phone suited for the right person

Reviewer: courtney90 on Sat Nov 03, 2007

I bought my Lg Mint chocolate a little less than a month ago. Considering that im a teenager, texting and music was a plus, along with the bright colors. i was a little let down when i got this phone though. i like the menus and the navigation and its features. However i do not like how the top buttons are touch sensitive because of how i hold my phone when texting, i always seem to hit the "call" button which ALSO works as the "send" button for texting therefore sending an unfinished text. To stop the text i have to find the end key on the side. this is somewhat IRRITATING to me because on a normal phone im used to the send and end key being right in front of me. Sometimes im just not fast enough or even thinking to realize that "DUH its on the side" and i keep hittin the clear button which does nothing. So moving on,... ive dropped my phone several times becuase it slides open too easily when takin it out of my pockets and it kinda likes to "jump" out of my hand icon_sad.gif its not very durable.. but im rough with all my items anyway. The phone takes a Micro SD memory card which has created issues with both my phone and computer. my computer is having issues reading it and when i finally got music on it and used it with my phone, my phone was giving me errors with some songs saying that the file was not supported or was not there. it would sometimes play my songs then it would completely STOP like midway through. the keys are either too touch sensitive or NOT sensitive enough. the phone sometimes lags and its just a pain in the butt. when i was lookin for a new phone i wanted something attractive, large in memory for music, good sound quality, and quietter buttons to text with compared to my last phone. the sound is great i think, but i do not like how the speaker is in the back so when im holding my phone listening to music it tends to get covered. i think they should have placed the speakers on the side like the Lg VX8100. The camera i must say is pretty decent. Some people say its crappy, but given that one is KNOWLEGDEABLE about the phone you learn to play with the settings and what works for you. I've read that some people are complaining about features that the phone does NOT have and i just wanna let you know.. The phone does indeed have speakerphone, though only accessable when in a call and to use it you must hit the camera key. the way the phone slides open and shut just doesnt seem safe for me... being that it will probably be the first to break. its very flimsy. My boyfriend has the new chocolates the lg Vx8550 and id recommend that over the 8500. This phone is easily dented and scratched. It looks like its been through more hell in one month than my old phone has in 2 years.

but if your lookin for something cute and just use it for music, its not too bad. If your careful with your phone and not be so quick to yank it for use its quite dependable. Its one of those if u dont mess with it, u have less problems

One more thing. the battery life. what can u say. where do i begin? i charge my phone at night and take it off when its done. i spend one day just doing my usual texting and what not, and i cant go more than 2 days without my phone dying. its very short lived. if u must get this phone, id recommend a charger and a car charger as well just in case.

One feature that i do like alot, is the Song ID. Some people were a bit disappointed by the misleading commerical that advertised "just one click away" from gettin the song. when actually ithe song playing has to be mostly audiable near the speaker and takes approximately 30-45 seconds to retrieve song info. i'd say 8 times outta 10 it can identify the song.

I think another feature most people would like are the end call options. You can set it to either slide down to end call or to actually press the end key. for me personally, i like the slide down to end call because by then when the keys are inactive is goes on key lock so then i have to not only UNLOCK the keys but then i have to end the call. Sliding down is much faster and easier. i really do NOT like the inconvenient location of the important end key.

last but not least, with the music features, you can set it to an alarm. which ive yet to do. You can set the phone to music mode only which i dont recommend if you're a social person, because it does just that, it disables the wireless connection meaning No texts, No calls -- nothing, just simply music playing. i prefer to have that music only mode off and it minimizes the player and the song info shows on the screen but u can still text and do watever you'd like.

Its like any other phone, it has its pros and cons. its just a matter of if you're willing to deal with it.

if you do indeed get this, i'd HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend gettin insurance, ESPECIALLY if you get it for your teenagers. you just never know!

Mint Chocolate Is Pretty Good

Reviewer: BlueDaisy on Fri Sep 14, 2007

I have had the Mint Chocolate for about one month, and I am already on my second phone. The phone started to shut itself off when I would send or read text messages, and sometimes the messages I would try to send wouldn't go through. Anyway, got the replacement and so far everything seems to be fine, although I am starting to wonder if the battery isn't holding a charge for very long. Otherwise, I love the color and design. I had to get used to the touch pad, but that was expected since I researched the phone before buying it. The speakerphone is a little annoying since you can't turn it on unless you are already in a call. I don't use the phone for V Cast or as an MP3 player, so as just a phone, not bad overall--hopefully the phone won't have another malfunction!
