- On the lower end is the LG Aloha clamshell/flip phone. This very basic phone for under $30 is the first LG on the Virgin Mobile USA line up. No stand out features, and no outside display. Despite this I would say it is an upgrade to the Oystr, and the white and silver looks much more stylish.
- Next up is the spruced up version of the UTStarcom's Slice, the new Super Slice. Slightly thinner, better screen, raised and more easy to press buttons, VGA camera, & probably the most exciting of all for VM USA customers, bluetooth. Like the original Slice, it comes in black, red, and white with silver buttons.
- Last but certainly not least is the Wild Card. The second QWERTY phone on the VM USA line up, most will consider this the best of the VM USA bunch. Like the Super Slice, the Wild Card features bluetooth, dual displays, a 1.3MP camera, and of course a full QWERTY keyboard all for $99.
Of course if you still don't see anything you like, a version of the Motorola W385 is still rumored to be just around the corner, but don't expect it before the holidays.
The Aloha is already being sold in the few Virgin Megastores for about $35. It will begin selling online reportedly by September. It's just your basic entry-level flip phone. Even though there are no bells and whistles, no cam, and no outside display it is a nice looking phone. This is the first phone by LG on Virgin Mobile USA, and hopefully the quality will be better than some of the Kyoceras that have came out on VM. The branding looks nice compared to most VM phones because the colors actually match the phone.
The Super Slice is the predecessor to the original UTStarcom Slice. I personally love the original slice because it is so small and thin an it is perfect for what I need it for, making calls and text messaging. The only drawback to the original slice is that the keys were somewhat small and if you don't have smaller hands it would be difficult to use it. To improve this, the keypad on the Super Slice is raised. It will also be the first VM phone to have bluetooth. Another improvement to the original Slice, the Super Slice has a VGA camera...making it even sweeter, now let's hope it will come in red too! The Super Slice will go on sale in September.
