| dallascorey's Full Review: LG LX5350 |
As with anything good that comes with my life, Sprint's LG5350 did not get into my hands with the greatest of ease. In the end, it was well worth the post-purchase satisfaction & enjoyment that I have received from this particular phone. The technology that was put into this phone astounded me since my last cell-phone purchase was over a year and a half ago.
My first & most important concern was of course function ability of this phone, compared to the others, under continuous use in my own city, on the Texas highways, & anywhere else in the U.S. That concern was satisfied by first phoning a friend of mine to look up customer reviews online, while I awaited acknowledgement from any member of Sprint PCS store staff. As my friend read positive review after review to me over the phone, I held the LG5350 phone in my hand, and tested it out for personal impression of quality & comfort. By the time one of the Sprint PCS sales associates finally approached me, I was already sold on buying this phone, thanks to the customer review information that my friend relayed earlier. Actually, maybe Sprint needs to cough up a commission check for my friend, followed by re-training their store staff on the proper way to treat all customers; from the time they enter the store until the time they leave. But, since the general imbalances of human society are becoming even more out of balance, I just took a deep breath and chalked it up to another typical day of my life.
So, what did my friend say about the phone that made my purchase decision? Here is what I personally experienced from using this phone. My friend certainly supplied me with great information about the phone. But, it didnÕt hold a candle to personal use and repeated positive experiences. First off, the menu is very user-friendly & a piece of cake to maneuver through. Next, the function ability that I have experienced from this phone is actually better than the positive reviews that my friend found online. Third, tons of new options & aesthetic extras have been added to this phone. It definitely gives more variety that we all love, given our own personal preferences & unique, individual styles. Another feature is the overall design of the LG5350. ItÕs very compact, sleek, & also attractive with a silver & blue shell casing. If all of this were not enough, the gadgets, games, and sound quality were simply amazing. I never would have thought that I would be able to play arcade version of dozens of video games, and even more amazing was playing a game called ÒMonkeyball,Ó put out by the ÒGamecubeÓ video console.
My only complaints about this phone are due to my own personal preferences. I first found the size of the screen to be very small, compared to other cell phones I had seen and used. However, given the compactness that the phone offers, it was not that big of an issue, especially with the high resolution and color quality that this cell has. Second, I did not find that there were enough 'normal' ring tones to choose from. In a way, I wish someone would spend more time coming up with more ÔappropriateÕ ring tones to choose from. This, of course is my personal issue with cell phones in general. But, I have yet to experience a public situation where a cell phone reverberates the theme to ÒHawaii 5-0,Ó for example, and at least one other person in the vicinity, besides myself, doesnÕtÕ have a look of confusion & utter disbelief, all in the same look. It just isnÕt right people! Sound tastes aside though, I will say that the sound quality and number of synonymous tones that make up each ringÕs theme, has improved 10-fold. Hats off to everyone involved in making this phone and maintaining the great service that I receive from it.
