Reviewer: Andreas - Cyprus
Date: 24th Aug 2010

I have it for about 2 months now & 3 days ago it started to have problems by:

- Charging the battery.
- USB recognition on PC (not recognised).
- Battery lasting less than a day (fully charged),
- Increase of temperature on top where the antenna is when the USB or the charger is in.
- The back side of the cover does not fix well.
- Only when it turns off by 'low battery' can be recharged (no other option).

BUYING: NOT RECOMMENDED.

It's an OK phone I have had it for a month & a half & the phone won't connect to the PC & the memory card is shown not in the phone & when it does all my songs are not there :@.

Bought a Tesco PAYG of these for our daughter for Christmas & she loved the phone so much that I bought a contract version for myself two months ago. Love the design (couldn't justify the price of a Blackberry) & find the phone very easy to use. The only problem I can report is that in the last week I couldn't access Gmail or Internet but found that by switching the phone off & removing the battery cured the problem! Can be a bit of a faff unlocking the phone in a hurry & can be slow to access Internet & emails but neither I nor my daughter have had issues with adding SD cards or it freezing & shutting down to date.

All in all a good value phone! ;D.

20 days ago I purchased three of these phones for the family, already they have been returned for a refund. I am very disappointed. As the battery, in each of the phones, in turn, became discharged (flat) the phone switched off & died, quite literally. None of the phones would recharge, no matter how long the charger was left plugged in (& on), & neither would they operate at all, in fact they exhibited absolutely no sign of life at all.

To make things worse, getting help from LG, well, let's just say it has been an utter frustration, obviously LG haven't done Customer Services 101!

I too found that battery life was very significantly less than that specified by the manufacturer, nowhere near, 4 days vs 18 days!

All in all, very disappointed, both with the product & after sales 'service'.

I'm afraid life is not good with these LGs!

The reason I purchased this phone was due to the QWERTY keyboard. The rest of the phone is pretty much useless. Internet is only 2G not 3G. PC Bluetooth software is so useless, keeps reporting it can't find the phone, it's easier to connect the phone to my computer using the data cable. Major problems getting micro SD Cards to work, it either reports no card is inserted or displays error message when trying to capture photos, video ETC to card. Battery does not last ANYWHERE near quoted even with Bluetooth turned off. Often after powering up it does not detect my SIM card requiring me to reboot it until it does. Hopeless JAVA support, does not run virtually any apps downloaded from the Internet.

Whilst the phone looks nice & is easy to use, the amount of hassle I have had actually trying to use it is ridiculous. The phone was great for the first few months, but now it turns itself on & off, battery lasts for literally half a day & then refuses to charge up again. Actually the worst phone I have had in my life, has even been back for repair & was fine for a week & then started playing up again. DO NOT BUY.

This piece of technology in the communication world is just what an executive needs to do ordinary business away from office. Indeed it's a companion when you want your office by you, like me, I am away from Cameroon & now in Germany but my staff & I are connected.

Reviewer: Craig Freeman - UK
Date: 2nd Jun 2010

It's a good phone for its price but only if you want a phone with a QWERTY keyboard. I haven't had any problems like it turning on & off or problems with it ringing people but I can say that at times it is very slow & it can take up to 30 seconds to open your music files if you haven't opened them in the last 2 minutes or so.

All in all if you want a phone with a QWERTY keyboard for a smaller price than most phones with it then go for this phone, but be ready for slightly long wait when opening media files.

It's great for messaging & is the best for that that I have owned but after texting it brings up the money you still have on the phone which can take up to 5 seconds & is a bit annoying when you want to send a QUICK text.

Reviewer: Loonilou - UK
Date: 26th May 2010

Worst phone ever when I first got it, it would turn itself off so I did a update n that seemed to solve it but now it is playing up on text messages takes ages to load them & messes about big time then when you try to go to home screen it send blank text messages! It has cost me a fortune in blank messages if you only want to use it for net it is great but everything else on it is rubbish! To use the media player it has to load the tracks every time meaning you have to wait ages! I do not recommend you purchase this phone! If you want a good cheap LG get a cookie that's one of the best I have ever had!

Reviewer: Spanya - UK
Date: 25th May 2010

Before I bought this phone I looked at these reviews & thought oh ill just get it. I wish I didn't! This phone DOES turn itself on & off, like other people have said. Another thing that happened that hasn't been mentioned was that the arrow key stopped working when I got on to the menu but they would work on anything else! This phone is very slow when you're on the messaging section, it took my phone about 30 secs to move from messaging to menu. This phone also had a habit of ringing my mother when I was listening to music, which wasted my credit!

The only good thing about this phone is that it has a QWERTY keypad & a Facebook app (& even that's slow)!

I would recommend anyone who thought of getting this phone that there is no point in buying it & it is a waste of money!

Reviewer: Sarah Brown - UK
Date: 22nd May 2010

This phone is fabulous. I am a text-a-holic, so I find the QWERTY keypad a joy to use. The design is very modern & stylish, however the back cover wobbles a bit, but hey, who's complaining? the features are very good, the games are interesting & the music sound quality is good as well as easy to use. The usability is very straight forward, there's no two ways about it. You just do what you want to do. The Facebook mobile is very similar to the actual site, & the hotmail is easily usable.

I would recommend it to anybody, an excellent alternative to other ridiculously priced QWERTY keypad phones.

Reviewer: Lesleya - Northumberland, UK

DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE ITS TOTAL RUBBISH! I bought this phone 8 weeks ago & I can't use it now. It switched itself on & off all day after id had it 3 or 4 weeks so I couldn't get a replacement from O2? & it is now just totally unusable! O2 refuse point blank to exchange it & want me to pay them for a temp phone while they send this away to be repaired. No way O2! What a rip off! PLEASE don't WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS PHONE ITS RUBBISH. I should have stuck with my Nokia.

Reviewer: Debbie - Wtgn , New Zealand
Date: 17th May 2010

Great phone, I love the feel & the look. The only problem (as a lot of you know) is the poor battery life & the fact that the alarm hasn't actually woken me up yet as the battery is always dead by the morning. One other thing, I find when the battery dies, you have to remove the battery & reinsert it for it to start charging, does this happen to anyone else?

---

Reviewer: Alex - UK
Date: 16th May 2010

WOULD NOT recommend. I bought my version of the phone 9 months ago, & now it is completely unusable. It was about five months ago the phone started to turn itself off with no warning, but only occasionally. Now, I'll be very lucky if I can use the phone for over 5 minutes at a time, there is now a slight warning before it will turn off. The phone will freeze in the exact frame for about 3 seconds, & then turn itself off, which makes it all the more frustrating. &, there is constantly no signal, so when the phone is turned on (rarely), I do not receive any of the messages sent to the phone (apart from those sent from the phone company). £80 gone to waste really.

Reviewer: Aggie Simton - London , UK
Date: 15th May 2010

This phone is the worst phone ever, never buy it for a few reasons.
- It says it has Internet but will never connect & you have to pay £5 for it.
- the phone always turns off itself.
- You can only have 1 song on it even if you buy memory card.
- the design looks good but is actually really tacky.
- the videos only allow 10 seconds of recording.
- the camera takes fuzzy pictures.
- the games are rubbish.
- It's a childish phone never buy it.
- the songs or song you put on always is unable to hear it.
- When someone calls you, you never hear what they say the sound system is to fuzzy.

That's 10 reasons why you should never buy this phone I wish I had never bought this phone & now I have the Samsung Tocco Lite & it's great I recommend it.

Fantastic, this Phone Is Simply Amazing, the Design Is Brilliant & Slim so I can get it in my pocket without damaging it, the features are good what is everyone saying about it turning on & off all the time the probably just have a faulty phone, this phone is truly wonderful :D.

ALWAYS REMEMBER DO NOT BUY ANY SD HC MEMORY CARD FOR THIS PHONE, BECAUSE THIS PHONE DOES NOT SUPPORT SDHC MEMORY CARD. ALWAYS BUY MICRO SD TM CARD FOR THIS PHONE. MAXIMUM CARD LIMIT 8GB.

Reviewer: Mike - UK
Date: 11th Apr 2010

This phone is the best phone I have ever bought. The sound quality is amazing I would recommend it to anyone but it comes with a down side the video camera is rubbish you can only record for 10 seconds. Overall it's a good phone.

Reviewer: Bowie - Merelbeke, Belgium
Date: 2nd Apr 2010

The design is perfect because it is very thin & it is easier to put it in my pocket & logically I am a messaging person & the usability is also perfect. I have the phone & I am satisfied :)

Date: 22nd Feb 2010

I love this phone. I got it for Christmas 2009 & it has worked brilliantly apart from the fact that it turns itself off if you try to delete a text whilst in the process of sending one.

All in all I think this phone is great, it looks gorgeous & has a beautiful HCI which is easy to navigate around. 5 star.

Reviewer: Amber - UK

I bought this mobile because I get people asking me if it is actually a BlackBerry but with no micro card in it I can have 1 song & 10 pictures & the mobile is not picking up any of my 8 micro cards so don't buy if you want more room to save things.

Hi there, well I got this phone a few days ago & like previous reviews I had read it turned iself on & off BUT the reason for this is because my SD card from my old phone wasn't connecting with the LG, I purchased a new SD card & what do you know it now works brillliantly.

Love this phone would def recommend. Easy to use the facebook apps etc are cool.

Reviewer: Jackie - Essex, UK
Date: 17th Feb 2010

On impulse, I bought this phone because I simply liked the design & look of it, & I had been struggling with my recently purchased touch screen phone. Before opening it I looked up this site to read the reviews, before deciding whether to return it & carry on fighting with my very UN-user friendly touch screen. Because the reviews seemed very mixed & the poor ones focused on a fault where the phone turns itself on & off, I decided to give it a go & just be ready to return it to TESCO if it let me down. However, I LOVE THIS PHONE! It's very simple to use, looks good, I can navigate around it with speed & it has never frozen or turned itself off unexpectedly. I'd measure my enthusiasm with the fact I don't want a lot from my phone & my main requirement is that it makes & receives calls & sends & receives texts without any grief, it does both those things perfectly, doesn't cost the earth, is a nice size that's comfortable to use & looks fab!

Reviewer: Lee W - Newport, UK
Date: 8th Feb 2010

I bought this phone just before Xmas 2009 & didn't really expect much for £79 however it is brilliant. The keyboard is great for texting, the screen is great for viewing images, the sound quality is brilliant, the email function is outstanding & the design is really cool.

I have had no problems with this phone, i.e. turning itself on & off, the memory slot or a clicking back!

I have a 2gig Micro card installed & it gives it the extra memory that's required, the initial memory only stores 2 songs. That's the only downside really.

All in all well done LG!

Reviewer: Glenn Slayford - UK
Date: 1st Feb 2010

Have had mine exchanged twice now, the first would not allow any outgoing or incoming calls & the earpiece when listening to a call would distort so badly that you could not understand what any one was saying, I am now off to get the 2nd replaced if the 3rd one has any problems I will go back to Samsung as never had any problems with them.

Reviewer: Sean Mack - Bolton, UK
Date: 31st Jan 2010

UPDATE FROM MY PREVIOUS REVIEW

Simply put, DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE unless you want to put up with it turning itself on & off. I bought one of these for myself & one for my daughter. I ended up swapping mine out in store for an older model phone (diff manufacturer) due to it repeatedly switching itself on & off.

My daughter's fared little better, Orange customer service is truly dreadful, from some call-centre on the other side of the planet & now waiting for phone no.3 as they say because we bought on the Internet they're entitled to replace it twice before considering a refund!

They just tried to deliver a SIM card today instead of the phone so courier sent duly packing back with the SIM card. Get any other brand apart from LG, just see the Internet forums about their phones. Next stop for me is trading standards.

Reviewer: Roseanne - Auckland, New Zealand

I've had the LG GW300 for nearly two months & am experiencing problems with it. Like other users of some LG GW300, the back cover of my phone is a bit loose & clicks whenever I push the cover (but it doesn't fit properly so it keeps clicking whenever pushed) & my phone keeps freezing & then turns itself off. This happens about 30 seconds after I've turned the phone on & it keeps happening. I am about to return this phone because although it was absolutely amazing when I first bought it, I can hardly use it for more than half a minute before it freezes & turns off. It has become annoying & what's the use in using a freezing phone? I enjoyed using this phone before the problems started happening. If I didn't have these problems, I would say this is the best phone I've seen at an incredible price.

Reviewer: Chelsea - UK

PHONE IS EXCELLENT! People who are saying the phone turns itself on & off must have a faulty phone because mine has never done it. Had it 4 months & very pleased. Great design easy to use. QWERTY keypad is great. Buttons may be small but get used to it after couple days. Internet options are very good. Fast working phone. Good sound & vision! On call sounds great. I LOVE the PHONE !

Reviewer: John Sutherland - UK

I have read many reviews. Some sites state it is quad band, others state it is tri. The maximum memory card appears to be vague. One review claimed there was no sd card provision, another stated 4GB was the highest it could handle. Another stated it went up to 16GB. I have studied at least 20 to 30 reviews, possible 8 think it is a good phone, these were youngsters I imagine, & the remainder state is was awful. I am a blackberry enthusiast, I thought it would be handy to carry about in place of my expensive Blackberry Bold I currently use, I have a very active labouring job & it would be handy for working hours. The reports have completely put me off this phone. Regards, from a 45 year old working man.

Reviewer: Andrew - UK
Date: 15th Jan 2010

I've had this phone for a week & I am really pleased. I've had none of the problems that have been mentioned above, such as the memory card not being accepted, or the phone turning off.

Overall, I find it very pleasing to use, & as a late teenager texting loads, I find it great to use :).

Reviewer: Jena - Auckland, New Zealand
Date: 11th Jan 2010

I got this phone for my birthday & I LOVE it! It sort of looks like a Blackberry, but cooler.

The keys are REALLY small but you get used to it after a while. The radio is of really good quality & I really like the Internet option as it is really good for people on the go. The 2.0 megapixel camera is pretty good, & so is the Bluetooth. Many people are complaining about the phone turning off, which has happened a few times. You have to go to settings, & then choose phone & then auto lock key (whatever it is) & change the setting. Problem solved.

Overall, it is a good phone for people who are tech savvy & a great alternative for people who can't afford a Blackberry.

Reviewer: D Watson - UK
Date: 21st Dec 2009

Just purchased this mobile, I love the design & the keyboard in particular is very positive. I haven't used anything like all the features yet but so far so good. Radio reception is a little iffy (this has probably more to do with the positioning of the headset cord which can't always be in the optimum place) but sound quality is good. There is a very useful rocker switch along one side of the phone to increase & decrease volume making phone calls in various conditions quite easy. Others have referred to the LG's habit of switching off unexpectedly. Try increasing the Main Screen Duration & Keypad Duration (Go to Settings, Screen, Backlight). I have increased these settings to 30 seconds & 20 seconds respectively on my phone & don't have any problems. In general I have found navigating around the menus fairly straightforward & I am by no means an expert!

All in all I am very pleased with this purchase.

I just bought this phone & I am wondering why it turns off all the time can someone tell me please:).

Reviewer: Roy - UK
Date: 4th Dec 2009

My first impressions of the GW300 were very favourable. Large, clear, backlit markings on the keys are a real asset for those of us with less than perfect eyesight. The full qwerty keyboard with a firm key click is far easier & quicker than typing texts on the numeric keypad of my old phone.

Pictures taken on the 2MP camera on an overcast day looked muddy, but those taken in sunlight were quite good when viewed on a full computer screen.

I was sold a 4GB micro SDHC card with the camera which proved defective & was exchanged for a 2GB micro SD by my local Orange shop (the card was unreadable even on my PC.)

The other big problem was that while I could download emails from my Post Office account, I could not send them. The Orange shop could not help & even the facility to set up emails from your current provider by specifying your mobile model on the Orange website did not work. The Orange helpline simply cut me off after I had entered my phone number & PIN. My attempt to open an Orange email account was rejected about 10 times.

After 3 nights searching the Internet, I eventually found the answer in part of the Orange site concerning setting up MS Outlook to read emails on your previous ISP's account when you have signed up for Orange Broadband. The salient part is that the incoming mail server should be set to pop3.mypostoffice.co.uk while the outgoing mail server should be set to smtp.orangehome.co.uk & not mypostoffice as one might expect. Works fine now. One wonders why the Orange setup facility noted above does not automatically implement this?

Another slight irritation is that the manual refers to connecting the phone to your PC using PC Suite. What this is or where you get it from is a mystery. Seemingly it's also a mystery to LG who did not answer the question I asked about it on the enquiry form on their website. Anybody have any ideas?

Now I've sorted out the two main problems, I'm delighted with my phone for the price. Sure the back creaks a bit but there comes a limit how much they can do for £79! If like me you just like playing with gadgets, there's so much to here experiment with, I've had mine over a week & have only used half the functions.

Reviewer: Newboy 77 - UK
Date: 30th Nov 2009

I bought this phone last month. People problems such as turning itself off, is not happening for me, I don't know why other peoples are doing it. The small little buttons are a bit of a downside but the whole idea of the full QWERTY keyboards is a lot easier than using a normal keyboard on a regular phone.

Another problem that people are bringing up regularly, is the memory slot, again I have to disagree with them because, in a month, I have had no problems.

Overall, this phone is a very stylish & useful phone for people, who love to text & want top of the range phone.

Reviewer: Duncan Moore - Lancaster, UK
Date: 19th Nov 2009

Jury still out in this one. I had a Samsung phone prior to this which was great. Went with the GW300 because I liked the idea that you could increase the font size & I liked the QWERTY keyboard which I find much simpler to use than the standard text key layout.

Downside is battery life. I am a low user & still find I need to charge the phone every third day, so not getting the 500 plus standby hours advertised. Planning to take it back to Orange shop & see what they have to say. Also FM radio is hit or miss, often tune in & save a station to come back later to find nothing but static. Even when tuned in static is a problem & stations drop out regularly. Have set up the e-mail facility as instructed but as yet have failed to send an email, phone tells me it's waiting then sending, then waiting then sending & so on. I left it 20 minutes today to test it but it still says sending.

Overall good looking phone & easy to find your way around, but still some issues need sorting.

Reviewer: L Vialli - UK

I hate it! I've had it for about 3 days & all thats happened is that I turn it on go onto the camera & it TURNS ITSELF OFF! & when I text its really slow & freezes on lots off the apps over all I would rate it a 5%.

Reviewer: Mel - Hereford, US
Date: 15th Nov 2009

I love this phone, but I text a lot, its really really anoying me though, I have had it for 2 days? It has switched off about 9 times. Its starting to annoy me now but I don't want to send it back.

Reviewer: Kim Lay - Brightlingsea, UK
Date: 6th Nov 2009

I've had this phone for two weeks & the only problem I've had with it is the memory card. It just doesn't want to know. On every other level it is fine. I have not had the problem that other reviewers have, when the mobile turning itself off & the battery life seems comparable with every other mobile I've ever had & better than some.

The overall design is fine & the small keys are not a problem. I can get & send emails with no trouble at all & surf the net with ease. Calls are clear.

There is a suspicion that it might be dropping text messages but the jury is still out on that as the person who tells me they have sent a text I didn't receive tells me that no matter what phone I use. However, text dropping is a known LG weakness.

In general I am pretty pleased with the phone, I don't need the memory, the camera is good enough but never an important item as far as I am concerned & I wouldn't use a mobile to download music.

All in all, not too bad.

Reviewer: Ursine - Canterbury, UK
Date: 3rd Nov 2009

I bought this phone to replace a Nokia XpressMusic. I used my old phone predominately as an MP3 player & it was pretty much flawless. The reason I bought this phone was that it seemed like a lot of phone for the price (on PAYG), & it has a 3.5ml headphone jack! This feature was the clincher for me as I hate listening to music on poor headphones. The OS is nowhere near as intuitive or pleasing as my Nokia (& the music player won't play in the background & let you use all the other functions) but most functions are easily adapted to after a couple of days use. On the whole I'd say this phone gets a good rating with the excellent QWERTY keyboard & headphone jack giving it the edge over other phones at the same price.

Reviewer: Monkeyg - UK
Date: 29th Oct 2009

Just bought this phone for my teenage daughter & after 1 day had to take it back to the O2 shop as the phone is not 'fit for purpose'. If your child sends as many texts as my one does & lives & breathes texting, then this phone is not the one for them. Great design & price & mirrors the look of a crackberry, which is why most kids might want to choose it. Initial results were that the battery did not last that long, the phone kept switching off & also freezing & the user interface is so slow. Moving between texts & the menu system almost becomes unusable especially when your texting at teenage speed! Not recommended. She chose instead the Samsung Tocco Lite. Hope this helps! Monkeyg.

Reviewer: Jake Brown - UK

I love this phone & I am glad I bought it, but I've only had it a few days & already the memory card is playing up & it turns on & off every now & again which makes it hard to use.

The Good Stuff.
- Look, keys & the phone itself

The bad stuff.
- It turns on & off, its usability & the memory card.

Reviewer: Sean Mack - Bolton, UK
Date: 26th Oct 2009

Have given this time to see what the phone could do & the features are very good. Layout of the menu is good too. Screen quality is as high as more expensive phones, BUT, the biggest problem is that it KEEPS SWITCHING ITSELF OFF.

It's not random either, it's always when texting, either as the message is being sent OR if you delete any old & sent messages. The outgoing messages DO get through but they still show in the Outbox which is very confusing & has ended up with me sending several messages twice to make sure they've gone.

One positive is that Orange swapped this phone straight out for me in the store BUT unfortunately liked this phone too.

Reviewer: Steveyboy - Birmingham, UK
Date: 29th Sep 2009

Only had it a couple of days as smashed the screen in my previous LG KS360. This phone is much easier to use, especially one handed, for text which is all I use apart from basic phone calls. Buttons although small rarely give a wrong letter & the blue numbering keys work really well. Calculator is great & large screen is really good.

Faults.
- I memorise lots of phone numbers so I miss the touch screen of the LG KS360.
- Unlocking always seems fiddly & takes a couple of goes.
- Have to wear my glasses as key lettering is really small.

Overall.
- Have not used much so far but really pleased.
