Pro: Design and key layout.
Con: Everything else.
My old Nokia finally died. As a replacement I got this one (LG C1500)I loved my old nokia but why did I have to get this one!?
My L...G was new in Jan. 06. It worked fine and had good reception for about two months...and then it started.
The battery life is dismal! If you leave it on overnight plan on recharging it the next evening. This phone will drop 99% of your calls, it just starts rebooting or going crazy or something. You cant use it for about five minutes. It will just keep telling you that it is "reading the card".
The signal reception is horrible, I have been in large cities and unable to get a useable cell, the signal fades in and out like I am calling from the Arabian desert -vs- next to a cell tower.
It got so bad that I could not even call out anymore. It just kept telling me that the "user is busy" as I tried to call my house phone which was right beside me.
When I took this phone back to get a different make the cingular lady just laughed anad said "yeah, we get those back all the time, yours is the second today"
In short shell out the money for a better phone or you will be sorry!
I hated this phone and will never even consider LG again!. What a hunk of junk!!!!!
