in June. No problems with this one! If you call, they will send you the replacement phone and battery(mine was under the 1 yr warranty). I imagine the ones selling now or the redesign, though I have no real knowledge of that.

This has happened to me on occasion, but I'd say it's been less than a dozen times over the last year since I've had it. It happened to my DD's quite often so they had the batteries replaced. They are crazy texters & it seemed to happen after they texted a lot.
