LG Optimus M - User Reviews

  • i buy it in 2011, i still love it, frodo android was love at first was my time smartphone.

  • Do i have to pay contract every month for this phone

  • I have used this phone for many years. Made thousands of calls and text. This a great durable phone if u take care of it. Its my best phone/most durable phone. I still use it.

  • might be get some water damage. The battery I mean. thats what I got..

  • maybe its just me but the battery life is terrible and i only use it for texts and calls

  • its a great beginner phone. dropped it a milllion times still works even dropped it in a puddle of water and yet it still works. could use flash upgrade and some apps like to not work %50 of the time such as facebook and opera mini might just be my phone tho. service is ok not the best but what do you expect for $50.

  • Its a good first android phone make sure to update it so it would stop freezing and lagging and shutting down

  • Mine has 300 mh.. Sooo...

  • I love the phone. My first android phone. Does anything the top phones do. Dropped it a few times, no problem. Browses internet with 600 mhz processor pretty quick. I use 5 different screens for information. The battery lasts at least 8hrs, using the phone frequently. Watching movie, listening to music is good. The camera takes good pictures with the 3.2 megapixel camera. I am very happy with this phone. Would reccomend for low cost phone that can hang with the big boys!

  • This is my first android phone and I love it it does almost anything and everything.this phone can compete with almost any 3g smart phone.

  • It says the stand-by time is 337hrs... I have to keep mine plugged in over night just to keep it alive to use the alarm on it to wake me up. Else, its dead by morning. That's with no running apps and wifi/gps disabled.

  • If you actually read the specs on the phone. It says that it only supports up to 32gigs. So no it will not support 64gigs.

  • Not too impressed with this phone since it doesn't have flash for the camera and when it freezes when I try to end a call.

  • i had this phone for 6 months.this phone is awesome,....i have no complains from it...only problem is using web its slow but.....until i download opera mini from market...that makes ur web go super fast....Cheers

  • Can it support the new 64GB card can someone please reply thank you :)

  • dude! its a cdma phone it wont work on nepalese gsm networks. so it doesnt matter if its avaiable in nepal or not.

  • No it doesnt have a flash

  • Could someone tell me is it available in market of nepal?

  • Blutooth doesn't work well...my old motorola from 50 bucks works better...

  • where is the flash on the camera on this phone, does it have one? Cant find it.

  • Great phone, this is my first smart phone and I love it, yes I had to reset once, yet now I got the hang of it, I does all I need for a beginner and much more, good purchase and for the $50.00 plan with Metro PCS, sweet.

  • works better than I could have imagined and very quick. I bought it to see if the service was any good, boy was I surprised. excellent Phone, unlimited service for only $50.00 without a contract. this is the best deal around. Do not go nuts downloading many apps all at once as it can cause a phone freeze. Don't miss my BB Pearl at all, it is now just a good Mp3 player and photo storage device.

  • hi...i have this phone almost 3 weeks and i love it..i mean its really good if u want metropcs and wants to spend one time money on the phone...its an amazing phone....

  • Disapointed in the specs. Performs well for price. Manual clearly states that it has a performance level of v7 processor(800MHz),although it has the v6 processor(600MHz) V7 processors can run flash(adobe 10.2) the v6 can not. Only reason I bring it up is this was the reason I got th LG Optimus in the fist place was for flash(better games&video play)! This point aside this phone is awesome. Fast and nice screen(touch screen makes up for v6 processor). 512Mb ram doesn't hurt. Music play back flawless. Camera is sweet for 3.1mp. Other then points stated great phone.

  • Well, You tube playback slow, can never get a wi-fi connection, 3g?. good apps. it could use an upgrade!Not bad for the price or plan.

  • i just want to ask if you can post their prices as well. thanks.

  • I recentlly set up the canlender to the lg optimus m and when I did that it deleted all my contates and if i try too add to someone to the phone it wont let me what should I do now help me

  • This is my first smart phone and I am hard to impress , however this phone does a good job of getting my attention. I am not geek when it comes to phone network use however I have been having fund with it and it has opened my eyes to what i have been missing. In the future I look forward to upgrading my phone and passing this one along to my wife (chuckle) she uses a cellphone to talk to me when I call or to make requests when I am shopping. Although she is more limited then I am I get the feeling this will open her eyes to it's other uses as well as it did for me. So far I love it!

  • Well... After everything I've read, this is a good starter Smartphone... especially for the price and the plan price. I'm with Metro, and I have the Lg with a metro op sys. it works... and nice looking, but web sucks... so I'm hoping the optimus m will be the anwser. This day in rock

  • good phone moves faster than the android m860

  • is this phone good buy?

  • This phone is great you just need how to used u can download a lot of app via market i loved it i don't miss my iphone the 150.00 plan hahaha

  • Not work... The txt, no apps no nothing!

  • My first smart phone, my girlfriend got it for my christmas gift.EXCELLENT! The youtube playback is slow.

  • Does.

  • Do these have a music icon..??

  • Is the best phone for MetroPCS users who really need a smart phone. If you are into email and productivity, get the BB 8530, if you are into that, and more like apps and gaming, get this phone!!! Loving it every second of it!

  • it's a really good thing
