One of the most notable fallouts of the Apple iPhone launch last year is the
ever-growing trend of touch-screen phones. LG was one of the first
manufacturers out of the gate with phones such as the LG Voyager and the LG
Vu dazzling us with features that we couldn't get on the iPhone, like live
Photo gallery: mobile TV and 3G connectivity. Samsung then came blazing out with the
LG Dare
Instinct, a phone that directly targets the iPhone with visual voice mail,
integrated GPS, and corporate e-mail support. Yet, many of these phones still
walked on familiar ground with its design and features.
LG's latest handset, however, dares to take things in a different direction. The appropriately
named LG Dare presents a few tricks we haven't seen before in the touch-screen phone genre.
For example, you can drag and drop icons to make your own customized shortcuts on the home
screen, or you can use a drawing pad to sketch ideas or draw a map, which can then be sent via
MMS to a friend. The Dare also has one of the most advanced cameras we've seen on a touchscreen phone--its 3.2-megapixel camera has settings like face detection, noise reduction,
panorama photo stitching, and a SmartPic technology designed for taking photos in low light.
The built-in camcorder can even record high-speed video and play it back in slow-motion,
which is a first for U.S. camera phones. We certainly wouldn't want to call this an iPhone killer
since it doesn't have features such as Wi-Fi, and its Web browser and media player aren't as
good. However, the Dare is a very appealing alternative for Verizon customers who want a
touch-screen phone with a difference. The LG Dare is priced competitively at $199 after a $50
mail-in rebate and a two-year service agreement.
Design
Like all touch-screen phones, the LG Dare's design is dominated by a large display covering
almost the entirety of the phone's front surface. Indeed, the only visible keys on the front are the
Call, Clear/Voice command, and End/Power keys at the very bottom. The Dare is quite a bit
smaller than both the iPhone and the Samsung Instinct, measuring only 4.1 inches long by 2.2
inches wide by 0.5 inch thick. It has a stainless steel border along its sides, and a black soft
touch surface on the back that gives it a nice grip in the hand. It weighs about 3.76 ounces,
which gives it a light yet solid feel.
The smaller size of the Dare also results in a smaller space for the 3-inch-wide display
(compared with the 4-plus-inch displays on the other two phones). Though we were fine with it
for most applications, we'll admit that it deters us from enjoying the full HTML browser (which
we'll get to in the Features section), since it means we have to do more scrolling than usual. The
display supports 262,000 colors and a 240x400-pixel resolution, which results in a stunning and
colorful screen with vibrant graphics and clean text. You can adjust the backlight time, the
menu fonts, the dial fonts, the display theme, and even the image of the charging screen. You
can also choose animated wallpaper if you like.
Along the bottom row of the display's home screen are five shortcut icons to the messaging inbox, the phone interface, the main menu, the phonebook, and a favorites menu (which is a
customizable graphical layout of up to nine favorite contacts). There's also a small arrow icon
on the far right of the display (about a third of the way down), which leads to a list of 11
shortcuts that you can select from 51 possible applications. You can drag and drop these
shortcut icons to change the order in which they appear. However, the coolest thing is that you
can also drag and drop them directly to the home screen. Simply tap on an icon and drag it

toward the home screen, and let go. You
can then arrange the icons anywhere on
your home screen as well.
Going back to the Favorites menu, not
only do you have a graphical layout of
your favorite contacts, but you can also
drag and drop them around the screen.
After selecting a contact, you can either
have instant access to a new text message
or an immediate phone call. You can also
edit that contact information on the spot.
Another innovative aspect of the Dare's
touch screen is the option for a "scattered"
menu interface layout. You can then drag
The LG Dare has an innovative drag-andand drop the scattered icons to new
drop menu interface.
positions in the menu. We found this to be
quite fun and intuitive, but can't help but
think it's rather unnecessary. We would
have been just as happy with the
traditional grid menu layout (which is a menu style option as well). Throughout the menu
interface, you will see a back arrow on the upper left, which will lead you back to the previous
screen, and a Home button, which will lead you back to the home screen.
Like the Instinct, the Dare offers haptic tactile feedback, which gives tiny vibrations when
tapping on the screen. It's very helpful when selecting menu options, since it provides a
physical confirmation of the selection. You can go through a calibration wizard to adjust to the
screen's sensitivity, and you can adjust the vibrate type (short, double, or long) and vibrate level
(low, medium, high, or off altogether). You can also turn on "vibration when scrolling," which
sets off tiny vibrations when scrolling up and down lists. We actually recommend this, so you
know you're scrolling through a list and not accidentally selecting something.
This brings us to the touch interface itself.
While we largely enjoyed the touch
interface experience, we have to admit
there is still a slight learning curve. Often
we would select something without
meaning to, especially when scrolling up
and down lists or dragging icons around.
The touch interface is certainly more
sensitive than we thought it would be,
even after going through the calibration
wizard. After a day or two of fiddling
around with it though, we learned to
adjust.

The LG Dare has a virtual QWERTY
keyboard.

We found dialing and texting to be quite
easy, even with the touch-screen interface.
The phone interface consists of the
standard numeric keypad, a voice

command button, a handwriting button that will let you "write" the numbers instead of using
the keypad, plus two shortcuts to the recent calls list and the contacts list. The keypad features
nice big numbers, and after you're done dialing, you can hit either the green Call button, or the
physical Talk button on the lower left. There's also a Save key for storing new phone numbers.
During a call, a few shortcut icons appear to activate the speakerphone, call mute, send a text
message, add a note, connect to a Bluetooth headset, and even voice record.
There are several input options for texting. You can either use the virtual T9 keypad, or you can
twist the phone 90 degrees in the counterclockwise direction and a QWERTY keyboard will
automatically appear. We're then able to tap on each key with our thumbs. Tapping each key
will magnify that key momentarily, just like on the iPhone. The keyboard has a dedicated space
bar, return button, period, and alias (@) keys, plus a Shift button to switch between capital
letters and other symbols. Unlike the iPhone, you can indeed copy and paste text, simply by
highlighting with your fingers and hitting a Copy button. However, the Dare doesn't correct
your spelling.

The LG Dare has a 3.5mm headset jack.

Another method for entering text would be via handwriting, or a graffiti method. The
handwriting recognition works quite well, but we did have some problems with it. For one
thing, we had to keep switching modes between capital letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and
symbols--it wasn't smart enough to figure out the characters on its own. Also, it's a lot easier to
handwrite with a stylus, or if you have long fingernails--using just our fingertips resulted in
more mistakes.
The Dare also has a proximity sensor that will automatically turn off the LCD while in a call to
prevent accidental touch input, similar to the iPhone. It also has a light sensor that adjusts
brightness automatically to conserve on battery life. As mentioned above, the Dare has an
accelerometer that will rotate the display 90 degrees counterclockwise for certain applications
like the browser, the texting keypad, and other applications. For the picture view screen and the
music player, the screen can be rotated 360 degrees.

On the left spine of the Dare is a Hold key, a microSD card slot, a speakerphone key, and a
USB charging jack. On the top is a 3.5mm headphone jack, while the volume rocker and
dedicated camera sit on the right spine. On the back of the phone is the camera lens and LED
flash. There's no self-portrait mirror though.
Features
The Dare comes with a generous 1,000-entry contacts list with room in each entry for five
numbers and two e-mail addresses. You can also save callers to groups, and you can pair them
with a photo and one of 26 polyphonic ringtones. Other essential features include text and
multimedia messaging, a vibrate mode, a speakerphone, a calculator, a tip calculator, a
calendar, an alarm clock, a stopwatch, a world clock, and a notepad. More advanced features
include full Bluetooth support with stereo A2DP, the capability to use the phone as a modem,
and file transfer. There's also mobile e-mail, mobile instant messaging, a USB mass storage
mode, voice command and voice dialing, voice recording, and GPS functionality via Verizon's
VZ Navigator service. Mobile e-mail is restricted to popular Web mail services such as
Hotmail, Yahoo, and AOL, so it's not nearly as robust as using a smartphone.
A nice bonus feature on the Dare is a drawing pad. This pad lets you sketch little doodles or
draw a rough map with a variety of pen sizes and colors. You can then send this image to your
friends via MMS if you wish.
The Dare has a full HTML browser. It won't support Flash, but that's fine for a phone such as
this. As we mentioned earlier, you can rotate the phone to display the browser in landscape
mode, which makes entering URLs a lot easier via the QWERTY keyboard. However, the
browser experience is nowhere as clean as the Safari browser on the iPhone. Zooming in and
out is a pain--we had to use either the onscreen controls or the volume keys to do so. Panning
the browser page with our fingers took some time, as the screen responded slowly. Also, since
the display is small, we often had to do a lot of scrolling to see everything. Alternatively, if we
zoomed out to see the browser page in full-screen mode, the text would be too small to read
(The camera key can be used to see the full screen overview as well). You can bookmark pages
as well as send URLs to your friends via e-mail, which is a nice touch. However, the overall
experience left us cold, and we almost would rather opt for the stripped-down mobile versions
of the Web sites instead.
Of course, since the Dare is on the Verizon EV-DO network, it also has access to Verizon's
broadband services in the form of V Cast Video and V CastMusic. The V Cast Video and V
Cast Music experience is the same as that on other phones. However, the music player interface
is quite improved over what we've seen before. There are shortcut icons to Play All, Shop, and
Sync, which correspond to the full playlist, the V Cast Music store, and USB syncing
respectively. Songs are automatically categorized by genre, artist, and album, and settings
include repeat and shuffle. When playing a song, you get the typical play, pause, and track
shuttle controls, plus you get to see album art as well. There's even a pseudo Cover Flow that
lets you flick through songs by moving your finger across the screen. The Dare also has
something called Background Mode Music that lets you listen to music in the background while
doing other things--the music pauses when you receive calls, and when the call ends, the music
will resume where you left off. The Dare has a microSD card slot that supports up to 8GB of
additional storage.
Arguably, the best feature of the Dare, however, lies in its 3.2-megapixel camera. You can take
pictures in five resolutions (2,048x1,536, 1,600x1,200, 1,280x960, 640x480, and 320x240),
five white balance presets, five color effects, four ISO settings (Auto ISO, ISO 100, ISO 200,

and ISO 400), and six preset scenes. Other
camera settings include spot or average
photometry, multishot, three shutter
sounds (with a silent option), auto focus, a
self-timer, flash, and four different shot
types (Normal, Panorama, Split, and
Frame). It even offers face detection to
ensure someone's face is in focus and
noise reduction, which reduces the amount
of artifacts in an image. Most notably,
however, is something called SmartPic
technology, which enhances images with
face color compensation (dubbed Smart
Beauty), as well as light compensation
(dubbed Smart Light)--especially in low
light situations.
The Dare has an excellent SchneiderKreuznach certified lens that promises
excellent photo quality, and it delivers.
Images looked sharp, with accurate colors,
and everything looked in focus. After you
take your picture, you are presented with
an array of image-editing options, such as
zooming, rotating, cropping, changing the
contrast, sharpening, and blurring. You
can even use your finger to doodle over
the image, or edit it with frames, effects,
and stamps.

The built-in camcorder isn't too shabby
either. It's one of the first camera phones
to record up to three resolutions (176x144,
320x240, and 640x240 VGA)--the VGA
format is only for storing on the device,
since MMS can't support files that large

yet. You can record videos up to 470KB
for MMS. Settings are similar to that of
the still camera. Another bonus option is
the ability for high-speed video recording.
You can record videos in 120 frames per second (fps) and then play it back with 15fps slow
motion. This is the first phone in the U.S. that has this functionality. Video quality was
surprisingly decent. The action movements looked blurry with some jerkiness, but it's not that
bad for a camera phone. You can trim videos plus add fade effects as well.
You can personalize the Dare with lots of wallpaper, graphics, sounds, alert tones, and more.
The Dare doesn't come with any games, but you can download them, as well as more graphics
and sounds, via the Web browser.

absolutely excellent. Voices sounded loud and clear, with almost no static and echo. Callers
said we still sounded like we were on a cell phone, but other than that, there was no distortion.
Even when we used the speakerphone, callers said there was little to no difference in sound
quality. On our end, callers sounded great as well. Speakerphone quality was a tad on the tinny
and hollow side, but we could still hear them just fine. We also paired the Dare with the
Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth headset without a problem.
We were very impressed with the EV-DO Rev. A speeds. Web pages loaded in mere seconds,
and it took about a minute to download a 1.5MB song. V Cast videos loaded without a lot of
rebuffering, though streaming video quality still looked pretty pixelated. Sound quality was
very good as well; the speaker has decent sound output, but we would rather use a stereo
headset instead.
The LG Dare has a rated battery life of 4.6 hours of talk time and 15 days of standby time. Our
tests revealed a talk time of 4 hours and 57 minutes. According to FCC radiation tests, the LG
Dare has a digital SAR rating of 1.09 watts per kilogram.
