PROS:

Durable ( I have left this phone outside in the rain, dropped it, I have a two year old so she gets a hold of it a lot so I definately... More

This phone, has been put through just about everything, i threw it across my room when i was mad, threw it on the ground serveral times when i was mad. By far the greatest phone. The only thing wrong was it started to heat up and wouldn't hold the charge, but thats more than likely my fault. Definitely... More

Just finished a 2 year term with this phone, and was very satisified with it. Never had to send it in, and the battery is still running pretty stong.
The dual flip feature is great for texting, as well as for those who like to flip open to talk. User interface and navigation are simple and easy to... More

I love this phone i have had very few problems with it. In a time when everyone is using iphones/blackberrys i find this phone to be more funcutional then them for day to day use without all the expensive black berry service plan fees. Great for texting, and it has a reasonable browser aswell

I got so attached to this phone! i love it so much, ive gone through 2 of them cause my first one was so water damaged. but my friend gave me hers so i just transfered it to my contract. It doesn't work for me anymore though, somethign in the phone that lets the battery charge is broken. So, i cant... More

I have to say I really like this phone. Opposite to what some people said about dropping it, i've dropped it a good few times and all that happens was the battery would pop out.

I got my phone at the end on june 2008 and about 10 months after i got it ive had nothing but problems with it. I have sent it out 5 times to get fixed and im still having problems. The outside screen was inside and one point and time so i shut down my phone and restarted it and than i noticed my screen... More

Okay. I've got a problem here. Actually, I've got two.
First problem:
I've been wanting to download music on my phone for a while now, but I can't figure out how to. I want to do this through the computer, so it wont cost me. So, here's my question: How the hell do you do it?!?... More

Lol. I have been reading others reviews on this.. I have the same phone. I had it for almost a year now. I dropped it a few million times, and the battery popped out everytime. My phone is scratched up, as well as my battery. Not once did I need to send it out for repair, or get a new battery. It does... More

I've had this phone for 18 months and have generally been satisfied. I have enjoyed having the ability to flip it to a keyboard for text messaging. Recently the phone has begun to turn it self off, frequently, for no good reason. It must be some sort of planned obsolesence. It would be nice... More

I had purchased 2 of those phone as soon as they hit the market here in Canada and one is still in use to this day. The phone can take a beating in my opinion and still out perform most major competitors phones easily. I still have the device after switching to a Palm Treo as I would never get rid of... More

I have the LG rumour, but i kinda like the double filp, and i think its so cool. but the rumour is really good for texting. what to do,

please help!

Pro: Clear pics/video

Con: Keyboard, microSD capacity low

Verizon sold me a dud of a phone! The microSD card can only be max 2GB, and nowhere in the specs or manuals doees it tell you that. Went out and wasted $35 on a 4GB card for nothing. Doesn't play video as promised either. Use of the keyboard... More

Pro: slim

Con: breaks easily

I love my phone, but its was in my pocket and i managed to bump something, now u can't read the front screen and i hate that , but it was my fault. I really like this phone especially because every letter has its own key.

Pro: it has a big screen, pic takens good,skinny

Con: its front screen flashes yellow when the buttons are on lock and if you barley push the audio buttons, takes a bit to get used to texting,sometimes it screws up your mesesges,you got to take a big enough pic to fit both the screen in landscape and... More
