Default Which cell phone should I get?

I'm looking to get one now and here are the two I narrowed it down to. It must be one of these two since it falls under my credit towards my "New Every Two" plan. Which one would you pick? There are quite a bit of reviews on the linked sites, but if any of you guys personally use any one of these phones, how do you like them?

LG VX8350
ZDNet LG VX8350 - black (Verizon Wireless) Review & Comparison


Samsung SCH-u620
ZDNet Samsung Mobi SCH-U620 (Verizon Wireless) Review & Comparison


Disregard the TV function for the Samsung version.

Samsung phones are notorious for poor signal reception. So unless you live in a large city I would go a different route. From what I have heard Motorola has the best reception.

Never had a problem with my RAZR, although I've only had it for about 1.5 months. Heh...today at school I accidentally slammed it onto the floor.

I know a guy at school that said he kinda beats up on his RAZR and he hasn't had any problems either.
