    The worst mobile phone purchse in the last 15 years (10 phones total). Some of things I don't like:

    - S-class interface is at the most half-baked:
    - Music player does not recognise musician
    or album name (although it is recognized
    when going through Windows Media Player
    - Wifi only working for web-surfing (e-mail
    using wifi not supported)
    - Inbox messages displaying oldest mail
    first, but after opening a message and
    then returning to the inbox, then you
    have the newest message first; consitency?
    - Horizontal view only allowed for SMS
    writing. What's the point?
    - Editing contact not available through
    the S-Class interface. Have to go to
    native WM6.1 through "programs"

    - Phone seems to be acting on its own when it is locked ( I lock it before I put it in the bag, I take it out - still locked - and unlock it to find out that it has started several applications on its own (happens when leaving the phone locked on the desk)

    - Support: I have written once when I was confirmed that wifi does not work with e-mail, but following support e-mails were never answered.

    - Thought there might be software fixes to be downloaded, but LG does not provide any such service...

    I will stick with HTC which my wife owns, which does not have any of the above problems.

          yep. after a month, it looks like a one-year-old phone already. lol. i agree also too that the menu (win mo skinned with s-class UI) is INCONSISTENT. the most inconsistent and unexpected UI for winmo phones. sheesh. even the 3 year old Samsung Omnia beats this in any criteria anytime.

            Anonymous, 21 Jul 2009Its overall a nice phone with the joysticks / mouse pad in ... moreThe mousepad scratches easily. And so do the whole casing. Should have used a harder material. The phone looks 'used' in just 1 month due to many minor scratches

                Anonymous, 19 Jan 2010Just got the phone, emailed LG service centre in Singapore ... moreIt is not only laggy. The menu is inconsistent. It hangs. It 'jumps' around. Too many bad points

                  Hi I've buy this phone begin of Jan. Find really great, but of course have some cons.
                  - No LED or Xenon flash
                  - Battery life short
                  - No "automatic" lock keyboard: or if have thx to let me know how to activate it.
                  - Already "crashed" 2 times but maybe comes from Windows.
                  - Sofware on CD not compatible with Mac but I thk it's for all or most manufacturer.

                  Otherwise nice phone.

                    I'm planning to get this phone next week. Do I have to purchase like an internet plan or whatever in order to use the functions like the Windows Mobile stuff? I only paid for unlimited texting. If I purchase this phone do i purchase the internet with it too or it's fine without it. What are some pros and cons for this phone? Thanks

                      Just got the phone, emailed LG service centre in Singapore regarding winmo 6.5, they replied "we will notify you again when the update is up"

                      In my opinion, the downside of the phone is its laggy. However, its still a great phone afterall

                        Hi! Just got one today though it came from Singapore as it's still not available in the Philippines. Anyway, i both have Eigen and Samsung Jet. i just noticed that the housing (black lining) of Eigen gets scratches easily.

                        winmo is already given and the lower cpu of Eigen that's why i still can't sell my Jet. planning to sell THIS instead of Jet no too soon.

                        Camera performance is slightly better than Jet. Playing music through speaker is AWESOME compared to Jet BUT rubbish music playback through wired headset. you'll easily notice the OVER TREBLING and VERY VERY LOW BASS. i think it's because they used micro usb instead of having the standard 3.5mm which affects the quality. and what sucks even more is that there's no equalizer.. oh well, lesson learned. i will never buy an LG again.

                                    Lg GM730 & Samsung B7300 OmniaLITE. Which one do you think is the best? I think OmniaLITE is better.
                                    -OmniaLITE has better processor.
                                    -OmniaLITE has long live battery.
                                    -LG GM730 is more expensive!! (410 Euro) & I think it bit more laggy. It supposed to be a smartphone doesn't it? The only good about it was LG has a better resolution on it's camera.
