LG Thrive review (2014)

Posted: Jan 14, 2014, 6:22 PM

Phone owned for more than a year

The LG Thrive is overall a really great smartphone. Besides the tiny screen and semi-poor camera, there is no phone in its category that beats it. If you are looking for a side device to play media or browse the web, definitely check out the LG Thrive.

LOVE IT!

Phone owned for less than a month

I love this phone. Got it at Radioshack for $129 after having the at&t Avail for two weeks. Didn't like so I exchanged for the LG thrive. I am loving it and already seeing a big difference. It has everything I need and the $50 unlimited plan covers everything unlimited uncluding the data. I have great reception and already using my wifi because of where I live and also have used the navigation. Love, love it.

Great phone/ help me save money with Skype

Edited: Nov 25, 2011, 1:00 AM

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I recently bought this phone to replace my old blackberry...
I was satisfied with it since the first day I started to use it...
All the applications work very well... I also use it to make unlimited call all over USA and Canada with "Skype" for only $2.99 per month including my "Caller ID". And this makes me save a lot of money on phone call...:)
If you wanna do the same as me all you have to do is to download the Skype application on android market, then purchase a subscription on Skype then you'll be free to call....
One thing I don't like with this phone is the camera...
It doesn't have any key for the camera... as a result, I'm having difficulties to take picture of myself..:(
After that this is a great phone for the price... :)
