Keyboard comes in handy as does bluetooth Cons: Annoying updates, integretated dialing pad/keyboard takes some getting used to. The Bottom Line: I would say that overall this is a good phone for the price.? Review: Okay, first of all I would like to state that I am not your average cell phone user.? I don't care for texting and I have no use for mobile I-net.? from Shopping.com Cons: Dialing phone numbers is more difficult than you'd like. The Bottom Line: A great phone that says you dare to be different. Review: The LG Lotus is like the Nissan Cube of phones. It's fun, funky and functional. from Shopping.com Pros: Clamshell design (no butt-calling), qwerty keyboard, good camera, bluetooth, loud speaker, e-mail capabilities Cons: Poorly designed hinge, scratches easily, short charging cable, no FM transmitter, no contacts address field The Bottom Line: Awesome phone idea, just needs some refining on it's design to make it more durable Review: Overall, let me first say that I love?the LG Lotus (LX600)?despite it's flaws.? I am the queen of butt-calling, so the clamshell design was just for me.? from Shopping.com PROS: The phone is very pretty, sharp-looking, & not your typical cell phone shape. CONS: The keyboard is harder to use than other qwerty keypads. from Amazon.com I got this phone for xmas, i was so excited to find it, i love having a flip phone and wanted a full keyboard for texting. so this phone was perfect.. i loved it until March when it just stopped holding a charge and powered off displaying the LOTUS screen. i lost everything on the phone, and Sprint charged me $35 for another one. from Amazon.com Applications don't work or are not available, weather radar has worked only a few days of the year I've owned the phone. Sprint apparently didn't contract with LG for all this phone could have done. Great concept, but I've had nothing but trouble with it. from Amazon.com You can add a limited selection of 'features' to the carousel--mostly data-gathering web features like weather reports and stock tickers--it's a very limited list of pre-chosen items, you can't make up your own, and you can't add menu items. If you want quick access to a menu item (such as the calculator, note pad, or alarm clock) you can add it to the 'shortcuts' carousel item which puts it in sort of a quick-menu, but and it's limited to five items. Older LG phones allowed you to program one-touch buttons (usualy the 4-way arrow keys) but this phone has no one-touch buttons you can customize. Everything's done through the carousel which isn't any easier than finding stuff in menus so I'm not sure what the point is. from Amazon.com I had an LG Muziq cellphone for several years and was pleased with the quality. Went to Sprint store several weeks ago to upgrade and the salesman showed me the Lotus. from Amazon.com I have had 2 lotuses go bad on me in under 6 months. The phone works great at first but eventually the screen will start distorting until it is unusable. from Amazon.com I brought that one back the same day I bought the service. the next was the Samsung upstage, which I thought was cool at the time. so heres a few things about the upstage and what the lotus fixed on it. 1) the constant fliping on the two sided upstage. from Amazon.com
