With no buttons to fall back on, the LG Dare can be very difficult to use, due to the way it handles touch input. It’s too bad, because some features, like the camera and the fast Web browser, deserve to be part of a great all-round package. Clearly a lot of effort went into the interface design. It’s unique, intuitive and very customizable. It looks great and the polish extends deep into the phone’s menu structure, making the entire package feel modern. Unfortunately, serious hardware flaws stymie the designer’s efforts, and where the phone should shine, it’s more frustrating than fun.

The truth is, the Dare may not be as glamorous or well-priced as the Instinct, but it has a better browser, a motion sensor and some cool software tricks that make it a fine phone for people who choose to remain in Verizon’s walled garden.
