this phone is a very fast and smooth phone, cant really fault it to be honest, super cheap and still runs better the an iphone... if you are thinking about getting one you should! i got my one for $99aud which is very cheap :) conclusion: this phone is bang for your buck
I had this phone and it keep going off and on when u try using it only thing i like was battery life it to low on storage and stuff i like kyocera hydro life better please look into it it does not come with what it says Or look into a different Lg phone
This phone packs a lot of punch for the money. It is fast, holds many apps, easy to use and good looking. I was surprised when I started using this phone. I like being able to remove system apps with a carrier provided feature. I take pictures for my job with this phone and the quality is great. I would recommend this phone.
Great phone I did drop and am getting a new one. But while I had it, it was amazing and I was on page plus so service and texting was great internet and music and even video were great. Sure I would've wanted a bigger screen but hey I'm used to it so yea. I really recomend this phone to anyone.
I have owned this phone from 11-19-2013, well not the one I'm currently holding because the one I'm holding is phone #5 of the very same make and model, from the same provider. I have had multiple issues with this phone. The phone has issues downloading apps, reading the sd card, and every one of them overheats just reading the sd card, which I suppose is to be expected when it takes 10min to 2 hours to read the tiny 4gig card. I have had to master reset every phone. I have had to format the BRAND NEW SD CARD 5 times now. I have had to deal with a phone that. with full signal and 4g service, still decides it's not going to connect or download a thing. The one and only ALMOST functioning model of the phone that I received had a camera defect and had to be returned....I mean c'mon folks, you don't go to a restaurant and pay for a 3 course meal to get water and an appetizer. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PHONE!!! It's built tough, but the rest of it just bites the big one.
This phone is great for people who love high end phones yet are not concerned about apperance the speed of the phone is amazing the picture,screen,graphics are somthing else considering it a 100 dollar phone the biggest down fall witch im sure u guesst it is storage fyi this is fixable look up on youtube
The best phone for its price; the reception is great, the screen brightness is super nice, the battery last a very long time. Another great feature its is size; not bulky but just the right dimensions make it looks very professional. Comparing this phone to my previous one is just unfair as this one surpass all my expectations.
To many buttons or selections have to be made to optain goal. To many defaults that I would like to change but cannot. Causing issues with network voicemail. This issue was suppose to be addressed with new update but it was not.
I just picked one of these up to see what its made of and Honestly it should cost $250 and is as good in Hardware as the Samsung Galaxy S2 and Victory easily. Actually it runs circles around the Samsung S3 MINI @ $249 but its not unlocked (Big advantage there). I agree with user below.
It also specs in most areas just like the Iphone 4S too but you get more features and PRICE LOL!!!!!!!
OK so you get a great performer with Huge battery and lots of good features just like Samsung Touchwiz but I don't really like the White Interface in Settings (BIG Deal). ONLY bad is small user rom of 1.2gig.
Has a stronger black level than my Nexus 4 but I miss the Auto Brightness. But thats it so far. Buy it!!
Using Performance Benchmarks lets you see EXACTLY where these cells fit in the power and performance range. You can download the Passmark Test from Google Play yourself and run several for an average but make sure all open Apps are closed and reboot once. Then about 15 to 100 people submit these Benchmarks for every phone around and the guys Average them out so they are right on. Individual tests for CPU, Disk and Memory writes, with 2D & 3D Video comprise the OVERALL Passmark System Performance.

I've watched and read quite a few reviews of this phone. For some reason there is not too much good things said about this phone. Reviewers act like they paid $500 for it and trying to compare it high end phones. It's a $150 phone and there is absolutely no way it can compete with high end phones. So I think ratings are unjustified.
-It has great sharp screen, 233ppi, great colors. Not the best but really good.
-Phone runs smooth its due to 1 gig of ram and decent cpu. No crashes, no apps shutting on it's own.
-2400mah battery is made to last a day. Even in heavy uses like 5 hours of screen on time it will have some charge left. I'm not mentioning talk time because you will get plenty.
-proportionally small. It fits well in hand, I can use one hand to navigate through the entire phone, it's very thin.
-decent quality speaker, loud.
-good reception in most places.
-Ok camera that does not blow you away but gets the job done.
-Very easy to root if you are into it.
-good build quaquality, it feels really light but not cheap.
-It's one con is lack of space, after a few apps installed I only have about 700mb left, It's not a big con for me but might be a big con for others, so keep it in mind. If you root the phone you can use Link2SD to recover some space.
