Good starter phone. Easy to use. Concise prompts .
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m 74. This is my first cell phone. My condolences, apologies and sincere thanks to the store personnel who, through agonizing hours, finally launched me. I returned to the store each day for five days and they were patient beyond belief. What I like about the phone: It is unlocked and has a battery. The power on/power off button is on the back. Contrast can be adjusted to sharp. Font is available in huge and bold. What I didn’t like about the phone: The calendar and the ringtones. However, the store personnel helped me get a calendar and a ringtone that I like. This is right starter phone for me, at the right price, and it may be all I will ever need.

LG Cell Phone
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For seniors who want to upgrade from your flip phone, this LG phone is a good choice. It's easy to use, light weight, offers large size text options, bright screen and volume options with your speaker. It's also cheaper than I-phones and offers all the apps that you would need for daily communications and other activities. It was really easy to set up and transfer my contact list and photos from my old android phone to this phone. I also play Word with friends without any problems. There are apps available for other games as well.

My granddaughter stole it.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the phone as a test unit to convince my wife that our local wireless telephone company had fringe area coverage equivalent to the national "V" company she used. I handed it, and my wife's CDMA iPhone, to our granddaughter one day when they were leaving on a high school field trip halfway across the state. (Rural Wyoming has lots of holes in cell coverage.) Her assignment was to watch both phones and report to Grandmother on differences in coverage. She did so. But she fell in love with the little phone and never gave it back. Her Grandmother said: "all of the other members of my speech and debate squad have cell phones, she needs one, too." Then Grandmother purchased a new (GSM) iPhone 11 for herself, and changed companies. So, this little, inexpensive, LG phone cost me a lot of money. Both women are very happy.

Excellent upgrade from my LG Power
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LG K8 2018 is a superb cell phone, excellent in about every quality I can think of. I purposely purchased the unlocked model in order to continue with my old time friend and carrier TRAC FONE. TRAC FONE sent me the new SIM chip to make this new phone functional and received in 2 days. Again, an excellent product. Best Buy personnel made the exchange of info from old phone to new a seamless event and rapid. Thank you, Best Buy!

Simple easy to use smartphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought each of my girls this lg k8 2018 phone to use with tlng.com. easy setup and SIM worked. Just the right size for them. Not the fastest but for the price, no issues and fully functional. The battery could last longer but it is removeable, so spare could be bought if needed. My girls use a portable power bank. Good value for the price point!

Q: QuestionI hope I can use my LG K8 2018 with T-Mobile who I've been with for 10 years. I called the 2 T-Mobile stores in my area and let's just say the employees who answered the phones didn't sound that swift. Idk if I'm going to stay with T-Mobile or not.

Q: QuestionThe phone is unlocked and says can be used with any carrier, can it be used with Consumer Cellular?
Asked by MIGirl.
- A:Answer Yes, it can. That's my preferred cell phone carrier. I am using this phone with Consumer Cellular right now, and it works great. Just be advised that initially you will have to reboot your phone several times for it to work correctly. After setting up the phone, I tried to make a call and it did not work. I rebooted (turned the phone off and on again) and it worked. Next I had trouble sending and receiving texts. I rebooted the phone again, and the texts worked fine. Then my sister sent me a picture in a text. I could not see it. I rebooted the phone, and, sure enough, it worked. Any problems, call Consumer Cellular. Their customer service is top notch.
