LG 101 (Virgin Mobile)

The LG 101 is about as low-rent as they come, but it makes a good second or third phone for occasional calls or emergencies.

Angle

The 101's rectangular, raised plastic number keys are easy to dial with one hand. 

Angle

The 101 looks fine for an inexpensive phone, with a pleasant mix of glossy and black plastics that doesn’t immediately scream cheap.

Front

The candy bar-shaped LG 101 measures 4.3 by 1.8 by 0.5 inches (HWD) and weighs a barely-there 2.5 ounces. 

Angle

One clear indicator of the LG 101’s low-rent status is the 1.5-inch primary display, which offers just 128-by-128-pixel resolution. It’s hard to find a screen that low-res nowadays.
