    I've had this phone for 3.5 years and I finally have replaced it today.

    First of all : This phone on stock rom is laggy as hell and you can't do anything to fix it. LG put way to heavy skin on top of that weak single core 1GHz processor. Your only way for fixing this issue is by rooting and installing custom rom.
    After a lot of testing and changing roms I would recommend : SlimBean 4.1.2
    Link to ROM and instructions :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282245
    It's lightweight - only ~90 MB compared to other roms( 200+ MB)
    On this rom you can overclock ( and you should ) cpu on 1.3 GHz and you can also do some other kernel stuff that will improve it's performance. In order to keep this phone lag free on this rom you need to have at least 60 MB of RAM ALWAYS free. ( You can check RAM in Apps - Running and you should see free RAM ). Also on SlimBean 4.1.2 camera has focus issues and to resolve you need to install an updated kernel ( link to it should be on the same page I've had left )
    Also you should stay away from heavy apps like : twitter, google chrome, facebook, messnger ( facebook)
    I recommend installing : Facebook Lite ( for FB and messages), Opera Lite for browsing ( in case of needing a more powerful browser the built in one should be enough) and Instagram is light app so you can use it too.

    Now general opinion of the phone
    - Screen : is okay, good enough for it's job, barely enough bright to be used in direct sunlight(but it's doable ), view angles are fine
    - Battery : should be good enough for a day ( if you install rom I linked before - you should set performance mode to SmartAssV2 - it uses almost no battery while on standby ! )
    - Performance : 1 GHz singlecore is dated and don't expect too much from it - basic tasks should be just fine but anything heavier i.e. Gaming is a no go ( some light games are fine, thou )
    - Design : It's beautiful phone. It's slim and light and tough( I've dropped it from around 1.5m and nothing happened to it - maybe just luck, thou)
    - Storage : 4 GB ( ~ 2GB for user ) - you need an SD Card, period.
    - Volume/Sound : it's okay, not too loud - and quality is decent/good for daily use. Headphones/Earbuds work without any problems.
    - Camera : Back -it gets the job done, low light is quite bad and on good light is okay, as I said it gets the job done.
    Front - VGA quality, fine at good lighting but I would expect too much from it.
    - Call quality : it's good. BUT this phone ( or at least my unit ) can lose 3G (and at the same time not switch to 2G) and your left without phone signal - BUT keep in mind that - issue with signal and connectivity only occurred in MY HOUSE - which means that my house probably has bad 3G signal ( when I switch my phone manually to 2G - it never dropped a signal nor connection ) -> this is only to keep in mind if you have bad signal at your home/work.

    And that's it. I think I've said everything important about this phone. Good luck ya all folks ^^

          This phone is like a brick. you can't do anything with it, but it's not gonna break unless you really try to.

                      I just recently had this phone after having it fixed at a repairshop. It's a good phone although sometimes it gets so slow especially when playing games and also when browsing the internet. I have no issues with that. My problem is that I dont know how to move the applications unto the SD card. Can someone please teach me how to move apps to SD card? Please, I really need to know how to do it. Thanks!

                        Plz Lg company, not with bad intent bt jst a matter of reality, exit phone manufacturing and deals. You offer very little on table...at this climax of technology u still produce and sell at high price a 512Mb ram Lg L7 with 5mp that I pity most. Poor of u...the G3 and G2 Lg that u brag of right now are over priced even thou they dnt match the standards of their calibre. Tecno Company by introducing Phantom C5 av supersede u.

                                  I've had this phone for over 2 years now and it lags like hell. It started lagging from the second I bought it and it got even worse with the years. Sometimes when someone calls me I have to wait 10 second, because this phone can't load it's own screen. Also everything on this phone crashes (even the phone itself, like it gives out a message like "Windows phone has stopped working" or "Home as stopped working") and sometimes it doesn't want to load its keyboard. Also the phone takes about 5 minutes to turn on and off again. The only good thing about this phone is the camera, which has a great quality. But in the end I regret buying this phone, should have gone for Lumia 520.
