Bad points:

I could not get this phone to connect to the pc via USB with the damn software. It was infuriating! Gave up in the end. And the keys are too hard to press.

And the phone is soooo slow. After taking a photo with the camera - you have to wait like 30 seconds before you get the option to save or delete it - utterly ridiculous!

Worst thing about is when you write SMS text messages - if you want to insert a number in the middle of a text message, you cant just hold the number (like most phones and my last LG phone) you have to scroll through EVERY character on that button before the number comes up! How stupid. And pressing OK after reading a message, comes up with option to delete, when it should come up Reply.

Update: I think I just figured out the PC Sync software.
It doesn't so much sync as it allows you to import/export data.
This nonetheless is a vast improvement on my past situation.
I'm much happier now.

Hey Brandon,
Happy Nu Year.
My complaints about the phone are as follows:
1. PC Sync software that came with the phone is utter crap. I can't get the software to actually recognize the phone via a USB connection, which is totally stupid.
It might be a problem with the provided USB driver though. I'm looking into that.
2. The Battery life is a bit on the weak side
3. The music volume is too low.
4. Too many steps involved when sending a text message or connecting to a bluetooth device...at least in my opinion.

But nothing is perfect and I do love this phone. I just think the developers could have been a bit smarter with the OS in general.
The keypad is good. A bit stiff, but I'm not a hardcore texter, so I'm okay with it.
The UI is a bit slow and there's no FM radio, I'm afraid.

about the battery life: unless i have missunderstood the lge.com page it should come bundled with a extended battery (kinda like what some of the samsung phones did/do).

can someone confirm or deny this?

I got this phone for a week now, the down side of this phone is the battery, I listen to mp3 for an hour a day and talk on the phone for about 20 mins, the battery couldn't last for a day, I had to carry two batteries everyday to work. The other problem is the mp3 volume, is not loud enough even if turn to the loudest.

hi there Phonepersonality,
this phone will be available in my area in 1-2 weeks, i've been eyeing it for a long time now. I appreciate it if you could answer some questions i have.

1) hows the keypad like, is it responsive, tactile, hard??
2) some website says the flip closes a bit too tightly, does it close as well as razr v3?
3) speed of the user interface,... how quick does the screen response to a key press.
4) fm radio?
5) any complaints you have for the phone,..

I just got this phone.
Mine came in a gray executive box and has an attached LG bluetooth headset. Also black. I aready us the A/x Bluespoon headset, so its likely i won't be using the headset much if at all...but its still a very nice touch.
Now, I currently have the the following phones:

1. i-mate SP3i
2. Sony Ericsson k608i
3. Motorola RAZR V3

and at some point I've owned phones ranging from the Siemens CF62 to Sony Ericssons P800 and P900 phones.
(What can I say? I love phones)

So believe me when I say I know what I'm talking about. This phone is gorgeous!!!
Its small, sleek and packed with some really nice features.
I've only tested just a few of its features as it is charging, but I can tell this one is a keeper.

i just bought this phone today and the features are great. the only downside is that the keypad is very hard and takes quite a bit to get used to. sometimes you have to use your nails to press down on it but other than that, this phone seems to be quite good. the camera is also very clear which is a great plus. I'd recommend this to anybody who mightn't be able to afford the new motorola v3x. its got nearly the same if not more as the v3x.

Listen...I hate to be critical.
But PLEASE could you take the time to proof-read your posts before you send them off???
I'm mean, honestly...PUH-LEEZE!!!
Does anyone even have a clue what this "Celine" person is talking about? Because I don't.
What are you, like 4 years old?
Geez!!!
OH, btw...I bought a P7200 last week and it should be delivered tomorrow (I hope).
If I'm overwhelmed...I'll post a short, READABLE review.
Thanks and everyone have a fantastic holiday.

Can anyone say for sure..that this phone does or for that mater dosen't have EDGE.... I found certain pages that claim that it has....while I've also found pages wich neglect to mention it at all...

GSMArena clims that the phone dosen't have EDGE !?!?

Can anyone help me make heads or tails of this little predicament... ;)

While we are on the subject how is the java performance of the phone.... been trying to figure out that aswell....any reviews or tests that might shed light on the subject?? :D

Many thanks in advance..!!!

Cheers
Denis
