2 Extra Batteries/Charger for $15

Disclaimer; I don't know Jack about this.

Fleabay or somesuch chargers give me the Willies. I've heard of counterfeit chargers and *I think* a frutzed up charger could poon up your phone. Fleabay batteries I can be more comfortable with but I'm More comfortable if it's an OEM branded one.

For a charger and battery, I'll pay a couple three dollars more and get them from Amazon proper (not Just someone On Amazon). It's no guarantee but Some More certainty that you'll get the real stuff.

But whut da hell do I know. I'm jus' a Jawja Wadamelon picker. (oh about 40 years ago)

Amazon if pretty legit and for the price I just might go for this deal.

I tend to leave me screen On with Brightness at 100% when listening to music, and the Screen, followed by the O/S, uses most of the battery life so I need to get in the habit of either dimming the hell out of the screen, or just closing it when listening to music or both.

I also noticed the headphone jack is a bit loose and you really have to give the headphone plug a hard push to get it to click into place which kinda scares me as I don't want to damage the headphone input.

I also have a nice pair of VIZIO XVTHB100 Bluetooth Headphones that I bought for $30.00 on woot.com that retail for about $70.00 on Amazon.com and up to $90.00 elsewhere and I usually use those anyways, but I would hate to ruin the headphone jack regardless.

I guess I just need some time to adjust to this phone even though it is basically a larger version of my LG Motion with some enhancements, just like I had to adjust to the Motion from my iPhone.

BTW, unlocked iPhone 5's are selling for almost $700.00 on newegg.com and the specs are similar to the LG Spirit, although the iPhone has a few more bells & whistles and better screen res, 8MP Camera, but it costs about 4x more than the Spirit.

I would put the Spirit a close 3rd behind the iPhone 5 and when it comes to bang for the buck, the Spirit beats them all.

4.5" Screen
1.5GHz Dual Core CPU
1GB RAM
4.xGB of ROM with a provision for a 32GB Micro SD card.
And 4G LTE for $159.00?

I would have paid another $20-$40 for an 8MP Camera, but I have a 12 MP Camera anyways, so it's not like it's a major hindrance to my enjoyment of this great phone.

I showed it to a few of my friends today and they were blown away, but also saddened that the $70.00 rebate is over although it's still $229.00 on wirefly.com which is still a good deal.

Most of them are going to go with Metro once their current contract carrier unhand-cuffs them.

One of my co-workers said he was going to buy an LG Spirit before the rebate was over, but I won't see him until next week, but for those that got in under the wire, you all got a great deal.

BTW, Metro priced their LG Spirit at $269.00 with a $50.00 rebate and the LG Motion at $149.00 with a $50.00 rebate as well as of tonight.

So one can still buy the LG Spirit for $179.00 thru Wirefly after Rebate.
Still a great deal.

I was hoping they would leave the price at $149.00 for the Motion to help my resale price for mine on eBay, but I'll have to see how much I get for it as it is in mint condition.

Regardless, this phone kicks azz.
