"Excellent Phone" on by adv3rsary
Pros: MP3 Player, Picture and Video Camera, Tons of Memory, Slick Design...
Cons: Can't set MP3s as Ringtones, No Speakerphone, No Bluetooth, Poor Software
Summary: Overall, this is one of the coolest gadgets i have ever owned despite all its little problems, The MP3 player is great and with the 512MB T-Flash memory card Rogers Wireless includes with it, it's even better, the camera has excellent quality, and the design is simply perfect. Unlike most other phones, software, USB, Memory Card and Memory Adapter (T-Flash to SD) come included with it which saves you some money. The signal is excellent and the battery life is great. The only real problem i have with this phone is that you cant set MP3s as Ringtones which forces you to pay ridiculous prices for ringtones from the carrier.
Overall, I highly recommend this product to anyone interested in a slick music phone with tons of great features. -
"The worst phone I've ever owned." on by onikboof
Pros: None that I know of.
Cons: Battery life is horrible. Constantly locks up even when just scrolling through phone number list. I have to take the battery out and then put it back in to reset the phone. Drops calls repeatedly. Very slow and hangs on every application.
Summary: Don't go there.

"Wonderful basic phone with a great MP3 player" on by joe196798
Pros: One reviewer made the mistatement that the phone that the phone has to be open to use the MP3 player. Not true. I am very impressed with the quaility of the sound and volume the tiny speakers. Not a bad camera either.
Cons: No speaker phone feature and this doesn't make sense to me as it has these geat external speakers.
Summary: I like this phone very much. I have dropped it repeatedly as I carry it in my shirt pocket and it has hit the pavement several times with no appearant damage and has even servived a dip in the toilet. I would reccomend this phone to anybody that needs a very good basic phone that plays music and takes a reasonably good picture, One complaint I saw was the dropped call problem. I know fom experience, that this is a SIM card problem. Older SIM cards need to be replaced as the Cingular SIM cards do not work as well as the AT&T SIM cards. This is not a problem with the phone. I have had my LG CE500 going on 2 years now and have just recently had to get a new battery. GREAT PHONE.

"Lacks features, poor longevity" on by sumdumppl
Pros: mp3, flash, UI,
Cons: lack of many features, bluetooth, speakerphone, dies quickly
Summary: as this phone is no longer on the market (for good reason) I wont go into much detail, I have owned this phone for just short of a year and already I need to replace it because it simply will not remain functional. it either freezes or shuts down. while it has provided me with pretty good service up to this point the phone lacks all the features mentioned my reviews, bluetooth, speakerphone. etc.
