Is It Your Type? Body The Three S's Touch

Jan 3, 2011, 9:35 PM by Philip Berne

The LG Cosmos Touch offers an assortment of messaging and social features in a compact phone. With a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and a touchable interface, does it aim for the stars, or fall back to earth?

The LG Cosmos Touch is a very compact device with a side-sliding QWERTY keyboard and a touchscreen up front. It's got obvious appeal for messaging fans, and it offers a strange blend of advanced features and basic simplicity. Was this phone as fun to use as it looks?

Can't understand the touch issue

I've tried out the Cosmos Touch at a local Verizon store, and had no problem using the touch screen whatsoever. The accuracy was good, selecting icons did not require high effort, and sliding was fairly easy, even compared to my wife's Droid 2.

I can't imagine why the review of this part of the phone is so damning, or why it sinks the whole thing.
