LG Thrive User Reviews

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.

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.

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... :)

OK, so i have this phone and love it.
i hate how its the same exact phone as the lg optimus from metropcs but its a good phone.
i guess i love it so much cause i had the huawei ascend.
anyways im posting this because the specs does not have all the listings. this phone has exactly everything the lg optimus has from metropcs.
so for anyone else interested. it has more stuff then stuff listed in specs.
and keep in mind the lg optimus from metro runs on 1x. with att you get 3g.
3g is faster and you can surf the web while on the phone talking to another party.

bought the phone almost 3 months ago, i usualy go through phones every 2 months. at first i figured the phone would break the first time i droped it but ive droped it 200 times im sure and its not broken yet. i love this phone in every way accept the main board memory is low. but besides that i love the phone.

This is my first smartphone, and it is amazing! The phone design is great, and the features are great as well! I bought it a week ago from an AT&T retailer, and found the price to be pretty great for a smartphone(Only $179). It also came with a 2gb SD card(which I don't need, because I already have a 4gb SD card) which was great. One thing I liked the most was the fact that it has WiFi, and a browser. I don't have a data plan(waste of money), so this comes in handy when I want to download apps. The only downside is the low amount of memory that is in the phone(160 MB), because some of the apps can't be moved to the SD card. Which means, I can't have that many apps on the phone. :( Besides that, it is a good phone!

Bought this prepaid GoPhone to replace my old feature phone that broke cuz I didnt want to pay so much for contract phone... I swapped the sim card and it was ready to go... I just fell in love instantly, from a old fashioned feature phone to this, Android 2.2.1 its a big upgrade for me... The HVGA capacitive touchscreen combined with the 600 Mhz processor, very responsive, NO sluggishness whatsoever. OVERALL is worth the price!

this phone is amazing. the lg thrive is atts first android go phone but is better than many contract android phones. for the price of this phone its a steal. the phones made excellent lg and att did great. the call quality is great. this is a very good phone on the very best network for a very cheap price

I bought this to replace a broken Blackberry because I didn't want to play $400-500 to ATT for a phone in between contracts. Just swapped out the sim and I now I have a far superior phone. It runs Android 2.2.1 so it's very responsive even with a 600 Mhz processor. The screen is not as good as an iPhone4 or Atrix or Captivate, but it's 1/4 the price.

This phone will hold is value because it's so cheap. If you take good care of it with a decent case and screen protector, you will definitely be able to resell it for over $100 next year and trade up to a better model. Smart phones are like computers, you will always be able to get cheaper and better every year.
