Was eager to get the LG Arena when it came out. Waited for a few months before i got it. Boy wish i hadn't bothered.
All these reviews berating this phone aren't far off the truth. This isn't a very good phone. Actually, its a very bad phone.
So many things that are wrong with it and go wrong, its so frustrating. The main thing its supposed to be - a phone - it doesn't do well. eg. cannot end calls as it doesn't register your touch - crazy!
LG say 'The place to play' on the box. Play what? Theres nowt to play really with this phone, music playing is rubbish, picture viewing is a chore, the rotate your screen function is totally unreliable. The camera is absolutely poor, even after having tried all sorts of different settings and combinations.
To cut a long story short, dont get this phone if you are looking for one, even second hand. You WILL regret it. I cant wait to get a new phone, even though my contract isn't up yet. This was billed as an 'i-phone beater', ha what a joke!
Terrible product from LG.
