LG Viewty....

[craig180]

Anyone got or used one of these?

Seen a real good deal which I'm tempted by but just want to know how they fare reliability wise?

Any useful info appreciated.

Cheers

Craig

actually i was looking at the lg viewty, but damn the size of the thing puts me off, and also ive been using an lg chocolate from last deal, the touchscreen isnt all up to scratch, id much rather have buttons :y:

That's handy to know. I'm with O2 at the mo and have had SE phones for the last few years. They just seem to be invincible. Gone off Nokias but just fancied a change from the SE's for a bit and couldn't justify spending nearly £300 on the iPhone

ive had a few phons and id definately say sony ericsson are the best ive had by far :y:

Craig im interested in the getting the Viewty but a mate has gone through 2 screens since he first got his so its put me off abit until i find out if its just him or the phone being shit!.

He gets the phone replaced no probs but i can't be without a phone for a day!

my mate has got one. ive had a bit of a play with it and its ok but if it didnt have touch screen it would be rubbish. camera is good and the video is above average. imo its trying to be the iphone.

havent had great reviews...

[doely_gti]

i've also been considering one of these, the mrs wants to get me a iphone, which imo would be useless to me as i dont really use MP3's so a viewty would be better justified purely on the camera capabilities as it saves me updating my digi-cam.

has anyone else had any issues or mates etc as i spent £300 last year on a d900 which was a fad, dont want to make the mistake again

i prefer a sony phone to a LG last one i had packed in:n:

Stuff magazine did a big review on the 4 phones out at the moment,

Nokia N95
Samsung G600
Sony Ericsson k850i
LG Viewty

All of them were rated 5 stars except the LG, which was rated at 3 stars.

[Jacko]

stuff magazine sounds awesome....

Just got a Viewty.

Love it.
