With the LG Rumor Touch you get a mobile phone with a basic and simple design. This phone measures 4.2 x 2.2 x 0.6 inches and weighs 4.7 ounces. It is heavy enough that it feels solid when holding it in your hand, but not so heavy that it’s uncomfortable. On the front of the Rumor Touch is a 3-inch touchscreen. This screen is responsive and easy to use. When you slide the display to the side, you get a five row QWERTY keyboard.
