A glossary of terms:

Pros: Very small and easy to hold while talking, includes belt holster, nice charger
Cons: Battery life, Phone book difficult to quickly navigate

I had Sprint PCS and an older Qualcomm phone which was feeling bigger and heavier as others around me got smaller phones. My wife has Verizon because of where she works (no Sprint coverage) and we realized we could pay less for more minutes if we shared...

Pros: Compact, incredibly feature-filled, great sound . . . toss the land line phone!!
Cons: Non-alphabetized phonebook, BUT this phone has voice activated dialing! Manual could be better.

Improve your life . . . walk into Verizon Wireless and get a LG-TM510 for $150 (and a two year service contract). If you are an existing customer, ask for consideration of being a long-term customer and ask for a $99 price. If the rep doesn't give it to...

Pros: Small size, solid build, voice dialing, external display
Cons: Lacks dedicated mail button, some features are buried,

We picked up 2 Verizon enabled 510's to replace our Sprint service Startac and Samsung 3500. The phone is smaller than the Startac in every dimension except thickness and much smaller than the 3500. One thing that struck us was the solid feeling of...

Pros: Compact, easy of use, sharp looks, durable
Cons: Battery life, thick size

I came across Verizon's LG510 while looking to switch prepay plan as I was unsatisfied with AT&T's change in its prepay plan. Having shopped around at various plans, I basically chose Verizon as it currently has the best prepay plan out there. But...

Pros: Flip-phone style, ease of use
Cons: Battery life with the included battery

Okay, I admit it -- our needs in a cell phone are way more basic than most. We bought 2 TM510s as part of a Verizon family plan. We needed phones to call each other, in place of pay phones, and occasionally to have someone we really wanted to reach us....

Pros: LCD on the front and Voice Command
Cons: Pain in the Tush to type in names

After analyzing various cellular companies (Verizon, AT&T, Voicesteam, etc...) I ended up going with Verizon because AT&T wanted a $200 deposit. However, regardless of the service I selected the LG 510 for a few reasons. One I already ruled out Audiovox...

Pros: Features, Reliability, Value, Track Record
Cons: Battery Life

I should begin by mentioning that I am an accounts representative for Verizon Wireless and have been with the company for almost six years. I feel that this gives me a qualified position to comment on the track records of various phones that we...

Pros: extremely compact; Web-enabled; can set rings; voice activated; durable; standard jacks
Cons: not Bluetooth compatible; can't download rings; awkward to look up numbers by name

I bought this phone about a year ago when I moved. The two main things I wanted were compactness and long battery life.

At first, I was leery of buying the phone because I wasn't familiar with the LG name (although I would have recognized...

Pros: Size, features, clarity.
Cons: Headset jack, inputting phone numbers, 'goodbye' message when shutting off phone.

I purchased my first LG 510 about a year and a half ago, and have been getting service through Veriz ...

Pros: Indiglo backlight display, 2 screens, size, memory, voice recognition
Cons: phonebook (can get used to it), alarm must be set with 24hour clock

The LG510 is by far the best phone that I have experienced. I have had everything from Nokia, Samsung, and Motorola but nothing compares to this phone. Initially, I was hesitant with a LG/Goldstar phone, not knowing much about the company but overall I...

Pros: Light, small, very sturdy, decent voice-dial, good reception.
Cons: Poor manual, phone book does not alphabetize, OEM battery life a bit short.

This phone is extremely sturdy. I have dropped it about half a dozen times (in a leather case) and not even a scratch. It is light, small, reliable and has very good reception (often almost as good as a land line). The volume is fine at the highest...

Pros: Speech clarity. Great display. Excellent backlight. Voice dialing. Connectivity
Cons: Very small when closed. The phonebook is a little clumsy. T9 confuses me.

I bought this as an upgrade phone for my Verizon service... finally getting rid of the Nokia 5185 that came free. The Nokia has some nice features (the phonebook) but was really not a very good phone. This TM510 is amazing: 1-bar on the signal strength...

Pros: Small size
Cons: difficult to access names/numbers, heavy weight for its size, only 1 "real" ring tone

I purchased this LG TM 510 because it was one of the 2 "small" phones that Verizon currently has to offer. The price for the other small phone offered (Motorola v60)was over $400. I chose to spend about $160 for the LG.

It is very time...

Pros: It was small
Cons: It broke several times!

I have had my phone for 15 months then one of the hinges broke. The store didn't have a replacement faceplate since it was a "retired" phone. They said I could check back and see if they got the part in! Like I have the time to check! I am a full time ...
