  • You gotta use bluetooth, once you send it, put "use as ringtone". The size cant be more than 40mb or less, So you have to custom that ringtone and make the quality 40kbps(horrible).

  • umm... its 2013....

  • Dis fone realy sucks! Browses slow, 2go, whatsapp, skype n every new social ntwk is nt accessable! Wata waste!

  • cant download whatsapp

  • cant download whatsapp

  • cant access tv

  • This was by far the best phone I ever had. I would have never ever upgraded this phone if it wasn't for the fact that my 2 yr old decided to sneak it into the swim pool. It is really sad that because it is old and it is water damaged, nobody will bother with it. I am really happy with my BB now, but i still regard this LG with respect.

  • true the battery is shit somew time

  • I've been tryin to use 2go on my phone but it doesn't work, pls what can i do cos it's asking me to allow network access.

  • This phone has been good to me. Apparently, it's a really bad phone for most (Where the screen is failing in many ways, shapes, or forms) or it freezes or just totally stops working. I've had it for almost three years now, and the only problems I've had was occasional freezing. I guess I've gotten lucky. It still runs perfectly and the touch screen is still sensitive and clear and bright. The battery capacity for me also seems to have stayed the same - a measly 2-3 hours for talk time but it still charges from dead to full in about 45 minutes. Oh, and the LG Xenon model I have does have a front facing (secondary) camera, however, it can only be used for video chat.

  • this phone really realy suck battery only last 15 minutes

  • How can update the drive software?

  • HOW can i activate the bigpond??

  • Why does no one know how to spell?

  • drops calls. touch sucks. gets confused if used fast,

  • where can i get screen coz touch alread dead

  • no i don't think that you can use whatsapp on the lg xenon because it is a 2009 phone and wattsapp was not around those times.

  • y cant i use muzic as my ringtone huh....suckz bad

  • I've been using this fon fr 2 weeks. It sucks, i cant do whatsapp, twitter, facebook and 2go*. it really sucks. am out.

  • i realy love this fone but i find it impossible to downlaod with opera mini amd any application at all other than the phone browser and the same applies to using 2go application.please what can i do to be enjoying this things...

  • My friend had this phone and I was texting on it to see if i liked it I did a lot. Eventhought the keyboard wasnt all that roomy you can still text fast. I would like to know where I could get the best price on it.

  • This is one of the best phone i ever used, but i just want to know why it usually restart when i want to lunch certain applications?

  • It's a great phone. but i have problems using chat applications like 2go and whatsapp. what should i do?

  • This is the best phone i ever bought. I have trouble hearing. ( work enviorment) This phone is so cool i put on the speaker and i can hear better than the I PHOne i got rid of. I now use The I PHONE for an I Pod. Just ordered a spare battery This phone has many great features. Nice looking also. I have no Cons on this Phone . LOVE IT.

  • The reason there is no processor specs on this phone is that its not an android smart phone, at the time of release processing speeds and versions were not marketed to consumers. This Website is actually very useful - I have been selling phones new and used for years now.

  • Yes there is a spot to insert your sim card

  • Processor is 720mHz

  • these spec reviews are pretty damn useless if you ask me. They dont even specify the processor type used by the phone... and these phones are basically computers now so the type of processor is very important

  • i want to purchace

  • I want to update my gr500

  • is there a spot where i can insert a sim card?

  • actully they do have a site so your felling drove

  • Is this phone a smart phone? Thank you!

  • Is this a smart phone?

  • could you facebook chat on it?

  • Does anyone knows the proccessor and RAM of this phone?

  • The phone looks good but its standard keyboard easily lock.

  • I love the fone but I dont like it because the fone doesnt allow 2go chetting, why??????

  • its a simple phone..i like it cos its a bad ass.....yes ringtone prob is norlam in all at&t phones..and the lg gr500 is alrigth..using the phone for like &months now ..may be cos i maintain phones well,cos am using a nokia e61 with it..it great

  • i've had this phone for 2yrs. LOVE IT! i use music as ringtones all the time. (i have at&t for my carrier.) the problem w/the ringtones is they can only be a certain length. i have had to use "roxio" to get a certain portion of a song to that length before. (but i would imagine any program would work. as long as it's not apple-based!) i have found i can use a micro-USB converter & directly connect my phone to my computer. all my music downloads to my microSD card. if i can pull it up under "ringtone", it works. if i can only pull it up under "audio" (in my files), it's too long. then i have to adjust them. they can only be about 10sec long. i can also make text notifications, but they can only be about 5sec long. hope this helps!

  • That is a problem with DTMF. Basicly the DTMF tones are not making it to the far end. It could be a problem with your carrier because DTMF is sent out of band as in it is not sent over the same channel as the voice conversation.

  • i haveing the same problem even i m looking for the solution how to get my music files as ringtone... if any one knows any solution or can link me to the software plz do send....

  • why dose this phones don't suport anti-virus and why can't you use music as ringtone?

  • I am having issue with this phone when using IVR. Any option the I select using the keypad, the IVR system does not recognize. This also happens when using the VM. example I am not able to delete my VM by pressing 7. Any ideas?

  • I had this phone for two years. THIS PHONE SUCKS!!! My phone is dead, so I charge it. I leave the room for 1 to 5 minutes and come back it's FULLY CHARGED already. I unplug it and it is dead again. When ever I text people it freezes, so i have to turn it off, then i turn it back on its dead! One time in class i have to take out our batteries from our phones and put them on our desks. After class i put the battery in, turn the phone on and it has THE DIFFERENT DATE and DIFFERENT TIME!!! When i talk on the phone it is fully charged. After a minute its dead! This is why you should never buy this phone.

  • through gsmarena,i discovered dat dis phone has 3g network.but my problem is where and how to on d 34 network.anotherone is if it can browe like nokia free (browsing)intence of other things,i don't have any other problem with d phone.i like it.

  • when i first got this phone it was cool an all buht something happened to the screen like when youh looked away youh could see this flashy thingie buht it didnt look like it was flashing when youh look at it. then when someone tried to call me, they couldnt hear me buht i was trying to talk, so i dont know wher or how to talk into it..

  • This phone friggin sucks. When I first got it, I really thought I had something; however, as soon as the screen broke (it was the internal screen) all of the colors scattered and that's when I knew that this phone was s@#! Then I got another one and this one was way worse then the other. The screen just started popping out because the glue was old and worn. I couldn't even wait for my upgrade day so i just went out and bought an HTC surround and ripped the LG xenon apart. That probably explains why at&t doesn't have this phone on their site anymore.

  • this phone is horrible. me and two of my friends have it and we are ALL having different problems with is. the plastic screen on mine is currently lifting up and after showering with it on the counter, the condensation has actually ruined the screen and i can no longer use it. my friends are experiencing random coloring issues etc and their screens dont work. i do not suggest it.

  • I got this phone for Christmas in 2009. So I've had it for about 17 months. When I first got it, it randomly froze when I was sending texts, and when I pressed the middle button right under the screen it would flash. It stopped freezing so much but then after a couple months the screen flashed all the time and the keys started to scratch and parts of them started to chip and fall off. Also, it randomly turns off. I have dropped this phone about a dozen times and no scratches on the screen but, lately my calls and texts have been delayed. I would not recommend this phone. It is defintley starting to show it's age.

  • its a great phone and i love using it,....secially da keyboard an da flip is very good ,....and its not a piece of RUBBISH!

  • its a piece of junk! had nothing but trouble with mine ATT has replaced it 2 times & each one is worse than the last. this one won't hold a charge, I have to charge it 4-5 times a day my daughter has the same one will be talking & txting constantly and I'll be charging mine after just a few min.

  • i ordered a brand new one of these phones. i love the looks. and i think it will be fine. but i think i just need a little truthly feedback. can anyone help?

  • Ii ordered this phone in 2009 when it first came out and have had it for 2 years. While the touch screen took some getting used to, the keyboard is awesome and just the right size. after 2 years of use, the slider still feels great and all the features of the phone work like new. It is also surprisingly durable as I've dropped it several times with no case on pavement and it still works great.

  • I have had this phone for nearly 2 years and I havent had any of those problems with it ?

  • this phone is a POS it has no options for the average user. Im surprised you can make a call with it. Stay away.

  • I have had this phone for about 8 months now and find it really great APART from the fool that put the web button RIGHT UNDER the 'A' button.... very annoying while txting when you hit the web button by mistake and end up going to the net instead.... word to the wise... move the web button! Other wise the keypad is brillant!

  • Could someone tell something about the GPS, it is good in this phone?

  • Dis is one fone i find irrestible! Its battery life is second to none,super keypad,fantastic camera,highly sensitive touch-screen...its a must get!

  • 300kb is max size for a ringtone. You can use makeownringtone.com to pick any of your songs and crop them and bring them to the size you need. Good luck and have fun!

  • i ve bin using this fone for over five months now.problem...all of a sudden it now goes off without bin put off and the annoying thing about this phone is that you cannot use anysong on your playlist as your ringtone...u must download one unlike the KS 360.

  • Please help me, when i switch my LG GR500 on I only see the LG logo blinking and nothing comes to the sreen. how can i see the icons?

  • Yes, of course it does!

  • hi i have a lg gr500. and i can call or receive calls but i cant hear them and they cant hear me what can i do?

  • My parents got this phone (LG Xenon) for me for free, and I liked it for a little time, just because it was new. It's a different story now. Some things I dislike about it are: --The screen gets really light and it's difficult to read. --The phone randomly turns off and takes a while to turn back on. --The phone freezes in the middle of sending a message. --Awkwardly navigation. --Can't save unlimited messages. --Doesn't hold very many messages. --Camera is blurry (may have something to do with the garbage screen), --It takes me up to 7 times to send a single message. --It takes me up to 5 times to make a call connect. Some positive things include: --The screen is hard to scratch. --Bluetooth works well. --The sliding motion is smooth and quiet. --Charge time is fairly fast. --Battery life is good. --Occasionally, the multitasking capability comes in handy. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this phone. If you are going to spend money on a phone, do your research, and know what you want. Get a phone that will last. I am looking forward to getting a new one asap because this one is garbage.

  • Yes

  • Hello im really desperate to know .. thinking of geting this but dont know if the qwerty keyboard lights up wen you flip it up ? please answer [:

  • You need to make the sound clip less than 400 kb i think in order to have it as a ringtone

  • pls i cant make use of any of my music as ringtone except the in built ringtones.....pls help me out...

  • Dear ghost tell me with full description how to i set the mp3 ringtone from micro sd card////

  • Loved this phone at first. Only problem is the battery defect. It will randomly shut off when I talk on the phone unless its attached to a charger. when you turn it on it says low battery. So I turned it off and waited an hour and its full battery.

  • you cant set a ringtone from your memory card. you 1st have to save the mp3 on the phones music or ringtone file then u will get the option to put it as a ringtone

  • Hey guyz can you ppl tell me that can it store unlimited msgs??????

  • ive had this phone for a while now and i love it! the battery is awesome, the touch screen is wiked and it can take my memory card :) im soooo happy with it :)

  • it is a very bad phone,but the qwerty is wonder

  • hi there my husband owns one of thess phone and the touch has gone on the main screen it is just over 12 months old is that supposed to happen

  • I had this phone for one year 1 and the only reason why i had to get rid of it was becasue i broke it by dropping it in a cup of water. I never experienced the phones sounds going out or the battery dyin a lot. Just charge it every nigth while you are sleeping, then it will be able to last all day. and yes it did freeze up every once and awhile but you just take out the battery and its good as new. also the only holding 150 messages was a small pain. That was one of the only promblems.

  • the fone is gud!!only problem that it sometimes freezes when i play music and i have to take out the memory chip to unfreeze it and sometimes the person on the other line cannot hear me well wen i am talking!

  • How can I activate Call waiting in Xenon LG GR500?

  • How can i use my mp3 on memory card as ringtone on LG GR500.

  • Currently using the LG Xenon, I think it is a great phone, however needs Wifi

  • this commemt is true, i own lg xenon the media player is terrible. my 2gig memory card is not working and the mp3 song can't be used as ring tone or msg. alert...

  • I just got this phone about 2 months ago. I DO NOT reccomend anyone to buy it. Reasons: 1) Touch screen is terrible 2) Navigation in and around the phone is terrible 3) Battery life is not good 4) QWERTY could be better 5) Only holds, I think, 150 messages 6) Customization on this phone is non-existant (there are only 2 themes. 7) Ergonomics of the front screen in terms of placement of time, date, notes, etc... are not good. 8) Dialing a number with the touch screen takes a lifetime 9) Processor is poor; it lags and freezes.

  • the phone is good though it has short battery life nd no radio.i will nt recommend it for anyone who wants more in a phone.

  • My girl has this phone.... and it seems like it does freeze up, the touch is a tad bit dull. and for some reason it loses contacts. Never have got the media player to work, and I got a memory card too. Battery life seems ok ifyou don't talk on it. Internet is sketchy at best.i would probably rate this phone a 5 out of 10

  • To change ur phone ringtone go to phone->settings->audio and ring tunes->ring tunes->sounds, pick anyone u want. Hope it helps u guys!

  • LG xenon is available in chenni

  • Please can some one out there kindly tell me how to set ringing tones on my phone,it been 3weeks since i have got this phone but i can,t put a ringing tone from my micro chip card.my email adress is [email protected] or [email protected]

  • I do second the first comment, the phone is litteraly falling apart, the touch is not sensitive enough and it starts to stuck already, its been 2 month a a week since i have this phone. + i cannot get to change the ring tones other than the one on d phone itself it sucks!!! can't wait to get ride of it ! rrrrrrrrr

  • I have presently had this phone for almost two months and i have already been having problems. before i had this phone i loved it but it freezes a lot, the touch screen hardly works, the phone is already falling apart and the battery dies really quickly. i could charge my phone in the morning (7am ish) and around (10-11 pm ish)it would be dead. before getting this phone i didn't believe the bad review people gave because my friend had it and it was perfect until i had it myself. now i regret getting this phone but unfortunately i am stuck with it for 3 years and it has only been two months... i strongly do not recommend this phone

  • I like this phone.

  • hey, this phone is ok i guess i mean i ot watr i mine so it acts up alot. i hate that but other than that one problem its wonderful it is a touch screen phoe ht slides n has a keyboard what teenager wouldnt love love love this phone

  • Very good cell fone, but has no RADIO. The GR500 has all you need in a cell phone in the exception of RADIO.

  • Hi there, For your one sanity... Don't even think of buying that "CRAPP" For real... I'v been using it for about 20 days now and I feel so much frustration over that phone and the company who produce it... MAIN PROBLEMS : 1. it Freeze basically all the time (So when your expecting an important call it probably wont ring or tell you that you just miss that call...) 2. The "SOFT PLASTIC" touch screen is "SLOW" and "NONSENSITIVE" 3. The Phone it self is "MEANT TO BREAK" in millions of pieces (fabrics are 99.9% plastic) 4. The battery's life time is about 1 day (if you talk a lot then it's even shorter then that) On my side I think that the "VOTING RESULTS" should be more like this... Design 3 Features 4 Performance 2

  • it is a pretty great phone. I've had it for almost a year. Only problems is the message capacity. iot only hold 150! and if themessage is multiple pages it count that as individual messages. I text A LOT and it is a pain having to delete messages atleast 3 times a day. The battery life is ok. If you are constantly using it you made need to charge it every other day, or everyday. Depending on usage. I love the keyboard, kinda hard to adjust to at first but, it is good. Overall it is a good phone. Some glitched like it sometimes lags, or it freezes and randomly shuts down.

  • i dont like this phone it keep shut the touch screen goes out.

  • It is a pretty good phone. I really like the ease of use of the qwerty board. It will randomly shut at times if you open and close the phone too fast. I have had this phone for about a year and a half. Recently though the sound just stopped working. I can't talk to anybody incoming or outgoing calls. I take good care of my phones so I am not sure what happened.

  • hi guys i think im a bit interested in this phone cus its cheap and a communicator phone shud i buy it any suggestions

  • WORNG, it also comes in purple. the purple is only sold at bell though

  • I was pretty annoyed with the touch screen at first, was about to return it. After the application of a regular screen protector it was much better. The fact that you can't save more than 150 or so text messages is terrible, though, this IS a phone aimed at text messaging? You cant transfer them to memory card. And the buttons to access some web features are right on the keypad, I'd suggest getting we features blocked unless you have an unlimited data plan. Camera is blurry in anything except outdoors pictures. You might get lucky and snap a good one inside occasionally. Keypad is nice, keys are very small (this is on a PHONE).

  • the lg xenon comes in red black and blue. there are no other colors that it comes in that i know of. the cost will vary depending where you get it from. if you are getting an unlocked phone and not starting with a contract/at&t plan I reccomend using ebay.com this is where i got mine. I havent had many problems untill last night when I got a multimedia message it wouldnt play the sound so while i was wondering why this happened i went to all my sounds and audio and it wouldnt make any noise. i thought oh the phone is on vibrate thats why it wont play them. so i turned my volume up and still no sound... i tried calling from landline several times and it refused to ring. all it would do is vibrate for anything i went through all of my volume settings and everything to try to figure out the problem but it would not work. now its today and still not ringing/playing audio. not sure what the problem is i think the outside speaker is messed up because i can here perfectly fine when i talk on the phone. so i dont know what the problem is. when i bought this phone it was about $90. not to bad but a little high for a previously used phone...

  • The phone is amzing. I think anyone would be lucky to have this phone.

  • Has screen touch problems. I have handle my very carefully for a long time but touch problem suddenly occured and it was beyond repairs

  • Hey, this phone is good for the simple things but i dont recommend it if your looking for something a bit more up to date, its slow camers isnt that good, sound is good, touch is very touchy.

  • i actually think its a really good phone. for the first month it kept freezing and turning off, but now its fine. ive had it for 10 months now, and its an amazing phone. ive seen no problems, except for like i said the first month. i wanted the iphone cause of touch except i ahted typing on it, so its an amazing combo for me :) i just hate how the screen gets dirty easily, but whatever. only things i hate about it is how it can only hold like 200 texts, and the battery goes pretty fast. everything else i love.

  • the phone that have the most issue/touchscreen messing up/dropping calls/it is not a good idea to buy this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Boost Mobile is a CDMA carrier i think,so it wont work on a GSM phone like the Xenon.

  • Works good for me. A bit slow, browser's not great. Only 150 SMSes is a pain though.

  • i dont know what to do, get this phone or not helllppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

  • So, I need a new phone because mine won't hold a charge, and I really REALLY want this phone. My mom wants to look into it first and see what people rate it, so if you could post your honest review on how it works that would be great! (: thanks!

  • I have had my xenon for a little over a year now. I love the phone, but in the last few months, it has turned to crap. The screen is coming loose (I take very very good care of my cell phones), it drops calls, it refuses to send text messages for no reason whatsoever, it freezes up, and the internet is horrible: it never loads. This was a great phone until I'd had it for about 6 months. I'm trading it in this week.

  • can anyone tell me if you can lengthen the time this phone rings before it goes to missed calls? Mine doesn't ring for very long at all!

  • This Phone sucks!!!! It turns off randomly. The music player is horrible. I would not recommend this phone.

  • I love it!!!! I have one myself!!! It is by far my number 1 celphone!! LOL, LOVE IT!!!

  • This is one of the best phones i've ever had!! the only bad thing is the bad battery life!! one of my earlier lg phones had the same problem & one of my mates lg mobiles also had a bad battery life!! C'mon lg get the finger out!! & see if you can do something to fix this battery problem huh?

  • This phone is shit! The touch screen goes out, it shuts off multiple time threw out the day, and the screen is starting to detach from the sides (i have done no physical damage to the phone)

  • I have also read either very critical or very complimentary reviews about this phone. I've had it for a week or two now, and I'm very satisfied. I read a review that seemed to complain about having to press the screen too hard for it to respond. In my opinion, this is actually a positive feature, as on a lot of phones with very sensitive touchscreens, buttons are often pressed inadvertently. It's fairly simple to use, and as far as technology goes, I wouldn't have it any other way. I like it a lot, and it doesn't take long to become accustomed to the features and functionality.

  • The phone is decent. It has picture editing on the phone, thats pretty cool. As for the touch screen, its a bit difficult to use at times but mostly good. The web browser is its worst feature. Its usually slow (not because of the network) and somewhat fustrating. It has changeable home screens so that you can have your favorite contacts or shortcuts. You can use the mobile version of youtube and the cv for videos. Overall everythig is pretty good on the phone except for the browser. I suggest you find a free alternate browser on the web (bolt). I give it a 88% B+

  • Hello, I find its a decent phone. The touchscreen I find is a very poor resistive touch (Nintendo DS way superior, same with Nokia 5800), you actually have to press it a bit instead of just slightly touching. Battery life lasts a day on medium to light usage (disable 3g and it doubles, though it's lasted me 3-4 days on light usage; only did it a few days ago so not exactly sure, and my opinion on 'light' usage may differ). Ringtones don't work unless they're below a certain about of KBs and limited memory affects how many msgs you can store in your inbox/sent (I get around 100-150 in inbox before i have to delete). Predictive text is no where close to smartphone quality, so I turn it off. Keyboard is decent, but I prefer touchscreen keyboards (I type faster on em). Overall a good phone once you disable 3G. I don't use it for internet, email, or music but I assume it would be awkward to type a long email with this phone and that the battery wouldn't last a day if you use for online activities.

  • Should I buy lg xneon or smasung corby pro , someone please help !!! I love both phones I desparetly need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hey all you Xenon owners! I am in desperate need of some opinions, so I can get this phone, at the end of the summer, and I need SOME HONEST REAL opinions. Because reviews I read are all either REALLY good or REALLY bad. So can some people that own this phone tell me all the pros and cons? Because I take great care of my phones, so please just help! Thanks a lot, :D

  • i love this phone! its amazing

  • This phone is one of the best phones I've ever had In my life. It was my iPod, game center, and email. Of course I also used it to text and call. I think that this phone is best for teenagers because the QWERTY keyboard is one of the best that you will ever see.

  • ebay.

  • Love It. Freezes up maybe once every two months but besides that, no issues at all!!!

  • where do i get a screen for this phone. i'm from trinidad.

  • I have had this phone for about a month now.. I love it but hate it at the same time.. It takes great pictures and videos.. The bluetooth works perfectly.. But it is starting to freeze for no reason lately.. And the service is horrible.. You git no service at all where you should git at least three or four bars.. But.. I guess it is a good phone..

  • well i think it is a good phone i had it for about 1 1/2 years and it like i just got it.! but anyway... i want to know how do i put a code on it so no one goes on it

  • I had this phone I went threw two of them already in two months both screens went out very bad phone I promise!

  • I work Warranty for a large north american w.s.p. and I can tell you that I replace this phone more than any others in a day. they are all various issues. Have yet to see another phone with such a plethora of issues.

  • I used this phone for a few months. Things I don't like about it: 1) It's laggy (but that's expected from most touch phones) 2) Whenever I receive a text message, an alert pops up while I'm typing so I have to close the alert before I can continue (but I think that's custom with other LG phones) Before I got this phone, I thought a qwerty keyboard would be awesome and the touch screen was a bonus. However, after I've used this phone, I realized I don't like touch screens and I don't need a qwerty keyboard. (I don't text *too* much. I like T9.) That was my two cents. :)

  • thank you ladyboss but i noe the att one isnt a smartphone but is the one from rogers a smartphone? cuz my mom is wid rogers and i have to go wid her plan

  • there is not going to be a phone that no 1 hates different ppl hate different phones soo i say get which ever one u want cause same here im either getting the xenon or the impression im not sure yet

  • dont get it its wack i had it bought it 2 days ago already sold it get something else trust me

  • This phone is the baddest most horrible phone i ever bought. I wanted the phone so badly just like you guys and when i got it i was disappointed. The phone is cute and all but service wise it sucks i had it for att and tmobile.(Now you probably thinking it must be the service i had it for but trust me its not i have a blackberry 8320 and 8220 NO DROP CALLS) . If you live in a apt forget about making calls. Now if u live in a house u might get 2 or 3 drop calls through thats bout it. The phone is super slow when u pressing the screen it delays and many times freezes. Sending text messages sucks since keyboard feels so flat. Text messages do get send quick though. If your looking for a prepaid phone i suggest u get a samsung gravity, blackberry, nokia phone something nice and simple

  • the lg xenon is not a smart phone so u can get it. And i want it for my 13th birthday too. So lets hope.

  • I've had a lot of experience with different phones. None of them were perfect. I got the Xenon a couple of weeks ago. I dropped it twice and once in a pool. It still works quite well. There is enough space on the back to bling my full name, Athena Polanco-Tineya.Wow!!! This phone is tuly amazing. Buy it if you could. :)

  • i think the lg xenon is a great phone i love it!!!!

  • Got my xenon today, as I left my iPhone on the boot of the car and reversed out the drive way, I'll let u just imagine how it looks now. Really like the full keypad great for txrin, touch isn't as nice as the iPhone. And it sucks that there is no wifi. Over all though imnglad I got it...... Hope it stays in 1 piece.

  • nice phone but the down side is no wifi wifi would be good since it cuts down mobile internet costs

  • yes it is the same phone :) just different name

  • Great phone.,., the only thing i don't like about it is that it doesn't have wi-fy.,. but other than that,.,. it's a great phone =)

  • Seriously, I haven't had it for very long, but I've worked it over rather well (excepting data functions) and I haven't found a problem with it. Of course, if you abuse it, it's gonna start sliding funny. And which 'txtses' do you mean -- texting or chatting? But I digress -- I've had no problems with it, and reception is as good as the Razr it replaced, full keyboard is nice. I've been spoiled on touchscreens, so I found mine somewhat less sensitive than I would have liked, but it has to be tough and I've been dealing with Palm and Apple devices so my perspective is skewed. My new one has a very slight rotational play as it slides out, but nothing to worry about. However I would warn people wanting to USB connect this phone that it uses microUSB, not mini-B, which I don't think (but I could be totally wrong) is as common. Altogether not bad though!

  • worst phone i hate it i wouldnt get it cuz whenevr i slid it open it turned off so i got a new one then tht broke when i droped it once and now its asking for a sim card when i have one in it

  • man this fone sucks! i had it for a day before it cakked out on me! it wouldnt even do txtses. the screen started sliding out all wonky like. worst phone ever!! it doesnt even do messaging.

  • yea it does have instant messaging. I no cause I had one before I lost it at school. But fortunately, my dad is getting me another one.

  • I just got my lg xenon last tuesday and this is really the best phone ever. Good battery life, good camera, music player has excellent sound, texing is swift and easy with the full qwerty keyboard and so many other things are good about this phone. I love it!

  • I just got my blue lg xenon two weeks ago and i was really happy abut it. I got the texting plan and i was able to receive pictures ringtones and videos, but now just today i couldn't receive anything. I had to press get and download, but thefile wouldn;t work, and I can't send pictures and texts anymore. Please help

  • This phone is so sexy better than sidekicks cuz them dipps are wac now dis dipp is in the style now!!! Ducess

  • shit phone, poor feature. it looks good, but with poor features. 16GB card will slow the system down, camera with no ZOOM, could not display multi-language like iphone, when play video, cannot be full screen, black screen will be on each side. since the resolution size is 240*400, can only play 240*320 video... SHIT firmware, shit system....

  • I was just wondering if this phone has instant messaging, as in having a conversation box, or is it individually set? Because I'm thinking about getting this phone but if it doesn't have that feature then it's pretty much ruined for me.

  • I"m getting it for my bday or xmas , i luvvvvvv the blue 1 , its soooo pretty. P.S. My bday is 2 days after xmas!!! Lucky ME!!!!!

  • I really want it so so bad if there is any one out there please?

  • omg dis id da kewlest fone eva so getting it for xmas xx =]

  • I want it but my parents will not get me a phone. ":!

  • Hope by now you have sorted your issue with network. Just a tip that you might find helpful - Try accessing networks and make sure you are set to "automatic". That may help your handset locate your network. In most cases it should sort it out. I am presuming you are having no difficulties with sim cards from other networks. Good luck with getting it sorted.

  • YES! Not through any importer from what I can ascertain but it is mentioned on the Dick Smith website. www.pricespy.co.nz will allow you to enter a cellphone into the search and it will show you all locations you can buy it and list from cheapest to dearest. The only place I can find it is at www.dse.co.nz Select "communications" from top menu selection then go to "mobile phones" When the options come up down the lhs of the page select "Telecom XT handsets" Price is $500 but currently showing out of stock. Most likely they haven't come into stock as yet as this was first time I saw them listed. Doubt you'll find it anywhere else or as cheap if you could. The importers don't seem to be listing any. Don't be put off that handset is listed under Telecom XT as, as you probably already know, it's got the bands to cover Telecom XT, 2 Degrees and Vodafone. It's gonna be my choice too Ii think when it comes in so I'll race ya for one!

  • Here in Canada, video calling is starting to become more popular. Please forgive my ignorance with my question. Will the secondary camera on the front of the N97 work with msn messenger to do video calling as well?

  • Does anyone no if they sell these in New Zealand or will i have to buy one over the web?

  • 13? damn ur such a child u dont know wat money are worth for...

  • if you want to put ringtones on the Xenon it has to beunder 300 kb for it to work has a ringtone

  • I want this phone so badly , i told my mom i wanted it 4 my 13th bday or 4 xmas since by bday is 2 days after christmas , i really hope she gets it cuz its such an amazing phone and its so nice , im so in love with this phone!!!!!!

  • You can buy covers for the screens at radio shack, don't know anyone else. Just got my zenon and so far so good, I had the neon before and I like this one a whole lot more assuming it is reliable long term

  • Maybe you phone (spelled p-h-o-n-e) broke because it was appalled by you grammer and spelling.

  • pls answer asap !!!!!

  • everyone is telling samsung impression sucks and then they say lg xenon is the best ... and again the same comments that xenon sucks ... but which is the best phone that have a qwerty slide keypad with gps ????

  • That is in response to the defective that said: "ok so i got this fone ovr..."

  • i got a ringtone and i guess it was too big but i didn't know and i saved it and now every time i go on my sounds thing the phone gets frozen. its ridiculous.. and when im on the phone i can't use the dial pad so i can't delete my voicemail. :/

  • can u b quiet u european ppl r so rude geez

  • it safe ee.i got 1.sweet camera

  • ok so i got this fone ovr the summer as my first fone. no. do not get this fone if u want a cover on it. it just froze andi have a cell fone hard case on it and i cant even get it off without breaking my fone. its so stressful cause it freezes all the time and whenever it fall even like 3 inches it turns off and it never tells me when someone is calling. i want to switch fone rly bad but i have to pay for my new fone and i had to pay for this 1 and its just not worth it!

  • Jonathan, I've had this problem before on my Nokia N75, and the problem was that the addresses and settings for the MMS were incorrect. When I called AT&T to fix it, they told me different settings to use and it fixed it. Give that a shot and see if it helps. Chances are if phone and texting works, thats the problem. Goodluck

  • does this phone have mp3 songs for ringtones?? Thanks!

  • this is a phone, not your life.... if it breaks down, its probably your faul... not the makers

  • why not you buy another sim card(Diff. provider)

  • Hi guys i have the LG Xenon and i bought the unlock code on line so i could use my boost mobile sim card in it. Well the unlock code worked but now it's saying that i don't have any service so i was told i need to change my network but i really don't know how to do that so if you could please help that would help out alot!!!! thanks

  • preety good

  • is your phone unlocked? Because your software may not be compatible with your current service provider

  • Why won't it allow me to send or recieve pic messaging?? I got my phone two days ago and i love it but it says "service unavailable" when i try and send a pic. And when i recieve a pic it says something like it couldn't retrieve it. Whats wrong?

  • Hi i wanto to know if the phone can cut down the music itself? Or did you do it on the computer?

  • I have a Rogers branded Xenon and it doesn't have GPS. Also @Kevin, The favorites tab on the homescreen has up to 3 pages of 6 contacts, there are 3 dots at the bottom of the touchscreen that you can use to change pager.

  • All my ringtones are 35 to 55 seconds on my xenon

  • I bought my son and I the Xenon in May 2009, at first we loved it, but witin a month or two they BOTH shut off spontaneously in the middle of texting, reading texts, doing things on line, etc. It happens more and more often. It happened about 5x this week so far and on Saturday it happened 4x in one day! Very frustrating. Going to AT&T this weekend to see what can be done. Other than that, it's a great phone.....

  • i really like it!

  • HAha sorry guys made a slight mistake. The Xenon DOEs have Voice-Activation. Also, one more thing.. could be pro but i see as con. The menu's and displays.. they're very clumped up. Or better said, because it's so organized, it seems cluttered. But that's a preference issue. PS: To the guy with the shutdown issue, send it in for a warranty. That is a manufacture defect. I got two Xenon's and they work just perfectly fine. Personal question, how is the scratch resistance of the Xenon screens? And where can I find some nice, thin plastic cover sheets for it?

  • OMG are you serious, it shuts down ? WTF. it looks arlight but it sounds shiet

  • This phone is actually not disappointing. For the most part, it's a great phone. Pros: Very customizable in terms of favorites and contacts. The 3 homescreen menus are quite handy. The menu is very well organized into Communications, Multimedia, My Stuff (mostly for accessing miniSD), and Settings. The hardware used isn't so bad either. Great speakers and resoultion. And very WIDE range of usable formats (aka. mp3,mp4,wav,wma, etc.) ALSO, if the resolution is too bag and cannot display, it will at least play the sound for you (unlike other phones). Also, the scroll is just like an iPhone in that you can "throw" the menu and it keeps going.. sorta. Also, the OS is rather user friendly for the most part. Cons: The QUERTY keyboard is the only way to flip the screen horizontal. However, during video playback, you can rotate as well. The SYMBOLS menu is really retarded as some are located on the FUNCkeys and the other half in the menu. NO VOICE activation. The lock feature is retarded cause you have to hit it twice to activate when display is turned off. The FAV contacts is limited to 6 people. Overall, you'd be happy with this phone one way or another. My review is based on LG Xenon vs. Samsung Solstice/Eternity.

  • Hi ! I just got my red LG Xenon today and couldn't be happier. The QWERTY keyboard is very easy to use and the touch screen is very sleek and slender. It is very easy to text now. The only thing I dont like is the lock and it can be sometimes confusing but other than that, its the best phone i've ever had. I switched from T-mobile to AT&T, and it might've been the best thing i've done. Thank you.

  • why would you buy the same phone if it caused u problem before!?

  • this phone is the worst phone ever eg. it turns off if you close it a little hard.

  • Hi everyone, I'm thinking of gettting this phone, as I am due an upgrade, But am not sure of it qualities in use, can people who have this phone tell me a bit more about it? eg: how long videos last, how good the quality is? thanks, x

  • I just got myself a Xenon this week. I re-upped my AT&T contract having been month-to-month for a while with my old'n'busted Motorola Razor. Amazon Wireless made me an offer I couldn't refuse, and I picked up the Xenon for one shiny penny. So far, I'm really enjoying the phone. I get just about all of the benefits of an iPhone, and I don't have to pay a $15/mo Cool Kid Tax for unlimited data. I've loaded up all of my contacts and ringtones, set up my work and home emails (using iMobileMail and GMail, respectively). My old Motorola H500 headset is synced up tight, and I've had no problems bouncing files around with my Bluetooth-equipped laptop. Just about everything I've tried to do has just plain worked, which I have to admit is better than I expected. My wife was laughing at me earlier this week for being such a dork about my phone...now she is checking them out for herself and is peeved at me for getting the blue one that she likes so much. I found a site for us the LG Xenon owners looking forward to see you there.

  • the phone is amazingggg

  • I called at&t and they said that since theres 80mb of internal memory, theres room for 80000+ texts. Is that right?

  • Does this phone come with a USB cable to hook up to my pc

  • Great phone, except for it's capacity of 150 text message. You got to delete message by hand, it doesn't auto-delete older message when your inbox is full and when it's full, you can't receive anymore messages. Also, the phone threaded conversation view crash the phone when you are seing about 140 msg with one person because of the lack of ram.

  • The thing about the ringtones is that it can be no longer than 15 seconds. I know it supports mp3 format, but not sure of anything else. hole that helps.

  • it's beautiful telephone

  • There's no product advisory on this particular phone especially when it comes to touch screen. But, this phone Duplicates Address Entries in SIM Mode Only

  • u can get the lg xenon for 49.99 if u upgrade ur phone with at&t from wal-mart.

  • i just got this phone and i want to put like music ringtones but it doesnt let me do it with mp3 format, so i tried a WAV file but it did not work also. My phone is by rogers but i got it unlocked so i could use my fido sim card. Any help?

  • dear texter is that true that u r getting this phone for a 100 bucks.. can you send the name of the shop or place so i can order one for me! rgrds

  • when is rogers getting this phone in red

  • Has anyone experienced prob's with the touch screen wanting to 'rise up' or 'unglue' itself from the phone? I might just need a case for it...? I've only had it for 5hr's. Maybe I should have never put it in my pocket with the screen towards my leg, considering the heat might be the prob...? Feedback please. jim

  • This phone is great except for one problem........ you can only store about 150 messages on the phone.... Now who in the world put a qwerty keyboard on a phone, make the messages threaded so you can see it as if you're IM'ing on the computer, but limit the phone's text message capacity to 150 messages. Are you serious? AT&T & LG? Seriously???

  • i need help with my LG Xenon, i cannot open hi5, hotmail site and cannot watch youtube video

  • Im gettin this phone for $100

  • im really having trouble with this phone. The contacts are messed up. Dont even think about speed dial thatll just piss you off. But texting is great. O and it might have trouble deleting, sending pics and movies.

  • hi i am serviceholder. daily mail corrosponding is the most importent part of my job.is this phone suitable for me as i planning to buy it?is this allow me easy mail typeing and mail viewing .i hope to hair soon.regards/wasfiqur

  • im thinking about buying it plz plz tell me if its a good phone..im 15 just tell me how the phones working for...please thank you!

  • yes it has a camera. i can't wait to buy this phone, it sounds like its the best phone in the whole wide world. :)

  • i want one sooooo bad its not even funny!!! my family is really poor and iv been saving my money ever since it cane out! i might get it soon though!!! YEAY!!!!

  • this phone is so fantastic its not funny i love it. Especially that it is touch screen and that it slides! Its small enough to carry around anywhere and you can put in a next G sim card in it! I recommend it to mostly 'kids' and teens probably not..Hi, are you able to set an mp3 or other sound type as the message alert tone?

  • Yes it has a camera of 2 Mega Pixels with flash!

  • no you have to break it down

  • Hi, are you able to set an mp3 or other soundtype as the message alert tone?

  • this phone is so fantastic its not funny i love it. Especially that it is touch screen and that it slides! Its small enough to carry around anywhere and you can put in a nextG sim card in it! I recomend it to mostly 'kids' and teens probably not the adults with fat fingers:)

  • does it have a camera?

  • could you give me the price in us dollars

  • is it available in UK?if so how much?

  • I have one. It is just ok. Choppy voice. screen small and hard to use. The keyboard has ATT's shortcuts on it and if you hit one it tries to go onto the internet. VERY annoying, that really isnt LGs fault... I got the new iphone instead. I do miss the flash, but everything else on the iphone is better. This is a kids phone.

  • where do you get this pen/pencil

  • is this fone or the samsung impression better????

  • I was wondering say if you were to unlock the xenon would the gps still work?

  • Also, to set an mp3 file as your ringtone, you have to cut it down to under 300kb. If you have a media converter, you can simply convert it to the same file, say you only want like 30 seconds, and reduce the quality to medium, then put it on your phone. I recommend "Total Video Converter" as it does EVERYTHING. Hope this helps.

  • I had the same problem with my phone, but I have gophone, and if the contacts are on the SIM card, the phone will somehow mess it up. Also, you might want to try restarting it a few times, as this has helped me out.

  • Mine just did the same exact thing! I have no idea how to fix it and i would love to know how u unfroze it Thanks!!!

  • mine just did the samr exact thing? i have no clue how to fix it and it said nothing on the at & t website or in the phones manual? did u figure out how to unfreeze it?

  • How do u set a song as a ringtone? or a ringer ID??

  • GARY the phone u should get the LG enV touch in the store before july

  • How much is it?

  • Most carriers now block this feature on their phones, so you'll buy ringtones from them instead.

  • I thought this phone name as xenon because has xenon flash.. so funny..:D

  • how do you set mp3 as ringtone?

  • how do you set mp3 as ringtone?

  • can u set music as the ring tone???

  • I really like the phone!!! I am trying to find cheap music earphones for it and I suppose that the phone uses the same earpiece adapter as the Motorola V9.... but I would like to confirm that.... Would appreciate if anyone could answer this for me. Thank You

  • are there specific message settings that r needed to send and receive pics?

  • I have only had this phone for 2 days but so far I am LOVING IT! I couldn't decide if I wanted to go with this one or go with the Samsung Impression. I am really glad I picked this one especially for how much cheaper it is. One thing that I want to point out about this touch screen is that unlike the iPhone (which I had), you can use a stylus pen or any other pointed pen/pencil with it. Sometimes when I am on the browser my fingers are too big to click on a small link, this is where a stylus can be handy! Came across it's a very user friendly place for us the LG Xenon owners.

  • can it play mp4 format videos

  • you just take out your sim card and start the phone up then go to setting s and reset phone then put sim back in

  • Can you go on youtube on the LG Xenon??

  • Anonymous, Out of 10 it would be a 9 its a really good phone

  • how do you set mp3 as ringtone?

  • Allison, My xenon had a problem with the adress book also, the last contact you saved was the same number for all of them. I simply turned my phone off, waited a few seconds, and when i turned it on again it worked. if that dosnt fix it then idk... =^) hope this was helpful!!!!!

  • My xenon is frozen at this very second, ive had it about a week now and its been fine untill about an hour ago i was typing a text message and it randomly froze up. I went to the ATT website but that was no help at all. I have tried turning it off but the screen wont change from the unfinished text, and calling it dosnt help either.

  • love it lots of great features easy to use .it is the best of both worlds touch screen and full key board best phone for the price.

  • how do u guys feel about this phone what rate would u give the Lg Xenon out of 10? i'm deciding if i should buy this phone.

  • awesome phone!!!!!!!! i saw the functions and everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im getting one though!!!!! (might hehe)

  • which has only ever happened in my nokia phones!! My Sony Ericsson will still display the names even if there are 4 of the same in there

  • about your problem with the caller id; kindly try to change the settings of your phone book. the problem usually occur when there are more than 2 contact name with same mobile no.

  • Is it saved on your SIM or phone? It SHOULDN'T matter, but if the number is saved on your SIM, try copying it to your phone just to see if it works at all.

  • Do you have the area code stored for the users? I had that problem before with a Samsung phone, as soon as I added the area code to my contacts the name started showing up.

  • call your phone's provider. its either you paid for caller id or not.

  • I have now had two of these LG Xenon's one in blue and one in red, both are defective which really just pisses me off since the store is 45 minutes away from me and I don't go there often.

  • i just got this phone yesterday and i seem to be having problem with the caller id. the phone keeps on saying no name when i already have the person in my contacts can anyone please help me with this?

  • Janice, I heard that the Xenon is made from cheap materials, but you know how rumors are. How is her phone holding up? Does it still slide well, does it have nicks or marks on it? Not saying that I am hard on phones, but I think a young person makes a great tester for durability. :-)

  • Yep, I pay for my internet, no need for me to run down to the coffee shop to get on the net. Also there are still phones being made that will not play You Tube.

  • Dont go with the Impression I have it and Im always back in the store all it does is freeze up i can get tex messages but cant send them its a pain in the butt..Go with the Xenon my neice has it and she said its great thats what Im going with as well. Hope I helped you figure which one to get)

  • Well...I live in a big city and I don't need to pay for in internet because wifi is everywhere. Therefore, a wifi phone is needed.

  • does anyone no how much its costs

  • The phone has a nice qwerty keyboard, touchscreen, and no Wifi. No Wifi, no buy and the first thing you ask is, Can you watch youtube on it?

  • I have this phone and it rocks!

  • Can this phone sync with outook?

  • There are plenty of phones with wi-fi, what are trying to do, get out of paying for internet? LOL!!

  • Can you watch You Tube on this phone?

  • w/o wi-fi...???

  • This phone looks amazing! Today I went to BestBuy and it looked like a peice of crap! But I still want it!

  • I just got this phone and i love it! it has everything i wanted and looks great..

  • 500 contacts or more is a sure sign that s/he is in the flesh business... nyahahahaha

  • dose it have msn and intranet :) cheers

  • Looks like a nice phone for a teen except the poor battery life

  • .................and what is this phone made for? Duhhh!!!

  • thought it had good 8mp or higher cam but no xenon flash. n only 2mp . lol

  • Why in the world you need more then 500 contacts on a phone? Are you a drug dealer or something? LOL!!!

  • this is awesome i love it i so wish i had but i might get it idk so bye =(

  • if you want a phone that has alot of contacts then look at the sony ericsson xperia x1. it has practically unlimited contacts :) i hope i helped :)

  • why very low number of contacts (500). talk time is also too low.

  • Actually depends on how much it costs. If its a few quid more than the 360 and the Neon, its alright. LG is on a roll, just isn't making touch screens larger than 3" if I am not mistaken. I would have loved the Viewty 2, but now I have to wait a few more months before the Idou or Omnia HD are releases and get cheaper.

  • I feel sorry for you europeans in general

  • buy! buy it now! in fact, buy two of them! one for each pocket! this is expirience talking! buy!

  • I can't decide between the xenon or the impression. anyone think they know which one i should get?

  • all u people from europe or wherever y are u putting bad comments on here like u said it probably won't even come out over there. I think it's a good messaging phone and im probably gonna get it.

  • $150 or $50 dollars

  • I feel sorry for you Americans. You have to settle for terrible phones in comparison to Europe. I'd be surprised if this were released over here in the UK. Its poor even by standards 3 years ago.

  • Nice maths there genius.

  • nice, good-looking, QWERTY keyboard is cool.........i like it!!! looks handy for someone like me!!! I'm gonna like it!!!! SHOULD I GET IT?!?!?!?!?!? someone with experience please tell me!!!

  • $150 from ATT with 2yrs contract and a 50 mail in rebate...so all togher ur LG Xeon will cost 100

  • Is the GPS any good?

  • Having played with the personally this phone is a teen based phone. i'm sick of people downing phone b/c it don't have this it don't have that,like every phone that suppose to come is suppose to have EVERYTHING know to man in it...that just not smart per business standards but the phone itself it aight, i don't like it i personally have the bold and love it best phone on the market in my opinion

  • Looks nice, good for the teens. What is the price range for this? Does anyone know?

  • No wi fi

  • typical junk for US market.. unsuited name, ugly design, no video call camera, no radio. thank God, it do not have external antenna.. if it is... it's very americana ;P

  • What a waste of the QWERTY keyboard. Most such phones are cpapable of opening MS OFfice documents. Sadly not this LG phone.

  • why you guys always negative on something? i said this phone a great feature, great design for mid class user. the improvement from cookie i suppose. GPS,HSDPA, huge capacity in external memory support. judging from the color on the body, i'll said this is targeted for 17-28 years old customer. but i guess the Xenon name, doesn't suit with the set. more funk or cheers full name. i hope theres no lag,no freeze problem,and put 1200 mAH battery in it because 2,8 inch display cost a lot of power use. regards ian

  • LOL! I bet it doesn't have a XENON Flash.. looks like a LED one xD xD Seriously though, why do phone manufacturers release network only handsets? Especially AT&T? It seems weird and has limited use...especially when they put all their branding all over it :/

  • This phone's target demographic is American teenagers. They can be satisfied by 1)novelty (touchscreen, weird sliding form factor) and 2)Qwerty (for texting).

  • What a waste of a qwerty keyboard... no document editor, no wifi... so basically this is just an messaging mobile... lol!

  • it shouldnt be named xenon coz it doesnt have xenon

  • It is a smart looking phone. i want to know about its cost & colours available of it. Please Reply Thanks

  • yes! just read the specs!!!

  • good nice

  • Before asking stupid questions read the spec list... In your case under the Display section you will find TFT Touchscreen written... Idiot

  • It is a touch screen phone, with the qwerty keyborad sliding oput for easier texting and email

  • James, I'm sure it's a touchscreen phone

  • the phone is good if the os is not proprietary'

  • the phone is good if the os is not proprietary'

  • Does this phone is touch screen ? plz guys reply me as i want to buy this phone it has a big screen...

  • Looks ok. bad features.

  • 108g for a full touchscreen with external keyboard! This is a great spec. Of course there will be the usual complains about the fact it is not a 12MP camera, with WIMAX and that it doesn't make coffee either, but if it has a low price tag, similar to the cookie, then keyboard + GPS + Touchscreen at 108g will be a very good deal!

  • is beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Whats the point bring out a phone that is more rubbish than the ones you already have out??? am i missing something?? atleast put a 3.2mp camera on it!!

  • i think it will be priced very low.. like the specs is too low-mid range.

  • i think it will be priced very low.. like the specs is to low-mid range.

  • no Wlan and radio?!!!!!! its very bad

  • y no wifi come on its a qwerty phone i say it must hav wlan
