Amazing Phone

2 Sep 2008 by Anonymous

9.7 out of 10

I bought the 9400 at retail price last June. I'm a pretty notorious cell phone abuser as I tend to toss the phone around when I'm bored, which leads to a ton of dropped phones.

The reception on the phone is very good, the battery life isn't amazing, but I've been using the extended battery for over a year with no complaints on the battery life. Even after a year I get about 3 or 4 days of usage out of it and I'm a text junkie so it's not like it's jsut sitting there. The screen is excellent, and the camera is amazing for a 1.3. I've yet to see a camera phone on Verizon, with the possible exception of the Rizr take a clearer picture. Now some will take better pictures, since they have a higher resolution, but this one has that crystal clear look to it, that though the picture may not be huge, it looks like it would to the naked eye, no funny lighting effects or anything like that.

The TV and video clips look cool on the horizontal screen.

Only real knock on the phone was the speaker, but that was fixed by LG last year, and all the newer ones have a much better speaker.

If the phone was cheaper when it was newer this would have many more reviews.

And yes, if you just leave it on it's default settings and throw it in your pocket it will call people. That's why you either change the setting so that you have to press the button twice to unlock it. That solves about 90% of the times you'll call someone on accident.

You also can but the holster for it, that will cause you to probably never call anyone on accident.

I love the phone, but due to it's age, it really doesn't have an appeal as a new phone to upgrade to or start your plan on.

That said in a few months when it's like 50 bucks no rebate it will be a nice phone for the people who are late upgraders. Like people who got the samsung 930 after it was out for well over a year.

Pros

Camera is surprisingly good
Very good call quality

Cons

Old phone at this point

I had this phone for about a year now and have to say that is works great. I love the call quality and a lot of the options. My two major complaints are that the speakerphone has bad feedback and the calls on this can drop in an unexpected manor. I am getting the LG Dare soon but I have to say this phone is a great quality phone.

Pros

Sleek Design
Great music quality
Good call Quality
Better than expected video from a 1.3 Megapixel cam

Cons

Feedback is bad when the speakerphone option is on
Calls seem to randomly drop like 6 times a month.
