Was my handset until I upgraded (downgraded?) to Nokia 2112.
<u>The bad news first</u>
Not sturdy enough. A single drop and you have problems cropping up.
Problems range from heated set, dancing signal bars (hence dropped calls) and single scratch renders its pretty look useless
<u>On a positive note</u>
I have used 3 LGRD2130 till now, because it was the best CDMA set for the price-range available till now and also I move from a state to state often and have difficulty getting rid of old sets.
Also note that the price of every other set has dropped except for this, because it is a good set.
Featurewise: The usual polyphonic ringtones, nice screens(fonts)
Would like to have number save feature, especially when someone texts you some numbers
Keys (especially the END) key tends to wear out soon
No privacy. Everyone else can hear the sound from the headset
Charger Symbol shows ''Charging'' all the time, but the Charger Green lamp shows the status correctly
Really bad battery life in poor signal area
USB cable for RConnect tends to develop problems very soon, so go for Serial cable
In short LG phones have that ''Fridgey-Microwavey'' feel unlike Nokia, or Motorola and you are never proud of owning it. Good set, but not long lasting
