 LG Aloha is a terrific little basic phone! July 8, 2008

I am a person who is tired of expensive contract phones. I tried Virgin Mobile as I heard that they have the best prepaid phones on the market. I got the Aloha on sale for $10.00. I was pleasantly surprised. It has great call quality. It's very simple to use, especially for texting. it doesn't have alot of bells whistles, but it's a great basic phone. It has 2 calculators. i would recommend it for teenagers and for budget-conscious adults. You can check your balance with the press of a button. the only thing I wish they would improve on it, is the volume. it could be a little louder. For a mobile phone that costs under $20.oo, it's terrific. Also a great phone for someone who wants a spare, back-up phone.

The phone is ok simple just what I expected, what really disapointed me was that from what I understood the cost was a total of $16.92 of airtime service which I never received either through amazon or virgin mobile, amazon was giving the phone for "free" and the fee would be towards airtime but like I said I have yet to receive $16.99 worth or airtime...maybe Im wrong.
It is what it is. March 29, 2008

This is a great little phone for people who are not addicted to their cell phone. In other words, if I want to call someone, it works. If someone wants to call me, it works. The occasional text message, no problem. Good display, decent keypad. Easy to understand, I mean, it's a phone for criminy sakes. The price, fantastic. I paid 15 bucks for it, and it works EXACTLY as advertised. I love Virgin Mobile! No BS, no tricks, no hidden fees, just great service at a very fair price. Well done.
Great Phone!!! March 16, 2008

I love my phone!!! It has everything I need and it's small so for me it's perfect! I was even able to download a ringtone from my favorite band(30STM)And at this price it's a steal!!!All you have to do is purchase a $20 topup card every 3 months and its so easy to add more airtime.
