awesome July 29, 2010 Deana Watson (Atascadero, California United States) I hope its not just me but i LOVE THE PHONE!! my mom has a black one and i use it all the time! The only thing i dont like about it is that the only touch screen part is typing in the #. Im not saying the touchscreen is bad, I love that feature in phones Its just i wish that it was more touch screen......
Keyboard:
I HATE flat keys. i think they are the WORST things in the world! This phone as bumps on the keys so you can feel the keys. the keyboard is easy to use and has no defaults. I hope you like it too!
menu:
It has im, mobil email, yellow pages, at&t music, media net, media mall, settings, tools, games and apps, my stuff, contacts, messaging.
I dont know if its just this phone but if you flip it to the keyboard, and you are on menu, it says that the space is select/ok. its not if. to select anything you have to press the normal ok button. which is the button that has the at&t globe on it. (the one you normaly use when it is put straight up)
The camera is great. i like it. it takes clear pics and is nice and big.
Overall, i think the phone is the BBBEEESSSTTTTT!!
I hope you enjoy just like i do. i am even going to buy myself one. i upgraded from a sonny ericsson. its not a full keyboard so i didnt enjoy it all that much. but now i REALLY enjoy my phone. I hope yo enjoy it too!

My 10 year old has this phone and it has been perfect for her. Easy to use, she loves all the features and ring tones. I couldn't have made a better choice. I would highly recommend.

Overall the LG Neon is a good value. It is easy to use and only takes a couple of minutes to set-up and get started.
The sliding keyboard is great for better SMS-ing but the keys could be a bit larger, in my opinion. The USB connection cable is offered as an extra accessory and it will set you back $30 to $40. The LG Neon does not have voice dialing built-in, although AT&T offers a similar service for a monthly fee.
The salesperson referred to the LG Neon as a hybrid touch-screen phone. The only touch-screen feature available is the numerical phone dialing screen which is conveniently accessible from the main interface.
Reading and sending email is quite simple if you have an AT&T, AOL, Yahoo! Or Windows Live account. Internet browsing is provided by AT&T Media Net application, but I immediately downloaded the Opera Mini browser. The Yellow Pages application could be useful but I also recommend downloading the Google Maps for mobile phones.
The Music folder contains limited trial subscription to Music ID and Make UR Tones applications. Demo games include Ms. PAC-MAN and Bubble Bash. The Neon has 14MB internal memory capacity and also features a microSD slot which supports cards up to 4 GB for extra storage. The Bluetooth wireless connectivity supports A2DP technology which can stream audio in stereo directly to the headset.
Aside from the touch-screen dialing pad, the two little features I enjoy the most about this phone are the "threaded messaging" and the "Create New Message" button on the keyboard. The threaded messaging displays full conversations and not just fragmented replies, while the New Message button is conveniently located on the keyboard.
I can get used to the LG Neon GT365 and for my particular needs this is a good phone. I do believe that the voice-dialing should be a standard feature and the USB cable should be included. With that said, I would recommend this phone for those who want simplicity and reliability for e-communication and quality voice calls.

Not a true touch screen, but still a fun phone. June 30, 2009 S. Randles (Beaufort, NC USA) 15 out of 17 found this review helpful
I was a little disappointed when I received this phone and realized it is only touch screen for dialing. That's it. I really wanted a true touch screen.
I love the QWERTY keyboard slider, it is great for texting. Camera is fairly good quality. It comes preloaded with some pretty nice ring tones. I like that I can choose what sound I like for things like message alerts.
Size is perfect. Fits in my hand or pocket with no problem.
Overall, I am satisfied with the phone. Just wish I hadn't been mislead into believing it was a touch screen, when it really isn't.
Not a bad entry-level messaging phone September 23, 2009 I'm Not Kafkaesque (Cape Cod) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
As a salesmen for a large electronics retailer, I try more cell phones per week than most people will try in their lifetime. That said, the LG Neon is a decent little phone when it's used for its intended purpose. The Neon is NOT a smartphone- if you're looking for an enhanced web browsing experience or PDA functions, stick with a Blackberry or an HTC.
The Neon shines at one thing, and that's messaging. The slide-out keyboard feels sturdy to me, which is a huge plus in terms of durability (loose, jammed or just plain broken hinges are probably the most common complaint I get about phones). The keys are round and have space in between them, giving the Neon a totally different feel when typing when compared to other texting phones, including LG's Xenon. I have also been thrilled with the Neon's mobile email integration, which is included in the phone's software for most major email services (Gmail support is not included, but can be added with a free application available from Gmail itself. Just visit Gmail through the phone's browser and download the app).
As a messaging phone, the Neon is great. As a telephone, the Neon is mediocre. I have experienced the strange 10-15 second silence that several customers have complained about (just check out the other reviews here and you'll know what I mean), although most of my calls have gone through just fine. The built-in speakerphone is handy and actually sounds pretty good. As a web browser, I've had a very pleasant experience using my Neon to check headlines and read news articles, but the phone's 2G network does not support graphic-intensive web browsing.
I use my Neon extensively for texting and mobile email and I've been very happy with it. If you're a heavy talker (as opposed to a heavy texter) or a frequent web user, aim for a higher end phone. That said, the overall design of the Neon is sleek, simple and, in my experience, durable enough to merit a recommendation to shoppers looking for a messaging phone. The entry-level pricing on the Neon doesn't hurt, especially if you're looking for a backup phone or a second phone to use strictly for texting.
