Anyone got one?

Went to buy one for my daughter today and the helpful chappie in the Carphone Warehouse said that they had problems with the 'Heat Sensitive' keypad ...... not a Technical problem - just one where people cannot get on with the pad.

Even to the point of - when talking on the phone, the heat from your cheek somtimes cancels the call or accesses some other function.

I'm sure there must be people here who have one - what do you reckon?

Dracoro

why the chocolate phone? did your daughter request that one or are there others you could get?

I've had one since December last year, and have had no problems like that. The one thing that does bother me is the screen wipe (phone charm) you get with it - it only cleans the screen properly for the first week or so. After that, it's greasy (from wiping fingers marks etc) from the screen. I work for Orange and we had LG in doing a roadshow for the staff a couple of weeks ago and I asked about getting a replacement, but they don't do them!


Hope this helps a bit

My wife has the Samsung E500 thingy with the heat sensitive keypad......whenever I use it all I do is hover my finger over one of the cancel pads and I'm left with a blank screen

The girls at work are talking about a silver LG phone at the moment !!

The LG Shine.

Daughter has one and it is very good.

LG shine is apparently an excellent phone ..... it is £200 on PAYG.

Daughter liked the LG Chocolate ..... was going to get it for her until the salesman said that the heat sensitive keys are not to everyones taste.

I got my missus the LG Chocolate, very good phone imo, no issues with heat sensitivatey and she can power a small town with the energy she emits

i got mine for xmas and it's UTTER ****E!

the pad is sometimes too sensitive, then not sensitive enough - you cant set your own message tones, the memory sucks ***


IMO our lasses Samsung D900 is WAY better, and if you still need touch screen then get the E900

So,some phones are men's phones and some phones are for laydees

pslewis

Maybe Men have hotter fingers? Certainly I have

Dracoro

how old is your daughter, will she give the phone grief or look after it. some phones are better than others with regards to the daily tumble etc....

She's getting on now ...... but still wants Birthday Presents and suchlike!

Men have colder fingers, as a rule. That's why - apparently - female sushi chefs are very rare.

My lodger got a Chocolate and doesn't get on with the heat sensitive bits at all... activates them by accident regularly.

Well, got a Sony Ericsson W850i today ...... well, got it free on contract actually

Came with £100 Credit, Sony Speakers, BlueTooth Headset, Car Charger, Unlimited Texts and 600 minutes free ...... for £35 a month - as she was spending £40 a month on her old Motorola PAYG it seems a sensible way to go! Most of the free stuff was thrown in when we asked for her PAC so we could go to VodaFone

No-one liked the LG Chocolate .................
