After 6 months these phone gets slow it takes too much time to open gallery. its browser is also slow and you will get display problem after some months but you can avoid these by taking the phone cover. And download memory booster and mobile RAM booster from getjar.com due to these the phone will work smoothly

I bought this LG pop GD510 in 2010 for £90 thinking that it was amazing and interesting, but to entertain you it is extremely boring and there is simply nothing to do but look through your own photos or write memos. It is really slow, the camera is not bad at all but the phone is extremely boring and is very bad at entertaining you. The touch screen is good and the phone overall is decent but for me after 6 months I got really bored of it and wanted a new phone. So this is not the phone for you if you want to play games and have fun :)

I had my lg for about a year, and then one day it just froze, and because I was just out of my year guarantee (by 8 days) lg could do nothing about it. I could not buy a new touch screen, so had to buy a new phone. The screen scratched really easily, and there wasn't enough memory in the inbox, so sometimes failed to send/receive messages. It was an okay phone, but I expected a lot more.

The lg pop is a really good phone, I found a few problems with such as poor memory, and tends to freeze a lot. But this phone is otherwise excellent. The screen has however broke twice within the first year of purchase, although a few of my friends also have this phone and have experienced no problems with it. I f you are looking for an lg phone in particular this is the phone for you!

I have a LG POP and I love it, its amazing and I agree its much better than the cookie and much lighter too. Although I have bought two copies of the first because my first one started buzzing when it was turned off. So my phone company sent me another one. This phone now does it and I have come to terms that maybe its the cookie that should have been bought...

MAJOR problem with this phone - it locks when making an automated message call - by which I mean 'dial 1 for.. dial 2 for'. It also locks when listening to answerphone messages that are longer than about 10 seconds. Carphone Warehouse say they have 'never heard anyone complain of this problem' or 'everyone has this problem. I don't believe it for a second.

This phone is probably one of the worst phone that has ever dropped into this planet. There is nothing that is more useless. How can they say it is a phone if you cant call and text. After maybe a week the problems start rolling in. You turn off the phone and switch it back on you start getting texts that you should have recieved ages ago!! Sometimes when in the middle of a text or a call it just freezes, for no reason what so ever!! Personally i dont think it deserves any stars but since I have to give some it will be 1. But I beg of you save your money and dont buy it and dont listen to the others that say it is good

I've not had the phone for long, only a few months, and I've found it to be a really good phone to begin with. Texting is reasonable, it can take some getting used to if you're not used to touch screens however. The speakers are loud and the headphones that come with the phone are pretty decent. However, my touch screen has started to play up recently, one minute it would be responsive and the next you can't do anything with it since it is completely unresponsive. I wouldn't have been too concerned about this since sometimes you can just have some bad luck, but a friend with the same phone also had the same problem as me and now has a replacement phone.

I have this phone on a 2 year contract, id had it a year when it started acting strange, id be texting people and it would randomly turn off even though it was fully charged. Also at times i would click reply to a message and it would say 'maximum number of applicants' even tho i hadnt added any. so i took it back to the store and they fixed it, but a week later it would do the same thing. so they have given me a brand new LG POP and from the first day of having it it wont charge. i leave it on for hours and it still says low batetry in 2 weeks it has fully charged only once! i am going back to car phone warehouse tomroow!

Well I got this Phone Yesterday I am so impressed with the lg pop I lost my samsung tocco lite so i decided to buy a cheap phone while i got a new one i ended up loving the phone so i am keeping it and not getting a new one The Communication the contacts are easy to read and clearly displayed The recent history is clearly displayed too. Messaging They are easy to follow so you wont get lost easy to delete.but not many emoticons to use though. Email I find is a waste of space myself as it takes time to set up the email account Dialling is easy to use big clear numbers and easily displaying what number you have dialled Contact Are easily displayed as what you have saved and the ones that come with the sim card Speed Dials are easy to enter and you get 9 choices Voice mail comes with it as number 1 New Message easy to make a message clear letters and easy sending options and easy to see what you have entered. ENTERTAINMENT: Camera Very poor mega pixels with only 3 and if its dark very hard to see the picture easy editing and a full range of sepia and water colour for any person who isn't very tecchy. Gallery: Easy displayed photos and it shows your drawing panel drawings too My Stuff: easily displayed two options phone stuff or saved stuff I think Music: love the layout and I absaloutly love the idea of rating the song <3 Games and Apps Love the pocket apps but I don't get the mellow candle and mind selector FM Radio good selction of radia stations and easy displayed Video Camera Agian poor mega pixels having a measly 3mp Moovie studios love the idea as it wont let you get bored but you cant put your drawing panels onto the movie UTILITIES: Tesco Moblile slow loading pages and clear pages to read off Alarms good load alerts and easily displayed to use the alarm widget Organiser Easy to use memo easy to see and easy writing T9 is an option Voice Recorder Easy to use and clear recording picks up the slightest of sound though

DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From the first day of purchase, it started doing faulty things. After a few weeks, I found that the battery life was messed up (you charge it for ten hours and it will last about 2 before running out again.) A few weeks after that I found that whilst charging, it would turn itself off randomly, so it wont charge at all. Also, many times the screen freezes, but I find if i take out the battery and put it back in it tends to do the job. However, not, the touch screen has just failed. It turns on and off fine, but i cant access it because the screen wont work. Thinking it was just my phone that was faulty, I did some research and found that MANY OTHERS have EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM with their LG pops. DO NOT BUY. Waste of money.

I have tried really hard to like this phone, but after about three months I have given up and am looking for another. When the phone is in my pocket, unless the handset lock is on, there is a real danger of the phone randomly phoning or texting anyone on my phone list. On one occasion it sent 87 texts, fortunately to someones landline. Expensive for me but at least not annoying for the recipient on that occasion. I have therefore taken to using the handset lock whenever I go anywhere, unfortunately this then means I cannot use my bluetooth handsfree in the car. The touchscreen scrolling feature is somewhat hit and miss, no doubt the result of the less responsive cheaper system, but it is an inexpensive phone. Such a shame, I really would like to continue using this phone, but I cannot have it phoning people whenever it chooses and it has to be carried in a pocket. I am now reluctant to replace the phone with another smart phone in case the same thing happens.

Not too great battery life and confirmation messages taking an age get tedious. Gave mine to my niece, she seems happy.

I started using my kids dslite sticks....but they just get lost. Now I have stuck a celophane pouch on the back, and just slot in a cocktail stick! They dont scratch, and cost nothing to replace! Stylus and somewhere to attach it would be a bonus if they want to improve the design.

I've used the LG pop for 5 months now. The main thing to point out is it's lag which grows on you and become very annoying, It takes a 2-3 seconds to load the address book and another 2-3 seconds to search and then it;s more wait once you select the contact! the accumulated wasted seconds from all the steps from the menu to finally calling or texting feels like a very long time! On top of that, the LG user interface is still not well thought out, not customizable enough requires too many steps to get simple things done. No doubt great design, but I wasn't expecting the sluggish performance
