“This phone is absolutely appalling. It dropped calls...”

written by frogbrains on 02/04/2010

This phone is absolutely appalling. It dropped calls tons, and the signal meter seemed to jump up and down at random, even when keeping it completely still. The battery lasts for about 2 days with the phone locked, and it lost it dropped by 10% for every 3 minutes of phone call, and drops 15% for every 3 minutes of web browsing with WiFi. The built in browser is really, really slow and awful. Java games run incredibly slowly, (slower than on my ancient Sony Ericsson from 2004,) and are mostly unusable due to the useless on-screen control pad for Java apps. The MP3 player is slow and ugly. The video player follows suit. It often turns off completely at random, 50% of the time during a call. The casing of the phone is also ugly; although it has a nice-looking anodized aluminium backing, (like an iMac,) there is a cheap-looking silver bit of plastic all around the edge. And the volume control, power, and camera buttons are ugly and don't suit the rest of the case. When I tried to upgrade the firmware using the software that came with the phone on a CD, it completely broke it and I had to have LG repair it. LG's own software broke an LG phone. Great. The one good thing about this phone is the screen. The 3.5" capacitative touch screen is very responsive, (even when the UI isn't,) and the screen itself is very bright, and can displayer 16 million colours, and a very high resolution. But that is the only good thing. This phone is awful. Do not buy it.
