i got this phone 4 my 15th birthday and i just wanna highlight the good and bad things about this phone, i have it in blue:
good points: qwerty keypad is fab, camera is pretty neat, touch screen dialling, apps are cool, it looks good, and is real cheap comapred 2 other phones which arent that great
bad points: internal memory is not good (but a microsd card shud help) touch screen is only 4 dialling, and i wanted the pink 1 but the blue 1 was cheaper which i dont really understand but i suppose the colour was xclusive.
i recommend this phone 2 heavy texters, social butterflys and ppl who just want a good phone 4 a good price.
i love it!!!

This phone is one of the best mobiles I have ever seen! it is excellent. Nothing is wrong with it apart from the camera is only 2 mega pixel, but it is a cheap phone! Everything else on it is brilliant. I just got this phone and my friend has had this mobile since it came out and she has dropped it loads and it still hasnt broke! but you have to download Opera Mini on the web browser because it is quiet slow until you download it. Hope this helps abit for you guys who want this mobile. I would recommend it. Also it is ament to come avaluble in australia in other colours in about a month or so. So hang on and wait for the colour you want. Bye :)

This phone works well. I boughtthe blue one from Orange for £80 and have had it unlocked so I can use my other sim with it when I run out of texts.
As JJ has said, the browser is really rubbish and for some reason limits the amount of characters you can use to reply to messages. This is annoying, especially on facebook. I can't get operamini to work on it though, or fring for that matter.
Also, I can't get the text message updates I get sent from Orange. All other messages come through fine.
Apart from that, its a good little phone. I love they keypad, its so easy to write messages on there. I just wish the addional characters like )( : were not kept in such an awkward place!
I notice the review says it has an Fm radio, I seem to have missed this as I have never noticed a radio.

this phone is the best, it really has it all. i have used my friend's one and now i want one. my friend didnt even have to advertise it. it was like love at first sight! i looked at it and thought wow! but then i gave it a second thought... and i thought theres got to be something wrong so i slided it up and...BAM! it has a qwerty board. the number of times i tried texting my friends but i cant be fast because i i have to wait to use the same button again beacause it has the letter i need. but on a keyboard theres no waiting. its just like having you're own portable laptop. i dont know what this tells you but. i cant take it any longer.. i want that phone.. and i know i wont regret because i used my friend's one for quite a long time. not only that it is evidently ideal for kids. im 14 but i wanted an i phone my mum said i couldnt have one so when she heard about the LG KS360 she agreed without a second thought to buy it as my christmas present.
