LG VX-8100
thinkin about switchin 2 the samsung 950...
i have had the 8100 since the begining of october and have loved the phone... the conly complaints i have are that it feels very bulky in my pockets, cant use sounds as ringtones, you cant use the speaker phone closed and the earpiece volume. now i was at a party and i noticed my friend had the samsung counterpart and it seemed WAY thinner... i put it im my pocket and i couldnt even notice it was there. so i was talking to him about it and he said he could use his sounds as ringtones... this pissed me off knowin that i can not... to make matters worse, he said he could use the speaker with the phone closed! now- are there any things better about the 8100 than the samsung 950 that should keep me from switching... thanks 4 your help guys

A few things off the top of my head that are better than the 950 would be the calrity of the front screen, the fact that the front screen goes completely dark on the 950 and you have to hold a button down for several seconds, not just a tap, to get it back on, you can't read text messages on the front screen of the 950. I know theres more, but theres a few.

I fell in love with the a950 at first sight and then the relationship fell apart and we broke up after a month.
I went through three of those stupid phones and they all had their own special problems.
Phone #1: It had a dead pixel in the screen that was very small and only seen on some menus. I felt that I should have a phone that works because of the amount of money I spent on it. I returned it two days later.
Phone #2: Worked well for about three weeks and the cutting in and out became unbearable. I couldn't even use the phone in my house and Verizon has excellent service in Brooklyn, NY.

I had TWO a950s for about a week. Be aware: 1st - voice dialing is horrible. Might be more direct but constantly misses and sends to text instead of dialing. Samsung and Motorola use 3rd party software for voice dial. 2nd - battery lasts about 1 1/2 days with less than an hour of actual talk time. 3rd - Reception slightly better, but in the end, the cons outweighed the pros.
