What's great about it: physical qwerty keyboard
What's not so great: battery life, lack of instructions on aps
Love the phone but the battery life is not great. Takes good pictures. Doesn't have instructions to explain all the icons on phone or how to do certain things.
This product is... Easy navigation, great texting

What's great about it: Physical QWERTY Keyboard
What's not so great: Short Battery Life
I love having Android Phones, but I did miss having a physical keyboard for texting as I could never get used to swype. The Optimus Q has a great slide-out keyboard for easy and fast texting, and the phone feels good in the hands when sliding open. The 800mHz processor may seem a tad slow in comparison to higher-end models, but this phone is pretty speedy when multitasking. Touch screen is very responsive, and the 3.2 MP camera takes great pictures. The only downside is the battery life is a little short, even when making sure very few apps are running in the background, but that tends to be common among android phones and not just to this model, and to compensate, it charges up very fast. A great little phone that I would recommend for anyone who misses having a real keyboard to text with.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Review 3 for NET10 - LG Optimus Q No-Contract Mobile Phone - Black
Good phone for the price
Customer Rating

What's great about it: Cheap and good enough for a disposable phone.
What's not so great: Battey life
I purchased the phone for $150, you need a $50 card, so total cost was $200 w/taxes. Net10 service is not the greatest, but you find that you can resolve some issues online. It's hit or miss so keeping that in mind, buyers beware. My personal experience has been great so far. I think for a disposable service the cost to problem ratio is good enough to risk going with Net10. Why do I emphasize so much on the customer service? Because the only time you will complain about this phone is if you can't get it to work properly with the net10 service.
The phone itself it's a typical android phone, if you don't like apple's restrictive policy, then Android is the only logical choice available. The phone uses Sprint (for data/text and phone) in my area. The processor on this phone is snappy enough to deal with most apps and since it's running on 2.3 version of Android OS, it's more than enough to feel smooth without bogging down as you flip and slide through the phone features. The best part I liked, there's good support in the Android hacker community. You can find a root that can unlock the phone OS, and there's a very good rom available that further speeds up and optomizes the OS (just google ArearomQv1.5Red).
The interface is 100% percent customizeable so you are not stuck with the same look (app ADWLauncher). The sliding keyboard is my favorite part for this phone, since for me, I waste too much time correcting mistakes due to my fat fingers. The usual apps are in place, google map w/ navigation for GPS replacement, wireless tethering (rooted phone only) if you need to connect a laptop to use the internet, messaging, and all the google apps that make life easy. I tried playing netflix, but the phone was not up to par, the video was too choppy. What's not so great? The battery life. If you turn on wifi, bluetooth, navigation or use any app then prepare for a short 4 hours of use. For talk time and messaging try 12 hours, if that. So don't forget the power adapter. Overall I'm quite satisfied with this phone, so satisfied that I will be buying another one for the wife. The best part, I don't feel ripped off by being stuck with a contract, and in a year, if I'm tired of this phone, then being out of $150 is no huge deal since there will definetely be a much more advance model by then for half the price.

What's great about it: the picture quality, easy with keypad and great with security
What's not so great: the price
I just purchased my phone yesterday evening, it is great having a phone where the screen does not move unless you want it to move. I love the qwerty keypad, very easy to use unlike my old phone i would have to touch the letter and wait a few seconds to touch again it the word required a double letter.. this is a better phone, just don't like the price to much.. quite expensive for someone on a budget...
This product is... Easy to use keypad/keyboard, Short battery life, Lightning fast, Great picture quality, Tough/durable, Good video quality, Good call quality, does need a stronger signal

What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: Nothing
This phone is awesome alot like a I Phone but an android which I think is a better operating system. So your not tied to just a apple or mac platform Itunes is not cheap. Phone is easy to use and the slide out keyboard really makes it easy to text. The Net 10 service is great strong signal and great coverage. If you sign up for them to renew your minutes every month on a credit or debit card it is only $45 a month instead of $50 a month. No contract opt out anytime you want no activation fees and no termination fees. Love this phone.

What's great about it: adroid apps
What's not so great: support for android
Unless you want to spend hours on the phone with NET10 customer service because the system has deactivated your phone over and over night after night after night.... go with a different company.
