Chaser vs venture

[Kg198202]

Is this phone any better than the venture? I currently have the venture. I like the form factor of the venture, but it's pretty much unusable. Every five minutes or so it'll start lagging DVD becoming unresponsive, sometimes a battery pull fixes it. The battery life is horrible. I wasn't expecting much for 39$ bucks, but would at least like to use it s little.

Thanks
