I got the LG G230 for free at the Sun Shop – Park Square branch. I’ve been satisfied with Sun Cellular so it was not a difficult decision to renew my account for another 2 years. Though, Sun Cellular will still need to expand their network as signal is still bad on some areas, I’m hopeful that they can really compete with giant companies, Globe and Smart.
This is my 1st ever LG phone! I can say that I’m impressed! I have an iPhone which does everything for me so I got this phone as backup. I don’t plan to have sun as my main phone as signal is not strong in certain areas. I’m still torn though if I’m going to stay with Globe or move to Smart already but I’m leaning towards moving to Smart.
The phone looks so nice! And I just realized that this is also my 1st ever slider phone!!! LG people designed this phone so perfectly, I believe the features of the phone works really well with how it was designed.
Included in the box are:
- Phone Unit
- Charger
- Headset
- Installation CD
- USB cable
- Manual
Best loved feature of LG GB230? Wireless FM!!! I don’t know if you noticed, but w/ other mobile phones, you have to connect the headset to get a signal. With LG GB230, its wireless antenna is built-in! You don’t need your headset to listen to FM radio. You can even just use the phone’s speakers to listen to it!
The speaker’s ubercool! It is powerful, loud, sounds are clear and in good quality. I definitely love this phone! If you’re looking for a basic phone and you don’t need 3G, then this is your phone.
I highly recommend it! 🙂 Happy user here!
