I just bought this phone off of ebay for $330. I hadn't read these comments before hand, though, and i wish i had. I'm only 14 and was looking for something cheaper than my original phone (V600, motorola) which phone is better? and seeing as im younger, would i still enjoy this phone even if u guys say its crappy? coz i don't need all those special feature things.

To be frank, I hated this phone immediately after i get it. But gradually, I begin to appreciate the nice ergonomics and user-friendliness of the phone. When I have in mind to get another phone, I realise nothing had came close to T5100 and everything else better would cost so much more.

Hello!
I have this stupid phone for 4 months.It has no good software and it's a little bit slow.NO BLUETOOTH AND NO EXTERNAL MEMORY CARD.Another cros of this mo bile is the cheap quality of the plastic and the very low second hand market value!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your time!!!!!!!

As common as most LG phones, the phone comes with two batteries. It also have a serial cable and a USB cable. USB one is for transfering MP3s and Serial cable is more for synchronizing. There is no expansion slot and the onboard memory is a little too pathetic for a MP3 Phone. The quality of the MP3 playback isn't that fantastic as Motorola E398. However I'm contented with the quality as Stereo Earpiece in the package. It is almost not possible to transfer data from this phone to others as there is almost no connectivity. The Infra-red is not working right. Files cannot be transferred to other phones with this infra-red. Without the existence of Bluetooth makes it worse. Video is above average but the photo quality is one of the worst among mega-pixel phones.
Here's the conclusion:

Pros:
Stylish Looking
Good Resolution
MP3 Playback 1.3Mega-pixel Camera
Camcorder

Cons:
No Bluetooth
Incapability of Infrared
No expansion slot
Insufficient Onboard memory

Advice:
If finacially allows, get a better phone. However, this is still an excellent phone if a person wouldn't mind with just one or two MP3s on the phone and some videos and pictures.
