I'm really tempted to get this phone but after buying the sony ericsson c905 and was let down by the quality I wanted to check with people who have actually used the phone.
I know one person on here who has one but there must be other people, I just wondered is you could post like a mini-review of the performance/build quality etc. I'm particularly interested in the wi-fi/web browser.
Thanks for any info you can give me on this phone

those pictures look really good, I think i'm set as far as the camera is concerned.
Are video's easy to watch online? or possible at all? (on sites other than youtube)
Does the phone feel solid?

Feels solid enough for me. I was surprised how light it was, which I guess might make you think that it isn't solid, but I'm pretty sure that it is.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2002 Location: Glasgow, Scotland | | | The Renoir has a great cam and vid cam. Not many comments on the browser/wifi. LG normally do have a good'un though. You're stuck with youtube mobile for it.
Quality seems to be hit and miss, however. I prefer the C905 but there has been, yet again, QC problems which is a bummer... The LG also has a noticable returns rate... |

There's a few things I didn't like about the c905, The sliding bit felt like it was going to break and wobbled a bit, when on the internet I found it hard to scroll using the keypad, Say if you are trying to find a place on a long page, you had to hold down the button for a few seconds, then it would move so fast you didn't know where you were, then when you stopped you had to hold down to button again, and again  I doubt this would anoy other people, It was just irritating for me as I used the browser a lot.
The camera was superb on the c905, I know the LG's flash doesn't do quite as well as the c905 but I'm sure it will be better than my SE k550i's LED flash.
