LG U8110

LG U8110 is the most annoying phone i have ever had, i tried to replace it so many times because it was not working but i been told to upgrade it instead. I paid so much money for that piece of rubbish and now years later i am trying to put some pictures to my pc from this old problem making phone and the hardware is no where to be found. How will I ever save these pictures of my deceased father from this phone?

The LG U8110 mobile phone may look good, but honestly, once you go to the internet the service is bad, and the reception dies down no matter where you are.

The LG U8110 is OK and thats about it, I am coming to the end of my 12month contract and I will be glad to get rid of it.

It is one of the smallest 3G phones out there, but it is also one of the most annoying, I have replaced it twice, thinking it was me that was having problems with it but now I realise the phone is the problem.

The camera, was behind the times when I got it, but its innovative design appealed and I have to admit in the first few weeks of having it I was impressed. The first time I used the camera in the dark made it apparent that it was going to be lacking, it could not shot well in the dark even with the flash on and also it would not allow for good zoom.

The memory is under capacity and this was one of the first things they rectified on the later models, SMS alert tones are too brief, having been use to a GX10, T610 and a variety of Nokias previously I was disappointed. I work in a busy office where sometimes you need to be able to hear your phone over the office noise and the shortness of the alerts meant it was easily missed.

Overall it is ok but I would not get another LG for a while, I hope those of you who have got a newer version of the model.

Oh last point, I have always seemed to have to charge the phone every night to keep it going.

The LG U8110 is a amazing tool for the first few months Then the signal starts dropping. Three are the worst service providers I have ever known, if the phone has a problem the service centre is in India. You are charged national rate on a landine. After five minutes of security questions you try to explain the problem to a person thousands of miles away. Eventually phones are picked up and returned three days later not working. The LG phones all need reflashing, software replacement. After a few months 3 will not replace handsets once you are eight months into contract. They will try to sell you another. Lots of my friends are having problems with the LG. After the signal drops the phones starts turning itself of then they dont work at all. I received mine new in mid august it is now completely dead. 3 refuse to change it. last time it went for repair i, like many others got Three's standard letter saying the phone was beyond repair, but was not covered by the manafacturers 12 month guarantee as they felt it could have been dropped or moisture could have got into it. You then are asked to buy another phone. The amount of poeple that have received this letter when they are 8 or nine months into contract is amazing. In conclusion the LG is great for the first few months then it starts giong very wrong. You are hours without a signal, days without a phone. Last year I spent over 50 pounds ringing Three and being transferred to their call centre in India. Average wait to speak to someone is 10 mins another ten mins explaining problem. You get little or no support from three. If your phone breaks after 8 months + . You are left with nothing. LG need to improve the handsets, Three really need to improve or customers will leave in droves.

In 5 months of owning an LG 3 phone I have had 4 replacements and am in the middle of my 5th replacement!

I have had trouble with signal or lack of signal.

Software crashes losing all my pics and numbers.

Not being able to upload pics to my pc and low battery life..

I would say don't bother it looks nice but works as much as a chocolate fire gaurd!!!!

When I bought the LG U8110 my eyes lit up at the quality and excellent colour that just stays with your eyes for ages.

I recommend it to any careful mobile phone owner.

I purchased my LG U8110 almost a year ago now. Within this year the phone has turned the language to German, without my help I just turned it on one morning and it was in German asking for a pin number(or at least this is what I think it was asking!). Then I had a letter from 3 saying the batteries have been blowing up and I need to send mine back to 3. Now my phone when not being used turns really hot, and by hot I mean boiling, and turns itself off. I never have good network coverage and the camera isn't very good either. What's the point in having a phone with a camera if you cannot put the pictures you have taken onto the computer to print them??

my previous mobile phone was a GX10i, I had it for a very long time and was very happy with it. When it finally failed me I looked for something similar but with knobs on. And here it is, the LG U8110, I have had it for a week now and I am very impressed. Right from the start it is user friendly, all the menus are number to speed things up and everything is where you would expect. The keys are nice and large making texts quick and easy. The quality of the video and camea is superb, not the best on the market but still great. On the whole the build quality is good, although the phone does scratch easily on the sides. I wasn't too keen on three as a network and wanted to keep my old number so I got it unlocked for Vodafone, the reception beats my Dad's GX30. Overall this phone is fantastic, too many features to mention, best phone I have ever used!

I like a lot of things about this LG phone as mentioned above plus other features that I don't have time to mention in detail.

I live in London and reception has not yet been a problem for me at all.

There are a few things I do not like about it most importantly the low earpiece voice. Even on maximum, you can hardly hear the other person if you are talking on a noisy street. This is so much annoying.

The other few things I do not like is due to the "3" pre-settings:

-Few fixed items in the "Quick Menu" that you can not change

-No flexibility in Call Diversion options e.g: number of rings before call diversion...etc

-No access to other wap sites apart from 3 wap services

Although many have slated the LG U8110 mobile phones battery life I dont think its bad at all. I like the look of the phone and it is very easy to use, it sounds good too. basically if your not interested in mp3 playing or being able to use wap for anything other than 3 related sites then this phone is good, not great but after my previous phone, a nokia 3200, it seemed like the best thing since sliced bread! I would definately recommend it.
