LG GW520

brought this phone as a upgrade from my zte f102 . wanted a touch screen phone with keyboard didnt like it after a day the menus down work good with my fingers i had to buy a touch screen pen eg nintendo ds pen lol . the internet browser is bad its like a pc screen with internet but no mouse try and use the screen with middle size fingers. the rest off featuers eg mp3 and radio are good and the sound is good and loud . skype dont work you have to find the skype version and not the version that comes preloaded confusing i know but you end up having to version on a phone one works the other you cant uninstall battery is good with heavy use runs out in 6 hours . the keyboard is good for msn . dont like the phone at all so given it to wife while i brought a inq chat 3g as a replacement which i do a review in a moment .

I wasn't sure about this at first, mainly because I'm a Nokia fan at heart, and secondly because I had the LG Prada but I didn't like the touch screen. However this phone is growing on me! I love that it's both touch screen and has a QWERTY keypad, and has a good shortcuts menu and other nice features. Decent camera and good storage capacity. Battery life is OK until you want to listen to music - in that case stick to your ipod because you'll only get a couple of hours before it completely dies without warning! Also, the colours for the menu screens etc can't be changed (or I'm yet to find out how to change it!). I do like the alternative font for everything, nice touch. All in all nice little phone, not many fancy features like e.g. Nokia N95 etc etc but I only want a phone and an alarm so it does the job nicely!
