I previously had the Palm Centro and it broke on me. My contract isn't up, but I needed a phone that I could depend on. My husband suggested I get a good GoPhone. I went to Best Buy and purchased the LG Neon GT365 for $100. At first it was nice, but I've started having problems after only a week. Apparently I text too fast causing it to freeze on me. I would have figured it'd be a good texting phone, but I guess not. Also, I can't hear the phone ring when I am calling someone, even when I am in a flat area with full signal. Sometimes it even mutes the line the first 15 seconds or so. The problems are VERY annoying and frustrating, especially when I'm trying to call my husband (he's in the army and currently out-of-state) or my mom (lives almost 1000 miles away). I'm very disappointed that there are problems with the phone already, and I will go back to Best Buy if they become worse. Everything else works fine, but I really don't think it's worth the price. I realize it is $80 through amazon at the moment, but that's not available in my area.

I love this phone. I had a samsung black jack and couldn't get the most out of that phone for many reasons. The LG Neon GT365 cell phone was easier to text from because it had a larger keyboard surface. There haven't been any accidental redials due to inadvertently pressing a key. The keyboard is hidden under the cover. The faceplate slides to the side to reveal the keyboard.
The only negative that I have to report is with Amazon, not the actual phone. Unfortunately, once you buy 1 phone, you are not allowed to buy anymore. I spent 45 minutes with various Amazon customer support personnel trying to be able to purchase a second phone as a Christmas gift for someone. The Amazon customer service staff (four different people)could not override a software issue that wouldn't allow another phone to be purchased a few weeks after the first purchase. They even transferred me to their wireless site. Same problem. Alas, I was forced to buy it at Walmart. It's a great deal but it's not really widely available for purchase. I referred a friend to the site in order to purchase the phone as gifts and he was able to purchase 2. It's unclear why I was not allowed to purchase 2, but he was.

THIS PHONE LOOKS GOOD, BUT IT HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN. IT WILL TURN ITSELF OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF LISTENING TO MUSIC. ALSO, SOMETIMES TAKE A LONG TIME TO TURN ON. NOT HAPPY AT ALL.

At first glance, this phone isn't bad at all. The slide-out keyboard works nicely. The microSD card slot is useful. The touch screen, while limited, certainly adds a degree of usability. It's a proprietary connector for power, which is a let down, but that's not even my biggest complaint.
The biggest qualm I have with the phone is that half of the time, I cannot hear anyone on a phone call for a good thirty seconds. That means I have to consistently yell "hello hello hello" so people don't hang up thinking I pocket dialed them. Also, there is an occasional lag in input. This is troublesome if you are in a touch-tone menu and need to enter a number to get somewhere.
While I initially thought this phone was a much better device than my $30 baseline Nokia go phone, it has such a glaring shortcoming that quite limits its primary use--being a phone.

When I first got this phone I was in love . It has great graphics , music qualty , nd a full keyboard with a touch screen keypad, BUT!!! what they dont tell you is after 100 text msgs the phone freezes like crazy , the phone has dialing out issues and people have trouble hearing you and calls take forever to connect . So I'm going to return my phone today.
