How is the flip hinge on this phone, was it was replaced?

I don't know if it was replaced or not. It feels like a new phone. It snaps open and shut. Nice and tight-not loose or spongy.

Yes, it's just a two piece magnet. One part actually clamps on the flip part itself and the other attaches to the bezel of the phone with an adhesive strip that's pretty strong. The magnet is actually within the piece that attaches to the phones bezel and once the flap is closed the magnet holds it together and keeps it from opening up on its own which will happen with the S-View case or any other flip cover without some type of locking mechanism. It's a simple solution at a reasonable price.

Talking on the phone is easy as it folds back entirely to the back side. I have used this cover for about a month and see no indication of hinge wear. The only thing to note is to use the phone the cover needs to be folded behind the phone which is unique for phone covers I've used in the past. To me it provides great protection, fits very welly, and has held its shape and shows no signs of wear. I recommend it.

You can flip the phone open while it's in the case. Great case for the phone.

This is a nice hinged case. You do not have to remove the case to use your flip phone.

I like flip phones. This one is rugged enough for me. I use it on the job site daily and haven't had any problems .

The buttons were plastic. However I no longer have the phone. I had to throw it away. There was some sort of electrical malfunction that developed after a few months. The speaker would pop on loudly even with the phone hung up. This would happen frequently. I opened up the phone and put a piece of plastic over the speaker contact but that didn't help. I believe the problem was on the circuit board. Hopefully the problem was mine only and not a design flaw.

I don't think the phone has changed. I just got mine last month...phone and cover. (I like the cover a lot..especially the magnetic closure.)

i had this phone like 5 years ago and it wasn't then. i don't think anything has changed. but i highly recommend NOT getting this phone. me and 2 of my friends that had it had the exact same problem of a completely defective touch screen. touch the left side of the screen but you're somehow selecting something on the right side ... we all went through about 3 replacements before giving up and just getting new phones

From my experience, I have a regular flip open LG phone I purchased from Verizon and I've had no problem.

I have been happy with mine, other than the knob that you push down the toast with broke in about the first month. $18 for a replacement and it was on back order.

Busted...Mine came directly from Verizon. They actually gave it to me for free. And, it just needed to be broken in. It closes now with no problem.

It is very easy to remove the phone. There have been several improvements since I bought my first one two years ago. I wish they would improve the durability along the right edge of the phone.

Sorry, I don't have the flip case to know but I have the Zerolemon extended battery that makes the phone twice as thick as normal and it barely fits.

Yes, its actually easy to fix. You just need to get you a little screwdriver kit for your phone to remove and replace the phone.
