great phone

The LG banter is one of the best phones you could buy .I got it for my birthday and I love it . the battery only goes down a bar if i use the phone a lot so thats great.I get signal everywhere i go and the faceplates are the best because you can chane them and they have designs . i hope they make a second banter.





great for texting,great sound quality,changeable faceplates and backplates,quality pictures,and a lock feature
screen gets scratched but i can buy a screen protecter.

Great phone, just one problem

This has been a wonderful phone, but some of the letters on the keyboard has gotten where they work sometimes and sometimes they do not work. so now that Verizon took over Alltel, and my phone is still in warranty. But Verizon does not offer the banter phone so im having to get the closest thing to it. Which is the LG Env3. suppose to be gettin it in the mail soon. Guess we will see if its as good as the BANTER....def a grrr8 phone, other than the keys that dont work.





The sliding keyboard and it takes GREAT pictures.
Some keys on my keyboard have quit working. Especially the letter "C"

OMG I love it!

Personally this phone is amazing. It works great! The batter lasts quite a long time. Texting is great and I love that I can set a different ringtone for each person! I really love the chat setting too. I have a little problem with remembering what I sent someone sometimes. It's kind of a pain to go all the way back to your sent folder just to see what you sent, but with chat is quick and easy to read your whole conversation.
