nice phone, old OS
By koku
I had this phone for two weeks now. I like it, but it was running on Android 1.5, which is really old. Many newer android apps may not be compatible to 1.5. Yes, there is a freeware on openetna.com, and I actually pushed 2.2 on it, but got mightily disappointed with 2.2: buggy, some features not working, the main problem was USB connection (or lack of such) to the PC as couldn't mounted SD card. Anyways, you get what you paid for, and in case of open freeware, it's nothing, so you shouldn't complain. I ended up pushing back a Korean LG version of OS which is 1.6. Now the phone runs better than on the original 1.5. Now, back to the phone. It's solidly built, somewhat small, but like it better than larger balkier phones. Battery life is good. Overall, it's all I was looking for: a smaller functional smartphone with WIFI, GPS, a media player capable of playing full MP4 movies, slider keyboard (I hate onscreen ones). I am giving it only 3 starts because of the old OS. Hopefully, LG will push an upgrade some fine day. I won't be "monkeying" with the open source firmware, unless I absolutely have to. In summary, I recommend this phone if you manage to upgrade it to 1.6

WARRANTY
By ruben dionisio
I ordered my LG GW620 unlock phone from worldwide distributors...I received the product on time but after a week, a problem arises...according to the website when I ordered it, it comes with a warranty. But when I called/e-mailed Worldwide Distributors...it took them a few days before they even respond to my inquiry and not willing to help me. They just told me to call LG and that's the end of it. Here I am with stuck with a malfunctioning phone and still trying to get help from LG.

lg gw620
By Jimmy Knoll
I just got this phone for christmas and it's great. It's my first smart phone so I haven't figured everything out yet but I love it. I use to have an LG Xenon and I thought that was good but this is far better. Everything just seems to just run faster, easier, smarter. Smarter the most important thing there. Android just makes sense. For example: I was texting someone and had the thread open. They didn't know what they said, so I was going to forward their message back to them. Being brand new to me, I wasn't sure how to forward a message. There was no option on the screen that said "Forward" like every other type of phone I had. So I said, "why don't i just try holding down my finger on his message and see what happens. Boom. There the option was. Just makes sense. Idk, maybe that's just me. But I like it. My only little problem is the oddness of the screen sensitivity. I put my thumb on the button to select and it doesn't even register sometimes. That's my only problem...for now. It's still too early to see the rest of the phone, to find my niche with it, which is usually what it takes to be able to say what's really wrong with it.Overall, love this phone.Emphasis on the fast processor, nice camera, fast internet, and emphasis on how it makes me happy
