LG Dare VX9700 3G 3.2-megapixel Touchscreen, Factory Refurbished, Verizon Page PLUS CDMA
Factory refurbished and reconditioned to close-to-new working order, the LG Dare VX9700 is the 2008 Verizon and Page Plus CDMA touchscreen phone with a 3-inch screen, handwriting recognition, and a 3.2 megapixel camera. Collector shops, prop houses, and parts buyers are the market for this unit, since Verizon's CDMA network is retired and the phone has no carrier service today.
The LG Dare VX9700 is a 2008 Verizon touchscreen feature phone, one of the first full-touch handsets on the carrier: a 3-inch touchscreen with handwriting recognition, a 3.2-megapixel camera with face detection, flash, and in-phone photo editing, stereo Bluetooth, microSD expansion up to 8 GB, mobile email, V CAST Music and Rhapsody support, and up to 4.7 hours of talk time on Verizon's CDMA EV-DO network.
TG Wireless supplies the Dare factory refurbished to collector and retro-phone shops, prop houses that need a period-correct 2008 Verizon touchscreen, and parts buyers. It has no US carrier service today.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
The Dare is a CDMA EV-DO phone with no GSM or LTE radio. Verizon retired its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, and Page Plus, which rode on Verizon, went with it, so the phone gets no voice or data service in the United States today and cannot be used abroad. It is listed as a Verizon and Page Plus CDMA unit; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collectors, film and TV props, display units, offline camera and music use, and parts.
Resale fit
- Collector and retro-phone shops stocking early full-touch feature phones in tested condition.
- Film, TV, and photo productions that need a period-correct 2008 Verizon handset.
- Repair benches using complete units as parts or display donors.
