Pros: Small size, many features, airplane mode, calendar Cons: Slow startup, small screen, no photo capabilities
This is my first PCS-Vision enabled phone, replacing my outdated 3 year old Qualcomm. In this review, I'll run down the top features and give my opinion on each:
Size & Weight ( )
Dimensions: 3.54" x 1.81" x 1.06"
Weight: 3.88...
Pros: Strong personal information management tools, OpenWave web browser, awesome battery life for color screen. Cons: Thickness of the phone, lacks speaker phone, No PCS "Vision" capabilities (can't send/receive pictures).
To be honest the LG LX5350 is my second Sprint PCS Vision phone. The first one was the Samsung SPH-N400 phone, which was good, but had enough problems and faults that I exchanged it for the LG LX5350. I'll explain why in the review.
I purchased my Sprint PCS Vision LG 5350 phone in 8/02 and have been very pleased with its performance and functionality. I am a longtime SprintPCS user currently on my 4th SprintPCS phone. My previous two phones were by Nokia (yes Sprint sold Nokia...
Pros: small and light weight, battery life. great ringers. External Caller ID/ time display. Cons: appears fragile (toy like) and incomplete. poor data interaction.
For once sales people now have something to talk about, the new LG phone; but for this one moment just allow me to express my own finding. Its a great phone but you have to read between the lines. One can not
eat a cake and have it....
Pros: Large color screen, wireless internet, speakerphone, easy navigation, Voice Dialing & GPS Cons: Weak Speakerphone, small size, costly downloads
Originally $189 after rebates now $49, Wow!
Although my wife and I have been a loyal Nextel customers for 6 years our i1000's were getting tired and the cool i95cl (internet w/full color screen) would have been $399 with discounts and too...
Pros: Lightweight, Bright, Clear Screen and Has an amazing amount of features. Cons: Earpiece volume not as loud as I like. Some controls not for bigger fingers.
Purchased on Ebay with accesories for $149.99 I researched this phone extensively on this and other websites and it boiled down to being the best value for the money in my opinion. So, I took a chance on it.
Overall I have been very happy with my...
Pros: Color screen, polyphonic ringtones, very portable. Cons: Heats quickly, low battery, few features, no camera, no speakerphone, NOT A GOOD DEAL
I purchased this product in February of 2003, and i wish i never had. The phone has the "cababilities" that Sprint claims it has, though you might as well spend the money on a more practical item. As a first time color internet phone user, the ...
Pros: The pros?...Little to no cons Cons: Ringer isn't as loud as I would like. That's It!
To be honest the LG LX5350 is my second Sprint PCS Vision phone. The first one was the Samsung SPH-N400 phone, which was good, but had enough problems and faults that I exchanged it for the LG LX5350. I'll explain why in the review.
Pros: Reasonable price, practical features, compact size and external display Cons: sprint coverage, sprint sms, sprint service, and no camera
I have had this phone for a year now. I bought it without much research, because I lost my previous phone. I have to say that for the price ($150) I would say it has all the features I could want. The color is great. I love being able to go to yahoo and ...
Pros: Great phone with color screen awesome browser organizer and configurability Cons: low battery power with backlight on.
I got the LG 5350 recently. I was pretty impressed by its features. Let me list the features first
Voice is a standard these days and it is really clear. So I will talk about the additional goodies. The reason for which one would buy a color phone ....
Pros: Color screen, voice dial, external display Cons: Capitalizes the first letter of everything and occasionally will not call out.
I bought the LG-5350 in my quest to upgrade to a color phone with web access and acquire a better rate plan. I shopped several models and snagged the LG phone when Sprint ran a $49.99 special in the Atlanta market. I am sure anyone who has shopped...
Pros: Nice color screen, great ringers, small.. Cons: Sprintpcs upload procedures, there is a way around!
Well, my old cell phone was on its death bed so i decided that i needed a new phone. I wasn't sure if i needed a color one yet or not, but being the tech geek i am, I DID.
I went with SprintPCS (due to their phone selection) and got the new...
Pros: Brilliant technology, beautiful design, & amazing sound & quality. Cons: Unsure about charges on internet connect & downloads, but that is all Sprint phones.
As with anything good that comes with my life, Sprint's LG5350 did not get into my hands with the greatest of ease. In the end, it was well worth the post-purchase satisfaction & enjoyment that I have received from this particular phone. The technology...
Pros: Small size, great organizer schedule, better than the Samsung N400 Cons: No speakerphone
My first vision phone was a Samsung SPH N400. This was a horrible phone. I have been a Sprint customer for more than three years and was very disappointed with this experience. After a month with the N400 I purchased the LG LX 5350. It is well made...
Pros: Beautiful color display, many ringtones, very customizable Cons: Tendency to reboot itself, awkward button locations
When Sprint came out with their new line of color phones, I totally ignored the LG because I was used to the old standard Sanyos and Samsungs. When I got the LG, I was not sorry. The phone has incredible features much more than the other Sprint phones...
Pros: Good, vibrant, colorful screen. Good options. Cons: Costs money to download extras. Bad default games.
This phone has a very bright, nice colorful screen. However, the screen's resolution is not as fine as the Samsung Vision models. For example, if you get a picture, you can tell it is a picture, but it also can look like a computer graphic. It looks ...
Pros: Small, light, great call quality Cons: Keys can be hard to punch. No "normal" rings.
This is my 3rd Sprint phone in 5 years. I really like it. The small size and light weight are big plusses. Call quality is very good. It is even better for the recipient of the call. I was on the receiving end recently, and couldn't believe how...
Pros: Brilliant Blue Backlighting; Easy to Use; Color Screen; Great Ringtones Cons: Occasionally Slow; Volume Dosen't Get Very Loud
This is a great cell phone. I got this phone on sale at a local store, because as soon as I saw the advertisement I was in shock. You can never get a color cell phone with all the features this one has for that price. At first I figured it would be...
Pros: Sleek design, excellent color screen, nice ringtones, good organizer. Cons: Expensive, easy to damage, cuts off alot
This my second phone with Sprint. The first one I had was a Kyocera (which I will write a review for). I went to Radio Shack with my broken phone and I asked for a color phone because I wanted to experience PCS Vision. The lady placed this LG phone in my ...
Worked great for about 1.5 years by leahjane10 ,Sep 12 '04
Pros: You can set the buttons to make a sound like water drops - funny! Cons: Didn't last me two years.
Volume and speakers are bad.
I got this phone when color screens were first available, and camera phones weren't around yet, so it was great. After about 1.5 years, though, it started going through batteries really fast. On a full charge, I can now make about two calls before I have to recharge it. It also will start beeping the low battery while I am talking, but when I hang up, it will go back to 2 out of 4 bars. The batteries have been tested, so it's the phone. Some more problems: 1. Love polyphonic rings tones, but many of the ones I have downloaded sound harsh/blaring when turned up....AND the ringer doesn't go very loud. I absolutely HAVE to have the ringer set to something with a high-pitched beginning or I won't hear it. 2. The arrow buttons are difficult to get to - makes playing games nearly impossible. 3. The buttons have to be pressed hard to register. 4. On mine, when I enter someone's name into the address book, the screen gets very light (only when entering into the address book!) and it's hard to read.
Pros: Small, lots of features, nice screen, external caller ID, reception Cons: no speaker, nothing else!
I purchased this phone as a replacement for my Samsung A400, which I found clumsy and awkward to operate at times. This phone is small and packed with features....great reception and vision capabilities make it useful and fun. I don't like the idea of spending $5 to download a game from Sprint, but besides that, I really can't find many faults. The caller ID shows through the flip, so you can see who is calling without having to open it.....there is an outside ringer volume/vibration control, which is so much easier than having to go into a menu to adjust as so many Nokias make you do. I would have liked to have a speaker on the phone, but the benefits of this phone far outweigh the cons.....additionally, I find it to be extremely hardy; I have allowed my children to use it while out, and it does not show worse for wear.
Decent Phone - Horrible Durability by boobee0007 ,Aug 26 '04
Pros: Typical Color phone nothing fancy. Cons: Durability stinks!, operates hot and does not start quickly.
I had this phone last year and had to replace it twice. The area where the phone flips began to crack and broke causing the phone to be inoperable. This same occurrence happened to both my new phone and my replacement phone.
The phone has decent features, though it lacks the camera abilities of most phones today. The unit does get very hot after prolonged use, so unless you don't talk much you are in for a face burn. Out the box the phone starts up very fast but after a few downloads of goodies you will notice the phone NEVER starts up fast again even if you try deleting stuff. If you are being chased by a killer and need to dial 911 and your phone is off, your best bet is running to a pay phone cause by the time your phone turns completely on you will be mugged/killed.
Pros: Perfect screen, great ringers, attractive look, small, easy to use, MANY GREAT AND USEFUL OPTIONS. Cons: Easy to scratch, no speakerphone volume, SLOW Start-up, battery life a little short.
I love this phone, it works great except for twice it has automatically shut itself off and restarted. It has tons of great features, Huge amount of pros, too many to list; few cons. Little pricey, but all sprint phones are. I highly recommend it to anyone.
