LG G4010 / G4011
Average Ratings
Yes!
I switched to GSM and was really unhappy with the decision⦠Until now. The things I ask from a phone are simple; Reception, a loud ring, and a strong vibrating alert. This phone fits the bill.
If youâre looking for a fun phone with flashing lights and java games you should probably look elsewhere but if you want a solid working phone get this one.
Terrible Quality
I have had this phone since December with Cingular, I have had it replaced 3 times, all for the same issue, reception. Its a GSM band for them so it supposed to be better on reception, I was in a major city had 5 lines and I kept dropping calls every 2 minutes. I had the phone replaced, they said it was a software issue. I had the same thing next time but this time they said it was where I was where reception was poor, come on in a major city where every one else's phone works but mine? I don't think so, I replaced it again, so far I have to wait to even get the phone to pick up before it even dials out. Would I buy one again.....never.
LG 4010 Great Phone
Just got the LG 4010 a couple of days ago. I am using it on Cingular in western MA. It's my first GSM phone. I am very pleased with it. Great sound, good reception. Easy to use. Smaller and lighter than I was expecting which was a big plus. I've been a loyal Nokia user but I think I will be getting the LG 4050 within the next week to upgrade my other Cingular line, which is TDMA, to GSM. Only CON is the screen could be a bit brighter.
rough start
When it was first released to Cingular there were soft wear issues with the phone. we had a TOM on complaints bout it Text messaging would not work, the phone would say emergency calls only all the time. They say that the new phones have the soft wear issues worked out, but I am still leary about the phone.
OK for a free phone
This seems to be an OK phone, but I've had difficulty with several things. First, no one can hear me using the headset if there is any kind of background noise, so I can't use the phone in the car with the headset at all. Second, the ring tone I've chosen doesn't ring. I've had other people look at the phone to see what I might be doing wrong, but no one seems to be able to figure it out. The message alert has a similar problem. Last, the screen is very dark. For a free phone, and if you don't use a headset, it seems to be fine - but I'm not keeping it for myself.
Do not get this phone!
My wife recently got this cell phone, and let me tell you, it has been giving us nothing but problems! For such a crappy phone, with so little software, you would not expect it, but believe me. THis phone is the pitts! Bad reception, rought flip action, ugly appearence.... the list goes on.
