 Disappointing, but gets the job done. July 11, 2010
Joyce A.
I've had this phone for four weeks now, and here are some points I'd like potential-buyers to read through.
PROS:
- Organized and intuitive interface.
- Built strong. A case wasn't necessary - I only bought a screen protector to prevent it from scratching.
- The slot for the charger/USB has a slide-cover instead of a flimsy rubber cover.
- Connectivity. This model is compatible with Mac operating systems (use iSync).
- When connecting to your computer, you are given a mass storage option, so it can act as an external drive if you wish.
- 5 megapixel camera. However, photo quality isn't great in many environments/settings.
- Wifi and bluetooth.
- Battery life is excellent. Many reviews claim their phone only lasts a day, but if you turn your wi-fi/bluetooth off whenever it's not in use, the phone can last up to three days.
- Excellent sound.
- 8 GB storage space.
CONS:
- If you live in the US, the power adapter it comes with may not work. I received a cheaply-made adapter from LG that looked like it had been chewed on, so I had to buy a new UK to USA adapter. A temporary solution is to charge your phone with your computer, via USB cable.
- Incredibly SLOW. I cannot emphasize this enough. It takes seconds for the phone to recognize that I'm trying to open an application or attempting to text. When the other customer reviews said it was slow, I didn't think it would be THIS severe.
- When turning the phone from portrait to landscape mode (or vice versa), the phone's accelerometer doesn't register the movement for several seconds, or doesn't rotate at all.
- Leaves an "imprint" of the last application open on the screen. When I'm on the homescreen, I can see faint outlines of my lock-screen or text messages.
- Occasional freezing.
- Limited storage reserved for text messages. Because this storage capacity was 8GB, I thought I could save a lot of my texts - this is not the case. It only holds about 300.
OTHER THOUGHTS:
- Make sure you know your PIN/PUK number when you insert your SIM card. Because I've had the same phone for years, I forgot my AT&T PIN and went through a ton of trouble trying to get it (theft accusations, stealing Joyce A's (my) SIM). Go to your provider first, and tell them you're switching to a new phone and would like your PIN.
- I was expecting a lot from a phone over $200, and I probably wouldn't have bought it if I had known it was going to be this slow. But it gets the job done, and is an alright alternative to the iPhone if you're interested in not being bound to a two-year contract.

 CALIDAD... May 18, 2010

With attractive metallic gray finish, the phone displays a fairly compact and attractive design. It is true that does not enjoy the elegance of others as the LG Secret, but it is nice to the touch and comfortable grip. A generous presentation support touch screen, capacitive type, 3-inch touchscreen along with three control buttons located under the same-key call, multifunction and End-and a front camera, which some have taken an interest and that it serves for video conferencing.
Con atractivo acabado en gris metalizado, el teléfono se muestra con un diseño bastante compacto y atractivo. Bien es cierto que no disfruta de la elegancia de otros como el LG Secret, pero es agradable al tacto y de cómodo agarre. A su presentación ayuda una generosa pantalla táctil, de tipo capacitiva, de 3 pulgadas junto a tres botones táctiles de control situados bajo la misma -tecla llamada, multifunción y Fin- y una cámara frontal, por la que algunos os habéis interesado y que, sí, sirve para realizar videoconferencias.
First phone I have really liked in years January 3, 2010

I have had 5 phones over the past three years, and this is the first with which I have been truly happy. Each of us looks for certain features as we learn what does not work with each new phone; for me, a clear readable screen (even without glasses) a good loud ring, (I kept missing calls with my Samsung 750,) and a responsive touchscreen (again, another frustration with my Samsung) all were the points that made me choose this phone, as well as the price and package I was offered by my mobile provider. (I must admit-in bright sunlight it is nearly impossible to make out the screen)
So far, after one month, I have been very happy with the phone. As a photograper, I agree the camera is just eh, your subjects MUST be still for a clear shot, but in the fine quality mode it is a pretty good shot for a phone camera.
I do find the sharp, brilliant screen and ample memory a big plus for me as a photographer. I carry my portfolio in my phone, and can show someone a great looking gallery of art shots that really is impressive with the color quality of the LG Arena.
Don't need GPS so far; so I have nothing to say about that-I find with ear buds the music sounds great-try the dolby sound. Without buds, a bit tinny, but loud enough to hear in your handbag or from another room-very important to me!
All in all, very pleased with this phone-I get a lot of compliments on its looks, as well, if that is important to you.
Beautiful, very functional mobile phone LG KM900 November 9, 2009

We think the LG KM900 is a nice telephone. It is very light, bright screen, and especially the camera mode is great, good resolution and flash! Good and easy internet or e-mail connection at a reasonable speed. Easy to set up features and personalize.
Weak point, the battery, it has not given us more than 2 days, even with little use during the weekends, while my i-phone will easily give me five to seven days.
