Phone owned for more than a year

Great phone, too bad Sprint is the Worst Post paid network in my area. 4G with the processor makes it great for games. I just can't stop draining the battery :) (network, not phone). I have had LG phones previously and this one is still, after 1 year, the best phone I've ever had. Even after 1yr+ it still does everything I want it to.
