LG KS360 - Any good?

andygb

My nearest and dearest wants a new mobile, and we are both on the Virgin PAYG (because it is the cheapest for us, please do not try to tell me that a contract is cheaper, because we spend around £30 a year!).
Anyway, she quite likes the LGKS360 and a Samsung (Similar model).
So, does anyone know if this is good value, because we can get it for £49.99.

Thanks,

Andy

I currently have this phone and I love it. The QWERTY keyboard is brilliant and so easy to use. It is a great phone for a texter as it brings up previous texts like a conversation so you can see what you have replied. The battery life is great - I charge it up once a week, although it does drain quicker if you make lots of phone calls.
The camera is good, though not the best, but I have a digital camera if the photo really matters. I've had a Samsung phone previously and really not liked them. This is my third LG. It's a brilliant little phone if you want a phone to talk and text. I've often been asked if it's one of those new smart phones!

Don't know the phone, but the lg is £29.99 from Dialaphone. You will have to buy a £10 top up at the same time, mind. You can get £6.50 back if you go though topcashback, too.

Thanks for that info, it is supposed to have a touch screen, does this mean that you do not have to key in the number details every time? I know it must seem like a silly question, but I only ask, because I have a very old Nokia (I make very few calls, and hardly ever text), and we both wear reading glasses, so some screens/buttons are very small.

There's a little button on the front of the phone which when you press it brings a number pad up on the screen. This allows you to touch-press the number to dial. TBH I usually go into my contacts and press the green phone button to make a call. The touch screen is only for dialling numbers. I usually use the keyboard anyway!
