With so much attention given to smartphones by their manufacturers and wireless providers, you’d think those were the only devices available for purchase. Thankfully this is not the case, as there are still easy-to-use basic phones out there, and some even come with a full QWERTY keyboard for messaging, such as the new LG Cosmos 2 for Verizon Wireless.Included in the retail package is the LG Cosmos 2 VN251 phone, 900mAh battery, wall charger with detachable microUSB cable, and user guide.The LG Cosmos 2 is an updated version of the original LG Cosmos that came out last year, though both are about the same size and weight, and fit comfortably in the hand. However, the Cosmos 2 replaces the slipper battery door for one that is textured, thus allowing a better grip while holding the phone.Size Visualization ToolBoth phones retain the same with 240x320 resolution and 262K color support. Images and text look nice and crisp, though we do wish the screen size were larger this time around. The main keypad on the Cosmos 2 has been redesigned, as the are now a bit larger and easier to dial numbers with, though this did take away space from the upper softkeys, speakerphone and clear key, as those now feel smaller and cramped together.
Even though LG expanded its smartphone presence in the U.S. with phones like the LG Revolution and the T-Mobile G2X, the company still makes plenty of simple messaging phones for those who want something a little more basic. The LG Cosmos 2 is the latest member in this category for Verizon Wireless, and it's essentially a successor to the LG Cosmos messaging phone from last year. The Cosmos 2 is quite an entry-level handset even by feature phone standards, with only a 1.3-megapixel camera and no 3G. However, it does have a music player, Bluetooth, mobile e-mail, and quick access to popular social networks. It doesn't have too many improvements over its predecessor, but it is free with a new two-year service agreement and a $79.99 discount. At first glance, the LG Cosmos 2 looks practically identical to its predecessor. It nearly has the same dimensions, measuring about 4.41 inches long by 2.06 inches wide by 0.63 inch deep, and has a similar compact candy bar look when closed. It's made out of matte black plastic, with rounded corners and a textured gray battery cover on the back for extra grip.
