The LG Chocolate³ (also known as the VX8560 or the upgraded VX8560EX with differences such as a 2 Mp camera) is a feature phone, and the upgrade to the popular LG Chocolate music phone for Verizon Wireless in the USA and Telus in Canada. It was released online July 14, 2008 and comes in black (dark blue) and baby blue (light blue). The phone has many changes over the original VX8500 Chocolate series such as a clam shell (flip) design, an external display, a change in the key layout, an updated music player, a smoother design, and a built-in FM transmitter.

Here the LG Chocolate³ is shown playing music using the external screen.
