LG Esteem

Instant Rebates would be good. Every store I have called says that, " It should be $100 mail in rebate but wont know untill the phone actually comes in tomorrow afternoon. "
 
The phone will be $349.00 with a Mail-In Rebate of $100.00. It also, most definitely, is being shipped with Android 2.3

And we do have instant rebates, lol. I believe they're called instant discounts on the website.
 
I have the phone and so far love it and its very fast im uploading a unboxing on YouTube check it out tpye shino4757

Haha .. I'm not even going to get this phone .. just following it because its interesting like the indulge was .. I was just about to check to see what you were up to on youtube Shino.. I figured you had it ..
 
Im glad Sniper was very friendly and helpful hope he can make a second part to the video and can't wait for Shino's version.


Well I got my question answered on hofo. Battery does quick charge I hate that the indulge takes 4hours while turned on to fully charge I guess no one else has never had an android phone before the indulge I'm just frustrated with no quick charge wouldn't need an extended battery if the damn thing would charge in like 40 min.

The beautiful thing about the Esteem is that it has the extended battery pack on sale :D no third party sellers :D
 
I have a stupid question.

Is the Esteem superior than the Indulge? The specs seem a lot better than the Indulge but why hasn't MetroPCS lowered the price of the Indulge?

The Indulge has been at $299 since April and it's not even that good. I'm just surprised that the Indulge is still so highly priced.

Indulge will drop to $199 Oct 1, when the Esteem drops to $249 officially.

By the way, Metro now says you WILL get the rebate even if you buy before Oct 1. They sent email to all stores on Thursday.
 
I have been searching for the $100 rebate I'm hearing so much about. All the review web sites are saying that the NEW LG Esteem from MetroPCS has a $100 rebate and the phone will actually cost $249.99. Yet I have called many local Metro stores and even called corporate, none of them confirm a $100 rebate with this phone. Any help out there?????

MetroPCS said on twitter and facebook -- and sent mails to all their CORPORATE stores that they would honor the $100 rebate NOW, instead of waiting until October 1.

There's a $100 rebate program for the Esteem and the Indulge that is supposed to start Saturday, Oct. 1. But in their Wednesday press release for the Esteem they implied it was available now -- they forgot to mention a start date. So, as of Thursday, they back tracked and said they would honor purchases of the Esteem before Oct. 1

You will see the rebate form on the website Oct 1, and you can download it then.

And here's the price cards you will see:

If you call a corporate store (owned by MetroPCS), not just an "authorized dealer", they should have the info. All the corporate store managers were sent emails about this yesterday.

I was thinking tomorrow to get the Lg Esteem tomorrow,because the MIR start on the 1st..but I now wondering if I go to a authorized dealer I wont get the MIR? or they wont know nothing on the MIR for the Lg Esteem?
 
Wi-fi hotspot feature (i.e. Metro approved tethering) supposedly to launch in late October for extra fee.

You hear anything more about this? It'd be great for people like myself who want tethering but don't know anything about rooting and Easy Tether.

oh, btw, I ordered an Esteem today! My first smartphone. Glad I waited and didn't buy the Indulge.

The sad part is that i went to the corporate store and they had the ESteem side by side with the indulge. The indulge looked like a midget next to the Esteem. Now i want the Esteem....have to save some money for it :D
 
How are u chazz i have a question for you how did you manage it to get the htc sense clock on your steem as in the youtube video and the picts you have posted thanks???
