LG Rumor2 photos
The LG Rumor2 is a great option for a messaging phone, but LG missed the opportunity to make it both new and improved.
Kent German
Kent was a senior managing editor at CNET News. A veteran of CNET since 2003, he reviewed the first iPhone and worked in both the London and San Francisco offices. When not working, he's planning his next vacation, walking his dog or watching planes land at the airport (yes, really).
More than meets the eye
The Rumor2 offers a full QWERTY keyboard for composing messages and e-mails.
Hide away
But when the phone is closed you wouldn't know that the keyboard is there. The Rumor2 comes in basic black.
From behind
The camera lens sits on the Rumor2's rear side. You can replace the decorated rear cover with a plain cover.
In profile
The Rumor's volume rockers and camera button are located on its left spine.
Tap dance
The Rumor2 offers a roomy keyboard with tactile buttons.
On the go
The Rumor2 is a tad big, but it fits in a pocket.
Show it off
The Rumor2 has a comfortable feel in the hand.
Bonus buttons
The Rumor2 adds a fourth row of dedicated number keys.
The Rumor2 lacks a flash and a self-portrait mirror.
