Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V Smartphone - Black (VM670) product details page

I bought this phone and it was really worth the price. It has cool apps like facbook, twitter and you can get games too! Once your get a cool cover like me, the phone is more durable. I'm suprised it was like [$], because a phone like this is definitly worth around [$]. Maybe that's why I always shop at target.

This is a very comfortable and easy-to-use phone. I got it on Cyber Monday for[$] It doesn't have the best battery life, but if you download good battery saver apps and turn off unnecessary apps then it's just fine. As far as quality goes...eh. It already has 2-3 small cracks in the screen and numerous scratches and dents on the back and sides, I haven't even been rough with it! You'll probably need a screen protector and case. Otherwise good phone!

I've had the LG Optimus V for almost a year now, and I still love it. It's definitely worth the price. With a case, it's a pretty sturdy phone and fits well in your hand. All of the features of the phone are great, and the battery life isn't too bad when you switch off unnecessary things such as GPS and bluetooth, dim the screen brightness, and most importantly download a good battery saver app. The camera on it isn't the best, it doesn't shoot well in low light or have a flash, but in good lig hting the camera does its job quite nicely. Probably my only complaint is that the memory filled up quickly, but you can get a larger micro SD card to expand the memory. Overall I think it's a fantastic phone for the price and I'd had a great experience with it.

The LG Optimus V is an amazing phone. After 9 months of continuous usage, it has stood the test and proved it's worth. This phone works on the amazing 2.2, never freezes, always does what I ask it, and has never had any kind of glitchy problems out of the ordinary. It has also stood the test with external durability. The outsides have a little chipping around the screen lining because of the material that area is made of, but it really doesnt do much to the phone. The ONLY thing I would cautio n against is the fact that even though android has the Swype feature, if you dont know how to use it, the regular keyboard is not perfect. It's pretty easy to hit the wrong keys and it doesn't auto correct your words, you have to actually hit the corrections in a list. BUT you can get custom keyboards from all over the place. If you are looking to buy a great, cheap smartphone with a very affordable unlimited plan, look no more!

This is a really awesome phone. The last VM phone I bought came in the mail with a minor defect, and so I emailed customer service and they sent me a new phone immediately. Phone service is just so expensive, and this is by far your best bet. [...] It's part of VM's Kickbacks program.

I bought this phone in June and I must say it is the best phone I have ever owned. It has been durable and dependable all six months. I am going to have to buy a new one soon because I have dropped it too many times and it is starting to show its wear and tear. Finally, though, a phone that breaks because of me, not poopy construction! If prone to dropping phones though, invest in a case if you can find one!

my husband purchased this on black friday for 50 bucks and he really is upset he didnt buy me one. Im on tmobile and needed a sim card in my phone. This one had none. Anyway he likes it very much. Already he had to reset it once thinking app interference cause he downloads everything. It rebuilt itself flawlessly and hes pushing the limit on what it does. movies games navigation it works well in all. Just upgraded memory to 16gb and now can watch home videos.YAY. Linking the google acct to the market is awesome. He travels as a trucker and found the coverage just as good as verizon. The sound quality was very good as well. for a prepaid phone this is far better than the tracfone we had back in the mid 90s

Love this phone, true the battery life is kind of a pain, but you can find apps to help with that. Very quick when searching online. The swype could be a little more responsive, but nothing to really worry about. If you are new to android phones, I highly recommend this phone.

I've only had this phone for about a month but I've been through a lot of phones and this is by far one of the best especially for the cost of the phone and plan. It seems heavy duty and good quality but sure to get one with a 30 day warranty and insurance because i got mine broken and had to get a replacement. I didn't knock off many stars because I have unnaturally bad luck with electronics. It also takes a while to figure out how to use the more complex functions but overall is pretty intuit ive.
