User Reviews
JM - Devon-25/07/2008 Its a good all round phone I was pleased as soon as I seen it but when I started using it was even better. I was pleased with it cause it had a large screen and loud ringtone and I like the idea of the pen. Impressed with the service from the time I ordered my new phone.
PC - Merseyside-23/07/2008 I was very impressed by the general feel of the Lg viewty it felt like it was a quality bit of kit and the touch screen is nice and responsive, I particularly like the way the phone gives a vibration to confirm each touch of the screen. Other features that I was very impressed with were the video capture and the ability to enable slow motion playback, this coupled with the 5mp camera has eliminated the need to carrying a separate camera since the Viewtys camera is exceptional. On the downside I find that the battery life is not brilliant but what can anyone expect when so much is going on with the phone also the music library menu is not the clearest that I have seen but I can forgive it that. Generally, I love this phone and the only thing that I could possibly ask for that it doesn't have is sat nav...would I recommend this phone???....yes without question. 95 out of 100.
KM - Helensburgh-23/07/2008 The LG Viewty that I recently got is not only an unusual colour (purple) but a really stylish phone to own. It is so easy to use and I love the fact that it's touch screen! The quality from the camera is superb and you wouldn't know that the pictures had came from a phone.
SK - County Londonderry-21/07/2008 The LG Viewty is a great phone, It is a simple phone to use with straightforward menu, but also has a playful quality to it and anyone who loves their gadgets will love the LG Viewty!
PD - Accrington-15/07/2008 The phone is great, its a bit hard to get used to at first, especially the touch screen feature but I soon got used to it in a matter of days. The camera is superb and the sound quality is spot on, maybe it could be slightly louder. The biggest problem I find with the phone is when I'm searching for a contact, my names are not in alphabetical order, for what reason I'm not sure. Apart from that, on the whole the phone is impressive and stylish.
DH - Dagenham-15/07/2008 I'm well pleased with this phone, fast fun and enjoyable, and really easy to get to grips with epically the touch screen. Only problem is battery life isn't great. Apart from that a great phone.
Jonathan - Thames Ditton- The LG Viewty is a very grown up phone. With all these wonderful features there's so much to do. The touch screen can be a little pain but you will forget about it. The purple Viewty is definitely something to show off. With a nice shiny color this should also attract women. My view of the purple Viewty is 9/10.
