The LG VX9400 is a mobile phone manufactured by LG Electronics. The CDMA radio is supplied by Verizon Wireless in the United States.

The unique design of the QVGA display allows it to swing up into landscape orientation for TV viewing. Other key features of the VX9400 includes stereo Bluetooth, an SD card slot, digital music player, EVDO high-speed data connectivity, and speakerphone.[1][2]
