Good phone ... some flaws - BE SURE TO RATE MY REVIEW
35 of 45 people found this review helpful.
First off, I usually like LG phones. I've had many of them and they always impress me. This one was not very impressive.
I expect a lot from a cell phone because I use them frequently (I think everyone does nowadays). This phone is GREAT from the outside. It looks cool, it feels good in your hand, the slider works great, it's easy to open and operate. But the phone disappoints me with its functionality.
First, the volume on the earpiece isn't loud enough (especially when you're in an even moderately noisy environment, like the mall).
Second, the slide mechanism is easy to operate, but it seems a little too easy to close. The phone has rubber on it to assist in gripping the phone which is nice, but it's far too easy to close which made me afraid I was going to hang up on my boss when I was driving down the road eating my bagel and tightening my tie.
Third, the battery life didn't seem to be all that great. I need a phone that I can leave unplugged for a day or two and still have juice. If you use this phone, you will need to charge it at the end of the day.
Finally, the speakerphone just isn't that great. It sounds ok on my end, but others constantly complain that it sounds weird.
So here's a quick overview:
PROS
=====================
Great Ergonomics
Very Lightweight
CONS
=====================
Earpiece volume is too low
The speakerphone is not acceptable for the other party
Battery life leaves much to be desired
Hope this info helps. My recommendation before you buy this phone would be to try a demo (if your provider has one) or try someone else's first.
