Styling
Pretty good camera
speaker/mic quality above average
Bluetooth doesn't work with Vista or TomTom
Touch pad a little sensitive
No more than 2 days battery life on standby
Poor signal strength everywhere
Seldom logged missed calls
Very nice looking phone, but undoubtedly the worst I've owned since my first Motorola house brick in the early 90's. I rarely if ever had a usable signal inside any building, and the phone, as an added bonus feature presumably, actually only notified me of approximately 1 in 5 missed calls.
Bluetooth is unusable with TomTom or as a wireless modem because LG have apparently messed with the standard just enough to render it entirely useless.
Battery life is laughable - I was unable to receive or make calls pretty much everywhere I went, so the phone was mainly on standby, lasting less than 48 hours between charges. If I was lucky enough to make a call, the battery would be flat in under 15 minutes.
I only tried this because I was bored with Nokias, but I'm pleased to have gone back to them.
