Shows default screen, functions menu, and messaging / keyboard layout etc. Its a good mid-level phone for the money (240 out the door with memory card and extras), and should please anyone not trying to keep up with the latest technology.

Being bound to a weighty contract is shameful indeed, and deserving of Ranjit & Chad's ire.
0.55 min. | 4.62 user rating		 A quick video to show some of the features of the new LG Optimus M smartphone from MetroPCS. This video does not contain any technical specs for the phone, they can be found here: www.lg.com Also this is not an unboxing video, we all know what a box looks like and nobody wants to watch me rifle through manuals and plastic bags. The phone came with the following in the box: - The phone, battery and back cover - A 2GB MicroSD memory card, already installed - Wall charger and USB cable - Operator's Manual - Various MetroPCS Promotional Information Any Questions? Feel free to ask below!
8.38 min. | 4.75 user rating		 The Samsung Craft Craft is unique in that it's a 4G phone that also supports Wi-Fi, but it's not a smartphone. The Samsung Craft is a new multimedia phone from MetroPCS. Metro has begun the roll-out of their new LTE network, starting in Las Vegas and Dallas. Sydney checks out the Craft in this unboxing video.

2.22 min. | 4.96 user rating		 The Optimus M is one of the first Android smartphones available from MetroPCS and it's a good start. Though it is considered to be a midrange Android smartphone, it performs well. It ships with Android 2.2 as well as LG's custom UI. Along with that, it is equipped with a 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera. In this video, Sydney does a full review of the Optimus M and shows why she was so impressed by the performance. She covers topics such as speeds, camera quality, web browsing, battery life, and more.
