The LG 505c is what I consider a semi-smart phone. Previously, I had the Droid X2, so I was used to a LOT of features. Unfortunately, I couldn't afford to keep it and the Verizon service once I left my past employer, so I went searching for the things which were most important to me: a touch screen, qwerty keyboard, full contacts list (has spots for multiple phone numbers, email addresses, full options for a physical address, etc) and basic browser capabilities. I don't try to surf the web on the phone, that's not important to me ( I have a tablet for that), but I can access my email, which is good. The LG 505c from Tracfone does all of the above extremely well (well the browser is a bit slow, but oh well...). It also holds a charge for a week or more with light use and has very good sound quality. If you are a light to moderate user, you really can't beat the price for the phone or for the minutes purchased. I would definitely purchase it again.

Works everywhere. Clear sound and no problems texting. Perfect for rural areas with older towers and you can't beat triple minutes.

I tried the LG800G, but I had coverage issues with Tracfone. This phone gets much better reception and cooperates with Verizon and USCellular towers that the ATT programed 800g phones don't like. The touchscreen seems more sensitive on this phone compared to the 800g. I really like the slider keyboard. For me the keyboard is much easier to use than the touchscreen keyboard on the 800g. Screen size isn't much different, but it is slightly smaller. The phone works great and does everything I need it to. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars is the camera is only 1.2 megapixels compared to the 2.0 on the 800g. It also doesn't record video like the 800g. The triple minute feature is well worth the price of the phone. One other nice feature is the micro SD card can slide right in to the side of the phone without having to remove the cover and battery to access it. I can pop the card out and use it in my desktop reader any time I need without tearing the phone apart.
