the battery just sucks. i am disappointed. the fone freezes for no reasonable cause then more irritating, is the fact that it would at times keep just swich itself off as you try switching it on time and again. I wish to advise the makers to also improve on its looks coz within no time the fone looks very old

This phone is a gigantic piece of C R A P!!!

Keeps freezing all the time, then turns it self off -

turns on then back off again. takes loads of times before it actually works right.

battery life lasts 1 day only..

freezes when half way through texting.

Sends my text messages straight to inbox without showing i have a message on beeping when get a text.

Not a lot of memory either

as i said a C R A P phone avoid at all costs.

Well, i think so that this phone with his menu is perfect, and designe,,,but, nothing is perfect. Little bit slow software knows to drive me crazy, and little bit batery...
From time to time, it just turn of, and dont want to turn on... why? I dont know. Its new phone.
I payed it only 90 euros...
Well, for that money, this phone is great...

It's a good phone, apart from the battery life. I don't know where the guy below bought his memory card from but you can get a 1GB micro SD card from ebuyer.com for less than £10 .....

I really dont understand you guys... I have this phone and it is awesome!! I love it! The battery life is two days with heavy texting, email, and calls! I use bluetooth also...My battery is excellent, I really dont get what you are talkin about! The phone never misses messages or anything.. Maybe you guys just dont know what you are doing...

This is a very good looking phone but the battery is horrible. I have this pohone for little over 6 months and it looks like I have it for 2 years (scratched and old looking). I STRONGLY NOT RECOMMEND this phone espeicall to people that travel frequently because battery will not last for one whole day.

My mum brought me this phone for christmas 2006.we bought it a few weeks earlyer but never used it..we did check to make sure it works mind you. christmas day and the phone wudnt work..which caused loads of upset.
from then on ive had trouble with it..

30 of dec 2006 i took the handset back from where i bought it and they gave me a new model of this fone.

i had high hopes for this phone.but after about 2 months i had all problems again see below

* freezes constanstly
*you have too go too inbox too get messages.
*constantly getting messages seyn missed call when i had signal
*signal poor when sending messages
*when have certain rings for ppl it changes the settings by itself
*beeps when trying too switch on.
*charging isnt long enough too get me thru a long nite.

this week i shall b taking this fone back.
i just want too tell people out there please dont go down the road of buying this phone its a waste of money and time and just not worth the hassle.

does anybody now if the lg chocolate is a gd fone ?? reply asap plz many thanks xxxx
