LG Leon - User Reviews

  • This phone is marketed in the United States prepaid with LG Rebel LTE and LG Power. Imagine having a backup phone that is small, feels solid and is dependable when you need it. This is that phone. It will not provide you with what you want, unless what it offers is what you need. The exterior is smooth, and the back buttons are tactile. The camera quality may vary with each model, some only having 5mp and not even 8. The camera is decent and has a flash. The 4.5 inch screen is refreshing when compared to bigger phones. 480x854 seems very poor on paper, but LG made the screen sharp, bright and reflective so it looks like OLED. The headphone output is quality. The jack is pre-tuned for high mids and resolution. I was not a fan of the launcher, but I put on Apex with Kitkat look like a Moto E 1st generation. I did revert to stock launcher after that. When I found my little LG Power could be rooted with the king of root I did that and switched with the Super SU. I then installed ViPER4Android. With ViPER, sound quality can be improved for either improved bass, mids, treble, or clarity. I remember my time with the device fondly before I lost it. One day I will get another one.

  • I can understand that.

  • I can't even use a high end windows phone, I just don't like the OS and the phone being slow on top of that would make it hell

  • I didn't expect to be as bad as it was.

  • This has aged so badly

  • Ouch..that Lumia you mentioned has a snapdragon 210 so that's no surprise the performance is worse

  • The Lumia 550 is worse. The LG Leon 4G (£70) was a quick phone for me, with impressive battery life but it did warm up quite a bit. i'd give it 7/10 for my experience. The Lumia 550 performance was worse than expected and was always hot, even Notebookcheck reported the max temperature of 41 Degrees Celsius when in idle, and 45.7 when at full load. GSMArena stated that it should get 7 hours of SOT but I got 4.5 hours, charging was painfully slow, 3 hours...

  • This phone sucks so bad. I had it for about 2 years and it was horrible; no space even with a 32GB SD card (thanks android lolipop), it was ALWAYS slow, getting warm over nothing, the battery life was absolute trash, etc. I get that it's a really cheap phone, but wow it was a crappy experience.

  • Is that LG Leon Phone is 4G support or not

  • my mom is using just for facebook and whatsapp it and she is very happy with only problem is LOW memory

  • love the phone. but I think I need a memory card to increase what I put on it or update it. whi ? ch one should

  • Remove your back cover. Remove your battery It should be there

  • I'm using the LG Power, which is probably a rebrand of this phone, but they look very similar. I didn't see any SIM slots on mine unfortunately. This phone also happens to have only a 5 megapixel camera, although the flash is very nice. Compared to my Desire 510, the headphone jack has more natural treble and perhaps better positioning. The LCD on this phone is one of their best. LG did a great job getting the phone down to its price point, and I managed to get one from TracFone for $10. This is the best $10 I've ever spent. I'll root it and see how it does.

  • mmmmm i love the phone it has a strong battery and it is so amazing.

  • Im using this phone alot and when i break some "new" phone i use it :) its a bit buggy but for me its OK :) its cracked but i falled at asfhalt so i love it ;)

  • I have this phone for about 2,5 years , so I am going to tell that this phone is great. Mine screen is cracked but it fell like 100 times so it's ok. Little buggy after some time (1gb ram) and display is some time retarded , grey and won't let me control it just randomly opens apps. Cameras are sh*t. Otherwise great telephone for its price (50-80€)

  • The phone is worth its value.

  • For a small amount of money (bout 120) you would like to get s8? For it's price and year it is great, far better than competition

  • About 4.5 years old, been dropped several times, original battery still running and the only negative is small internal memory

  • This was probably the worst phone I ever owned. The wee little Snapdragon 410 isn't enough to stay up to the task, you could get better picture from a 90's CRT (this thing is only 480p), the camera is a joke as the flash gives photos an ugly bluish tint, it's only 5mp and worst of all, it can't even autofocus. I've seen phones from 2012 with cameras better than this one. Mine had problems with overheating, and the battery life, oh god don't even tell me about the battery life. If you use your phone like the average person would, well expect the LG Leon to die in about 4-5 hours. LG themselves don't make bad phones, this one was just overall crap. If you're looking for a better LG budget phone, go for the G Stylo 3+. It'll save you in the long run.

  • It's pretty decent for a phone that came out in 2015. The camera is bad, and so is the memory (8GB). But otherwise, it's decent.

  • BAD durability. BAD. After 3 drops, the digitizer stopped working.

  • it worked on 4g LTE on T-mobile in usa. but if you are in another country you got to know the spectrum frequency used by the telcom company.

  • it worked on 4g lte on T-mobile in usa. but if you are in another country you got to know the spectrum frequency used by the telcom company.

  • Yeah had and hated it but trust me other lg phones are great i have a stylo (tmobile) and its much better and its huge

  • Am very disappointed with the camera on this phone...very sub-standard. MetroPCS screwed the customers by replacing customers phones with this crappy model of LEON when the network was upgraded. this LEON model camera will not take a detailed nor properly focused image at any range...it is even worse at close ranges... it is so bad that it will not even focus to read a barcode on a supermarket box of ceral. I spoke with LG tech reps regarding this phones camera sub-standard performance...LG tech reps are very much aware of this phone defiecences and no way to improve the focuse ability even with new software upgrades...this phone is total junk...don't buy it...this is the last LG I will ever own. Even worse is the tech reps at metroPCS are very much aware of this crappy phone and metropcs will not replace it...goodbye to metropcs. just lost another long term customer.

  • I just got one and it keeps updating... Is this normal? Please answer. :)

  • Decent phone for a backup.

  • LG, Life's Good.

  • So LG maybe saying that don't drop your phones...

  • now this isnt a great phone even by '15 standards its a decent one for getting into Android phones and it does what it does best certanly even today you can do better but if you need a basic smartphone on teh cheap w/ reliability, the Leon wont disappoint. w/ the only gripe being internal storage is a bit...... Small

  • This is the best cellphone i've ever had. I use it with hymns sometimes 9 hours a day and it still works, is a very practical phone too. Thank you LG for this awesome phone and GOD Jesus bless.

  • i absolutly love this phone i mean im so bad to have a phone but this one was the first one that i really love and really resist with me its really good and duration is good the unic bad this is the frontal camara but everything else im happy whit

  • restart your phone

  • I absolutly HATE the LG Leon!! It recently broke and I just got it repaired but now the power button is stuck and its rly slow and they just rly suck!! LG, you need to step up your game!!

  • I am unable to connect with data, even though i changed APN setting and it shows 4G lte but dont know why its not working

  • Never been so happy with a phone. I have this phone for 2 years and never have a problem with it. If you want to game on this i suggest you see some videos on youtube and be amazed for the quantity of games it can run very well. Altho now i will probably recommend to look for other options because, well, things evolve and maybe there are other better options now but if you don't find any this one is a safe bet

  • no it is not.

  • The LG Leon is a weak piece of tech. While it does come in at a wallet-friendly price of $90USD, it has a bad camera, slow processor, quiet speakers, a bad screen, and a small battery. If you are considering this phone, I would suggest saving some money and buy the Moto G4 Play or the the Nexus 5X.

  • can the lg leon work in jamaica

  • I have it but when i connect to internet the phon be hot

  • I had it for a year it is so weak and the battery life is weak. Its got a nice design and loud speakers but a terrible DAC and the screen and lg's ui doesn't appeal to me

  • i have lg leon and my phone have android 6.0 (updated)

  • The metroPCS Leon has the worst camera I've ever seen on a smartphone. The main camera will not focus. Come to find out there is NO focus capability.

  • This phone is awesome. I paid $50. new with TMobile and it's solid in every way. I am upgrading the memory for $15. to 32gb cf.

  • How long does the battery last??!!!!!!

  • i love this phone i have had it for like 2 years and has never broken or got messed up.

  • no Auto Focus camera

  • Be more eloquent - apart from the battery, what do you not like about the phone? Instead of screaming, tell us with civility.

  • this phone is the worst thing existant on the planet earth !!!!!!!! don dbuy this IT IS A WASTE OF TIME IT SUCKS AND HAS THE WORST BATTERY LIFE IF YOUR READING THIS AND DONT AGREE PLEASE TELL ME OTHERWISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Google says that I don't have right iOS for VR??

  • Like, not love the phone. It's camera is just okay. When I try to use wired earbuds GoogleVoice or whatever will not stop asking me what I want to search. I've reverted to using bluetooth earbuds to avoid the issue.

  • mine works fine you just don't take care of your phone.

  • For anyone looking for a solution to this same problem download a player that will play WMA files as well as MP3 files.....Worked for me.

  • I wanted to use my phone with 3g network in my country it is 3 g .what shall I do . Imo doesn't woelsa .but it accept 2g.

  • total crap hedphone jack stoped working with no reason phone freezes when hedphones pluged in or somone calling after 3months of ose its completely broken with no fukin reason

  • Everyone says that they dropped it once and it broke. I dropped it about 30 times from 0.5m and it's in perfect condition. So, if this phone falls and breaks that means you work in a construction zone and you dropped it from 20m

  • mine, phone normal screen and touchscreen has broken and i will be grateful you can direct me to where i can get an original complete screen and touch to buy

  • Mine fell touchscreen first not working anymore :(

  • this phone can fall and not break. that's enough for me

  • am not an lg fan.i had a ks369 and it wasnt that good.then i got the leon.i must say am impressed at its performance.especially the data side of things.it works like a simple java phone like a moto v360. the camera is ok except for the front one.the network is good so is the battery.am digging this phone

  • I didn't know that phone before, but it looks lovely

  • I've had this phone for more than a year now, no problems!

  • Battry saver

  • I've had this phone for a year now and it's just one problem after the next: The data keeps turning back on by itself It keeps overheating I opened a chrome tab 5 momths ago that won't close I set it that the lights would flash when i get a message and although i turned it off it is syill flashing. Jack stop working The charging port is loose

  • I've seen this on a mass amazon for £92 with great reviews , but when I come in here it's a mixed bag, is it worth me buying ppl ?

  • I have my own LG leon and its actually fine . its almost a year already I have installed 3 game apps , facebook app , messenger app , share it app, and guitar tuna >still my phone is working fine

  • great phone,but the back button doesnt work,if it powers off i have to use someone elses back to turn it on.Other wise it is one of the most stable and quick phones i have used.

  • I have an lg leon metro pcs unlocked phone and i am trying to use the phone in india.the phone is stuck on 2g and it doesnt pick any 3g.i looked at all the settings but it still doesnt work.does anyone why this is happening

  • I own this phone for almost 1 year. And no problems so far. This phone is good for me, in exception screen size maybe. In the summer android got updated to Marshmallow version. Maybe some owners are just unlucky with their phones, when i read some of comments.

  • terrible phone owned it brand new for a month and these are the problems so far: phone sometimes thinks the battery is invalid even though its the stock one making it turn itself off audio jack no longer works terrible battery life volume on phone speaker sometimes doesnt work double tapping the screen no longer turns the screen on camera was terrible when it worked camera no longer works for no reason low storage if the back panel is missing then you cant change volume or turn it on/off notifications dont come through when they should dont buy this piece of shit

  • Did you fixed the problem because i am having it too

  • it's stuck on 2g help can't switch to 3g or 4g

  • all Lg sucks.. after a year your fons starts bootlooping and theres no way to fix by anyone except Lg. then u hav to pay a brand new one,, after a months bootloop again.. stupid LG maker.

  • Hi I'm a tween in 2016 and these days a good camera is necessary for today and I have a horibble camera and doesn't even have any storage left and I only have 5 apps! And less than 60 things in my gallery my dad won't let me buy a new phone at Christmas and I get $100 from my grandma and I already have more money saved but he said no. Ugh the struggle is real 😠😔

  • You must know which frequencies is your sim working and which version of Leon you own, let's put an example: In Venezuela the three major companies works like this Movistar: LTE 4, 3G 1900, 2G 850 >> T-Mobile=LTE, H340N=2G Movilnet: 3G 1900, 2G 850 >> T-Mobile=3G, H340N=2G Digitel: LTE 3, 3G 900, 2G 900 >> T-Mobile 2G, H340N=LTE Hope this helps

  • I have nothing downloaded on my phone but when I try to download an app, it always says "insufficient storage".

  • Try oppo neo 5 20015

  • I have had this phone for 6 months and it sucks. It is slow with everything... probably I lost 1 week of life waiting for it to load the contact list or the keyboard to type or to rotate the screen for youtube or to load Facebook or anything. Any task is difficult for this phone. 1 GB RAM and quad core CPU should be decent but it sucks it is so slow, you want to throw it 1 mile away. Maybe it should have an earlier version of Android, like Jelly Beam but with Lollypop it is so annoingly and painfuly slow!!! I got this phone brand new for free from a friend but don't buy this crap!

  • hi jut got myself an LG leon lte but there is no network ...what do i do?

  • Take off the battery for about 5 mins and put it back again. It's called hardware reset or something ... Mine works now. i have it 9 months already.

  • got my lg Leon for Christmas 2015. phone was good. by the July the touch screen had went. then it took 3 weeks to fix only for the touch screen to stop working again within 3 weeks. battery life is terrible and the phone keeps freezing. do not recommend getting this phone.and this is coming from a previous lg customer.

  • Nice low-end phone. Pros: Fast processor, good ram, decent battery life, 4G LTE, clear display. Cons: Battery life could be better, and the camera is very bad. Being the cheapest phone I could find in the market, I'm very happy with it.

  • My LG Leon Only Supported 2g Kindly Guide me to access 3g

  • My LG Leon Only Supported 2g Kindly Guide me to access 3g

  • You can change it in settings

  • it is good for use but it is saying invalid battery and shuting down automatically. can anyone give me the solutions

  • I love your phones I use to have lgl5 it lasted me for 2years it and it was stolen

  • Sucks... My phone won't charge at all.... The battery sucks... The camera sucks.. I feel embarrassed to pull this phone out.... Don't buy it thanks alot lg. :-|

  • My goodness...this phone is amazing! Lol jokes, the display is a joke, slow prossessor, no fingerprint, wtf 1 GB ram?? and 8GB user storage? Guys this is why LG has the G series

  • This phone is definitely a piece of junk! Everyone giving bad reviews about this phone is having the same problems that I am having. This is my 3rd and last LG phone. They are all junk! If it's not slow it's the battery or it's screwing up in general.My latest problem is the power button is stuck. It has been one problem after another after another after another. I will never buy another LG phone.I Advise others to do the same.

  • I m using this phone( as 2nd phone) This is phone is very stylish same like g3 , good battery, good ram , good screen color, wifi and hotspot features also available 4g LTE also work in this mobile, memory card slot also available cons => camera quality is low, internal storage 3.7(usable), no charging or notification led but every cons are acceptable because its price is very low, Thank you LG for this phone :)

  • How do i get It ?

  • I have it 8 months 40.7° with 50% screen. It over heats ! Its annoying! I updated to marshmallow 6.0. still the same (screen&batt overheats) I hope next model will fix these issues. Should i try another brand? C ' ya...

  • Has Android 6 now.

  • i love this phone

  • Camera specs are wrong: primary cam is FIXED focus, cant use as barcode scanner o scan receips only frontcam is autofocus (hilarious)...

  • Yes this phone will work great for dear old Dad. I've used WhatsApp with no problems.

  • I love this phone I've had it for i wanna say about a year and have had no problems other then space but i have a lot of music on it and alot of pics. I would recommend this phone to anyone!

  • Thanks. That's what i thought.

  • If your phone is getting hot and losing battery for no reason, it is downloading/uploading or doing something in the background. Free apps aren't really free. You get to use the app, while they use your phone as they see fit. Worst offenders...Facebook and Snap Chat. Try deleting your uploaded apps, (delete from the application manager), and see if it stops. If not, you will need to do a factory reset to get rid of the virus your phone has contracted. If it is glitching all the time, you have a virus or too much stuff, (apps, pics, music, emails and/or texts), on the phone, or both. Check your storage and see if you are at capacity. If so, take some things off of your phone. Getting an SD card and moving apps, pics, music to your SD card will help alleviate the lack of storage. Your smart phone is like a mini computer and needs to be treated as such. They get viruses, they get slow and need cleaning when they are older, and they will glitch, if you have bogged them down with 100s of emails, texts and 27 game apps. A lot of this is common sense. At this point I would suggest removing all downloaded apps, download all pics to your computer, get rid of all unneeded texts and emails. See if that helps. If not, do a factory reset on the phone. If you don't know how, take it to your provider. Then reintroduce your downloaded apps slowly. Give it a couple of days to see if it is glitching, getting hot, etc. Don't keep emails/text unless absolutely necessary, and regularly download your photos to a computer so you don't lose them in some sort of accident, like a lost/broken/water damaged phone. Don't keep pics that aren't important to you, as it just eats your storage, and only download a game or two at a time. Once you lose interest in a game or app, delete it, so it is not taking up space on your phone.

  • The LG Leon is a very good phone for the price point. 8 MP camera, 1 GB RAM, 8 GB of ROM and gesture features? You would be hard pressed to find something in that price range, with those features. My boyfriend switched out his Samsung S4 Mini for this and has never been sorry. He has had his for 6 months, got it used and loves it.

  • Hi. Sorry if I write wrong, my native language its spanish. I wanna buy this phone (lg leon) for my dad. That means He only will use it for taking picture, making calls and using whatsapp. It will performance ok? I mean it will be enough for him. Thanks!

  • The phone is completely fine for me. Can't understand all the negative reviews. Having it for six months by now and no trouble at all. It's fast enough and after preventing apps from starting themselves battery lasts for two to three days. Internal 4GB are a bit small though. Reckon if smartphones don't play the main role in your life, this phone will do...

  • This phone had horrible battery life, low RAM, and has very low storage! 20 seconds ago I looked at the percentage it said 81% I look again as i'm typing this and now it's at 79% WTF!

  • Apparently you don't have the same phone because I've had mine for 5 months and non of that even compares to mine. Camera works good for 5mp, decent steadycam, speaker is loud and clear. Dunno if you think $60 should get you something made of gold but it's pretty decent for what it is. Not a single issue thus far.

  • Amazing, good quality phone with a great camera.

  • At first it works perfectly fine, but after a while it loses charge very easily and constantly shuts off for hours and can't be turned back on.

  • It is the worst phone I have ever had.The camera all of sudden stopped working. It overheats. Constantly needs charging. Thats just a few things.But the worst is that it will up and shutoff and it takes several hours to come back up.Not good. Very unreliable.

  • -The camera is horrible, bordering on unusable. It doesn't focus well and you have to keep your hands completely still to take pictures when the light isn't perfectly bright. -Low speakerphone volume. You still have to hold the phone up next to your ear to hear. -Reasonably fast. I don't get lag when surfing the internet or multitasking. If you don't use the camera often, this phone could be okay based on the price. At least it's fast.

  • ....It seems that you cant use an OTG cable with it either

  • no, no, no. get out of here. dude, the battery wastes even if you don't use it!

  • it doesnt even have marshmellow!!! it has lollipop. i have this phone! it not that great! the battery life really sucks, also either way if u replace the battery or charge it and take out the plug after its 100% it sucks. it even uses battery when you have it off. also it lags if u try to play games. dont get this phone.

  • i think its good

  • The battery guys suck drains to fast takes 3 hours to charge camera is terrible 5 mp no focus only good thing is the snapdragon410 chip thats it but it is entry level smart phone

  • Please do a *#06# to obtain the IMEI number which will be like 359562069355840. The serial number in this case would be 935584 or the last 6 numbers excluding the zero

  • Not for me. I think its garbage!

  • Look at the original box and you will find it there in print or lift up the battery and it is printed on the body of the phone just below it.

  • does anyone know the serial# for the LG Leon LTE H345.... please hurry thank you

  • This is a great phone and with marshmallow it runs so smooth and fast

  • Well this is actually my 3rd phone from T-Mobile and well in general this is a whole junk full of stuff wrong with it. Not raining down on your review but here are some of the main problems with the phone: 1. Over heats, no matter how long you use it, it glitches out while charging after using the phone for a while ( as in after the first few months ). 2.Battery life is repulsive, it over heats as well, even if you have all your apps close it burns, and the battery saver doesn't even work, or darken your screen. 3. Depending on what apps you have, 8 GBs is supposed to be a lot right? No, bearly has any space at all! 8 GBs should hold at least 400 songs, not this one, it is very very bad. And even if you didn't download alot or put a few apps in it starts glitching out and screws around your storage and apps. 4.Ear jacks wear out as well, even if you don't you use a lot. It is absolutely terrible. 5. Camera quality is pretty bad as well, and as for video and image storage? It is very bad at that as well. 6. Breaks easly, depending on what angle it lands at. Point in conclusion, most LG phones are not good. I been looking at these reviews about how good the phones are, but after a few months or so ( or half a year ) you will see the problems. It's not a good phone. I'm not trying to sound rude, but I'm just putting details and fusteration I been though. Not in a rude way, but just showing why this phone is so bad.

  • I don't understand why this phone has negative reviews. This phone has not given me any problems, its a great buy.

  • The phone is pretty good. Its smooth running, customizable if you're a font person, and 3 gigs of space is great for me.

  • This was so well explained opinion that it really helps a lot deciding whether to buy this or not. Thank you for your effort. [/sarcasm]

  • I want to buy LG Leon I just wanna know if is it a good phone to buy please advise before I buy it thanx

  • There is update to Android 6.0 with security patch level 2016-05-01. (at least for H340n)

  • Did not know that this phone would get the Marshmallow update at all, but it's made my phone waaaay faster than it used to be.

  • this thing sucks

  • Most likely you are refering to the mtk version (H320), same looks but different insides ...

  • root your phone and download link2sd app but rooting phone will void your warranty FYI!

  • i just got my 6.0 update today (romania). Very good phone for its price and contrary to kids belive, this phone does not go hot even after hours of gaming and it DOES have 4G

  • Yes

  • Front camera not good for taking pictures of documents...no focus. Standard pictures from a distance are fine. Back camera works much better for documments

  • I am from romania and my lg has the android 6.0 update and it works very well

  • Stephanie86...so many things u can do.....a new rom...(custom rom)....search"lg leon root on android forums" and look for the topic specific for your phone..so many guides and good people there to help. Or u can use a paid app called SD MAID (has a free version but the pro version has much more features to clean out the phone..its pretty powerful...

  • Phone gets too hot too fast

  • its not 4G or lte very poor ph its ment to be a joke from LG shame to see LG be a dishonest [ a discrace to there founders ]

  • Great phone! Got Android 6.0 Marshmallow OTA update yesterday here in Denmark. That was a really nice surprise, as I really didn't expect a phone in this price range to get any further updates. Nice work, LG! My only two complaints about this phone is that it only has 1 GB of RAM and adoptable storage is not being supported, but you can't get everything for this price. 4 out of 5 stars from me.

  • i have a big stockage problem on my lg leon h324t. it has 2.35 gb as miscelleneous files... because of that i cant store much photos videos and applications on my phone.... can you help me please....

  • For The price this is an amazing phone!

  • Has anyone had a problem with the screan being foggy?

  • Yes u can you can do all apps

  • Can this phone get snapchat on it and instagram

  • I cannot get this phone to read QR codes, Ive tried different apps with the same negative result. I guess we get what we pay for.

  • To swap the back (standard) camera to the front (selfie) camera on the lg leon there is no swap camera symbol because you just open the camera app and once ot is open you cam swipe the screen left or right and the cameras swap. If that didn't work than im sorry but that is how i change the cameras on my lg leon. I hope i was helpful.

  • Rooting on any android device does not void the warranty. Apple is the only company that is stingy with what people do with their devices and therefor void the warranties on their phones when they are jailbroken.

  • ofcourse the front cam is only VGA

  • LTE = 4G

  • where is lte....

  • I've got a LG Leon LTE that works perfectly, except the selfie camera doesn't work, and is inaccessible from the standard camera app. There is no "swap camera" icon when I use the app. The rear camera works fine. I figured the camera itself had gone bad or somehow disconnected itself from the board, and I also own an LG Tribute 2 with working front and rear cameras, so I opened both phones and swapped cameras. The camera from the Leon worked fine in the Tribute 2, but the camera from the Tribute 2 is still inaccessible in the Leon. Still no "swap camera" icon in the camera app. Both phones are at Android Lollipop 5.1.1, Kernel version 3.10.49, Build LMY47V. Both phones are rooted. Can anyone please give me a clue as to why the standard camera app can't see the front (selfie) camera and what I can do about it? I've tried hard and soft resets and recoveries to no avail. Thanks in advance.

  • Get a free download manager(ADM). This downloads to internal memory. Another free app (apps2sd) will move it to sd card

  • I use Poweramp(6$). It allows any all changes and has 10 band eq

  • I have ADM download manager and can download anything. Adobe reader opens pdf. I have bus scheds and maps. All on my lowly Leon. I can do anything with my Leon that I can do with my laptop.

  • A Leon has that double tap turn on feature. I twisted one too hard playing a 3 handed game. My advice would be to see if the store could repair the screen. But Leons aren't expensive. A new Leon might be cheaper. Best of luck.

  • To delete system apps you have to root or jailbreak the phone. It voids your warrenty and you can erase the wrong thing 'bricking' your phone. Meaning it won't boot up and will only be useful as a brick to hold open a door. A bricked phone is NOT fixable. Make sure you understand what you're doing. [email protected] (txt for advice)

  • i have a problem in lg leon.it have 4 gb ram space.but 2.43 gb is system data .how can i delet system data.

  • Hold power button an volume down at same time

  • I've just gone and brought this phone (LG Leon) I've had many phones in the past and let me tell you now no phone will work to the standard of a human brain! Yes there will be glitches like most phones! You want to buy a Lumia they ain't great. I've got a couple of mates who have this lg and they said it's worth the money. If people are after a phone that u can have loads of apps open at the same time then buy a iPhone or the new samsungs. Am yet to have a full opinion but I can't see it being that bad.

  • Erm.....you can't use iTunes on Android anyway, iPhones are shit at least with android you get open network and not being stopped from downloading from other sources.

  • I have the Lg Leon. No it's not the worlds greatest or fastest phone. No the camera isn't perfect. Not a ton of memory and other little quirks. But its a decent phone pictuecis good. Internet not blazing but ok. And i can put my phone in any pocket without sewing in a cargo pocket in my pants because its so big or keep pulling my pants up cuz its to heavy. If you need all the cool stuff buy a tablet or iPad like i do. I bought 2 new for my wife and i for $29 each. So under $60. Do that or go spend $600 and get to that website 2 seconds faster. But hey I'm easily impressed. My first laptop was slower than my etch-e-sketch.

  • Since a Google Play Games update on the 20/4/2016, all my google apps show 01/01/1970 as the last update & previously compatible apps are showing as now incompatible. Any solutions?

  • Power button + volume down

  • You can't slate a budget Android phone like the LG Leon for not matching your experience with a premium mobile like the iPhone. Compare an iPhone with any one of the number of premium Android phones. Why would you go from an iPhone to a phone that's cheap, outdated and obviously vastly inferior in the first place?

  • Something is very wrong with you, need to visit a GP. LG LEON and iPHONE that's comparing a TATA to a GTO. Buy a real Android Phone NEXUS and come back and tell us feedback.

  • I have a question, I have the Lg Leon and my phone glitched and then the screen turned black, and even when I tried turning it back on and hard re setting it, it won't come back on. Any ideas on what's wrong with it?

  • Used iPhones for years. This is the first Android phone I bought. It is HORRIBLE! The Android OS takes up nearly 5 gigs of phone memory. It is slow & cannot multi-task. I cannot download or view PDF files (even tried with multiple pdf apps). It is not compatible with iTunes, or Mac. All in all this phone & Android is a frustrating disappointment. This was my first Android. It is my last Android. I am going back to Apple. At least Apple products are reliable.

  • what can i do?

  • How do we take a screen shot on this phone

  • Have been using LG Leon for a couple of months, it's my first Android after several iPhone models. Generally, the phone works perfectly. It has overheated once when Pedometer app crashed, otherwise there have been no problems at all. The battery lasts up to three days with normal use. A bit slow loading with some apps, esp TomTom, but this is not disturbing. The camera does quite a good job (at least good enough for me) :) In a word, I would say that Leon is a great phone and reasonably priced.

  • phone is horrible. battery life sucks, overheats way to easily i might as well use it as hot hands. camera blury and sucks ass. messaging is glitchy.

  • buy a better phone? in all honesty the only thing that loads pages is ram and you only have 1GB of it. never buy a phone that has less than 2.5gb of ram your phone will load everything slowly. also you need a good internet connection for loading pages faster. and it may be slow because the cpu is slow and not cause of the internet cause the cpu is the brain. and you have a slow ass brain in your phone who the hell gets any phone with less than 2ghz of processing anymore?

  • This phone is fucking terrible. The camera quality is mediocre, the audio quality and recording is terrible, the "draw a pattern to text" Swype ripoff is worthless, and voice recognition is a joke. On top of that, I had to get this phone twice. The first one had a SOFTWARE ERROR that caused it to literally just not work. There are glitches and bugs everywhere. Texting is chunky and slow, the letters will all randomly capitalize. There are several lock codes, including the gimmicky Knock code. At least, there USED to be, until an update removed them. It's a damn slow phone. Battery life is decent, at least. It was $150, which is better than most. Oh, wait, Samsung just released a phone for $130 that is far better than this one. This one's screen resolution is 480. The new Samsung's is 720. I do not recommend this piece of shit at all.

  • Anytime I google anything online it takes forever to load etc.Any ideas on how to speed up??

  • Check your charger and AC line voltage. If the AC voltage is above the rated specs of the charger, the battery gets too much electricy and can over heated which damages the battery.

  • I've had the LG LEON for 7 months now and with the exception of only 8G of memory and a low resolution screen, I find the phone does what it's supposed to do and does it well. The camera takes 5 megapixel photos and HD videos. Battery life is very good. No problem with battery over heating like some are claiming. Conversations are clear and reception is excellent. This is not a video game like I suspect some are trying to use it for.

  • I like the phone, but fully charged it last about 3 hours then the battery is flat. It also get warm when charging, any ideas?

  • What you must remember is its a quad core 1.2ghz which which was nearly high end only 2 years ago also the screen resolution is a lot lower at 854x480 instead of 720p or even 1080p on the high end phones that's why this lg leon can run this smooth it has less to render on the screen than iphone5, 6,7 galaxy s5,6,7 etc..

  • Haha amen

  • Good phone for the price, no lags or any problem,just the camera is more for the beginner

  • It gets blazing hot and the battery drains super fast when it gets hot. I was at 45% and one hour later at 15% battery. All I can do is turn it off and let it cool.

  • Seemed good value for money in the store as it had Android 5.0 Lollypop for only £80. Read the manual, moved my SIM card (it takes mini-SIM cards one size smaller than regular SIM cards), put it on the USB charger from my PC. It fried and has gone into fastboot mode "Loading keystore failed state 5 [570] USB init ept @ 0x8f1df000". Dead as a parrot.

  • Use a different player. Best organized on computer. Download onto micro sd.

  • Idk I wish I could get a Galaxy S7 this phone is lagging and I guess its good for a first starter phone I just really want to update already

  • My lg Leon was dieing put it on the charger and a few minutes later it died and now it won't charge at all

  • you meant in September or November but LG is starting to suck big time So they need to rethink the whole touch screen situation and when you are charging your phone and it says its charging well its not it get hella hot and dies while on the charger.

  • i had the LG Leon for a few months now and i really hate it because it gets too hot and it malfunctions and clicks on other stuff and i have nothing to complain about the camera overall its a good phone but i don't agree with the full touch screen the calibrations are not on point but i plan to keep it but after this month its time to say good bye and hello Iphone 7.

  • Lucky u can afford a plane. U rich

  • For people complaining about speed and memory and lag and camera if you want the best pay the best prices but for 50 bucks its a pretty damn good phone does what it should flawlessly battery gets through an entire day easily and runs surprizingly smooth for only a 1.2 ghz processor and i understand what people want expecially comming from an lg g4 but this is exceptional for the price

  • god smart pohn

  • I purchased an LG phone every time I open it stipulated configured your phone i can't do nothing on it. 2601:882:4100:34c0:88b9:ef34:e72a:8963 can someone help me please.I bought it in Best Buy.

  • just create a playlist from google play

  • Does anyone know how to modify details in music? On my old phone I was able to modify details like the song name, artist, album, or genre. On my new LG Leon, there is not an option that I see to modify any of those details. Is there a way to do so?

  • thats not possible sorry via iPad Air 2

  • Hey everyone...Can anyone help me? I'm 58, tech savy not...so need some help! I need to know cn anyone tell me how to push my contact list to Ford's SYNC3 system?

  • same problem. any solutions?

  • I have 8 hours charging my lg and it still has 50% of charge and I nedd to go to a flight im TOW hours

  • blurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry camera !

  • congortable to hold when playing MCPE has a PSP feeling to it its up-to-date with Android Lollypop pretty fancy with a CRT Shut off effect brings back my old TV days but btw the screen is very HD unlike samsung

  • My lg leon charges but then it wont it goes on and off and i checked my charging area and nothing is wrong with it and also i only have like 4 apps and im already out if storage

  • From my experience, you have to download the app to your phone first. Then go into Settings-->Apps then click on the app you downloaded. There should be option to move to SD Card.

  • I've had mine for about 9 months now and I really like it. Initially I had a few issues like occasional lag time, etc. which were usually cleared up by a restart. My unit did not come with a manual so I had to learn from trial and error until I found one on line. I then found that the camera was set to a default of 1 MP and had to be manually adjusted to 5 MP which improved the quality of photos. Battery life was initially an issue which was improved with the Lollipop 5.1.1 update. I also installed the DU Battery Saver that greatly increased battery life and decreased charging time. I also regularly clear the cache, history, cookies, etc. to keep the memory from getting too loaded up. With these steps the Leon has worked flawlessly.

  • I have installed a special glass and my screen is very safe now. For sure my next cellphone it will not be lg!! Low speed processor and battery.

  • how to apps download to SD card lg Leon?

  • You should get the Moto g (1st,2nd,or 3rd gen)This phone is so much better it has less lag better specs but there is a 16gb version of it which is much better than the Lg Leon.Not only that but there is the phone called the Moto e(1,or 2nd gen)This phone might be a much cheaper phone than the Moto g.It is a good phone.

  • I have this phone and I don't like it at all! Most of the 8 GB space is occupied and not available for user so basically I can't install many things that i used to on my last cellphone which was also 8 GB but with more available space. Camera is not bad but definitely not good either. Battery life is quite good for me but I don't know if that's because my last cellphone had a pretty bad battery. It gets stuck often and is not very durable, the back got scratched almost immediately and the screen cracked pretty soon; I mean obviously i'm not very careful with my cellphones but that had never happened to me before with other brands. I don't think I'll ever buy an LG again. :(

  • Soo basicly i have this phone and i hate it sooo much . It lags in menue , if i open the Telephone it opens in around 10 seconds , it works ok in games ,but in any aplications it gets stuck and need to get the battery out . I have done around 30 factory resets .. still it does that after 1, 2 days . 2/10 for this price

  • Comparing a $100 phone to an iPhone. Totally fair comparison.

  • There's this place called "service center".

  • Updates can be turned off, silly person.

  • tray another app. i use vlc or mp3 player (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=m­p3songs.mp3player.mp3cutter.ringtonemaker&hl­=en) work fine with both.

  • will google please piss off with updates if I buy a car I don't expect the salesman knocking on my door at a later date saying you need this sir that sir suits you sir a windows phone is starting to look tempting the reason I am ranting is my leon is fantastic cant complain but every time I switch on google updates hijack its memory ive had this same problem with previous phones is anybody else hacked off by this

  • For the camera i got the same prob Open camera go to its settings and u will see its resolution Waiting for the misc data..

  • Bought my phone about 5 months ago. Got my play list downloaded. All my Music but everytime i try to play one of my songs. It tells me Sorry this song could not be Played. All of them say the same thing I have tried everything i know of. Does anyone have any answers for me? It's a Great little phone does everything i need it to do works and charges great. Just won't play my Music. Why would it even let you put Music on here if it doesn't play it. Maybe someone can tell me what i'm doing wrong. Or if it even plays Music.

  • The phone constantly has random misc. data that cannot be deleted and takes up most of the internal storage space. How can I get rid of this and/or why does it exist in the first place? Also, the description of the phone says the camera can focus, but when I used the camera, it did not focus and the photos taken are always in a low resolution.

  • I bought an LG Leon at the T-Mobile store like 3 weeks ago, and brought it to Korea specifically so I could call and text my wife in the states over an app like Skype or Vonage. But I can't use it because I can't get any bars. I got on the T-Mobile website and did a chat with tech support for like 3 hours, and they tried every setting they could think of. They kept telling me the phone should work, but nothing. Battery is charged. WIFI works. But no bars. They had no answer. Sucks.

  • I had the same problem. I bought the USB charger so I could charge it off my laptop, and it worked fine for a few days, but then it stopped charging. A friend even let me use his cable, and it still wouldn't charge. But then I found that the wall charger would do it. I was sure the charger port on the phone was dead, but... eventually it came to life. Still won't charge on the USB.

  • Camera sucks and now it wont let me view any if the videos i took.

  • ugh great no my phond wont even charge... the POS phone got so hot that it appeared that the charging port got melted! the phone is complety useless! it wont turn on! via iPad Air 2

  • Disappointed that this POS wont play music.

  • This phone camera must be defective, great phone, but rear camera unable to take readable text, docs, business cards and or receipt pics. After back and forth figuring how to deal with, is even crazier my founding today. Front VGA camera took readable pics of text and receive, how is possible? My only explanation, rear camera device is defective.

  • Did you try getting a SD Card? get a couple more gigabytes

  • Lg leon has only 4GB of internal memory and 3GB occupied by the system and apps.Remain only 1GB for the user.how can this be possible. Plz reply

  • This is Hussain from Karachi Pakistan, I have just purchase LG Risio Cricket Cell Phone, but I can't use 3G service or LTE in this phone. there is no option of Changing the Network. can you please help me how to Fix this problem?

  • What is the difference in a rooted phone?

  • I'd hate to disagree, but i disagree. My phone is rooted( if you need screenshots i can make that happen.)

  • Here's a tutorial. you'll need your carrier's apn settings though.

  • You can buy for under 50 euros in Europe so it's a budget range phone so 1900mah is not too bad. You can probably buy a higher capacity battery online somewhere but could possibly affect the performance. But if you want a 2900 or +3000 mah battery, you'll probably have to spend a bit more and go into the high end models.

  • I bought one latebseptember. By mod november it would just power on and off by itself repeatedly. After a week of this, it ruined the battery. When going to the metro corporate office, they wont do shit for you unless it happens in front of them. Just bought another to avoid hassle on sec 5th. Guess what? A week ago it started powering on and off. Took it to metro n it didnt do it in front of them so my problem. Keeps getting worse so i took it back n now i gotta pay 15 bicks for trade in and wait a week. Oh, since the piece of shit powers on and off every 10 mins and wont charge or stops charging when it faults and it faults every ten minutes, guess whats happening to the battery (which isnt warrantied even though the defective phones ruining it)

  • I got one of these a few months back when T-Mobile had an unadvertised promo for the leon for $29.99. Heck some of those throw away phones cost more than that. I have the LTE version and have had no issues. It is not a top of the line smart phone I also have a Galaxy 6 edge plus but the leon is easier to carry around. And if I loose it or it gets stolen or smashed then big deal it was 30 bucks not $800. So for 29.99 it is a great phone for $150 or more not so much. If you are with T-mobile you can call sales and ask them for current promos they usually have some great buys that no one knows about unless you call and ask....

  • 2 days moderate use. If u use it for heavy usage then one day. Is there bigger battery than 1900mAh? Bye!

  • Every thing is good in phone like display touch internet is also faster . sound with the device is not up to the mark . when comes to battery life it is draining to fast.

  • what is the battery life for this phone??

  • I've had the LG Leon LTE for several months. I agree with you. I don't need to used as stereo or tv little games sometimes are ok. Easy to learn to use (and I am not a wiz, believe me). Has everything I need plus more. I've never had a phone worth several hundred dollars but I can't imagine what else I would need. I hear they have crazy good screens. But then they're so much bigger. I love my Leon. The battery does run out quick tho.

  • Can anyone tell me. How to set up the internet on my LG phone please

  • You're right, I have LG h324t, just customized according to my style. Very simple, useful and dependable device.

  • What a load of old rubbish some people post. I do NOT work for LG but this little gem that I bought last week because my Samsung Note 4 crashed big time resulting in it having to be sent back to Samsung, is so good, I've decided to dump the Note 4. The LG Leopn is very well built and has some very nice features. eg the quick memo and camera key using volue up/down buttons. Also, how sensible to put these buttons at the rear of the phone instead of the stupid fiddly little buttons that most manufacturers put on the side of their phones. As far as criticism of the internal memory is concerned, unless you have an iPhone, just about all android phones have 8GB internal but this can be expanded to 32GB using a microSD card. As far as performance is concerned, it is perhaps a little slower as a budget phone, but its performance as a communications device is excellent. Cell handover works perfectly (unlike my Samsung) and the bluetook and voice quality is excellent. As a budget phone, this LG Leon is excellent. I'm so impressed that I am going to look at the more expensive LG range with a view to finding something to replace my Samsung Note 4 on a permanent basis. LG phones are innovative, well put together and perform very well.

  • This phone is absolute ass if you're coming from any flagship made in 2013-present. Cameras are absolutely awful, battery life is trash, phone can't handle any type of heavy use without lagging and tripping. RAM and internal storage are both crap as well. I give it a 4 out of 10. Can't wait until I get another flagship to replace this low end crap.

  • Its a good phone i used it for 5 moumth and no problem And for all who have 3g or 4g pribleem just go to the service client and they send to you an message

  • It probably isnt the phone. I have thatkind of trouble when playstore crashes. Try that

  • i don't think kingroot can root on any android lollipop and up devices flash custom recovery and install root instead to fully rooted your device

  • well i have to ask you, if everything in the phone looks in yellow.? is that is a yes. the sistem of te phone have a issue. but is just the picture, you can visit setting, photos, and resolution and may there you find a solution...

  • Rooting is the solution to all problems. lol Bloatware removed/tweaked and Force2SD. Kingroot can do many on the fly now with Android.

  • The internal storage problem (miscellaneous files and system data take up about half of usable memory) and lack of ability to save apps directly to sd card make this phone a bit of a pain when it comes to storage - which i believe should be a keypoint factor in any review - but doesn't necessarily make it a bad phone.

  • My mom has a LG Leon And she hit some button and it changed her pictures yellow looking her apps and when she receives a picture message it's yellow as well? Anyone know how too fix this?

  • Wow...just wow. Read a couple pages of reviews and seen something here. Some people actually have a high hatred towards a great company. I mean come on here. Some of the complaints are just ridiculous and sound like a 5 year old is posting it. Here is an ho est review that is short, sweet, and to the point. Mind you that this phone is a mid level device... Screen is an 8 out of 10 Main Camera is an 8 out of 10 Front Camera is a 7 out of 10 Features is an 8 out of 10 Hardware is a good 8 out of 10 Lollipop is good... Phone also has some nice features. Just remember that this phone is not a high end model. This phone will definitely be good for your everyday user. Games play nicely and smoothly on this device. I have never had a problem with this device. You know..most people treat there devices like they are made to be thrown, beat, dropped in water, and just plan not cared for. If you take care of your device as i myself do then it will last you a long time. Its funny how some complain this phone or any other phone cant play games well, or, a phone doesnt take good pictures, or the screen is.....etc etc. Its a phone people not a TV, stereo, game console, or PC.

  • I have had my leon for about 6 months and have had little to no major issues. A few days ago i downloaded a game and it crashed before it opened. Then the game i already had downloaded started doing the same. I have enough RAM to play either game and i cant play any. I deleted the games and tried to download several different games and they all do the same...so idk wtf is wrong with this phone. Ive always like LG phones...but this one ruins it...cant wait until my upgrade.

  • Mostly good. Battery sucks and text-to-speech is bad, but it's apparently fall-resistant.

  • I have the LTE version of this phone and I love it. No glitches that I can think of. I have no trouble gaming with it online either.

  • This phone is terrible. You only get a certain amount of ram & its very laggy. Plus, my phone is not getting any outcoming calls. I can make calls but when someone calls me, it says "This user is not reachable" or something like that.

  • Work for the company much? In general most positive responses are coming from employees. Why is this piece available for sale considering that everyone in competition makes a higher quality product including product regulation as well as planned obsolescence? And beta testing already in a further progression before public market tests lack of consistency mean anything to you?so.. WHAT I REALLY WANT TO SAY WITH ALOT OF EXCLAMATION POINTS LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,...!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like that😎

  • It is not good overall it is not even close to comparing to ant of it's competitors, way too beta aka a ton of bugs and completely user unfriendly if they listen to consumer complaints and do their reasearch the next model might be worth it but so far definitely a no go.

  • I had to have my service carrier boost their signal in order to get basic functions out of this poorly created phone in which I purchased with a charging port that moves around and get variable charges from my initial purchase that is terrible poor quality control what excuse is there for this neglect to such a market there are no excuses at this point LG should have stayed home this is America home of opportunity in which you clearly haven't earned.

  • In addition I've had connection issues slow speed and in accuracy and location more than just a few times where as previous models talking about three to four years prior had no issue of course not LG poor format seems to be this companys greatest strength including poor text to speech Limited keyboards Limited ringtones that put you to sleep rather than wake you up in addition to the maximum of 20 minutes where is every other phone doesn't have such a quick cut off an alarm clock what individual would consider this logical if consistency is the measure poor planning poor construction for adaptation poor ability to be user-friendly poor quality of 4G LTE poor usage of memorized data that is usually useless in the format that they have chosen to sustain for whatever useless reason back of the drawing board even your beta model should be better than this shame shame shame you're better than this quick cracking the whip and focus on being user friendly if you ever want to succeed as a company in the cell phone industry.

  • The speech to text function is the worst I've ever seen from any phone it often has unusual suggestions to say it lightly it automatically saves on the internet icon every page that you view automatically into a separate tab which destroys memory very quickly it misses messages that most phones like Samsung or the iPhone always get this phone refuses with the same network intact same locations exact this has been the worst phone I have ever owned it is not user friendly and how the apps connect and how each function of phone works in the delayed time it takes with the very core processor or systemic dysfunction that limits the processor of this phone more like lG has failed greatly to its community and should give up now before further embarrassment is inevitable that is all what a waste of space and time I need a refund this phone sucks

  • I have my phone for a month and i found several problems. First of all the battery. Apparantely an enchanced ( normall one stores 1000 mAh and this one stores 1900 mAh ) battery isnt functioning properly. It doesnt charge if there is an extendor, it dies in a very weird way when it has about 5 perc. ( it is also likely to corrupt data while dying out ). Second the music player. It occupies any other eq playing and mutes its effects. To repair it there should be a choise of default players, but there is not, also its not displayed ( i found that the name is com.lge.music ) so u cant uninstall it. Third. Its not rootable becouse i was looking for a way to root it ( i even tried the manual way ) and no way was a succesful way.

Im pissed off that it was my christmas gift which my parents barrely collected the money for. Please help anyone if you found a way to solve these problems. Im begging you.

  • I had my lg leon for a month now and i noticed that my camera lens were taking horrible pictures. I tried everything to fix the len. I even tried to get an app to help this and it still did not work

  • I've had this of leon for two months and my service doesn't work! I aked my parents if they have any bar's at my house, and they do. But I don't! I don't know if it's t mobile's fault or not. My WiFi is ok, but my service isn't.

  • I bought my Leon from Optus on august 4 one week later I could'nt turn it on my son had to take the battery out teave it for a minute ,put it back and it worked .This worked for a short time, 0n the 22nd we took it back, it worked then they said there was nothing they could it was working .We took it back Christmas week it was still playing up,I damaged where you charge it trying to get it open .Optus rang and said it would cost $196 to fix it ,it only cost $149 I am very disappointed with Optus,

  • Battery level was going down as it was charging. Tried to turn off background apps but it kept doing all sorts of craziness. It showed an adapter icon hooked onto the phone and stayed at 0% for the longest. It also keeps disconnecting to my computer every few seconds. It's not my adapter as I tried using 5 different ones.

  • I'm happy about my phone i'm having my phone for 5months my lg leon is working my phone is giving no problems my apps are working it's giving no problems my volume rocker is working my headphones is working my spicker is working my data is working my wifi is working thank you lg.

  • you can be sim adapters on ebay

  • I've had mine for about fours days and the headphone jack has stopped working (when I plug my headphones in sound still comes out).

  • I have had sporadic problems with my WI-FI and found that occasinally I have to reboot the modem/router and the connection will improve.

  • Turn your Internet router off. Wait 30 secs and then turn the router back on. Hope it helps😊

  • I had the same problem! i could sometimes find my wifi but it would disconnect after a few minutes.I had my phone replaced,i couldnt connect to any wifi...(i think i could connect to non-secured wifis)..so if u cant replace your phone try re,oving ur password from ur wifi and place a mac connection only.

  • Only got this phone recently. Using it as a phone for taking running as my LG G4 is too large! So far it works well, not the speediest of devices (but so much faster than comparable Samsung models which in my experience are super laggy) and you can see they haven't spent as much time on the UI as their more expensive models. But still works fine. Blue Tooth audio is working great and Google fit is syncing between devices nicely. Battery life seems very good so far and screen is more than legible for my purpose. Overall I'm happy with my purchase.

  • The audio is very poor. It came with NO instructions at all. so far very disappointed. Can't go back to my old phone without having to buy another sim card. Would not buy another one.

  • Is the audio quality of the lg leon ok?

  • Having a similar problem not finding home WiFi, only the entire street :'D

  • Plz help me.how to install the apps in to sd card

  • warning!!!! do not but if u drop it only ome time and not a far drop it will crack horribly also really slow and uses up battery keyboard sucks!#

  • Re: Storage: I have had mine 3 months also. Thirty-Two apps downloaded. Still has 1.9GB free space. Do you have any music or video files stored on the internal memory? Also any downloaded files are stored in internal memory. You can also check "apps" in settings (select "sort by size" from menu top right corner of apps screen). Are there any in the list using a lot of your free space? Try selecting it and try "move to phone" if this option is available. Hope this helps! All the best.

  • From all the phones I have bought from my favorite MetroPCS store, the images on this phone look so real with 5.1.1. It is so colorful. And even better, the sound that LG has promised has made me love this phone. My last phone (the 1.5 star OneTouch Fierce only had 4GB of ROM) but this one every time an app updates, there's still enough space for more. ALso if you are looking for an easy root, just use KingRoot, but anything is all cool

  • I had this phone for 5 months and it's cracked I don't know if it is the cause of this but when I use my headphones it dosent work please help

  • Got a good heavy hammer in your tool box and phone insurance?

  • Got a good heavy hammer in your tool box and phone insurance?

  • I got the LG Leon lte a few weeks ago. The phone doesn't show my home wifi on the available networks, yet I have other devices on the wifi. Anyone have a similar problem or know how to solve this problem

  • I am using this phone right now and it's a good phone if you need a phone but don't have a lot of money. Mine cost $50 and T-Mobile made me buy a $40 prepaid plan with it. its camera is not as clear as other phone but I am fine with it. The battery is decent, ; I play Temple Run and it lasted 4h30m. When I leave it in my pocket, it lasted 2 days. This phone now costs $29.99 at T-Mobile. I wish I bought it later...

  • Iwant to buy 4gb model i have some question: i read in some site the this phone have problem in autofocus and how much the storage is free from 4gb between this and xiaomi redmi 2 wich one is better

  • I bought this phone about 3 months back. Camera and Display is good. Battery life is poor. Loudness of the speaker phone is also low. Difficult to hear while driving. Phone becomes slow after some time. Main issue is lack of internal storage. After installing about 5 apps storage fills. After that phone you can not even install an update. Attaching an external memory will not solve the issue. So I do not recommend to buy this phone. Waste of money.

  • Mine is a 3g version not LTE, dual sim-dual 3g, 8mp rear cam, 4gb internal. This is a good phone if you can manage it well.

  • I just bought mimes two days the only problem i have is that it won't let me recibe call or make them. idk!!

  • I've had mine for about 6 months now and I really like it. Initially I had a few issues like occasional lag time, etc. which were usually cleared up by a restart. My unit did not come with a manual so I had to learn from trial and error until I found one on line. I then found that the camera was set to a default of 1 MP and had to be manually adjusted to 5 MP which improved the quality of photos.Battery life was initially an issue which was improved with the Lollipop 5.1.1 update. I also installed the DU Battery Saver that greatly increased battery life and decreased charging time. I also regularly clear the cache, history, cookies, etc. to keep the memory from getting to loaded up. With these steps the Leon has worked flawlessly.

  • Has anyone this phone? If yes, please tell me if it's good or not.

  • why is it that lg leon thats not have glass protector

  • Go to Settings, then Accessibilty, scroll down to Flash Alert and check the box. Your camera flash will act as your visual notification alert.

  • a phone that does that has problems, not battery or charger, is the phone, the warranty is there for those cases

  • yes there is a dual sim leon h342 an i have it here, the phone is 8 gbs but it emulates a sd card and allows 4 gbs there included crap the os puts there so internal memory us limited so a sd card is mandatory to store pictures taken and music camera here is 5 mps and is decent but i used better ones, autofocus is minda weird, better tap on the screen where you want to focus battery time with the screen on 60 or 50 % of brightness is around 5 hours i would say, maybe more charge time is around 2 hours and half from 5% so the guy who said that phone tales 10 hours to charge, that is crap or charging on a usb port and even there, doesnt take that long, even with a bad charger you wont get those times, exagerate things doesnt help anyone the only real problem i had with it is audio quality on the headphnes or speakers via the 3.5 jack, sounds tooo low and no equalizer willl work on androind 5.0.1, days ago a ota didnt fixed that, i hope it gets a update to 5.1 or 6 officially but ssurely cyanogen already has something for it something i like alot is that it doesnt crash or have weird errors ,i got it without restart it or shut it down for a month only had problems with osmand which kept it on and discharged the battery over night in general it works very well and screen looks very good considering what i paid for it, very happy with it and is fast enough for what i do with it, alot better than the motorola e i got that i had to return because is a bad phone

  • My battery life improved when I received the Lollipop 5.1.1 upgrade. I also installed the DU Battery Saver and it almost doubled my battery life.

  • yes there is a dual sim leon h342 an i have it here, the phone is 8 gbs but it emulates a sd card and allows 4 gbs there included crap the os puts there so internal memory us limited so a sd card is mandatory to store pictures taken and music camera here is 5 mps and is decent but i used better ones, autofocus is minda weird, better tap on the screen where you want to focus battery time with the screen on 60 or 50 % of brightness is around 5 hours i would say, maybe more charge time is around 2 hours and half from 5% so the guy who said that phone tales 10 hours to charge, that is crap or charging on a usb port and even there, doesnt take that long, even with a bad charger you wont get those times, exagerate things doesnt help anyone the only real problem i had with it is audio quality on the headphnes or speakers via the 3.5 jack, sounds tooo low and no equalizer willl work on androind 5.0.1, days ago a ota didnt fixed that, i hope it gets a update to 5.1 or 6 officially but ssurely cyanogen already has something for it something i like alot is that it doesnt crash or have weird errors ,i got it without restart it or shut it down for a month only had problems with osmand which kept it on and discharged the battery over night in general it works very well and screen looks very good considering what i paid for it, very happy with it and is fast enough for what i do with it, alot better than the motorola e i got that i had to return because is a bad phone

  • The battery only lasts 4 to 6 hours. It takes about 10 hours to charge the phone when the phone is on. About two hours to charge it when the phone is off. Why is this?

  • I'm very disappointed with my LG Leon phone, the camera does not focus and can never have nice sharp pictures and can't read my old text messages.

  • Does anyone know how to put it in engineering mode??

  • this phone is not all that great. I've had it or 4 months now and it's hard to charge and it doesn't have a notification light and it's very slow

  • i have lg leon 3g version... what is the glass/protection of lg leon? and it has only 4gb internal memory... tsk!

  • Dat Babygirlcee, have you gone into your camera settings and changed it to the 5 MP setting because the default is only 3.

  • No matter what I look up or try I can not get the rear camera to focus and the pictures come out insanely blurry. The battery does last me all day but I like to do a lot picture taking and share them with my friends which I can no longer really do now.

  • is that true? 2-3h only? how about if the data or wifi is on? maybe it takes a 1hour can use this cellphne?

  • my battery only lasts about 2-3 hours

  • I acquired 2 LG Leon LTEs during the METRO PCS buy one get one promotion of November 2015. I previously had a Samsung. I REGRET the switch to the LGs as the rear camera does not have autofocus making it unsuitable for scanning barcodes. I did not test this function during the one week period allowed by METRO PCS to return the phones. Next month I will swap the LG LEON LTEs out for Samsung and relegate the LGs to the JUNK DRAWER.

  • You should by an sad card to have more space on that phone cause I have that phone and I added more space to it.

  • PL.let me know how to record the incoming call

  • I have problem with camera, it wont fokus, losing fokus on targets, before Magna i haved Spirit, it was perfect in focusing even on 5cm,Magna wont lock even on 20cm distance, anybody with same problem?

  • This phone is a piece of junk...the camera quality is horrible...the memory is to small only 4gb even though it says 8....the wifi is horrible it fails to connect 90% of the time...I can't wait to get my new phone I will crush this phone and throw into a lake and then retrieve it out it on fire watch it burn and then smash it some more.this phone is horrible do not buy. But if you already have it it's not too late to destroy it.

  • well i read all the comments and i still don't know how to free up internal memory. my phone is not letting me accept texts because my memory is full. i put in an sd card and i can't get apps to move to the card. does anybody have advise on how i can get the phone to work again. do i need to reset it and if so how?

  • If you have any questions of why your programers epically failed please text or call 214-916-1737 my name is Vicious

  • The biggest piece of junk i have ever owned nothing is formatted user friendly such as the internet searches each with a bookmarking system through the internet icon, the keyboard usless placing periods and spaces in an attempt to create simple text the text to speach the worst ive ever seen nothing on this worthless device is even somewhat user friendly

  • Apps and system data eat up about 6.5 GB of the storage, so you can't load apps you don't use and have to be selective, e.g. Google apps are often very large. Battery life was my main concern and it's been good. The camera is my main complaint as it's not good enough to work as a scanner. I don't take many selfie's but that one is even less adequate. Otherwise, I'm content with it.

  • It depends on the user. I got mine for $30 at MetroPCS got the phone free just had to pay for a month. My phone works great. If you leave apps running or allow your phone to die more than literally one time for any phone the battery will degrade. If you look in the settings it will tell you the last time you have had a full charge and if at anytime it says more than a day you are not taking good care of it. Also Sd cards are more of a hassle for any android phone other than the flagship phone(samsung galaxy) you must remove a little bit of data so it at least says 3.8 then yiu can download using the SD. Must be formatted and set to be used.

  • Version H320 don't have LTE and hav 5 MP camera.

  • Better read past comments.

  • pls friends help me on how to sign my google account on google play store

  • How do I find my focus indicator on my camera. Every time I take a picture it comes out blurry. Please help!

  • sorry the button is move to the sd card. i already mounted the sd card.

  • Iphone 5s is way to pricey than LG Leon. It's an awesome phone considering the price. You can't expect a phone to be at par with iphone when the cost is only 25% of it.

  • My Leon is newish and i started having problems with internal memory full. i got an sd card and installed it. i went to settings then apps and then i click on the app but the (mount the sd card) button is not highlighted and wont do it. what am i missing? Help

  • Purchased an LG Leon when I changed my cell company. It lasted a few months and then had issues turning on/staying on. I returned it to the store and got another one a week later. They swapped the original battery and SIM from the 1st phone and put them in the new one...three hours later the phone failed in exactly the same way as the first phone had. The guy at the store thought it might be a battery issue. Batteries are not covered under warranty. I don't care what the issue is, I expect a cell phone to last for years.

  • Thank you!!

  • This is my second phone since April that drops calls and does not show who is calling all the time. I check to see if the wi-fi is on. Because the clerks tell me this will drop calls. Has anyone else have this problem?

  • Why i can't download and receive files that can be save in external sd? Hohohoh. I feel so sad about this. Please help. Any suggestion. I even try some third party apps but still it can't. Please help!

  • You can't download directly to SD card but most of downloadable apps and games can be moved to sd card. simply go to settings, apps, swipe to the left.... you can see apps on sd card. All apps with checks were already in the sd card. Those with no check are movable. Just click each apps with no checks then move to sd card, one at a time. Everytime we install updates, apps automatically move again to phone memory, so we should move it again to sd card to free phone memory. I have an LG Leon H324t, 3g only, dual-sim, 4gb internal and 8mp rear cam. I found this phone very user-friendly and has good specs. Hope this will help.

  • Yes. 1) LG leon 4g (LTE), 8gb internal, singles sim, 5mp rear cam. 2) LG Leon 3g (HSPA), 4gb internal, dual-sim, 8mp rear cam.

  • I'm confused. Does this phone have separate 5MP and 8MP versions?

  • It sucks. That is all.

  • I bought this phone about a month ago from a MetroPCS dealer locally. I wanted to go cheaper on my plan and put away my ZTE ZMAX. I'm now getting a message of sim card not phone when its in the device. I've done all the trouble shooting steps and have only gotten the run around from Metro's customer service department and the store which fixes repair issues. This is the second entry level lg device that has had an issue.

  • My lg leon is 4GB in the storage settings why?? Can any plz help me i can use only 1GB to install apps and it must be 8GB and 3GB for installing apps plz help why its only 4GB???

  • Go to settings. Tap on wifi then tap your menu button again and you will see "advanced". Tap that then choose wifi during sleep setting to "always on".

  • So enter your google account info and then continue on with the phone. O, i see you dont want to do that because you think it will come back on you because you stole it. Thats why you did a hard reset. I wish they would make it so you had to enter a code after a hard reset so the market wouldnt be flooded with all these stolen phones. All the times i have heard the same stupid line "it's not stolen, im just selling it because im buying my friends old phone" dumb.

  • Just got the LG Leon (T-Mobile) version, Sad about the camera, 5MP(NOT 8MP) NO Autofocus, On the upside tmobile sold it to me for $70 as part of a promo, Its got LTE and wifi calling (no signal in my house) OS works nicely, processors great for a budget phone, 8gb internal memory, you can use about 3gb of that for installing apps, battery holds up for about 7 while playing youtube and such, using it as a phone, you can get about 16 hours give or take. exept for the camera, I give it 4stars for a budget phone

  • Lol that was a silly question as much as i hate iphones iphone 5s is a million times better, iphone 5s is a high end device, lg leon is a budget device, if you want to compare then you should compare iphone 5s with the LG G series.

  • Worst phone every.. LG leon... after hard reset, it will NOT let you go past the enter google account.. and this is the SECOND phone I got from metropcs that does this... into the garbage it goes...

  • Iphone 5s

  • Which is better lg leon or iphone 5s? Please tell me because i don't know which one im gonna buy

  • Is the lg leon have a dual sim model?

  • Which is better lg leon or iphone 5s?

  • I have a strange problem with my Leon. It seems like it is loosing Wifi when I don't use it. If I don't use it for an hour or so, or overnight, when I unblock it, I start receiving all the emails and fb messages (via messenger). But not a single email or notification for hours, if I'm leaving it alone. It happened both on data and wifi, but mostly on wifi. Any settings I'm missing? Does any of you have the same issue? Battery is ok, it lasts even 2 days. Sound ok. Camera... better not use it unless you have to..

  • My LG does, it even lasts for 2 days, if I don't use it much on facebook, music, or not taking pictures. For phone calls and some music, it lasts 2 days.

  • this phone is really worthit for amount of money you spend

  • Is the battery capacity of lg leon ok? Can it last a day?

  • The info is for the tmobile h345 and metropcs ms345. There is 8 gigs of memory built into this device, but that memory disappears under a 4 gig system image that is almost impossible to remove or decrease in volume.

  • If it has a MediaTek processor, surely it's a fake, clon LG.. Mediatek are used on that kind of phones...

  • Camera on this phone sucks I don't like it

  • Here in Philippines the internal storage is only 4GB. The processor is MediaTek not Snapdragon, the battery is 1,850mAh.

  • U can. But u have to root ur phone

  • What company you have

  • I need a manual for this phone. So difficult to find online?!

  • Lg leon have too many models for various countries, so be careful before buying, I have got lg h324t model, and it has olny 768mb of ram and 4gb rom, it has 8mp of camera, but the the other lte verson (h340) have 1 gb of ram and 8mp camera, and the other 3g version (h320) has got 1gb ram and 5mp camera with dual sim. I will not say this is a good phone, it is very bad for me,but it will be great for those people who are using new smartphone

  • Is it really not possible when downloading from google play store directly to sd card ?

  • Is it really not possible when downloading from google play store directly to sd card ?

  • The info is from prerelease, most of it anyway.

  • fake info its only 5 mp camrea

  • the internal memory :8 GB, 1 GB RAM. when you look in the storage 4GB is written but it is actually 2GB? Does my phone has a problem? I just bought it 2 days ago and i'm worried.

  • You have some models that are single SIM and dual-SIM,and yes you have screenshot hold the lock button and volume down button hold it for few seconds

  • I have LG Leon 4G LTE,and it's awesome but only problem is that i can't download anything from Google Play to SD card. I've tried everything and nothing. But it's OK.

  • It sounds like it is defective. take it back and exchange it for a new one. dont take that one home. what did you pay for it? dont take no for an answer. Or else threaten to bring them to court.. I have that phone and never had any problems with it. You have a defective phone. stick up for your rights. you paid good money for it, and you deserve a phone that is perfect.

  • Tnx^^...it works well for me.

  • Hi, How are you? Have you checked which model it is. There are several different models depending on region and the price, all having a different specifications. The model shown here is the LG Leon H340 or something like that so just check if it is not the H345 or has any-other model number. Sho

  • ONLY 512 Ram -_- wtf!! you said 1 gb? wheres justice??

  • Mine is LG h324t, dual-sim, 3g, 8mp rear cam, 4gb internal, quad-core. I think the other LG leon model has single-sim, LTE, 5mp rear cam, 8gb internal, quad-core processor.

  • Is LG Leon dual sim have screen shot? how?

  • Great phone, the only thing that was disappointing was the storage - it says 8 gigabytes, but the OS takes up nearly 5 gigabytes! So you really only have 3 gigs. Without a SD card to store pictures on, your options are very limited.

  • cheers zulaikhiz I now have a healthy 8mp healthy new phone thanks you buddy

  • Buddy read with open eyes.I. 5mp dual sim and 8mp single sim. See the camera specs......5/8mp cheer!

  • Is there a place for a sim card. Shouldn't that solve the storage problem

  • Great phone for this range. handy, durable battery (2.5 days for regular use), good rear cam. The only issue is the Internal memory, only 4gb but I can move apps to sd.

  • how the hell do you distinguish this camera size farce got mine several weeks ago instore said 8mp so bought in returned to store recently now it says it is a 5mp can you tell by model number or what a very confusing and stupid farce

  • This is nice phone.

  • Hey man.. Listen there's two models of the Leon the 3g and 4g depending on them it can be either 5mp or 8mp

  • Has 8mpx

  • You also have a operating system, right? becose of that you have just 4gb free on your phone

  • 4GB of the 8GB storage is taken up by the OS/App's etc. There definately is 8GB there.

  • Leon got 5 MP camera, not 8 MP.

  • Leon has a good camera.. I don´t understand why the people hate the cam res. In my opinion LG does a good job with the low end phones.

  • In internet showing this phone having 8GB internal memory but it having only 4 GB... No more camera features like panorama ,, multishots etc & front camera only VGA it gives too bad photos... So please reply me anymore options in my LG LEON.. MY MAIL [email protected]

  • The only bad thing os the memory it has an 8 g internal memory that its pretty good for the price but I know more than one person including me that the system data is taking almost 5 g so it leaves anything I cant downald anything the only way to solve it appearly is reset the phone 😢

  • And the LG leon comes in 3g with 4G built in as well as LTE 8G built in..both look the same..options are same..careful in which you choose..3G has 2 sim usage..LTE is single sim

  • Hey Godess of Darkness..atleast u said positive stuffs for this LG leon lte..inspiring to purchase..but looks like so many have faces trouble!!

  • bad quality pone, no free memory for ur apps, ad cams and bad technic service

  • the front cam was not good

  • u people use it only for camera for some of us its about the speed and able to play games on it. u want to talk bout crapp fone get the vodacom smart tab 3g that one sucks.

  • I agree I'm always having to charge my phone at least 4 to 5 times a day. 😩

  • Oh I forgot to mention that it does not have spot for 1st card.

  • I like the camera but it gets hot all the time. Don't have any other problems a really nice phone.

  • Terrible phone. -I miss calls (the ringtone does not go off, even though the sound settings are correct and I have restarted the device many times) -bad camera, the colors are so saturated you think they will clog your arteries -VERY slow (and, no, I have stripped it of the extras if you exclude Whatsapp & FB) -the back cover does not open easily without marking the cover steer clear of this junk. Waste of earth's RESOURCES not only your money

  • MediaTek? 711Ram 1gb Internal use?

  • A fairly good phone but the camera sucks and I was lied to about the camera being an autofocus. Lg blew it on this phone. Someone should have got fired for letting this phone have a fixed focus.

  • internal memory is 4 and chipset is media teck !!

  • awesome phone. thanks lg

  • LG L22C (Power) is CDMA phone. You are looking for LG L33L (Sunset). That is the same phone but set up for GSM / LTE service.

  • got mine last week takes great pics surfs net fine battery fine..cheap phone but a hell of alot better function than most of the high priced crackberries and iphones

  • Lol, so many people complaining about the camera and other none essential options 9 the hand held devise. Funny thing though, I just purchased two of these phones for my parents, one in good health, the other not. Both of them were able to navigate this devise much easier than their previous flip phone devises. The camera worked just fine for their needs and the phone worked fine. If the complainers want a super camera along with super storage, super screen and super so on, but an S5, S6, or the new iphone. You ways get what you lay for, so if you go cheaply like all you complainers have, then you have no platform to complain from!

  • nice phone, but i can't fing 4 lte in it

  • The camera doesn't focus on anything

  • well it looks like a g3 but for the price I can't expect it to do as much

  • I takes quicker to charge than an iphone

  • The memory card messed with. the phones operation causing it to hang up......well friend that just may be the reason for my leon to freez up...Im having problems to...

  • Poor camera...becouse no auto focus....battery time sucks and charges slow...phone freezes none responce on touch screen ...they portray this phone as nice.....cheap and Bill shit you on the price...lie.Sal sell sell.

  • Hi i would like to consult my lg leon. Last time i insert a 8gb memory card but my phone hang and i think it lost for a while. After 3 days i remove the memory card and it go back normally. Then the technician said that the memory card is the cause so my phone hung up!

  • after all the research of the best budget smartphone this lg leon fits all that i needed it is indeed a bang for the BUCK worth it. only problem is the charging time it takes about maybe 45-1 hr full charge.

  • This phone sucks. I lags too much and overheat for no reason. Its garbage do not wasre you money on this. Camera is horrible to

  • First mess up wire charger? This is 2015!!!! 2nd android market can't even download some app's like world star hip hop.... MetroPCS

  • I bought this phone as a replacement to my blackberry curve 9320 (2012) and samsung Galaxy S (2010) as they have both died after years of use and abuse. I plan to upgrade to the LG G4 Pro when it gets released but I got the Leon on the 10th September and have be very impressed so far miles improvement over my last phones which isn't a hard feet by any mean as most of the phone I have had were pretty outdated, I chose this phone over others in the same price range as it seemed to be the best all round proformer. A word of advice to all the people slating the phone saying how it is bad here's a newsflash if you have come from a flagship phone it is not going to compete with it at this price, every phone has there down sides so just deal with them and find away around them thats what I have always done with my phones. :)

  • It over heats obsessively it lags and stalls often battery doesnt hold a charge... Im furious with this phone its a waste a safety hazard it feels like its going to blow up.

  • I work for a LG provider.. I own this phone. It works great for me! (I work at a Independent Phone retailer, we sell all the Major carriers).. Mine runs the T-Mobile/Metro provider. To the previus "Phone sucks" what sort of issue were you having?

  • That's right it SUCKS waste of money

  • Did the 5.1.1 came out, cause i just bought it today, and i looked it up on google and it said that the update came?, but one thing is that it says its overheating when its not, when im trying to put brightness up.

  • This phone is really good to me just bummed the charger went out already but mine works great

  • Ty for the reply. Does anyone know how to stop the freezing up. When message flashing NO SONGS TO PLAY at the bottom in a turquoise color box square. It flashes and can't use any function? Annoying I can't stand it anymore. Haha

  • For all of u out there wanted to buy this phone i can tell its good and has a nice camera for that money and a good flash also nice quality but lolipop 5.0.X is making it lag because of memory leak problems!you should buy it when the 5.1.1 comes out because it will fix the problem! Also you cant root it ! -No Otg feature and some roms!

  • This phone should come with a warning the camera can take some clean pictures but for the most part the quality is garbage theres not many options without having to download shit and half the time your just wasting your time trying to get pictures my older Lg took waaaaaaaaay better pictures.. We should be refunded our purchase if not be abme to use to get an upgrade with better quality that we dont have to eat by paying more money or our storage due to continous downloading

  • It's good and when I drop it alot it doesn't break I love it the best.☁🎈🎈&#­9729;🎈🎈☁ 🎈🎈🎈&#127­880;🎈🎈🎈 🎈🎈🎈&#127­880;🎈🎈🎈 ☁🎈🎈&#12788­0;🎈🎈☁ ☁☁🎈🎈­🎈☁☁ ☁☁☁🎈&a­mp;#9729;☁☁

  • thanks for the review

  • My lg Leon does the same thing turquoise box no songs to play if phone is super slow is a piece of junk do not buy LG Leon

  • Ive had this phone for 2 months and already the battery dies after 20 minutes after 7 hours of charging. Charger port is already giving out. The light flashes on and off unless you put in a certain knot. The phone itself freezes and backround is slow. And on a memory tip 4 of the phones 8 gigs are phone data. So mine as well say 4 gigs. Not worth it... Zte zmax is wayyy better.

  • A budget phone that held a lot of promise, but fell down in the areas that I really needed it to stand up. The phone has some great specs for a budget phone, it can multitask without a problem and doesn't slow down even with several apps running so no problems with the basic architecture and the OS is great too. What I don't like is even with the mildest autocorrect setting, it wants to change short words that end in "th" to numbers eg: "with" = "28th". Same with "st", "nd", "rd". The phone also really likes fudging acronyms. This phone's autocorrect is a colossal waste of time if you're in any kind of technical industry and use your phone for work. It's also missing about half of the dictionary and it's "English" setting is locked into an American English dictionary. The screen being crazy thin is apparently a selling point.. Mine broke far easier than it should have, it suffered a fall to the ground of less than a foot and the screen shattered and bits of glass came off. The screen still worked for about 2 months, though yesterday it started not taking inputs. Now if I only get 4 or 5 seconds of input out of it, then I have to lock it again, wait about 10 seconds and unlock it for another 5 seconds, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. If your screen is still intact, I recommend you get a tempered glass screen protector immediately. The display is actually pretty poor by today's standards too. The rear camera sucks, badly. I'm a service technician and sometimes I'm overseas and have to relay photos of complex circuitry back to home base, no macro focus means no good photos. The front camera isn't worth mentioning. No notification LED means it's useless for using to communicate when you're in a noisy factory or when you just want it to be silent. Lack of bands means in some parts of the world, it's hard to get data going. (Or anything communication for that matter) The sim card carrier does not lend itself to having sim cards inserted or removed and you have to remove the battery to get to it. The SD card can be removed without removing the battery, but you still have to take off the back cover (not as easy as it should be) to get to it. I don't mind how the switches are on the back, but being that the switches are contained in the cover itself means that sometimes, the signal doesn't get through the contact points between the phone and the cover. Cleaning the contacts every now and then will alleviate this. Honestly, A pretty useless phone in this day and age, I would have payed another $50 to have a better protected screen, a better rear camera and a better autocorrect. Never buying LG again. A guy once told me that he stopped selling LG products; he said they were "L-G: Lucky to Go". Pretty much on the mark. Even 20 years later. Avoid at all costs.

  • I was told it had Q slide apps, which it does not. The shortcut buttons used to launch apps dont have any option to change which apps they load. Mediocre phone. My camera autofocuses fine.

  • DO NOT BUY THIS LG-LEON every time i make or recieve a call , the calls drop just about every time . the only way to keep a incomming or outgoing to to stay connected is to press the power button so the scree can go black and not light up . ALSO THE WIFI AND 4G IS SUPER SLOW

  • Now I'm really getting to know this phone. It has no auto-focus and has no macro focus. All close up pictures or fine print is blurry. Blowing up the fine print makes it more blurry. Some comments are saying it has no macro focus so it won't bar code scan either. My old MyTouch 4g didn't need a laser to auto focus thus I believe they could have done it right but for some reason it really feels like someone is 'cutting corners' doing a bad job when they could have just as easily installed it correctly. After using every "cam app" you can tell it's more like a hardware issue and not a software one. Are we really trying to save 5 cents per a $100 phone? Are we really trying to get people to buy a more expensive phone?

  • Please don't buy, I bought this Phone after one week it got repaired.after a3 week service at Colombo service centre I received it but after two days problem again.

  • The fact that the autocorrect defaults "with" to "38th" is the most flat out dumb thing I've ever seen. And yes, the camera having no control over the focus is also incredibly dumb. But really, the autocorrect thing is driving me nuts. I like how I can answer texts in a window without backing out of youtube. Can't wait til a phone comes along that lets me hear youtube and do other things simultaneously, but for now I'll deal 38th what I'm given.

  • They could have just as easily install A real camera that has auto focus and able to take sharp close ups. So then why they intentionally put inferior camera lens or system is hard to explain what the motive is behind closed doors.

  • My phone will flash towards tge bottom a turquoise color box with No songs to play in the box. It's so annoying and won't let me use any feautures until it stops on it's own. Have rebooted taking battery out etc. And bam! It's still there. Please help. Ty so much

  • i have one but can,t use it in ghana ....................no available service i just dont know wat to do i need some help

  • I have had the leon for about a month now and when i try to play music out of thr phone or even with headphones it becomes extreamly staticy. This phone hasent been near water so i dont know why it would do that. Plz help

  • LG had best be working on a patch or app to fix the focusing of the camera! It has the worst close up focus that you can not see and gets more blurry when you blow up the picture. I typically get close ups when I want to show someone detail or the ingredients on a food label or the VIN# on my car when I go the auto parts store, or a receipt's invoice number, or even the price of sale items at the store which has a ending date that now can't be seen. Any print that is small basically is blurry even if you back off and zoom in. There is no way that they did not know this and they know very well in advance that they would be getting called out about it which shows the power they have to not meet customer needs per the "market" that they have under control, not the "market", and people don't get what they want like some kind of dictatorship pretending to care about you. The same problem exists with the other low end phone "Alcatel pop astro", so choosing that phone over this one would not have helped. Speaking of help, no thank you. I guess I'll just have to go back to using a pen and paper from now on til they fix this, I know they are not going to because in this country they are not out to meet the wants and needs of customers for over decade now as if the invisible hand in the market is in control when it's them who control it.

  • Download Wifi Analyzer; check the channel you are on at home; if there is a better channel then change your router channel. If you don't know how to do that...google your router name and model and change channel to receive instructions. I know this doesn't explain why your other devices seem to go fast, but it is worth a try.

  • Yah, the camera close ups suck. You can't just take a pic of say ingredients on a label, when you blow it up it's all blurry.

  • Most of people use their phones for dialing, messages, music, camera, facebook, instagram and twitter. This phone is great for them. It could have a LED somewhere on it to see that you have a notification even with screen off.

  • Having the exact same problem as "TT" posted yesterday. I thought I was losing my mind. The Leon is insanely slow on my home wifi even compared to my old beat up LG F3. I took it to the Metropcs store and both phone worked at the exact same speed on their wifi. Got back home and the Leon was slow again. I'm glad I'm not the only one with this same story. It is beyond frustrating. I've swapped out my modem/router (no change) and have a Comcast tech coming to my place in a few days but I think I'll just end up having to by a phone that actually works on wifi (a crazy concept in 2015, huh?)

  • Doesnt have auto focus!!!! Im so mad!!!

  • This phone sucks! It doesnt have auto focus for camera. Cant take close ups and i cant deposit checks to my bank on my phone as it detects my phone doesnt have auto focus!!!!

  • No problems except for ONE HUGE PROBLEM. The wifi speeds are extremely slow. Like, I can barely load anything, but only when I'm connected to my home network. This makes no sense cause every single other device connected to the home network is completely fine. (I'm typing this on a tablet.) When I took it to the store, they connected it to wifi, and it worked perfectly. Now I'm home, and it's the same. Any thoughts?

  • Just go to general settings push apps then click the app you want to move and you will see move to sd card....... some apps cant be moved

  • I got this phone because it was literally the best cheap. DO NOT GET THIS! If you are looking for a phone with good everything, it's like they say, money. the more exp it is the better. It's like they didn't even try. It wont let me upgrade the OS, it won't let me install almost anything on here from the store cause it says I have no memory when I know I have a gig or more, it constantly crashes, almost any app I turn on it takes almost 30 seconds+ to open. My raspy runs smoother than this and it's the first model. It will completely freeze and I have to hard reset it. A phone shouldn't need this. LG needs to stop making phones. Everyone I've talked to about this phone or LG in general has told me the same things I have said... It's just, no... don't get it.

  • Can't play any music from the music app.....WHY NOT ??

  • It has the ability to video with a front cam

  • how can download to the sd card

  • hi there, I recently got the LG Leon, there are a couple issues that I have been noticing on my device that I wanted to ask for advice for. The first issue that I am having an issue is when I move my screen around on my games sometimes it will take me into Google search, is anyone else having this problem? The second issue I'm having is that sometimes when I go to enter my password to unlock my screen, when I tap to enter my password it just goes to a blank screen. Is anyone else having this problem? I also play a game called "my singing monsters", and when I do the Tapjoy offers, it will not give me the rewards and even when the representatives try to credit my account, the diamonds will not go to the account. Is this an issue with the phone or an issue with the game? any advice on this would be greatly appreciated as I am Not sure if I should get a new phone, because I'm not sure if it is an issue with the phone or if this can be fixed thanks everyone😊

  • Pros? Cons? Telllll me ppplllzzzzz

  • does this phone has video call facility ??

  • my lg leon is fast and it does not lag at all, I don't understand why yours is lagging, u have a china-clone phone I guess

  • Was working fine at first but then it got hot and wont charge or turn back on. No beuno metro

  • Less than $70.00 at Best Buy, folks. If you only have to speed dial a 10-digit number to tell your daughter you'll pick her up from school or soccer practice, it's just fine. Stop trying to think that every phone is supposed to be a retina cutting screaming media machine!!

  • CAN SOMEONE HELP ME, i got this phone one month ago and it dies too fast now, and the chargers wont work for some reason, HELP??

  • This. Phone. Is. A. Piece. Of. **. It lags soooooo bad for me and i literally have to take off the battery because the screen goes black and i cant press anything. It takes so many home button presses to actually GET to the home button. Picture quality is awful. All of my apps stops working after loading and im seriously GOING to get a new phine soon because i cant stand it anymore. Does this happen to anyone else??????

  • My phone is LG lion..i thouth LG lion his phone memory is 8GB! but my phone memory is 4GB and is sim is dual sim!..i thouth is single sim?why????

  • i got this phone yesterday and it has no screen protector on it (out of the box) is tihs gorilla glass? does yours have the same? please reply

  • The camera is nt good i dont know how to fix it

  • Yeah it sucks it lags every hour for me and freezes then it overheats and wont charge after using it for a couple of months

  • Yes it does

  • Does it have front camera?

  • I'm trying to find a real good guide to this phone. Something where I can get some real questions answered. Like, how do I get the FM radio to work (which app works), how do I set the number of rings before it goes to voice mail, how do I find out how much memory is currently being used with the apps/widgets running, a good guide to Android v.5 and some other wonky type things. Any thoughts?

  • No

  • I am enjoying everything about this except the picture quality is seriously lacking compared to the rest of the phone.

  • The Leon plays only MP3, WMA and AAC files out of the box, your music be be another format. The majority of my tunes are 320kps MP3 and it handles them perfectly.

  • I currently have a LG G3 and picked up the Leon as a back up. I do not see all the issues others are posting. I essentially duplicated my G3 on it. Moved what apps I could to the 32gb microsd card. The camera is fixed focus so no macro mode which means no barcode scanning. At 5mp the camera is OK but not as sorry as people are saying. I have taken the same pictures with both phone and although inferior to the G3 the Leon pictures are very usable. It actually has 2 features my G3 lacks-Band 12 which is a biggie here in SoCal and Android 5.1.1 after the update. My G3 is stuck on 5.0. I am typing this on my G3 but currently listening to SiriusXM on the Leon which gives me 2 more bars of signal on Band 12 in my office. For $69 bucks the Leon is pretty awesome! If you are comparing to a flagship and are expecting that level of function you are looking at the wrong device, but for my use it is perfect.

  • I downloaded music from my PC, and when i pick a song, the message 'sorry, the song could not be played' any help?!?

  • Does it have enough storage space for things such as music and games?

  • Thanks for that comment i was wondering how to turn the volume up without opening the music app

  • I have this telephone and is awesome. Fast, nice audio, the chamera have digital zoom 4x(front and back 8MP). Is a very good quality, and i will buy another for my wife.

  • I have the same problem

  • It is 1gb. You can only run 768mb. The rest its for lights and network. Its just like the engine in your car. You might have 360hp and it will give you around 300hp. Becaus if it give you over 360hp Blows up.

  • lg y50 other name Leon .It was launched in Turkey. Price 600 Turkish Lira. But cpu model Mediatek MT6582 (LG-H324TR) .Dual sim ,battery 1900 mah. If you rival Turkish mark General Mobile 4G .

  • Speaker volume. Rocker button at (above below) the power button on back.

  • Torch is not saported for this dvice pls help me

  • Yes the LG, Prime i think looks a bit wide, LG i feel has nicer grip size style to it. Also lollipop is on LG

  • I was so close to getting this for metropcs but they just came out with a new phone called the Samsung galaxy core prime. Just because people say the LG camera is bad and that the other phone is Samsung I'm stuck once again. Do you prefer the Leon over the galaxy core prime❓❓❓&#1­0067;❓❓

  • This Phone is awesome i got it today and i see nothing wrong with it takes good pictures and it is for apps. Awesome phone got it at metro pcs

  • when i 1st got the phone i thought it was awful. here's the story after owning a month. the good: signal quality=excellent!, battery life= excellent! fast charge if you use the adapter that came with the phone. || power button, vol-awesome. the bad: multitasking, have gps running-nothing else works. everything quits if you were playing music and stuff.

  • Which company were you with metropcs or t mobile

  • Wrong phone choice! Phone lags constantly. It said 8G for its internal memory but when I checked it has only 4G. I can't even download even a silly game to play. I only downloaded the social media apps I frequently used. If only our stores here accepts returns, I would have returned this immediately and bought instead the samsung unit. I don't recommend buying this one.

  • it does have zoom..i just checked

  • If you want to use the camera for pictures or barcode scanning, forget this phone.

  • When it comes to memory, it's been found that just rounding up to the nearest whole number is easiest. A 600+GB Hard Drive is called a 640GB. Stop splitting hairs.

  • I hate this phone. The camera SUCKS. There is NO zoom. The on and off and volume butyons on the back...they suck. Thank God I am getting a full rebate. Soon as it hits my mailbox I am buying a different phone.

  • not normal i have had mine for over a week and no problems

  • I read in LG website LG Leon has 768 mb of Ram. So, its really 1gb ram or 768mb?

  • I cant hear from the speaker or when i try to play music,videos can anyone help??

  • Barely bought it yesterday and i notice the screen gets way 2 hot i cant even touch it is this normal?

  • I love taking pictures but since i hav had my phone, about three weeks, only a handful of my pictures turn out. I take a pic of something, go to look at it and it is an error picture... Help!

  • I've tried to upload the apps of Facebook, twitter and Instagram (WIFI is on) but its coming back and saying its fails....help!!

  • With most phones you need to put the new service providers sim in and it will ask for the unlock code when you turn on. Good Luck John.

  • have this phone, its locked to metropcs, i want to use other carrier, but i can't unlock it. even though i have the unlock code, i can't find a menu where i can put that code. i want this phone to work with GSM operator.

  • We have a solution to unlock the LG LEON from Metro PCS. You can visit: unlockscout c o m under Carrier. There is the metroPCS unlocking app tool Also you can use the livechat. If you have some question

  • Why LG Leon is easy to lowbat?

  • ?

  • Please help me

  • Please help me

  • It is a mid/low end phone however, it runs incredibly smooth!! The camera is what it is. Not so fond of the back buttons and music player could of used an EQ. But I really like the phone very sleek design! And the software runs smooth specially for Android!

  • Which phone is better for metropcs. The LG Leon it the LG f60.

  • Is the LG Leon good for gaming and is it better than the f60. I also was choosing between the Leon and f60 but a lot of people have problems with both phones and a lot of people don't for metropcs

  • i have this phone, its locked to metropcs, i want to use other carrier, but i can't unlock it. even though i have the unlock code, i can't find a menu where i can put that code. i want this phone to work with GSM operator.

  • I just got one for free at T-Mobile. I had a LG G3 that I really loved but it got stolen. I decided that I would take advantage of their 2 lines with unlimited everything offer and get a second phone to tide me over for two weeks until I could afford to pay the $175 to get my 32GB/4GB Ram replaced. I am a power user and you would never believe how many apps I had on my LG G3 and what I did with it. That is probably the biggest reason that I hate this LG Leon. I am too spoiled and expect too much. But I think these days, 1GB of ram just doesn't cut it. For that day only, they were giving them away. Do you think they would do that with a LG G4? An iPhone? Samsung S6? The fact that they were giving them away, I think says it has problems. I cannot believe how many problems I am having with it and how slow it is. It's just going to be a back up phone. So I guess I can deal with it for another week. Not impressed. At all, even for a mid level phone. I had an LG F60? That did much better.

  • But do yo notice a huge difference between the lollipop and kitkat. Also is the camera on the f60 a whole lot better than on the Leon. If it is I was thinking about getting the f60 with an SD card and upgrading the kitkat yo lollipop.also have you experienced any problems with the leon

  • I had the same decision to make. I will tell you the f60's camera is superior and you can expand the memory to 32gigs with an SD card. My fiance has the f60 while I chose the leon which is comfortable for smaller hands/frames. Good luck.

  • Down to $69.99 at Best Buy. Now you're making sense.

  • i have been trying to decide which phone to get from metropcs and it has been hard to choose. its been narrowed down to the lg leon an lg f60. the leon has lollipop but a bad camera and the lg f60 has small storage and kitkat but has 1080p and a decent camera. WHICH SHOULD I GET. I AM SO LOST

  • Yes, very frustrating. Have you found a solution?

  • Is anybody experiencing slow data i open up my txt app and takes forever to open also my other apps do the same even try going on web nd takes long to load?? What can i do to fix this..its suppose to be faster but runs a whole lot slower then my other phone im tryna make a call nd phone app takes awhile to open just to even dial numbers...smh what can i do?

  • Just bought a new one...YES IT DOES...Maybe LG is changing things as they sell the older units???

  • Why on earth would you call a Leon an Upgrade from a f60...I'm taking my Leon back for a full refund to get the better f60 camera...can't stand the Leon being out of focus on EVERY PICTURE...I'd rather pay money than deal with FREE FUZZY PICTURES...I now have to carry my 4 yr old 39$ LG ms695 to get quality pics I can actually see detail worth printing or posting...its like a bad pair of shoes 😄

  • Phone has a pretty long battery life, pretty long time to charge the battery, but the CAMERA ABSOLUTLY SUCKS!!!No matter what you take a pic of the outcome is fuzzy detail...I'm used to an auto focus LG MS 695...3-4 yrs old and the pics are 10 times the clarity in detail...The leon cannot take a picture of a business card and be readable...focus on less than 3' does not exist...the rest of the pics do not enlarge with anything close to 5 MP...Reguardless of the fast speed...ocasional freezing up...I like theLeon...BUT I WILL BE RETURNING IT TOLMORROW...WHAT GOOD IS A PHONE WITH A LOUSY CAMERA...The LG

  • Charging is slow only when the phone is charged through a USB Port(PC,laptop etc.), and it is set to "Media Device". The phone even tells you that it is charging slowly. Set it to "Charge Phone", or charge it through its charger. Mine goes to 100% from less than 10% in about 2 hrs.

  • this phone is horrible! The guy at the PCs store told me that it was awesome that I should buy it. The camera sucks it doesn't focus. the only thing that I really like about this phone is the fact that it has a print button. My old phone didn't have that in me selling on eBay, it helps other than that I can't take the pictures that I need to take to list on eBay because barcode doesn't scan. &, it overheats. Drains so quickly and takes forever to charge! Can someone help me please!

  • Yea I have the exact same problem . the battery takes a very long time to charge and it drains very quick. The keyboard is bad too. The auto correct does not do a proper job and the text swype and word suggestions as well . I think it's cool though because I'm basically getting my money back from the rebate so I feel like this phone was free lol

  • How did you get rid of bloatware and metropcs boot animation. Amd how do you root the LG leon

  • Wait so the camera on the phone can be made better with the stock camera app. And how did you root the phone and get rid of the metropcs animation. Thats what I have been trying to since I got the phone

  • Go to settings on the stock camera app and switch the resolution higher for the camera and video recorder. The full resolution isn't active out of the box. I rooted mine and it's fricken awesome. Got rid of the little bloatware that was on it and the annoying metro pcs boot animation. Pretty good phone

  • The lg Leon is just a generic version of the Lg g2 g3 & g4. I don't know what y'all expect out of a low budget phone smh you get what you payed for. I owned a g2 and now the g4 I have no problems with my $600 phones. Camera is excellent back and front I doesn't have a battery life is outstanding. Y'all should just upgrade or stop being cheap. Until then don't complain.

  • Is the camera really that bad. I thought the vga would front camera would be the only problem but is the back 5mp camera bad too. Aren't they good if you have them in good lighting.

  • I've owned it for about a month and am fairly impressed. It's awesome if you get the rebate and it's free. It's probably worth the $49 after - except for the cameras. The battery was a concern when purchased, but with the use I put into it, I'll get 2 - 3 days (WiFi 4 hrs daily, Location 2 hrs, Bluetooth 2 hrs. Phone chunky compared to Nexus I trashed, but much cheaper. Smaller screen, but not bad. Loaded barcode readers and Google Camera to try and have it read barcodes with no luck. Don't do selfies much so front camera not issue, but it can't focus on barcodes. Other images just so so. 8GB of internal memory fills fast I don't seem to have much on and I'm done to 1.8GB left. Eats up 4.4GB in System Data-WTHeck? Runs pretty fast and multi-tasks well. LG Keyboard runs choppy, but it can be replaced. 3rd LG phone I've had and pretty much happy with them. Not happy Android updated Nexus into constant self starting loop, but don't see an issue with this Leon. So except for the cameras, it's a keeper.

  • Camera is beyond bad. Flat out unacceptable. My previous 3 phones have been LG. Optimus V, L9, and F6. All had acceptable cameras- yes, even the Optimus V. The Leon's camera is so bad, it won't even read barcodes! Everything comes out blurry. Maybe I received a bad unit, I can't be sure, but it is terrible. I don't see how a phone released in 2015 can have such an atrocious camera. It has 48 minutes of talk time, still within the MetroPCS return policy, so it is going back... I'll switch to my old F6 until something acceptable comes along. Awful product, LG!

  • So it seems like people don't want the Leon and people do want the Leon. I'm thinking about getting it for games,watching movies, faster speeds, and videos or pics to post on social media. Is this the right phone for me to get at its $50.00 price. Please let me know why you think I should or should not get it

  • My Lg Leon has only 4GB internal storage what is that? are LG not Standard on there specs????

  • The camera is VGA officially refers to only 640x480 pixels with 16 or 256 colors, and the resolution after you take a picture is bad, can play music MP4/H.264 player,MP3/WAV/eAAC+ player, if you have defferent format it will not play...and you should buy the LG compatible charger it takes 2-3 hrs to be fully charged.

  • Yeah it does

  • Mine takes for ever to charge any body else have that problem

  • I downloaded Music Downloader Pro app free on google play i click the goolge music widget to listen

  • Hey, I'm having problems playing music on my phone too. I also downloaded another music app and it didnt work. I'm going back to store and see if theres something they can recommend. I looked through the guide book but no instructions on how to play music.

  • No song to play keeps popping up and makes my phone useless.

  • yes i just bought my phone a few days ago n its doing the same thing did you get yours fixed????

  • What format is your music, MP3 or WMA? I have found that WMA will not work on this phone, but MP3 will.

  • The camera on this phone sucks. It says its 5MP, but the resolution once the picture is saved is very poor, and splotchy, with lots of jpeging. There are no save quality settings other than the resolution, and it doesn't seem to matter what resolution it's set to, it still looks really bad. I had an LG Motion, which also had a 5MP camerao, and the picture quality on that was much better. The picture looks pretty good in the viewfinder before taking pic, but then when picture is saved, the quality is very degraded. Working from this, I experimented with just taking a screenshot of the preview image before taking an actual picture - and that saved screenshot is of better quality than a saved picture of same thing. Considering that the screen resolution of this phone is 480x854, thats only 410kp, or 0.4MP - and the screenshot is better than the 'supposed' 5MP camera! I got this free with LG Motion trade in, and I realize that its basically a cheapo phone, but I think they need to be more honest with the specs - there's no way the images saved with this camera are truly 5MP. With my LG Motion I could take pics of entire sheets of paper and when zoomed in, the text could be easily read, with this one, no way. A smart phone is used in all kinds of situations, and scanning/photoing documents is one of them. It's not feasible to do this with this phone. The other negative, perhaps not as important, is that the screen is pretty dark, especially in daylight, and for some reason it won't go full brightness, saying that the phone is overheating. It does this a lot, even when I'm not using the phone, and it deosn't feel hot or even warm at all. The LG Motion would get very warm, and still never did this. I tried to bring back to corporate store, but was given a run around about not being ready for exchange. I tested the floor model for picture quality and it more or less had the same spotchy jpeging, even on the highest resolution. Very frustrating all around. I'm hoping this can be fixed by rooting and installing a camera with greater control over how images are saved, or, that there's a firmware update that addresses this.

  • I agree I'm going from an iPhone and I like it

  • I bought this phone on June 4th and used it until June 19th. I loved this phone, It reminded me of a mini G3 almost, one problem is that it will now not boot up at all! Metro pcs said it was a software issue. To me that is horrible luck for me, or a horrible product. So if you rely on your phone for everything like I do, I would recommend something more reliable.

  • The circle is the home button

  • There are better options for this price range. The screen has a very noticeable yellow tint, I talk about this and other phones that have similar performance at half the cost in my video review.

  • I want to return it. My samsung lite had a way better camera.

  • I want to return it. My samsung lite had a way better camera.

  • I just got it and even though i am going from a LG G3 to the LG Leon, I still like it, for a small phone it has a lot to offer. I gave it a 10.... :)

  • what I observe is dat this LG Leon if u receive music via sharing media app it won't play on d phone except u download or receive through Bluetooth

  • Over Heat? Why? Or its because of lolipop? Or What?

  • Purchased Lg Leon 6/8/15 and today still searching for way to play music. Music app will not work...message "song can not be played". Has anyone else experienced this problem?

  • my lg leon overheats and i cant use it until it cools down the screen gets too hot to touch i only had the phone for a week

  • It does, it's software.

  • Looked at it in a T-Mobile store. Chintzy screen rez!!

  • it's on the back. or you can just double tap the screen

  • Obvious no, as it doesn't have home button.

  • Turn off ur data and use only wifi. Hope this helps

  • This phone will work to make basic calls, but it is laggy when switching apps. My two year old Droid Razr M was far faster when new and I expected this phone to be comparable in web browsing ability, but it isn't. It gets hung up often on web pages and freezes for 30 seconds to a minute. Replaceable battery and micro SD card slot are nice features and so is the price (usually free with promotions). It isn't fancy, but it is decent for being a lower-end phone. Battery life has been good in my experience but the camera hasn't; pictures look lower than 5mp resolution. It is a low priced phone and has the feel and performance you would expect in that segment.

  • How often do you have to change the battery. I hope I don't have to change the battery anytime soon

  • I got the phone yesterday through metro pcs. I Love it. When calling someone the volume can be low. I don't think it's bad I think you can still here the person just fine. Watching YouTube video better be in a place with no noise or invest in a Bluetooth speaker other than that the phone is very awesome

  • How do you take the back off of this phone? It will not come off and I need to change the battery!!

  • I really didnt want this phone cause i had the hydro life and the sound quality on that was way better then the leon for it bieng almost brand new i wouldve thought the sound would be better...still got my hydro life nd side by side same song the life takes out leon...kinda dissatisfied.

  • Does Leon have a led notification light??? Im trying to choose from leon and moto e 2ndgen. Its been 2 weeks, i cant decide :(

  • I have the same problems with my phone black screen :(

  • I received this phone as a gift less then a week ago and the screen has died. I can see it light up but it remains black. Bringing it back to exchange today. Guess we will see if the next one craps out on me.

  • How do i improve the sound of my LG LEON?

  • I have this phone on metropcs in the US. Its 4h LTE and definitely has an sd slot.

  • HOW TO GET TO MICROSD SLOT To get to the microsd slot you have to take off the back cover and look at the right side, it is hidden in the edge of the bottom right corner. It's a little notch in the side. The microsd card slides right in. I was panicking too, I bought it this afternoon and thought I'd made a huge mistake.

  • I do know metro pcs offers only one gigabyte for the hotspot I'm ok with that

  • How is the call clarity? I love the style I want to have the metro pcs service I had metro pcs before they are not bad. I just need this phone for calling mobile hotspot and texting unlimited. Is this the phone for me?

  • I also saw the Techradar review, but it is incorrect. I have this phone and can confirm it has both 4G LTE and microSD.

  • I'm curious as to why you say the camera on the moto g is way better. From what I've seen the 5mp moto g's camera suffers from way too strong noise reduction which decreases the details on the photos. The Lg Leon on the other hand does suffer from oversharpening but that can be resolved with 3rd party camera apps which allow you to turn down the sharpening. I haven't had my hands on a moto g, so I've formed my opinion based on what I've read and the photo samples I've seen online. Is the noise reduction not that much of an issue on the moto g?

  • I'm confused!! The other major online reviews say it is 3G only in the US, and there is no micro-SD slot. Please clear this up for me, before I make a mistake.

  • I beg to differ with the guy and his LG volt. Scored 13626 in Quadrant standard. 36+ Mbps on Speedtest. Display is good. 5MP camera is junk, lacks detail. The 5MP camera on my Moto G is waaaaaay better. I find the Leon to be quite snappy performance wise. No problems moving stuff to external SD card. Yes the back buttons are a bit awkward, I keep pushing the camera lens but I don't have any problems accidentally hitting a side mounted button and kicking myself out of a game. All and all I'm quite happy with it. If you want Lte on the cheap this is the ticket. Oh, get a case the back cover dings pretty easy.

  • Yes it does

  • Do you know if I can send MMS (picture messages) with WiFi? I am currently connected to a wifi network and every time I send an MMS, it uses my data. Any feedback on how I can get WiFi to send them instead?

  • It does have a roaming option on the data settings. :D

  • Yes, it does...

  • I don't think so. :( Also, not flash lights will pop up when charging.

  • Am I able to send MMS (picture messages) with WiFi? I am currently connected to a wifi network and every time I send an MMS, it uses my data. Any feedback on how I can get WiFi to send them instead?

  • Day 3 with my new LG Leon and new carrier Metro PCS. A quick rundown comparing the Leon/Metro to my last phone/carrier, LG Volt/VM.[The Good] Metro PCS signed me up on the outstanding $60 unlimited 4glte plan and I received the Leon free after in-store instant rebates. Score. Plus I like the customer service, kept my number and have actual physical stores to visit unlike VM. Great carrier/plan so far. The phone itself is kinda underwhelming despite being free and on a newer version of Android OS than my Volt (5.0.2 is not that much better than 4.4.2 imo) - it's $100 retail price without rebates is still fairly good seeing how I paid $209 for my Volt in March and 2 years before that $200 (after $60 instant rebate) on a dual core 4.1.2 JB Samsung Galaxy Victory 4GLTE (with a much better display, smaller but crisper, 5mp cam and Apps2sd being completely locked down by VM making storage a joke). HOWEVER [The Bad and/or The Ugly] the charger is a piece of junk, not data transfer quality but the old school type that doesn't use a USB to mini USB cable like every other Android phone I've ever had. Charges so slow that it will actually lose energy if you try to use while charging. No lies. Storage says 8GB but you actually get less than half that around 3.5+GB. Welcome to Bloatware City. Population: You. Lags. Not initially. But within 12 hours of activation and 1.5gb of space still available it was lagging so bad I punched myself in the face. Hard. Again, no lies. Display size and quality, front/rear cameras and battery all lose to the Volt hands down. 5.0.2 isn't worth a new phone, especially with a rooted 4.4.2 with TWRP/CWM recoveries, custom ROMs/kernels in progress (even a Cyanogenmod 12.1 in beta albeit unofficial). My Volt kills this new watered down discount 4GLTE LG Lollipopper. [My advice] Free is a very good price. Not a dollar over $50 if you must. The LG G Stylo is only $200 with $50 rebate. And much more bang for your buck. And it's not half the device the Volt is (LG Optimus L90 is virtually the same phone with 5mp camera and a couple minor differences, available at Metro) - the plan makes this phone worthwhile. Still it's merely my backup phone and a proxy to channel truly unlimited 4glte data to my wifi bound Volt (and probably my SG Tab 4). 5.5/10 - mostly for carrier features and not the phone itself.

  • if viewed all good specs but weakness,only the front camera still is VGA and 1900 Mah battery,does not correspond with the price of 1,5 Million or 2 Million.

  • King root will root the phone

  • coles 10 dollars phones are the same charger with telstra

  • does anyone know the code for the hidden menu on lg leon lte ms345

  • I just upgraded from the f60. Has anybody else had any issues with the sd cards? On my l70 or f60 i could transfer most of my apps but everytime i try with the lg leon it says not enough storage space when i have 30GB left. Besides that issue its pretty good. Especially for the price. They shouldn't have moved the control buttons to the back. It's awkward.

  • It's not a power house but for the price its perfect. Its not a photographer dreams phone but being a fixed focus 5mp camera it does ok in good lighting but this camera is not for close up shots since it lacks auto focus.. The ram and rom is ok. Lollipop still has a few bugs but if you turn off animations it runs smooth. It lags very little seeing it only has 2gb but I've learned if you want the best android experience you need to you a phone with at least 2 gb of ram.. The front camera isn't the best but in good lighting with the flash on its ok. It has WiFi calling and voLTE and fast LTE on Tmobile. The display is nice and compact. The call quality is excellent with voLTE.the speAker is loud.. LG has always made good lasting products. So if you want a phone that does all the basics well then this your phone. If you want better then don't buy this phone and just complain abt what's wrong with it. If you want better then spend more money.. This phone was free for me on metro pcs which uses tmobile.. I pay 60 a month truly unlimited

  • I have had the phone for a couple of weeks now and I enjoy using the phone, for what I use the phone is perfect, don't need a $600 or $700 to text,e-mail, netflix picture taking this phone does all that, with wifi calling capability and the sd slot up 32gb for storage the price I payed at t-mobile was just what I was looking for. Takes great pictures like all the features that it comes my perfect phone.

  • it is real that lg leon has 8gb internal memory, the thing is ofcourse the system also needs memory to able to function, you cant use the full 8gb memory only for apps but also for the system of the phone.

  • Upgradable to v5.0.2 Removable battery

  • It does have an SD slot, up to 32 GB Micro SD card.

  • The back camera sucks

  • I like this phone... It has great specs and it's affordable. But I'm thinking about the capacity of this phone in terms of micro sd slot. Is it worth it? Or should I go to Samsung j1?

  • Does this phone have a roaming capability if so how do you set it

  • Do you think it will receive Android m?

  • I cant say best but this is one of the best specification. I was looking for Cortex 53A+ CPU and andreno 300+ GPU on low price

  • No Gorilla Glass? Confirmed to have compass sensor? Also, how come this has compass and Spirit doesn't (according to GSMArena specs)?

  • Well, that's because the OS itself takes some of the storage. Manufacturers tend to give the total capacity rather than the free storage.

  • Dear all.LG Leon. Users. N LG USERS You have to accept. That LG Has great technology. Its can't. B comparable to any other brands. Because.When.LG lunch. His new product. They give you latest. Technology n latest. ui every. Time As comparing to Samsung. Sony. Htc Micromax. Red mi lava karbonn. Gionee intex. If don't. Believe. Me so you have to try only one time. You get a better. Result Guys I am using lg before. 10 years

  • Where can i buy charger for this phone? I want the original LG charger. I hate fake product, they just make me frustated with their quality.

  • using this phone for a week.. battery is so so.. ui is good.. my unit is 3g, internal memory is 4gb only.

  • i've just bought this phone yesterday and i believe it's a removable battery. the user experience is good and the UI was great.

  • Battery removable for sure. Very nice phone especially for this price.

  • I believe the battery is removable. It's separately listed on the package contents on the official LG product site. Also, I've read somewhere else already about it being removable. Since LG had changeable batteries for all models since some time now, I don't think this one is an exception.

  • Yes it has SD slot up to 32 G memory card

  • It does not have :(

  • No

  • Excuse me, but is there a SD card slot?

  • Does it have notification LED?

  • LG Leon 4G LTE (H340n), have Snapdragon 410, and Adreno 306 inside. 3G version is Snapdragon 400 and Adreno 305.

  • It is 8GB but don't forget that system takes also the space, so you'll have about 4,5gb left wich is normaal for an 8GB android phone.

  • What do you mean when mentioning that the 8GB internal memory is not real? I wish to purchase the LG Leon, but would love to learn more experiences....

  • They said the battery is not removable and it comes with 8 gb internal memo. Well....this 2 things are not real. But is a great looking phone, fast one too. I like his titanium black back cover, it feels nice in hand! And it have a loud speaker, wich is great for videoclips and music. It sounds great too.

  • It have the Adreno 305 GPU

  • Someone can tell me what videocard it have?

  • Someone can tell me what videocard it have?

  • the lg leon is lg h345?

  • LG phones are becoming more and more popular. The 2014 selling results confirms this.

  • I think lg will improve its position in the cell phones market.They are representing new phones one after the other with reasonable price tags.

  • Lg is the best phone maker nowadays. Here in Iran all their phones are made in korea and this is one of their advantages over others.By the way I like their design more than others.
