Forums Forums Wanted - Items Wanted: LG Viewty

As title.

Either unlocked or locked to 02 network

you only want one cos i have one now

these fones are gay, its not for you is it?

i strongly advise against buying one for yourself but i`ll pm you with a price nobody can match tomorrow AND they are brand new unlocked to any network.

I'm happy with mine.
I wish they'd patch the software though.
The music player is a bit crap.
But for photos/video its great.

Yeah, tis for me mate. Old phone is nackered.

Why do you strongly advise not to buy one?
I'll wait for your PM

Lad in work has one, an I quite like them.

Cheers MissG - whys the music player crap?

The music player is very slow.
The software you get to stick your music on takes ages loading files onto the phone. You can make playlists though.
I don't think I have really sussed it out properly. I don't really use it for that anyway.
Its good for internet if you plan to use it for that. Screen is a good size. Has HSDPA capability (like broadband for mobiles) where it is available.

I had a K800i before this and didn't want to leave sony ericsson behind. I considered the K850i but didn't like the look or feel of it. So this was my next choice because of the camera.

You might want to look at this too:

can you get wiki up on it? lol

what files have you been trying to play? mp3? wma?

Lmao you sitched the K800i camera for a Viewty camera??

It has one of the worst camera's of the "5 megapixel era". A K800i wipes the floor with the Viewty for quality (having said that though, it beats the N95, and even the K850i in some aspects too). The reviews for it were awful (im talking about the independent reviews, not the manufacturer-paid-for CNET/ZDNET reviews).

havent actually tried that yet

might as well try seems as I have unlimited free wap access

2 of my mates have had them and they have both broken, ideal girls phone Ie: would be looked after by a lady

Don't say that, when they were first announced, I was interested in getting one

Fortunatly, when I red the reviews of the camera, I decided to get another K800i lol. Other than call's, text, using it as a modem and Opera Mobile, the camera is all I use my phone for lol.

I like my viewty but I think I'll be going back to sony ericsson when my contract expires. And that's only because i liked a lot of features of k800i. If they hadn't made the 850i so plasticy and the buttons naff, I would have got one.

You know what, that is totally spot on about the 850i, I am glad someone agree's with me about how cheap, tacky and plasticy the 850i looks. Put it alongside the K800i or even the K810i and you would think it is a budget PAYG phone compare to them. It also has a major flaw on the camera, they had no lens protector, even though they need to put a matrix protector behind the plastic lens due to it not having a len cover, and it gets scratched easily.

And SE wonder why they are making losses, thier last range of phones was so cheap and crap!!

They have made up for it with the new range and got back to where they should be (C902, C905, X1, K770i etc, all look mint imho), but it's no wonder the K800i was outselling the K850i like 6 - 1, tis just a shame, because its now become a victom of it's own success (Sony have pulled it the morons, they are sick of it taking the limelight away from new phones lol - it was like a Modern day 5110 or 3310, a phone that would have sold well for years and years lol).

i love my k800i, it has had a pretty good beating and has never let me down

Me too, and the missus, and Pomp lol we should start a fan club like the Fuji club!!
