LG 8575 Samba - User Reviews

  • I have this phone and...i really dislike it. It's pretty heavy. And the camera sucks.

  • It doesn't have a front-facing camera, so I'm afraid that's impossible.

  • I have had this phone for awhile and can't figure out if I can take a picture of myself. If you have the screen in front of you, you can't see yourself. Is there a way to change the screen so you can see yourself and then take a picture? Thanks.

  • plez mention price to handsat becz handsat deler and lg care gvn not propar replay.both proce is diffrant so

  • I would have to say that it's not a bad phone it's pretty good in my opinion. Besides the fact that people with larger fingers may have some trouble with the touch screen but if you calibrate it properly you will have minimal problems. I personally have pretty big fingers and I work it just fine the only problem I really have with the touch screen is the top left back button on the screen itself it's a tad bit difficult to hit all the time but I assume that is why they have an actual back button on the phone itself. I'd say just have some patients and you should be able to get the hang of it.

  • I would have to agree it's not really that bad of a phone i would complain a bit if i had actually spent money on it but only because of the fact that it tends to be a bit glitchy with the touch screen if you have big fingers... other than that it's not a bad phone

  • it is a inbuilt feature(CDMA).There is no process to use this as a gsm

  • if i want to use gsm. with this handset so what's process pls..

  • I actually love this phone. The people that don't like it just dont know how to work it right or are 35+ or just have big clumsy fingers. It takes sometime getting used to it but it is actually a really good phone.

  • the longer I have the phone the more i dislike it. the lockscreen is irretatingvit locks while on a call or texting and the camera takes almost a minute to save the picture only to tell me that it failed urrghh. the touchscreen is way to touchy it jumps from small to larger and klicks on things u don't want to klick .when recieving a call u have to first unlock and that can cause to hang up on the caller. Dislike not recomenting this phone at all.

  • I so glad I got this phone for free. The touchscreen sucks and the internet is the slowest i very seen on a phone even on a 3g network.
