The Little Vibrator

by Ginger_1 , Oct 28 '00
Pros: Small size, vibrate feature
Cons: Battery life, flimsy flip
I had this phone for about 2 months before I passed a chair,and the flip ripped right off of this phone, cracking the hinge that held it on. I always carried this phone on my waist. I loved the little thing so much that I bought a leather case for it...

A Wonderful Phone!

by EpinionKing , Jul 19 '00
Pros: Great Features, Great Clarity, Great Accessories
Cons: Possibly the Small Size?
When I signed up for my cellular phone plan, I was given the Ericsson LX-788. I was skeptical of this phones capabilities being so small and all, but as time progressed so did my love for this phone!
The size of the phone can is both a pro...

A Fine Fone with a Flimsy Flipper

by fritz_t_coyote , Aug 20 '01
Pros: Small, multi-band, inexpensive, reliable
Cons: Analog Mode Battery Life, fragile flip door.
Reality Check: I 'bought' this phone because it was the only flip-face offered 'free' with a year of ATT service. I selected the service because it was the best plan for -my- situation.

This phone will not accidentally place a call, as all...

Great phone for the size and price

by ksu96 , Jan 18 '01
Pros: Very small and lightweight
Cons: Relatively short battery life
I really like my Ericsson LX788. And believe me, as a Nokia (NOK) shareholder, it really pains me to admit it :-)

This phone is by far the smallest phone for the price that I've seen. I paid $19 for the phone (no, it's not a misprint) and I...

Ericsson 788 Hell

by catbau , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Size and weight
Cons: Calls do not send on first try and more
I am a coordinator with my city's school system. I travel to many different schools throughout the day. One day I was lost trying to find a school, that I knew was very close by. My cell phone kept going out. I would be talking and the thing would...

zzzz bzzzzz zzzz uhhumm bbzzzzz huh?

by smooth1974 , Oct 24 '00
Pros: size and weight
Cons: poor signal and staticy
I had this phone for all of 3 hours before I ran back to the store to return it for my Nokia that I love. This phone bites the big one. I thought it looked neat and had good features, small, and easy to use. Bah humbug. It was a piece of junk. I can...

great little phone

by axis11 , Aug 01 '00
Pros: small size
Cons: flip front will wear out
I got a lx-788 free with my service plan. While the service plan I have leaves a lot to be desired(SunCom...but that's another story), the phone itself is great. It's dual mode and has text messaging capabilities. When my service provider is...

DON'T GET ME STARTED!

by mm685 , Jun 20 '01
Pros: Small, extremely light
Cons: Poor quality, reception; takes too long to place a call
The Ericsson LX-788 is the worst cell phone you can buy. The only things that are okay are its size and weight. I don't currently own a LX-788, but did about a year ago. Within a week of purchasing the phone, I found its flaws right away. First of...

Great Phone

by dramatic1 , Jun 29 '01
Pros: Its small and has a flip cover that protects the buttons
Cons: Takes some time to figure out the menus
I purchased this phone because I had a previous phone that I would leave in my bag and if something brushed up against the on button, the phone would turn on and run out the battery. This phone was a little bit older so the charge would last for about an...

Cons: Durability
I bought the Eriksson LX788 about 1 ½ ago and have found the overall this phone is OK at best. I have had very little problems with clarity or connectivity. I travel extensively and rely on this phone often. I use this phone on a regular basis up to...

Steer clear of Ericsson

by thebige76 , Nov 24 '00
Pros: Compact
Cons: Buggy
I got this phone as a replacement for an Ericsson phone that was lost. I should have known to stay away from these phones. Both phones had the problem of not providing a keypress tone 100% of the time, when a key had been pressed. A minor annoyance,...

Lousy Product Quality

by baggachipz , Jan 09 '01
Pros: Small
Cons: Poorly Made, Screen is very small
I purchased this phone because, at the time, it was the smallest phone available for my AT&T digital plan. I wanted a small phone so that it would fit nicely in my pocket. And it did. The phone has most of the features I was looking for:...

Not my first choice but...

by mdbrown , Mar 17 '02
Pros: Small size, flip, ease of use, low cost accessories
Cons: skimpy feature set, somewhat fragile, spotty quality, short battery life
My experience with this phone has been pretty positive overall. In reading other reviews and speaking with other owners though, it's obvious that it depends on what day of the week your phone was made! I've been careful not to let anything happen to the...

CELL PHONES

by jwsl70399 , May 31 '01
Pros: SMALL,CALLER ID,
Cons: NOT ALWAYS CLEAR,
I had gotten an Ericsson LX-788 phone for my birthday which was about a month ago. I like this phone because its very small and it can travel anywhere with me. It also had a $50.00 mail in rebate which covered the cost of the phone. I think that it...
