I got this mobile as a replacement for my old Samsung tocco lite that fell into a cup of tea a few months back.
To be honest I didn't do any research on it, but I've been more than surprised by it, if you've got under 80 quid and are looking for a decent touch screen make sure you consider this one!
Chloe, dont be fooled by the look of the LG phone I promise you it will start to fail on you sooner or later probably more sooner than later though. Ive never had an lg that wasnt haunted by software faults id personally stay away from them.
