[CTIA 2008] LG Debuts The enV2

By Luke Anderson

I would have to say that LG had one of the more exciting booths at the show this year. I’m not necessarily basing that judgment on what they were offering in terms of phones (though they were good as well), but rather the soft blue lighting, sexy mannequins and music from either a live band or DJ. I ended up spending a good deal of time just hanging out listening to tunes. Of course there was work to be done (if you call playing with phones work, that is) so I eventually got busy with that.

There were two new phones at the LG booth that really caught my attention. First was the enV2, which is an update to the enV. At first glance the phone may seem a bit strange with its over sized keypad and small screen. However, all becomes clear when you open it up to reveal the full QWERTY keyboard and larger LCD on the inside. I actually enjoyed the presence of the larger keys, as they would make dialing a bit easier, and the bright screens made the phone an all-around winner.
