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 featurescreen gets scratched but i can buy a screen protecter.

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"

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.

before i got this phone, the people said it was "video capable". nope. they also said you could watch youtube and stream! nope... so they lied their way into a sale! when i got it, i noticed the charger plug was a bit different than some other ones. Sometimes the faceplate will fall off, leaving you without a faceplate... i don't get a new phone in two years, i don't know how long i can stand it!
great for texting
good battery lifeno video
no youtube
no streaming

5. Got mine in a rush desprate to have a cellphone

When I bought mine my old cell had just been found under the tires of a co-workers car if you know what i mean. so i rushed to the nearest cell store and bought something i could live with but could also aford at the time... Now I have a Banter. Works wonders when you need it to. takes alot to get used to though. Hosenstly I think that most people hate their cells no matter how well they work or what features they have. My dad hates his phone and he doesn't even know how to use it. my cousin has a blackberry and hates it cuz its to complicated. my sisters phone is flip phone and she says "I'm waiting for the day it breaks in two." My moms phone isn't "well organized." hey I'm just glad to have a phone!
it worksits not perfect lol

I have had my phone for a month now and i like it. I dont like how it shuts off randomly and i dont like the keyboard. They placed the keys is bad places. i go to hit ok and i push an arrow key. I think the sound quality is great and i love the faceplates you can buy. They are all assorted colors and designs.
Good faceplates
Good sound qualityBad location of keys on keyboard
Shuts off randomly

I have us cellular and recently got the banter. I have had nothing go wrong on mine and i generally have huge issues with phones. i love the faceplates that came with mine. the only thing i have with it is it dont want to save words in t9word. i have had it for a week now and cant believe nothing has happened to it. i have kids so my phones dont tend to not deal with things lol.
Faceplates the green one with the design on the back. bluetooth ability and call soundthe signal is not the best
the not saving words

it's a decent phone. although the manual isnt great. because it doesn't tell you that if you hold down the left arrow key it takes you to MY MENU

i've only had this phone for about a week, but so far it's okay. i was really disappointed when i found out it didnt do video though. i thought it was cool that you could program a special ringtone AND a different txt tone for each contact though.
great screen pixel quality
instant messaging
no video!!
only one color scheme (black)
weird placement of some of the QWERTY keys
