LG VX-8600 user review

Cons: Ringers aren't loud enough (I wouldn't use the alarm clock to save my life)... and there is no flash on the camera (but I've taken pictures in even the darkest places with the night mode and can still see everything...)

Summary: I've been through about twenty cell phones in the past 10 years, I'm usually reckless with them. I've lost them to leaving them on the roof of cars, drowning them in the toilet, I've snapped the head off of one of my flip phones, just plain loosing them. My LG VX-8600 will never be a victim to any of these unfortunate events... I could be drowning at sea somewhere and I would be treading water with one hand and holding my phone up to save it from the water with the other... I'm serious. I've had it for about five months now. It is recently showing signs of wear and tear, but it's only left my side maybe twice in those months. I fell asleep with the MP3 player going once for about 7 hours and when I woke up not only was it still playing but it had over half the battery power left. It holds up to 100 texts in the inbox, for those of us who don't like to delete, and I have over 70 songs downloaded onto my SD card, so 70 of my favorite songs are with me at all times. I've watched TV on it, the visual is great. I am on my yahoo messenger on it. And if that's not enough proof that this is a great phone, I usually don't do product reviews for anything, but I stumbled accross this page, looking for an icon guide to find out what my son turned on and had to fill this out. This phone will be cherished!!! Hey never mind about that... I just found the icon guide on the phone... now I really don't have to find that manual!!! Yippeee!!
