Performance
We tested the dual-band, dual-mode (CDMA 800/1900; EV-DO) LG VX8500 Chocolate in San Francisco using Verizon's service. Call quality was impressive, and we had no problem getting a signal. Callers could still tell were using a cell phone, but they had no problem hearing or understanding us. The speakerphone quality was also good; incoming sound was loud and clear and callers could hear us just fine. We were able to pair the Chocolate with the Cardo S-2 stereo Bluetooth headset and enjoyed great sound quality with both calls and music.
EV-DO speeds were remarkably fast. Song downloads took less than a minute, and browsing was great. Streaming video did pause for some rebuffering, but it wasn't that bad. We were also very impressed with the music quality overall. When heard from the stereo speaker, sound quality was kind of thin, but it was still sufficiently loud. A stereo Bluetooth headset of course makes the music sound even better. It probably won't replace a dedicated MP3 player, but it's good enough for short stints of music. The LG VX8550 Chocolate has a rated talk time of 4 hours and a promised standby time of 14 days. Our tests revealed a talk time of 4 hours and 41 minutes. According to FCC radiation tests, the LG VX8550 Chocolate has a digital SAR rating of 1.29 watts per kilogram. .
