LG Rumor Green Review - At a Glance
At a GlanceEditor Rating:   4.54  5 3 5 5 5  What’s Good: Compact, rugged design with full QWERTY keyboard; Easy to use; Auto-rotating display; Good SMS, IM, and Email integration
What’s Not Good: Limited functionality beyond voice calling and messaging; No Power Vision access makes for slow Web browsing; Reports of laggy software and keyboard issues (I encountered none); Weak camera Bottom Line: Rumor is a basic candy bar phone with a focus on messaging, and in this regard it really shone in my tests. I found the handset easy and fun to use so long as I kept to its strengths: Messaging and more messaging with voice calling and limited Web and media functionality thrown in. Rumor’s comfy QWERTY board, rugged design and soft-grip finish, and auto-rotating display make it a solid choice for cell phone users who value texting as much (or more) as voice calling. Specs: Next: Introduction » Reviews by companyApple, BenQ, BlackBerry, Eten, HTC, LG, Motorola, Nokia, o2, Palm, Pantech, Samsung, Sanyo, Sharp, Sony EricssonOur fancy algorithm says this stuff is related...Sunday, October 12, 2008I've had my Rumor since it came out (over year ago) and it works like it did from the first day.
I would like to say that the problems some of you are experiencing are most likely your own fault, i.e. water damage, dropping it, 'playing' with the sliding feature.
But if you take care of the phone, I highly recomend it.
Some of you may not know, but Sprint is coming out with a new sliding keyboard phone, The Samsung Rant.
It is just like the Rumour but it slides the other way, it's physical features look different.
I believe the available colors are black, red, and a dark purple.
If it weren't for the Rant, I would keep my Rumor, but I'm curious about the Rant and I am going to get it in November.
I believe the Rant will be coming out by the end of October. Thursday, October 09, 2008THE GOOD
The LG Rumor has a lovely design, with a built-in hidden QWERTY keyboard for easy messaging. Features include a 1.3-megapixel camera, an MP3 player, Bluetooth, and more. It provides easy access to Facebook, plus it supports Sprint Navigation.
THE BAD
The LG Rumor does not have EV-DO, and surfing the Web can be quite slow. The screen has poor resolution, and the camera has no flash.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Though the LG Rumor is not as fast as we'd like, it's still a great messaging multimedia device for those who don't need a lot of speed.
http://www.LG-Rumor.com has more information. Wednesday, October 08, 2008hey noah this is patrick but every one calls me patty long story but i think you should keep mailbags cause i love them
so here's one for your next mail
im patrick or patty and i wanna get the lg rumor but i watching vid.s on youtube and ppl say their's are messing up....
and since your the man i wanted to know is the lg rumor actually good and worth my time...im a 14 year old who has unlimited texting.....will this phone be good for me Monday, October 06, 2008RumourBoy53, I have this phone and honestly I really do not like it. 100 Minutes a month is what I have, pretty easy to kill. You can't get free texting after a certain hour you probably have free minutes after 7. This phone has not really served me well. It does freeze up a lot. I would consider getting something that is the same brand (LG) but different phone. LG is a great brand, this phone however has some glitches. Monday, October 06, 2008i've had this phone for about 5 months now and its starting to fall apart. it has been signing on to the internet by itself for a while and been turning off with a full battery while im in the middle of typing. now the screen is starting to get get fuzzy and it kind of looks like white noise on a tv and its supposed to say message and contacts at the bottom of the main screen but it is starting to appear at the top and im not able to see my signal or battery power. i wouldnt call this phone a wise investment. Sunday, October 05, 2008alright here it goes
how much would a simple plan 450 wenevr unlim. txt cost after tax
original price 49.99 Friday, October 03, 2008yeah its great until the bottom half of the phone keyboard, volume sliders, and camera button dont work.
it went from being a fairly good phone to a POS brick Friday, September 26, 2008I've had this phone for over a week and I like it. Its definitely different from the Treo 700p I had. I personally enjoy the media player. I don't have power vision, so I can't take advantage of all the features the Rumor has. It's a GREAT texting phone, nice and stylish. Thursday, August 21, 2008Im getting this phone in a week im 14 im getting free texts free after 7 and 100 day time minutes is that good for the rumour? pelase reply Thursday, August 14, 2008no you cant, all you ppl that are on pre paid need to get a job, and the fone is amazin btw. Tuesday, July 15, 2008I am the real Miley Cyrus and I really want one of these are they cool???? Monday, July 14, 2008I got a LG Rumor for Sprint yesterday and I LOVE IT! When uou have the slide out keyboard if you didnt have anything open it will go to the messaging screen, but if you just keep hitting back it will go back to that screen.
I LOVE IT!!
and i dont know if you can use prepaid for it Saturday, July 12, 2008i have a question when you slide out the keyboard are you only able to message when the keyboard is out? Tuesday, June 17, 2008i have a question too..can i get this phone on a pre-paid plan for alltel? i also would like to know if i can just buy the phone and then get phone cards and use it..or do i have to get a plan right away.. Thursday, June 05, 2008I hav3 a question.....kan I us3 it pr3paid? |
