What customers say about LG 620G Prepaid Phone (Net10)?
a decent pre-paid phone, but there are better choices, updated 10/11,
After an atrocious experience with T-mobile I moved my family onto several pre-paid phones from different providers so that we would have time to decide exactly what we wanted before signing another contract. I have to say that after 3 months on pre-paid service, we are unlikely to go back to a contract.
I picked up the LG620G after reading several good reviews. It does have some nice features: compatible with micro SD cards (only 2g), an mp3 player and radio (the radio requires external antenna), a decent size screen and a few aps installed, also usable as a data phone. It’s a clam shell design, so it is small and easy to carry and the screen is protected.
Net10′s plans are pretty reasonable: 10 cents/ minute or Net10 has a $25/ month plan which includes data and text.
The bad:
It is a somewhat cheesy looking plastic phone; not the worst, but not the best either.
Many of the features are clunkly to use. The first time I tried browsing with it I was told I had to log into my phone. I still have not figured out how to read email on an external website with it. The data usability was so bad that I stopped using it after and hour or so of playing around to see what it could do).
It has a usb connection but does not come with a cable (or car charger). The cable can be purchased separately, but I have not yet found a car charger for it.
To use the mp3 player you need to move the music onto your micro sd card using an adapter (also not supplied). Using the card is also awkward, as it sits under the battery inside the phone, not in an external slot.
Regards the service: I read a review of net10 which said that service is great, unless you put “customer” inf front of it. The folks I have spoken with at customer service are nice, but not very capable. Some have good command of English and some, not so. Their customer service is in the Dominican Republic). I have not been able to buy minutes online, over the phone (either cell or land). There’s a problem with whoever processes their credit cards, such that I was told it was denied, when the card companies said it was not. I now have hundred of $ “pending” hanging in suspension, and ultimately had to go out and buy a physical card to use the phone. My reception, clarity… is better than T-mobile, but not as good as either what my son gets on his At & T LG Prime Prepaid GoPhone (AT&T) with $50 Airtime Credit or what my daughter gets with Virgin Mobile.
Ultimately I wish I had gotten myself an LG prime. The screen is larger, and it is a touchscreen. it has an external memory card slot and takes up to 16g cards. It has better reception, getting signals where I can’t. At&T customer service is much easier to deal with. Most significantly, it cost half as much (or less on one I bought black Friday week). At& T has a plan which is *identical* to net 10s, a straight 10 cents/ minute. Their flat rate is now $2/ day unlimited (which is on the high end).
I would recommend this phone only if you are already on net10, have credit you do not want to lose, and are otherwise happy with their service. The 10 cent /minute plan is great for those of us who do not use a cell much (for others I would recommend Virgin mobile).
I am staying with net10 for the time being because I paid $40 for this phone (which is too much for 2 months worth of use. However, I wish I had bought the LG prime instead and if we stay with pre-paid, I likely will ultimately pick one of those up.
******************************************************************************
I am revisiting my review having purchased yet another cell phone :p (gee I have a lot of phones; one could even say *too many*). While the LG 620g performed OK, the service at net10 was pretty awful. I could seldom actually use the phone. sometimes having to stand in the middle of the street to get a signal… and sometimes not being able to get one no matter what I did!
Beyond that, the price of the LG touch has increased so much I would no longer recommend it (i paid $10-20 for it taking into account the credit AT&T provided. They have since raised the price and reduced the credit to where it has become a pretty expensive phone, and… there are better choices for the money). I recently got a palm pixi plus Palm Pixi Plus Verizon Cell Phone ~ No Contract a pretty basic smart phone (i.e. it is not an android, BUT has *a lot* of features for this price range. It actually cost less than the LG620g (I paid $36 from a marketplace seller), activated on pageplus cellular on advice from several reviewers. and oh my what a change…

|Good deal,
I’ve read many reviews of this phone, and I used to sell cell phones for a couple of years…so this may (or may not be) considered a well-informed review:
Good:
Clean and stylish looking
Automatic key lock when you close the slider
Largish display
Decent camera
Has a video recorder
Slider is strong, not cheap feeling
Large keypad
The Not-So-Good:
Navigation isn’t the best
Changing ringstyles sort of awkward
Call volume control isn’t on the side of the phone (can be adjusted using “joy stick” while on a call, however)
Caller groups automatically added to your contact list (not a big deal, I just deleted them…I see little value to caller group id’s)
I don’t use my cell phone for web services or games, so I don’t have an opinion regarding this phone. If you are nit-picky about being able to change features on your phone and customize them, you may not want this phone…the fact I gave it four stars only means it’s four stars as far as it meets my expectations.
As noted on other reviews: if you want to use the fm radio and mp3 capabilities of the phone…you should find a different phone…you will be disappointed as you’ll need to purchase a special headphone to use the radio, and you can’t store much music-wise.
I consider my tech abilities above average, but my cell usage is generally pretty basic.
What I really like about it:
Great looking phone…no one sees it and thinks “hey, he’s using a prepaid phone”! Not too small, not too big, and light. I really enjoy the slider feature and that it automatically locks the external buttons once the slider closes. I like the display size, camera, and video recorder. Call quality is good, too.
I’m not basing this review on Net10, however, I’ve found it to be good service…same as Tracfone’s service (obviously, owned by Tracfone), which is what I switched from. Activating and porting your number is simple. Everything is self-service, and intuitive, so I’m glad I have little need for talking to customer service.

|Net10 is great!,
I very much love this phone, more for the fact that it is on NEt10 rather than the phone itself. The phone works great, got a camera and a multimedia player and all that, very sturdy and reliable. The service is outstanding however. I did a little research and learned that it’s because Net10 uses the Verizon and ATT towers to broadcast its service, which means it is truly nationwide. Also, it’s darn cheap at 50 a month for unlimtied and 25 a month for 1000 minutes. Woo!
