After using two of the same phone, I do not recommend it.

29 May 2009 Anonymous

5.7 out of 10

I've made the mistake of getting this phone twice. The first time I had it, the battery would no longer charge after about a year. Even after using a new charger, it woulddn't hold the charge for more than a few minutes. I ended up paying for the replacement and (unfortunately) got another AX380. I've had this one since last June and, just like before, had no problems until now. A few days ago, I couldn't keep it charged for more than a few minutes. As of today, it will no longer charge. The phone does not detect that the charger is even plugged in. The phone dies after being lit up for around 15 seconds. If I leave the phone off for a few minutes, the battery logo is "full", but dies soon after. If you consider buying this phone, I'm telling you now that it is a waste of time, money, and effort. Unless you plan on using this phone for less than a year, this isn't the phone for you. Its too bad because everything except the battery/charger has worked wonderfully for me. Fortunately, I am due for a new phone in about two weeks. Maybe this piece of junk will survive until then.

BAD, BAD PHONE

10 Mar 2009 Brenda Wallen

5.3 out of 10

At first, my husband and I liked the phone. The battery held its charge for a day and a half, and I used it constantly. After less than a year, though, the bluetooth wouldn't work. No problem, as I never used that feature much anyway. However, my husband came to me a couple of months ago, and said that his phone wouldn't charge. He's a trucker, so he needs that phone. So, he got a replacemant at $50 insurance co-pay. Within 2 weeks, mine quit charging. My new phone is on the way as I type this. Hopefully they didn't have the LG UX380, and are sending me the razor, because my husband just called me and told me that the new phone he got isn't charging. I do not recommend this phone to anyone. It sucks!! My plan is coming due for renewal, so I will try to do as much research on the newer phones, if I choose to get another one.

Near Perfect Phone!

9.7 out of 10

I LOVE this phone. The signal is excelent. I've had it just over a year and have had little problems with it. The only problem i've had is with the speakerphone, but it is a very rare problem that has happened once or twice in just over a year (but then again, my phone has been dropped MANY times). The problem was that the person on the other end would hear an echo while I had it on speaker. But like I said, it's only happened once or twice and my phone has been abused. Speaking of which, do NOT get the small belt clip...the one that only covers the back...the phone comes off too easily. If my elbow even slightly hits the top of the clip, the phone pops out.


As for bluetooth, there was an echo on both sides (sometimes only on one) when I used my headset, HOWEVER, I had a very cheap headset. I'm sure if I paid more for one that specificaly mentioned this phone, that I wouldn't have a probelm.


I have no problem opening this phone one handed. Slightly tough since it is so thin, but not that hard. I can open it with my middle finger. I do worry about accidentaly hitting the camera button as it is right beneath my thumb, but so far so good.


Lastly, as for texting, I don't do it. So I can't say whether it's good or bad.


 


Overall, 9/10!
