I got this phone on a Tuesday and thought it was great. By Sunday it was close to unusable as it failed to detect removal of the headset so normal speaker and mic didn't work. Got another on the monday. By Friday it was unusable as the charger failed and the battery ran down. Replaced it on the Saturday and am amazed to have gone a week with the same handset.
Phone locks after USB sync and PC software often crashes in WinME (which shouldn't really come as a surprise).

if you have a problem with not fitting enough mp3's on, then use a program to convert them to 3gp and place them in the audio folder. they are not as good quality but they are only about 100kb instead of 2-4Mb, so you can fit a lot more. program i have been using is nokia pc suite, it may not be for LG but it does convert the files and then you use the LG programs to put it on the phone

when i first got this phone i just played with the camera alot, but as ive had it longer and longer i realised more of its posabilities, and just recently i got the pc software to work. its an amazing phone, fairly normal batterylife and a good layout. i would def recomend this phone.

Overall this is a very good phone, good battery life, size and weight are comparable to 2g and 2.5g. Everything on the phone works and works well, it's just what's not there that is the problem.
I can't believe they only put 14mb in the phone with no possible way to expand. This only alows for 4 MP3's and some photos, though it does play the MP3's as ringtones so no more wasting of money on something that should be free anyway.
Also this unit only uses USB 1.0 so when transferring MP3's can still leave you with quite a wait.
The only other problem is not being able to transfer Java applications and the limited use of the ones you can download is a bit disappointing and I really would have expected more, although I believe this is the same for all the 3g phones. Also no bluetooth is a slight downside.

I won't be buying this phone because the supplied software can't upload and install JAVA apps to the phone. I posted this elsewhere:
Just spoke to an LG technician over their customer support line. His initial thought was that "of course, it should be possible" to install JAVA apps from the phone to the PC.
But after after humming and haahing going through the LG software he had installed at his end and going through the manual, he finally concluded that, no, it is not possible after all to transfer and install JAVA apps on the LG U8110 from a PC via the USB or IR connection. You can transfer ringtones, pictures etc using the software, but not JAVA apps, but he does acknowledge that it can be done over a WAP web page. He also said that any kind of software fix to allow installation of JAVA apps from the PC would not be coming at least for another few months if it came at all.
That was all very disappointing, considering that the JAVA app upload and installation to the LG U8110 was the only outstanding concern I had about the phone and 3 Networks.
I won't be buying this phone now, and I'll give 3 a miss until they stop messing around and give us something that works properly with basic functionality provided by the competition.

Cons: Not blue tooth
Pros: Everything else!
I have tried most phones and not been impressed, this phone, as my friends say, is the best phone ever.
