[MrAwar123]

[Tiptup300]

To everyone, his is the worst phone ever. Do not get it, even if it's free. It's extremely slow, you have to like put extreme pressure for it to detect your finger and it's just....just....look at that bezel.

[TheMegaPaintballman]

i just pooped on that phone

[vinngrizzle]

phones not bad lg could of made it a little more less cheesy plastic did drop mine in the toliet and it still works i got it for the wifi

[FlyingPirateMan]

is this phone worth $150 unlocked with windows mobile 6.1?

[Comikkaze]

@FlyingPirateMan unlocked? for 150 yeah... but if you can, avoid this phone and get an HTC phone

[KingDProblem7]

its alright i guess my girlfriend has it..it lasts really long for a touch-screen phone..

[revolvolut1on]

This phone looks very ... slow.

[reymysteriofan25]

that phone is a piece of crap!!!!!

[billiam4212]

i love how he says at like 2:40ish "theres no stylus with this device its all meant to be used with a finger" and yet he talked about how they give you a stylus and he showed it. So i really dont know what hes getting at like he complains about how impractical the stylus is and then he acts like he needs one and then wants one at like 4:05 again so lol idk

[Dsay34]

Phone sucks ass it freezes way too much

[billiam4212]

ive heard if you flash it a reload the stuff you need it pwns but as is your prolly right

[MuFFiN311]

it actually does have a pen that comes with it i got the same phone

[MrChuy775]

this phone sucks....they should of made it with a bigger screen.

[impossibleznothing]

wats at&T

[slmsdy]

a cell phone service?

[impossibleznothing]

eh...what tht?sorry....lol i mean what does it do?

[slmsdy]

no offence but your a idiot........ google it

[GuyaNesEGyAll59]

Wi-Fi?? So We DonT paY foR inTerneT??..

[madville2230]

is this phone any good

[NewEnglandSportsDude]

better than the iphone

[dumasaaron1]

This phone sucks! It freezes all the time and is very slow. Everything is tiny so unless u have freakishly long fingernails or a stylus its hard to use. Dont buy i regret getting i

[impossibleznothing]

really?

[iTZSxBRiANxFOO]

iight i got this phonee.

and it has

wi-fi.

and it has

built in AIM.

so if i sign on does it cost ?

i got unlimited textt.

if that matters ?

[UhavebeenPoned]

Is this phone any good...?

[aandrew610]

i liked mine at first until it developed freezing problems around the 4th month i had it.

[impossibleznothing]

wats freezing??it hangs...

[GhostKid0201]

can u set ringtones for text messgaes??? an does it ring loud?? cuz the shine does neither

[anthonysteelflex]

yes u can set ringtones for txts but its kinda weird cause for some reason it dosnt pull up all the songs that u have on ur phone it only brings up a few but it will ring pretty loud i can hear it from the other side of my house

[iTZSxBRiANxFOO]

ringtone for text - nahh .

ring loud - eh ? its iightt .

[BiNkYbAbY616]

Eww, it looks so chuncky.. im getting the lg vu only 15.00 w/ contract.

[elkikenene]

It sucks... Windows mobile it sucks.. its slow!!! I have an HTC TILT and I don't like it thought it has many nice useful functions but what for if sometimes doesn't work correctly

[wizardguy56]

wats better lg incite or lg vu

[babyggman]

i would say lg vu for alot of reasons and the biggest one is because the lg vu is way faster and better.

[funkymonkey556]

I have this phone and now I have a problem with youtube. I was able to watch youtube videos before. But I changed the way the website looks like and now whenever I want to watcha video it says "hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of AdobeFlash player"

HELP ME!!!

[VinsanityZero]

Install the latest Flash player?

[windreaver6]

use skyfire it renders flash applications server side =P

[VinsanityZero]

Oh nice! Got it on my Incite and it works beautifully without you having to install any extra plugins :D

[hthrvrgn]

this phone looks really cool. i like the boxy look. and the silver mirror finish is pretty.

[SKATERNAMEAJ]

the lg impression is the best phone ever

[FaKeSkAtEr972]

samsung impression budday

[bmxbike525]

its samsung impression not lg impression

and iphone 3g is best phone ever =)

[highschboy]

the lg incite is a really cool phone. it has it has a few complaints that should be improved on but that's with any phone.  overally you get your money's worth!!

[quest8899]

whats better this or the samsung eternity.

[jwuanawkward]

i wanted dis but now i want the eternity

[quest8899]

what about the impression...

[topgun4546]

is the weather feature free or do you have to pay for it ?????????

[jwuanawkward]

free

[RavenSword2014]

I'm getting a new phone soon, but after watching multiple conflicting reviews of both the Incite and Vu, I don't know which one I should get.

Anyone who owns one or both phones have any suggestions/pros and cons?

[Shizinator2012]

i think a good choice would be the eternity. i recently got one becuz it just went on sale where i live for $50 after the mail in rebate. my brother has the vu and the touch screen is not very responsive, which makes it very hard to txt and scroll. i think that the eternity has a very well responsive touch screen, and another thing is that it has a much longer battery life than the vu.

[impossibleznothing]

Lg eternity??whats the name and the price pl?

[footworkassassin]

There no such thing as a lg eternity. there's a Samsung eternity.

[xxxCandyGlossxxx]

Between the vu and incite i would get the vu because it has bigger buttons on the touchscreen.

[masterd151]

After using the Incite for a while, it gets alot easier to do pretty much anything without needing the stylus...I never carry mine anyways.

With some tweaks the phone gets alot better than the stock out of the box setup

[burningrubber318]

Is this phone easy to get on Youtube and is it gonna be easy to text on cuz i dont wont a shit phone can SOMEONE please tell me which phone to get the INCITE OR THE IPHONE please reply back anybody

[xxxCandyGlossxxx]

Well the iphone is easier to text on because it has bigger buttons on landscape mode and T9.

[hthrvrgn]

iphone iphone iphone. easy to txt and you can do so much with it. worth every penny, my friend.

[viperchrisz4]

no, no, no, u also have to pay extra for the plans lol

[FoxCityFilms]

Yeah, I have an iPod Touch and I'd love to stop carrying two devices and just get the iPhone, but there is no way I'm paying for the mandatory data plan!

[vonjose888]

Great Review.

[NguyenEmpir3]

How does the voice command work?

[jrrj912]

do u think the phone is worth it ?? cause i hav the matrix now but its defective so sould i get the incite ?!?!?!?!?!?!answer bak someone

[Rhythum150]

Go for it its nice..light weight...but its just pretty thick..=)

[gigliolasabes09]

omg!'

is at&t the only ones who have this phone?!

please someone let me know!!!

[Rhythum150]

Yes they do..GO BUY IT =) xD its cool..Cause my bro has one..and i have the LG VU

[GamMan93]

Which is better Vu or incite

[Rhythum150]

Are you like a smart phone person than get the

Incite...If you just want something that fits in your pocket for sure get the LG VU

[GamMan93]

I dont want anything complicated like a blackberry. I have a sprint rumor right now and love it and how simple it is. But my mom is making me switch to AT&t ad the Vu is what she wants to get me. So if the other is complex i guess shes right and ill get the Vu. Is the Vu user friendly? Cus again my mom has a blackberry right now and i hate how complicated that thing is.

[nightzebra97]

oh yeah the lg vu is really user friendly. WAY less complicated than the incite.

[Rhythum150]

I go with the VU user friendly and EASY to call people and other things that you want to do..

WAY LESS COMPLICATED...So i go with the Vu..

When you get the VU you'll be happy..No doubt

[hthrvrgn]

get the iphone, lol.

[hthrvrgn]

actually if you like the rumor and you're switching to at&t you'd probably like either the samsung propel or the pantech slate. nice messaging phones with QWERTY keypads, yet simple.

[stupidskits3]

the incite has better reception. both screens r hard to push, but that is good so it doesnt go on something acidently.

[damng15]

this phone is alright

but its really slow and freezes some times

you have to turn it off alot. the messaging sometimes doesnt work and that freezes too

the stlyus is koo but if you put it on the side of the phone it really scraches it up bad

i recommened not to place and also whenever someone calls you, the caller id SOMETIMES shows up...

[endmiguel]

i think this phone is ok but it will be better with "spb mobile shell" its is one of the coolest thing about windows mobile

[tannerday]

i don't know about this phone. its all touch screen

[saif03paul]

y is this only 100 buks???

[coderpunk]

not really

at a radioshack by me

its free with new contract 2 yr .. and 60 bucks a month for services

[hockeyfan3394]

probably because it's slow and unresponsive. I was tempted too, but I'm certainly not going to get it if it is as slow as this video shows it to be and as slow as critics are saying it is.

[luisoe1]

it seems like a good phone well thats what i heared?!!!

[CENAfan526]

seems like this woud be my kinda fun bc i like styluss keeps screen finger print free easy and its small enough to get it donw in one tap... plus u can put it on the left corner wit tht string

[fabster1001]

does this phone play mp4

[03veritas]

only apple products play the special mp4 song files

[fabster1001]

well can it play movies from computer

[Kracg999]

I don't think the phones that bad, I don't use the stylus and I don't have much problems with lag changing to screen, My calls havn't been dropped the phone doesn't feel cheap but it feels slightly bulky it has a good camera. Screen scratches easy but if your buying it from bestbuy make sure to pick your self up invisibleshield for it. My biggest problem is the memory, You need to buy a microSD or you won't really experience your phone to the fullest extent.

[xxJoeyRocksxx101]

i just got this phone yesterday i reccomend it to other ppl you have to play around with it to figure out its features thoe

[ScottLikesDinosaurs]

i dont like your review of the incite >:(

[slipknot2297]

alright well thank you

[slipknot2297]

Alright i'm gitting my new phone on may 1 is this a good phone or should i look for a new one, please answer my call.

[cutesidneyx3]

they say this one isn't that good, & windows mobile phones aree slow, i recommend the samsung eternity or , Lg vu.

[019dd]

is it me or does every DG touch smart phone seem to feel cheap and not respond as well as they should when touched

[SuperMcMac]

does it need a data plan

[stuffrentalcom]

help with Incite

w w w. LG-Incite. com

[drakgrotta]

SWEET WORK MAN!

[emill45]

anybody who has this phone can u tell me if u can like customize at all

[andymilonakis82]

the incite has a much better touch screen response. both the vu and incite have little problem with scrolling through emails, texts or the web browser. but overall the incite is much better,

[ChavezE12321]

can anyone tell me how good the touchscreen is compared to the lg vu..

(anyone who reads this can respond)

[shakemiameekyleia]

I have the lg vu; trust me dont get it ! i've been through 2 phones since I got it last year in may. the only thing good about it is tv on the go other then that there is no special features.

[fenixssanai27]

LG FTW~~YEAH~~I'm using LG phone!!

[shakemiameekyleia]

I plan to upgrade in a few weeks and im leanin towards this phone and the iphone but

this phone seems to move kind of slow and seems

like it's gonna be a hassle for a touch screen phone.

[pianistofsymphonia]

its windows mobile.. u would have to expect the slowness.

if u get an iphone ud probably have to jailbreak it so u dont have to pay all the crap.

So im returning my iphone soon hehe.

Get the incite!

[shakemiameekyleia]

the only thing I hate is when I went to at&t they didn't have the phone on the floor so I couldn't play with it myself. but I'm already with at&t the only thing I would have to pay for is the data plan with the iphone so my bill is only 50$ a month just like now. I'm still debating it but on tuesday I upgrade so I'll make a decision then. but I'm leaning towards the iphone just because I have sooo many issues with lg phones except the cheap ones. lol

[pianistofsymphonia]

oo..

yeah im returning my iphone for the incite lol :]

[t0mh3ntz]

att did not make it.

LG did, att bought the phone

[guerillafresh08]

wow at&t should have stopped at the iphone as for as touch screen n never made this, it looks like crap n it is very slow at responding not to mention how small everything is! well i have the samsung instinct, its the best touch phone out there cheyaaaa!! lol screw the iphone n the wack ass dare!

[BboyVap0r]

no offense but instinct sucks... wen i had sprint i got the htc touch cuz it was way better

[AppleS0ft]

disagree, i have the instinct and its way better then my previous win mo divice...plus my instinct has almost any feature you could ever want, plus its way more responsive then most phones.

[roadblockakapc]

but you can update you web wit oprah moblie wich is very very good

[onslowhenry]

its kinda slow two im leaning towards the eternity

[1maginaryk1ssez]

I'm not exactly sure if it's the phone or the guy reviewing, but there's actually another review done by a channel called pocketnowvideo and it worked a lot faster then this guy and was a breeze to use it. Check it out there.

[onslowhenry]

hey guys which do you think is better lg incite or samsung eternity PLZ reply! Quick my contract ends this week

[adrenalinerush92]

hey, i just got my eternity today. i wanted the incite, but when i researched bout it, most of them said that the incite is very unresponsive .. all it has is wi-fi, well you can get the eternity and pay 35 bucks for unlimited texting and media net.

so really you should get the eternity. It's really cool..i wont put mine down LOL.

[BboyVap0r]

id sa get the incite it has windows mobile and wi fi...if ur not getting data plan. stuff on the incite seems small but its not i had the htc touch which is smaller and u get used to it really fast! go check both out thought

[pianistofsymphonia]

haha yup i was playing with one and it real cool!

Im getting mine sometime this week for $50 at radioshack!! :]

[fenixssanai27]

Great.

[mcximus]

i will have in a day or two cuz at&t in my area is out of it.

[DocHockey29]

i have the same stylus for my dare

[DocHockey29]

lg's all about shine lmaoo

[SupaflyMason]

IT COMES WITH A STYLUS IN THE BOX!!!

[lexxanii]

dang, that phone sure is slow!

[lexyota]

Its virtually a mobile PC...so SHADDAP!!!

[Chaos4me]

Hmmm if the words, Apps, and everything was a little bigger, it would totally be my new phone!! :)

[Ghostwhistler]

I've had this phone for only a day and I'm choosing to return it.

As Michael mentioned, it is quite difficult to navigate without the stylus, due to the very small applications.

Granted, it is a very nice display, the external, dangling stylus is bound to annoy.

The lag is only a minor issue - nothing too drastic to report there.

Ultimately I will be looking for something a little more user friendly in the areas of touch screen mobility.

[BBallAEcam13]

Its so ugly, display is terrible, and its very laggy. Not worth it. Usually LG does good when designing phones, but this time it wasn't so good, at all.

[ahffk]

prolly because its one of their first smartphones....

they usually only make featurephones, but this time they had to use Windows Mobile since its a smartphone...

but i hav to say this one's screen is impossible to use without a stylus...too small

[phuocst11]

i think it is very nice,Style.199USD ^^ Great

[atlaschooty]

nice phone.... but not my style/////

[jellotime91]

It's very good looking.

[mobileburn]

Damn, deleted the comment about the typo in the description. Thanks to whoever it was that pointed that out.

[tandersn9]

wow i dont know about that phone. Seems very dated.

[mobileburn]

Yeah, I don't like it. Under powered.

[redthunderz1]

nice review lol. Life sure is good

[ipodtouchandxbox360]

nice review
