User Reviews & Recommendations

Good purchase (Jen, BC)

User Rating:

Got this phone last month. Love the picture it takes! But the only problem with this phone is that when you are using a java application, it heats up. The only way to cool it down is by removing the back cover & switch the application off.

 

user-friendly (Leonard, QC)

User Rating:

Great looking phone with great features. Really easy to use & the format is very similar to using my old Nokia. Only grief with it is that when you receive a text you only get a small envelope appearing & you have to go through the menu to retrieve it, maybe there is a simpler way but I haven't found it yet. Would definitely recommend.

 

Great gift (Michael, Ontario)

User Rating:

I bought the phone for my wife. As long as it has girly keypad tones, a mirror of some sort & can play music its fine! Thanks LG for putting me in the good books (for now).

 

Memory (George, NS)

User Rating:

I have only had this phone for about a month & it is an excellent phone the features are good & the design is stunning however I only have one problem the amount of internal memory is only 41 mbs which isn't that good. I do recommend this phone 2 other people as I had a p300 before this & I can tell you know this is much beta.

 

impressive so far (Tanya, UK)

User Rating:


I haven't had this phone for a very long time but so far I am very impressed, it has a really good camera & video camera & good MP3. The memory is quite big & it can store quite a lot of things. At the shop they told me this phone was hard to use but after having it for a few days I disagree, at first it will be hard to use as it is different to most other phone but after about a day you will get it. I would recommend this phone to everyone.
