Why you shouldn't buy an LG Chocolate...

What you are looking at are photos of my brothers LG Chocolate. He purchased this phone less than 2 months ago, even though I tried to talk him into buying a RAZR or KRZR. He accidentally dropped it once, it was fine. After this, regular use of the phone ended up breaking it. This is what the phone looked like yesterday after retrieving it from his locker at school.

He bought the phone when the store wasn't having a spectacular deal. $192 for the phone, $400 for the deposit. He thankfully got the insurance with the phone, but to get a new one he has to shell out another $50 just to get another LG Chocolate. Long story short, don't get expensive slider phones, they suck.

yeah a friend of mine advised me not to get a sliding faced phone because they break easily. I wanted one of those for a while. Thak God I decided on a flip phone.

After his phone first started acting loose I was basically telling him "I told you so.", and he would say "I know, but do I ever listen to you?"

He regrets it and wants to get a RAZR now. laughing out loud Too bad they won't let him downgrade to one without him needing to buy the phone brand new.

Seems to be the consensus.

Chocolates are crappy phones.

The RAZR's supposed to be pretty crappy, too, actually.

the newer razrs have gotten decent reviews. the new krazr has the most horrible reviews.

My phone is severely outdated and sometimes when I turn it on, it only shows a white screen, which means it is probably dying. laughing out loud

Schecter

Thats typical of Nextel phones though. erm

=Tired Hiker=
This is my phone. It's my work phone. It's the only phone I need. If I break it, they get me a new one. If I lose it, they replace it. I don't pay a dime for the damn thing. I love my phone.
