This phone is soooo bad!!
I bought it becuase it looked really cool.
BUT the reception is terrible! People on the other end of the line can hardly hear you. The charger is flimsy and has a hard time connecting. And when it is charged the battery doesn't last long.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS PHONE!
I've had this phone less than 6 months and I need to buy a new one, what a waste of money!

I love mine. But what does the button on the front do? Mine flashes white every few seconds, and jingles if I touch it. But what does the button DO? The manual, of course, is in a language I have no hope of decoding.

This phone looks cool, and friends told me that they really liked it. The preformance on the phone plan sucks. It's annoying to change the text messaging from chinese to english, but it's not terrible at all. Also, I never get good service. I never get static as other people have said though. I have Cingular, maybe the phone would be better if I had a different service. I also greatly dislike how the address book works. Other phones organize this much better.

I bought this phone for my wife, it broke in less than one month. The screen went blank and wouldn't light up anymore. Everything still works and we can still dial out and receive calls. However the screen is dark and will not display anything at all (the outside screen which gives you the time and reception etc works fine).
The online vendor (eXpansys.ca) refused to take any responsibilities. I contacted Panasonic Canada they said this is not a product they distribute and told me to contact Panasonic China. Just shipping cost to and from will be as much as the phone itself so I don't think I will send it to China for fixing!
Does anyone know of any ways of fixing this problem? Some of you said you've fixed the G70 a couple times. Do you know where I can send it to (in Canada) for fixing? Thanks alot in advance of any feed back!

I bought this phone when it first came out. Cost me $460CDN! Only like it cuz it looks different and whenever you push up the mirror appears. Other than that, the static is horrible! It really depends on which phone company your with in order to have "good reception". Because you would have to look at the bandwith. Textin isn't so bad as some people describe it. Although the manual is in chinese, it was pretty easy for me to figure everythin out. You are able to type in english. Because I had a friend who had the same phone we were able to compare the flaws together. The buttons on the phone sticks out to much in a result that it scratches the mirror over time. I know quite a bit about this phone so msg me if you have any questions. I hate it yet i love it...only keepin it for the looks..
