The LG Chocolate 3 (aka VX8560) is quite different from its predecessors in that it is a clamshell-style phone instead of a slider. Can it still be considered a Chocolate? Let's take a look at what this phone has to offer, and if it can shine above the others.

They finally got it right
Spacious keypad
The FM transmitter sounded great through the radio
