General Comments

I got this recently and I'm very happy with it. The LG U8110 is a phone that's a good phone that has fun stuff and isn't the size of one ten years ago.
Firstly, the camera. The still camera comes with almost as options as my old Samsung E700. There's the flash (which doesn't work very well as in it doesn't flash or light much up but it's handy for going into dark rooms with), quality, size, multishot, 2x zoom, brightness, delay and camera effects to entertain you.
However most people are going to be attracted to the "video" side of it, like me. I was not disappointed, as you can still have the light, zoom, brightness and effect options and record as much as you want until your memory is full- or in little mini clips that you can send off.
The videos are of quite good quality, for a phone and it can play 3 videos in quicktime so no waiting. I've just downloaded a Monty Python clip off of 3's site because of their generous offer of free downloads for the first month on contract.
The screen is very good for playing all these videos on as it's big and nice and bright. You can also change the screen to "bright" instead of "normal" for when you're outdoors.
The reception is very good as I've had a full 3g signal all the time, which is fun.
The menus are nice and colourful and easy to navigate, and it reminds me of my old Samsung V200, which is good. There is a lack of games but how many people actually spend more than five minutes playing them? Not me. So I'm ok about it.
The battery is very good for a 3 phone. Lasts for days, not hours. And that's with me messing about with the video a lot.
One very small thing that annoys me is that you can select a few pictures you have and create an animated image with them. However if you set this as your background, the animation won't loop round and keep playing, it will only play once. And the quality goes very bad. But that's all.
So my conclusion is that this truly is the best 3 phone. It's not buggy, it does what a phone does well, it won't die on you halfway through a call, and it's nice to look at.
