His screen started to have lines go through it as soon as the warranty expired. Our batteries quit charging after 5 months. This phone was built cheap. The phone has these two little covers on the inside of the phone that have been literally glued on. It covers two screw but is held together by glue. <br />We will also never buy LG appliances or anything LG ever again. This quality is the lowest of all the phones we have ever had. <br />The phone has weird error messages when texting and sometimes refuses to let you text more than two lines and then freezes. You have to start all over. The Verizon service folks even admitted to this phones be built poorly. They have had people turn it in after on a few months. This phone is no longer functional after two years. I can not make an outgoing call OR receive it. We have a contract with Verizon and they refused to let us upgrade. We are finally going to get new phones on May 17 2005.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=19 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=6335#review6335 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=6335#review6335 Wed, 27 Oct 2004 18:06:29 GMT <p><i>VE1WAB submitted this review of the LG VX-1 / TM-520:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I had used this phone for roughly 2 years before upgrading to the 4600. The TM-520 is a very durable phone. I have had only one problem with mine where the display would go dead occasionally. Luckily the phone was under warranty and was repaired. The speaker was not that great but for the abuse i have put this phone through it was worth the money. Battery life is great and reception is very good.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=19 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=5539#review5539 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=5539#review5539 Thu, 09 Sep 2004 23:52:03 GMT <p><i>Mykee submitted this review of the LG VX-1 / TM-520:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I bought this phone in Sept 02, and after about a year and 4 months everything went to the crapper. The display cracked, the battery started losing its lifespan and whenever i'd push a button to start off, i'd have to press it again.<br /><br />My battery is so bad now, that after about 5 mins of being off the charger its dead.<br /><br />PROs - First ever flip phone, so I was excited about that. Did work fine for about a year, but with Telus (Canada) they only do 3yr contracts, so that left me SOL once my Warranty ran out.<br /><br />CONs - Cheap cheap display. CRAPPY BATTERY!!!<br /><br />H8 this fone</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=19 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=2167#review2167 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=2167#review2167 Tue, 12 Aug 2003 19:02:55 GMT <p><i>Dakota01 submitted this review of the LG VX-1 / TM-520:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I bought this phone to replace my Motorola 120T. Being a long time Moto fan, I was hesitant about buying another brand, but I really wanted a flip, but I did not like the V60. This phone is pretty sturdy on flip, I do not feel like I am going to break it, the voice dial is great! Predictive text works well, I type messages faster than any of my friends. Ring volume is OK, but u can only download 5 ring tones, and after that u have to start erasing them. That I do not like. Back light is nice and bright, I never have a problem with reception, and the manner mode is really cool as well. I have not had a problem with this phone yet, and it has been thru alot since I bought it in December. I would recommend this phone to anyone who wants a flip phone without all the hassle of the new technology.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=19 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=141#review141 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=19&r=141#review141 Sat, 01 Jun 2002 00:20:41 GMT <p><i>ensell submitted this review of the LG VX-1 / TM-520:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Steps forward from TM-510:<br />- Smaller and lighter.<br />- Huge screen.<br />- Huge clock.<br />- Rich range of sound.<br />- Better navigation than TM-510.<br /><br />Steps back:<br />- Not available in black.<br />- Ring tones are soft.<br />- Finally, 4-way navigation.<br />- Still not intuitive UI.<br />- Manual stinks.<br /><br />Steps way back (BLEH):<br />- No voice dialing!<br />- Still can't personalize many features (would like to set T9 as default, but can't)<br />- Why are games only accessible through PIM menu???</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=19
