It does seem like a step backwards from the env3 in some ways, though. The volume doesn’t get very high, and it’s slightly bulkier. However, at least the screen is bigger. Also, they moved the exclamation point to the B key (instead of the 1 key like every other keyboard uses) (the Octane puts a tilde on the 1-key). The Octane includes the upside-down Spanish question mark on the V-key, and the question mark on the C-key.

The startup and shutdown songs are reverted back to the old ones.

Here is an example of the old songs, used in the Cosmos series and the old VX9800 from 2005 (this video shows a Cosmos, but the Octane has the same sounds)

Here is the song used from the env2 and env3 (the 2 is shown in this video, but the env3 used the same songs)

LG should’ve kept that song for their newer phones.

Was this post sent through a time portal? Also, I remember my cosmos. That phone was the best phone I ever had. like 2 weeks on a charge.

How the hell do you text on this thing? My old lg that I had in 2008, you had to press the 1 button 11 times to get the exclamation point.

We sold the hell out of these to kids that the parents wouldn’t let them get an iPhone and to the parents of kids that didn’t want to teach their parents how to use an iPhone.

I just got my new phone also. I’m impressed with how much they improved the battery weight and dropped it to only 4 pounds.
