Not sure if referring to capacitive buttons that go dark or on-screen buttons that are removed when not needed…

If Verizon is going to continue insisting that their logo is always front and center on devices, and they definitely are, then they need a new logo. One that preferably doesn’t look like the quality assurance stamps under the battery. Luckily the Bionic’s came of with my fingernail

Hmmm… Looks pretty dang nice to me. But it’s going up against the RAZR Maxx HD and the SGSIII. Sorry LG. Verizon keeps doin’ you wrong. Should’ve gotten the Optimus G instead. =(

I’ll consider it when my next upgrade comes up, depending on what the storage is. I think the original Spectrum only had 4GB, that was ridiculous.
I don’t see any storage reference on BB’s page except the “up to 32GB MicroSD card”

I for one can’t stand the disappearing buttons. Google seems too interested in reinventing the iphone

Eh…bluetooth or a wired headset solves that problem. I was considering getting this device, as making phone calls really has become secondary for me…but if you use your phone as a phone first, then you should avoid this…

The branding on all VZ phones should read “Neutered by Verizon.”

I have to wonder why they would bother? It appears the buttons are modeled after the ones used in ICS…why not just let android handle it for you and not have buttons? It seems like that would be one less thing to worry about.

but the phone you are thinking of is a completely different phone. this phone is the us version of the optimus lte2, which is quite similar, not the optimus g you are thinking of. two completely different phones.

Sorry for sounding well, stupid I guess, but why do people not like the capacitive buttons on the bottom? Serious question.

I saw a guy at a restaurant tonight with a Galaxy Note. His phone rang, and he had to stand up to get the phone out of his pocket. When he put it up to his head to answer, he could no longer see the person next to him who was trying to tell him something about the call, and he had to keep moving the phone away from his face to see her. It was almost comical.

There’s a point when a phone gets too big
