LG 1500 Great

Overall Rating:

By: Robert Bitteck on Tuesday, October 17, 2006
From: Roseville, CA (United States)
Experience: 18 Months
Pros: Small easy to use.Easy to learn and navigate

Cons: None

Summary: I like the LG 1500 its compact, flip open to answer. The view screen is just about the right size. All of the functions are fairly easy to learn how to use. The charger is small. It's an all around cheap decent phone. Eventualy I would upgrade to a up to date LG model. LG is a good brand.

LG C1500 cell phone review

Overall Rating:
4.2 out of 5
By: Debbie Campbell on Sunday, October 08, 2006
From: Cana, VA (United States)
Experience: 2 Months
Pros: small compact size
MP3 ringtones
voice dialing
address book
game downloads

Cons: need recharging to often

Summary: I am fairly satisified with this cell phone. I like the small compact size that makes it easy to keep in my pocket. It lets me use MP3 files for my ringtone. And I can download games. The only thing that I don't like is that it needs recharging to often. But then again I do talk on it often. I would give it a B+

LG C1500 is a horrible phone.

Overall Rating:
1.8 out of 5
By: Tee Jay on Tuesday, September 12, 2006
From: Birmingham, AL (United States)
Experience: 5 Months
Pros: It's easy to use, very small.

Cons: First off, the battery usually only lasts a day on a full charge. I've been getting weird disconnects and freezes caused by the phone. The ringtones are horrible out of the box, so are the graphics. Speakerphone is weak, in order to use it effectively, I have to hold it next to my ear, so not much use at all out of that.

Summary: I would not recommend this phone to anyone, if you are thinking of this phone, definitely go elsewhere.
