SAVE $250.00 - LG Lotus LX600 Phone, Purple (Sprint) $49.99

Very disappointed in all the extras The phone does a good job with phone calls. But every extra feature has enough quirks that it is maddening. Built in web browser is unusably horribly bad, most screens end up off the right side of the screen but you can't scroll right or zoom, making it useless. Built in chat app routinely gives me timeout errors, leading to lost messages. Phone's text entry mode bogs down as more characters are added so that if you type more than a few sentences you end up with several seconds between each keypress. Phone gives you a certificate or auth error most times that you try to install anything interesting, like opera mini or google maps app, but if you keep trying eventually sometimes they do install - installing Opera Mini took me 15 tries, with half of them crashing and rebooting the phone. Weird quirks like you can't enter a / in a url in opera mini when you finally do get it installed because you have to hit fn to get to slash and hitting fn acts as an enter key. If you do manage to get google maps installed, it won't work with the phone's GPS. I assumed they are trying to sell me on buying their own sprint navigator thing, which I used once, but it's frustrating as heck because if you get off the path (or enter a downtown area with sub-optimal gps and lots of closely spaced streets) it readily just gives up and you have to redo the trip search. Originally the phone used to reboot randomly, but they patched that with firmware. Sometimes the end button sends things to the background, sometimes the end button closes the thing, and there is no way to tell in advance which it will be. I can't figure out how to end a current call to take a new call when I get call waiting so I always end up hanging up on people when this happens. Can you tell I'm frustrated? It's a decent phone, but it's supposed to browse internet and chat and do email... and it almost does. Almost. Just enough to drive you crazy. Skip it and get something else that actually works well, I wish I had. Rating: 2 (Nvila, 2009-12-02) Product reviewed: LG Lotus LX600 Phone, Purple (Sprint)

Great Phone! I love my Lotus. I "down-graded" from a Palm Treo smart phone. The Treo was simply to big and clunky with way more features than I could ever need. I just needed a compact phone for calls, a QWERTY keyboard for texting and some scheduling features, and mp3 ringtones. This phone is great! In addition to meeting my basic needs it has a camera, I can watch tv and play games. The keyboard is the right size and I like being able to physically touch the buttons - I'm not a fan of the on screen keyboards. The color and style are a bonus. I get lots of compliments on this phone. My only complaint is that I haven't been able to get the music player/mp3 player feature to work but, honestly, I haven't spent a lot of time with it. It's not a crucial feature for me. Overall, a really great phone. The best one I've had yet (had it for 8 months now).

i got a lg lotus I go my LG Lotus about 3 or 4 weeks ago. I used one in the store and I liked the cool design and it's features. also it has gmail which not many phones have. i think the qwerty keyboard is pretty easy to type on and i like that. also it has internet which is also good. the internet is kinda slow but its a phone so what should i expect, its a phone?the other downside is it doesn't always show the whole screen. but it's okay. i like that its flip and qwerty key board. also i like the pictures and videos i can make with it. also the camera buton on the side makes everything easier. its kinda slow but it amkes up for it. i have the red one which the dont sell on amazon but the red one has an amazing design and i'm glad i got this phone.

Disappointing! First, I'll say that I own two of these phones and one has been decent while the other I've had several problems with. The problem phone stays mostly at home and sees limited usage. However, after just a month of this limited use, the main screen started shorting out, getting distorted or going completely blank. When the phones are working they do okay for a simple call and text phone, but don't try to text too quickly as the phone lags and you'll be erasing and repeating yourself a lot. Whether it is the phone or my provider, I get poor signal and dropped or missed calls in and around my house. If I wasn't locked into a contract I would get a new provider and new phones.

The Price of Beauty I loved my phone for about 2 months and now I think it's a piece of junk! The phone is cute which is what attracted me. I like that it's a flip with a full keyboard and fits easily in my pocket. It did drop calls every now and then and for some strange reason when I first got it all my calls went right to voicemail. I called Sprint and they had to do mutiple things to reset the phone and then it worked fine. Until about a month ago. The phone drops calls ALL the time. I had Sprint service before and this didn't happen with my old phone and I'm driving to all the same places so it's not the service. About half my calls go right to voicemail. My apartment is a dead zone and no one can get calls in there but everyone else can still send text. I have to go hold my phone to the window to send a text. I can't hear a darn thing on it anymore. This was always a bit of a problem but it seems to have gotten much worse in the last month or so. When I get on the internet, it's extremely slow. Every now and then the phone just turns off by itself. I also have to turn the phone off to basically reset it or something from time to time because if I put it on vibrate it still rings. If I turn the phone off and then turn it back on it normally goes back to doing what it's supposed to but still annoying. The ONLY reason I would ever recommend this phone is for the texting. If you only text and never want to use the phone for anything else then it's fine otherwise don't do it! I'm taking this thing back to Sprint!
