My employer recently provided me this phone to replace an older Sony phone I had.  At first sight, I thought I was moving up in the world, but after some use, I can honestly say it has some okay and some not-so-good aspects.First, the good - the screen is fairly large and legible - with enough brightness to overcome glare when needed.  I''ve never had issues seeing the screen while out and about.  The touch sensitivity is superb, with very few to no "random" pushes being registered.  The included software bundle isn''t bad - although some of the decisions LG made clearly are designed to push you into their universe - which is nonsense, considering how useful the Android Marketplace is.  And the ultimate test - the phone feels good when I use it.  I hate using phones that are too big or too small and especially hate using phones that feel fragile.  This phone doesn''t feel fragile (even employs Gorilla Glass to prevent scratches) and is just about the perfect size for my hands.Now, some of the bad.  This phone does a horrible job of managing memory.  I''m not an app freak, as this phone is for work, but the few apps I do have to run have never given me problems before this phone - where they run fine, but you can visibly see the phone slowing down as the internal memory gets used up.  I''ve had to clear/force stop programs just to get the current app I am running to smooth out a bit.  This isn''t ideal.  It may have something to do with the fact that there isn''t an updated release of Android for this phone in the U.S. market.  A quick search online shows that other countries/regions (India, Hong Kong, Australia) have all updated the version of Android 2-3 times since the original release - but nothing in the U.S.  Not sure why there are different versions - but I digress.  The only other issue I''ve found with this phone is that if you accidently hit dial and want to cancel the call, the phone assumes you are mistaken and ignores your input.  Very annoying when you accidentally dial someone while inputting a new contact, etc and it is either way early or too late in the evening to be calling someone.I will caveat that this model phone (p705) seems initially designed for a foreign market and was never intended to be released in the U.S. (which could explain the lack of updated Android OS software in this market) and why my phone came pre-configured for Chinese.  If you are buying unlocked phones and ones not originally intended for the U.S. market, you are likely the kind of person that realizes that the phone will likely have a few growing pains to work through - but if not, now you know.  This phone (online search) seems to have been released officially in the above listed areas, a few South American countries, and a few other Asian countries - and that is it.Overall, I''ve enjoyed the upgrade to this phone and despite some major issues with lag/slowdown, I haven''t been disappointed.  I wish someone would develop a version of the upgraded OS for the U.S. (or that Google/Android would simply make this a mandatory upgrade feature, like Apple does), but even without it, the phone is fairly capable and easy to use.  The price is right, the features are nice, and if you don''t mind wading through a few foreign language sets until you find English - you should be fine.
