LG InfoComm PHON LGVX5600 CDMA VERIZON 1 M

Overall, this is a fairly decent basic phone. The battery life is pretty good (although more on this below) and the audio quality is reasonably near as well - nice and loud if you need or need it to be. The ringtones are special and generally bad, but I don`t care much about that. And there aren`t many bells and whistles. Still, if you`re looking for a ring that will make good quality calls that you won`t get to charge often, this phone isn`t a bad choice.

Except for the fact that the camera button on the exterior of the call is very sensitive. If it`s "held down," even when the telephone is closed, the camera is activated. If it is so "held down" further, the call starts taking pictures. The big problem is that it`s far to light for the push to be inadvertently activated while the call is in your pocket. Sometimes you can even hear it taking pictures as it sits in your bag or bag. You then end up with hundreds of pictures of the dark interior of your pocket. If you have pictures that you worry about, this is really annoying as this can quickly fill up the store and you possess to erase all of the mistake pictures (not to hard if you "Check all" when deleting and then unselect those that you need to keep - assuming you don`t take many pics that you need to keep). And this can`t be beneficial for the battery life if the camera keeps flipping on.

This is a pretty silly design flaw. I`m not sure why one can`t disable the camera, or at least handicap the camera when the ring is closed (and trust me, I`ve searched all over the web for a way to do this). If you believe that this would annoy you, then don`t get this sound as it will unquestionably happen. Perhaps you could get some kind of face that makes the camera button less prone to being triggered, but I don`t need a camera case, I only need a mere little phone that I can put in my pocket that won`t make a portfolio of pictures of said pocket.
