As they are both from Korea yes they have similar things. But using this LG its quite different and better and easier than some Samsung phones. No phone is perfect. I was testing camera in dark last night the led flash is so bright works well. The browser using edge is faster than my old Nokia and was happy when google mail application and opera browser worked. There are some things i hate but more pros than cons. Never thought myself using touch sensitive buttons but this one is wonderfully easy and brisk |

What are the downsides? I too have a W910i and want a change. I've only had SE phones so not sure what to go for next. I'm thinking about the W960i. |

Downsides are not much. When texting and changing between t9 and normal input its slightly fiddly but nothing major. I said previously that message alert was not loud it is i just missed the message alert volume. Lol. Camera is slow in low light otherwise its all pros. Really not much i can say thats bad about this phone. |

I forgot to mention the camera when taking macro pictures automatically goes into macro when taking a close up. You dont have to go into camera menu when you take close ups which is a nice handy touch. Pictures are so bright and sharp on pc. |

LG must have improved considerably recently, I tried a shine and took it back it was truly awful couldn't get on with the UI. Their recent releases do look good, but I'd have to have a good play before I took the plunge. |

Yes i heard about the Shine phone it had bad software. From what i can see everything has been improved in their phones they must have listened to complaints from people. They must have improved their software too cos its very stable this phone. |

Not only is the menus and software far better than previous phones its sexier than the Shine. In fact this phone is so sexy ya cant put it down cant resist holding it. When its closed it looks amazing. |

I so wish i could post some pics. I am fussy about picture quality and i notice bad things in a picture so when i say the pics are good then thats it they are. In daylight they are bright clear crisp sharp with great colour. It has an image stabilizer but indoors you still gotta keep a steady hand. Camera is pretty speedy only sometimes takes few seconds but not much shutter lag at all. I would say its sharper than say the K800i when pictures are taken outside or definately on a par with it. Video is QVGA. |

Oh my god people my LG phone died on me. I went back into store and they said we can only exchange for same phone as i already had swap. I refused and in the end after i spoke with the manager they backed down. I swapped back to my old faithful Nokia. I got 6500 Classic which is very nice. The LG kept freezing when using camera and switching off during internet shame as it was such a lovely great phone. Though see what you can achieve in shops when you dont back down. Im happy. |
