Good little phone Rumor 2

1 Oct 2009 Lance Charles

7.7 out of 10

Bought this phone to communicate with my daughter who moved across the country. The phone is well placed as far as buttons and features. The process for each feature is relatively easy to setup and navigate. Like anything else you have to get use to the process but in short order you can master this device. Bluetooth works well but can get stuck with some devices. The only thing that surprised me was that LG had decided to block the ability to add ringtones and wallpapers via bluetooth and cable USB. It seems that the only way to add new screens or ringtones is to pay the provider. In time a crack may surface that will solve this issue but for now you either pay or put up with what you have. The phone however is solid enough to not make this a really big deal.. Great phone and with the right package a winner. Internet sucks on this phone by the way  so if its important to you think about a better phone. GPS service  works well but its a minite or 2 before you get through all the menus ...again once you get accustomed to the process you can easily navigate through it.





Compact
Well made
good features
Internet sucks
No ability to add ring tones or wallpaperss without paying.

Good call and text phone

This is a very nice quality call and texting phone.  Callers on other networks and on Sprint could hear my voice clear.  The slider keyboard is comfortable and spacious and the screen is adequate size.  I preferred this over the Samsung Rant as it was noticably lighter and looks more stylish to me as I chose the one with black with chrome siding.  This unit does not support 3G so your web browsing capability is limited.  Don't expect to be making fast online reservations or quick web searches using this one.  It has a nice MP3 player however and the side SD card slot makes uploading your music and pics to the phone convenient without having to remove the battery or back cover as seen in other phones.  





Good for heavy text users.
Comfortable and spacious slider keyboard.
Stylish with nice chrome finish.
SD card slot located on side.
Voice calls are clear.
No 3G support.
