A simple droid phone.
by Jordan1472 on October 22, 2011
Pros: Full control over battery use. Seven custom home screens. Gmail. Google voice search. Backup Assistant. This phone is very easy and simple to use.
Cons: Slow, unresponsive or error messages when you send around 40 text an hour. A bit slower then most smart phones.
Summary: The best entry level phone you will find.

Would NOT recommend this smart phone

Cons: Low batter life, zero frills, poor quality

Summary: Although it does text, web, and social media - it is very lackluster compared to other phones. I switched from a Blackberry Torch and am very discouraged. This phone is slower, graphics are worse, and it iasn't near as easy to navigate. The battery life is absolutely horrible. It goes dead in about 6 hours and that is with only making a few texts. I would stay on my blackberry and text, phone calls, email all day and it would last 18+ hours.

Phone is ok but keyboard is the best feature
by lgnotfavorable on January 16, 2012
Pros: Keyboard is the best feature.
Cons: Battery life is very poor. Had the phone fully charged at 8:00am for 2 consecutive days and completely died by 7:00pm. Did not make any calls, answer emails or steam videos. Took forever to recharge in the evening. Do not recommend this phone!
Summary: LG is a quality company and makes great products but this phone needs a better battery life. Needed to replace this phone with another product. Verizon was very helpful is ...
