Worth exactly what I paid for it - $0.

Now I know what "LG" stands for - "Laughable Gear", or "Lousy Gear".

Stereo speakers on a phone that's 1.5" wide?  Are you kidding me?  What idiot at LG had that brainstorm?

Reception is LOUSY!!  Verizon's service sucks anyway, but reception on this POS is even worse than it was on my Motorola Razr (that just died).

When I get around to replacing this ill-designed, non-performing POS I'll throw this thing in the river.

Pros

None

Cons

You name it, it probably doesn't work or work very well.

Nice modern looking phone, lots of features that aren't actually necessary if you just need a phone and don't play games, surf the web or take pictures. Using a hands-free headset with this phone sounds like you're in a tin can, callers complain that they can't hear me clearly. One in five calls have MAJOR feedback and/or echo - something I never had with my old Motorola phone. Alerts for missed calls or call wating can be annoying when you're on a call that you don't want to interrupt. Some alerts are 'hard coded' into the phone and cannot be changed or turned off. If you have large hands the navigation arrows may be hard to use as they are too recessed.

Pros

Slim design and nice look, fits nicely into holder or pocket. Lots of features-perhaps more than an average user may need.

Cons

Sounds like a 'tin can' when you're on speakerphone. Headset clarity isn't much better. Many callers say thay can't understand me.

I compared all of Verizon's phones when I was looking for a new phone, and this one seemed solid and fairly inexpensive. It does exactly what I need it to do, and it does it well. When I'm at home I only have to charge it about once a week (although when I'm at college I have to charge it every few days because it's always trying to get service). I like that I can read texts on the front screen. I always use vibrate mode, and the vibrate is weaker than the one on my old phone, but it's bearable. It has several choices in themes and fonts. The microSD slot is easily accessible. If you're looking for a simple but quality phone, I highly recommend this phone!

Pros

Battery life
Front screen

Cons

Weak vibrations
