Like any good piece of gossip, the Rumor by LG gives you something to talk about. Offered through Sprint, this messaging phone is the perfect companion for the Facebook addict and text messaging fiend. A convenient and extremely comfortable slide-out QWERTY keyboard gives the attractive handset advanced text functions and makes it a messaging saint, but the frills end there (view Rumor photo gallery).
Its subpar 1.3-megapixel camera and lack of stereo Bluetooth and 3G connectivity limit this phone’s use to messaging-happy teens. On the other hand, you can’t beat the price. The Rumor is the perfect-looking communication accessory for the teenage or college-aged texter trying to stay clear of colored Sidekicks or face-plated devices. The rounded edges of our jet-black review unit (it also comes in white) gave the phone a stylish look and felt extremely comfortable in our hands.
