Ok, so now that few of you have been using the P500 for a considerable period of time, i think i can finally get first hand opinion about my only real worry about this phone. Is the LG P500 a good buy as a primary phone intended for heavy(read rough) usage (lots of calling, texting, e-mails, surfing, social networking, angry bird type games, etc) in the long run? Will it provide enough battery backup? (Atleast as much as my 21 month old 5230).
Actually the only non-nokia phones i've ever used was a Moto E365 and a matchbox sized Panasonic, that too, ages ago. This has lead to a perception that no other manufacturer comes even close when it comes to build quality, reliability(HW) and longevity. Infact, compared to my 5230 every other sub 10k phone from other manufacturers looks and feels dangerously flimsy.
So, now after much ado, i have decided to jump onto the android bandwagon(sorry nokia!) and as Nokia is not an option, I'm getting rather confused with my miniscule budget of 11k.
P500 is my first pick. The only worry is can it withstand reasonable abuse over a long period of time( say 12 to 18 months)?
Do put your valuable inputs.
