Optimus V
Edited: Aug 10, 2014, 12:33 PMPhone owned for more than a year
I got the phone on Apri 1, 2011 and had it for over a year. At the time it was the only decent phone for Virgin Mobile, it was my first Android. It was a bad Android.
The phone worked for the first 2 months, after that it would start miss calls, or text messages every other day. Sometimes taking up to a week to recieve/deliver a text message. If I decided to install an app to send text messages, I was probably going to have to uninstall something since it only has 1Gb (.14GB) which is most of the time used by cache, contacts, and useless bloatware. I constantly had to manually delete cache of all the apps I was scavaging limited bytes, it felt like a survival/horror game.
It lasted more than a year by the time I already did 4 factory resets and the last month I had only the default apps, that is when the hardware started failing. It died in May, 2012. RIP is Piece ;<
For the price it sells on eBay now $30 is much better than the $150 I paid for, although if you really need a $30 phone for Virgin, might aswell go for an LG Optimus Elite, which has 1GB of storage, better processor, more RAM, better camera, takes actual videos(less fps /= cinematic), and better battery all for ~$5 more.
