Rumor, also known as Scoop with Alltel!

Date of Review:  Jun 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: I recommend this phone for those who text frequently. If you get bored with the color you can find snap on covers in several styles.
Review: I have Alltel so the same phone is called the Scoop and it comes in Slate(dark grey), Citrus (orange) and Turquoise Blue. If you have Sprint you can get it in Black (with blue keyboard), Green and White.

Things I like!

TEXTING:...

Rumor cell phone, good all around use phone from Sprint

Date of Review:  May 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: Good phone for text messages and surfing the web.
Review: The Rumor is packed with features that I will not use.

I chose this phone because of the qwerty keyboard as I like to send text messages. Also, unlike other phones, you are not required to buy an additional data plan which can add...

LG Rumor Cell Phone From Sprint

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend it, just purchase the extra insurance. Do not get it wet, even for a few seconds.
Review: I bought the LG Rumor as an upgrade from a very basic cell phone. The reason for my purchase was the QWERTY keypad and the fact that the keypad was reasonable in size. This was a new phone for my husband and he has big hands.

One of the...

Performence does not live up to it's looks!

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2008
The Bottom Line: Nice phone to have. Manufacturers can defnately use quite bit of improvements. Good phone to buy. But not the best, nor the worst! Recommendalbe only off of certain bases!
Review:     I bought a Rumor for my dad, but we ended up switching the phones. I got his, he got mine. I have been using the Rumor for about a 1.5months. It is a nice phone. I really like the Media Player, and the fact that you can use a external Micro SD...

LG Rumor - I do not recommend it.

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2009
The Bottom Line: Steer clear if you can avoid it on your network. Not worth the extra money. I should have gotten a no frills phone.
Review: I switched to this phone from the Samsung A737 because my new service provider didn't support a better phone. If you can, steer clear of the LG Rumor. The good reviews that it is getting here makes me suspicious of their veracity.

I'll start...

Great, especially the Rumor 2

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2009
The Bottom Line: I definitely recommend this in the "Rumor 2" incarnation, because it has many pluses and is a terrific price.
Review: I recently bought a Rumor 2 with an extension of my Sprint service.

I highly recommend the phone.  I am relatively new to texting or
other phone-email/web/etc. services, though I have used a cell phone
almost since they were invented,...

LG Rumor Reveiw

Date of Review:  Jul 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this phone to anyone but especially the young crowd
Review: I bought this phone about 4 months ago, an so far I really like it. It's lightweight, & stylish, although a bit bulky. It looks like a regular phone, but if you turn it sideways it has a hidden full QWERTY keyboard that slides out. You can type with...

Average phone

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 2008
Review: Bought to replace a very old phone.  Good at texting with the slideout keyboard.  Camera is below average. Doesn't read wma music files despite what the documentation says.  This is known by Sprint, but no fix in the works.  Converting to MP3 files,...

Love This Phone

Date of Review:  Jul 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: Yes, especially for those who never got quick at texting on a regular keypad
Review: I've had this phone for nearly 3 months now and couldn't be happier. I am usually the person that just get's the phone that comes free with the plan, but when I saw this phone I really liked it. My husband did as well and luckily they come in...
