Rating  - LG Rumor Review.
THE GOOD
The LG Rumor has a lovely design, with a built-in hidden QWERTY keyboard for easy messaging. Features include a 1.3-megapixel camera, an MP3 player, Bluetooth, and more. It provides easy access to Facebook, plus it supports Sprint Navigation.
THE BAD
The LG Rumor does not have EV-DO, and surfing the Web can be quite slow. The screen has poor resolution, and the camera has no flash.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Though the LG Rumor is not as fast as we'd like, it's still a great messaging multimedia device for those who don't need a lot of speed.

Rating - Very Nice
Over all this phone is very nice. I've had it for a while and I've certinly put it to the test. It's been dropped, thrown, and even submerged in water for about 2 seconds and it still works fine. One thing that has occured because of the daily ware is a really annoying creaking noise when I type. It's usually just w/ the numbers but it sometimes w/ the qwerty keyboard. I highly recomend it as a first or second phone for ages 12-25. The texting is awsome and there's no fuss of adding names and such to the T9w dictionary. If you don't usually text this phone is just like any other. But in the end I give it a 5 star rating.
Rating  - Generally Awesome
I have only had this phone for about a week. So bear that in mind as you read. When I first got the phone, the pic mail was working fine. Then it wasn't for a day, so I called customer service and they fixed it within 1/2 hr. Then it stopped working again for a few hours yesterday due to "network difficulties". I was also trying to make calls yesterday and the person on the other end could only hear an echo. Now I am a little concerned over the quality of this phone. Although I do love the features on it. Vision is awesome, I can IM on Yahoo, get my email quickly. The camera takes very good quality pics if there is enough light. And the keyboard makes it simple to text. My battery lasts me the whole day and I am a constant texter and caller. As stated before, I am a little concerned over quality, so I would recommend buying the insurance.
Rating - Great Phone
This is really a great phone. I have chubby fingers but the keyboard was easy to use. There is room for improvement, of course. At the moment there are not many applications you can use with this phone. For instance, games like Jewel Quest, Solitaire, etc. The only pack you can get is the Vision Pack. The browser could be better. Overall, I love the phone!!
Rating - Good Phone, but there's room for improvement, 3.5 stars
Pros:
-Uses Sprint Vision (Not Power vision - EV-DO) so I didn't need to change my plan. -but this may be a con for others-
-Qwerty key pad
-1.3 Mp camera
- Applications: Facebook, Aim, Instant messenger, Email, internet.
-Micro Sd slot so you can store more music and pictures
-Bluetooth
-size and weight is great and the raised buttons make it easier to dial.
-music player sounds pretty good
Cons:
*Some of my con's are quiet specific to things that I usually want/need in a phone, and didn't realized until after I had received the phone. Its still a good phone, but I would be happier if it had some improvements.
-Camera doesn't have a flash.
-Glitches in photo program. If you select pictures to save to your phone (either via online albums or pictures sent) it may save the photos you didn't want, or will just save the first photo 3 times, instead of the 3 different photos you selected.
-QWERTY key pad should have a button for the period, you need to "shift" then hit the period.
-The typing software can use some improvement, such as predicting words and such. The feature is there but lacks accuracy.
-Screen needs better resolution & colors. currently 176x220 pixel resolution.
-*Can't use own music (on SD card) as ringtones,
-*Difficult/can't use own pictures (from SD card) as the background/screen-saver.. I still can't figure it out.
-*Short cut navigation key for some reason the category "My content" doesn't let you make a shortcut for the sections within it. I want a shortcut key to Google maps, which is within 'my content', but it doesn't allow it, the best it will do is let you shortcut to 'my content' and then you have to scroll from there which is kinda annoying..
-*The idle/key lock screen is always the black screen with the time that you can't change.
-*There isn't a flashing light to tell you of a missed alert, until you click on a button and see the black/keylock screen. Else the phone just looks like its sleeping, so you have to consistently click on the buttons to see if you've missed any alerts.
Pictures you take with the phone look pretty well (granted you have the prefect lighting) on the computer, but everything on its low resolution screen makes photos seemed washed out and blurry.
