E72 Tour Karma Exclaim LX370 Sony Ericsson Comments 10

The other feature phone on hand from Sprint was the freshly minted LG LX370. As far as the LX370 goes, it's another home run from LG. It feels great in the hand, has a reasonably attractive profile and slips into your pocket easily.

LG LX370

The LX370 had very good build quality. The plastics and materials were top notch. I felt as though a lot of care and attention had gone into its manufacture. The slider mechanism worked flawlessly and felt very solid.

The navigation cluster on the front had a good layout and feel to it. All the controls were easy to reach and had good travel and feedback.

The numeric keypad also felt good. The keys are spaced nicely and there's plenty of room to dial numbers of tap out messages without feeling cramped.

The LG LX370 also runs Sprint's OneClick user interface, and should be a good selling feature phone for the nation's third-largest carrier.
