One the best of the mike phones
I have had this phone for over 8 months now it is my first cell phone, but i did a lot of research before buying a certain mike phone i picked out which comes at a decent price tag to for what it has. First off if your just using this as a phone or for texting it's perfect if your into multimedia even better, but if your into the outside in harsh conditions not so much. The call quality is fine it's loud and clear believe me these twin speakers can get really loud 3-4 is best but it can go to 7. I think that the screens are a fair size since even from a distance you can tell what your looking at. Now one of the biggest things i have trouble with all these new phones the keypads are too cramped and the buttons are way to small. The i876 keypad is spaced out and has widened buttons this makes texting so easy not to mention it can hold 99 inbox and outbox i know other phones can hold a lot more but considering the LG keybo is phone designed for texting and only holds i heard 50 inbox then yeah it's a big difference. Other features on the i876 include a 1.3 MP camera with up to 1280 x 1024 size and a handy bright spotlight that can be used as a flashlight also it does take video and as for video length i don't totally know but it is over 3 minutes and keep in mind i added a micro SD card. The Mp3 player also has some really cool features like 3D music, equilizer and music reverbs. The one feature that stuck out to me though was a photo editor because i have never seen a photo editor...

The one feature that stuck out to me though was a photo editor because i have never seen a photo editor on a phone before and you might think it sucks but actually theirs quite a few things you can do to your pictures. I also found that it's interface was very easy to use unlike other phones it seems extremely user friendly. Finally my last pro is that it uses mini USB so you can charge your the i876 in your computer or PS3. Onto the cons now they are all fairly minor, first off the casing is cheap plastic so it scratches and dents easily that's why i said for outdoor use not a great idea but i have dropped it in snow twice and on the floor all the time and it's been fine but still i wish the casing was better. Secondly the battery life is not much but this is what you pay for when you get any mike phone really so again minor for a mike phone. Finally the external screen gets dirty from fingerprints and whatever else for the internal one i just used some book tape works great. I would like to just comment on one other thing if your wondering what is the difference between the i876 and the i877 theirs only 2 differences one being it looks cooler and two it will cost you an extra $50 for that look.
Pros
1. Call quality is loud and clear
2. Loud twin speakers
3. Large Screens
4. Keypad
5. Connection type (mini USB)
6. Awesome Camera
