Review of LG 7100 Mobile Phone

...are too dark, then the lg 7100, with its integrated flash, could be for you. this dual-band gprs clamshell unit is available exclusively on the orange network and costs £79.99 with a monthly contract. it’s a compact yet chunky 94g camera phone with a good range of features, including the aforementioned flash unit and a neat twisting screen, however, it also misses one or two tricks. design lg locates the lens of the camera in the left end of ...
...around the cylinder. beneath the lg 7100’s lens is the built-in flash, which is a first for a camera phone. but don’t expect too much from the flash coverage: due to power limitations, lg recommends that your subject remains within 30cm of the camera. the phone, which is finished in black and matt silver design with chrome details, has a solid and well-engineered swivelling screen. the main 16-bit colour, 128-by-160-pixel tft display ...

...see in the image the LG logo is located just below the actual screen at the button of the whole circle. The sound button is located directly below the flash (see image -- side view). This phone also has an Infrared (IrDA) port which is located, in reference to the image, at about the same location of the final m in mm on the vertical measurement. Although when lying flat on a surface it may not fully line up with another Infrared port, you don't ...
...you will find either the LG logo or the logo of a network operator. As you would expect, there are two selection buttons. Slightly below them you get the, what I'm going to call, "Central Control Area" which features a blue 'OK' button (with an 'i' in the centre, like the @ symbol), and then you've got four directions; up, down, left and right. Each direction has a small indented 'outline' / 'shape' / thing...see below for details; Up = Telephone ...

Review of LG 7100 Mobile Phone

I have had this phone since 11/03. I originally chose it because I wanted a flip phone, and this one was available free on the Orange contract deal. On the whole it's been a good buy. The menu is easy to use and it's simple to find names, send txts etc. The display is nice and bright and easy to read and it feels comfortable when using it. The phone still looks good after 9 months, although the mirror/screen has got scratched from being tossed ...
...comes with the phone is also useful, although I always have trouble keeping earpieces in my ear! Would have been even better if an 'in car' charger had also been provided. On the down side, the camera is a waste of space, the pics are either very dark or very grainy. I've tried every permetation of setting and have not been able to take a decent photograph yet. However, the camera IS easy to use and the swivel screen is a great idea. The only other ...

Review of LG 7100 Mobile Phone

I got my LG7100 in December. It was free on contract with Orange, and I chose it because I liked the mirror on the front and the inside looked stylish, plus of course, it seemed to have all the facilities I required. It is now February, and I am on my third handset. The previous two had internal faults, and not because I had dropped them or been careless with them. The phone looks good; it is a little large as I said in the brief disadvantages, but ...
...a phone to be proud to be seen with. It offers WAP facilities, GPRS, predictive texting, a choice of colour backgrounds (additional can be easily obtained) polyphonic ringtones (once again these can easily be added to for a small cost), and also, a very easy to use camera. However, the camera is only of a decent quality in daylight, as the flash is not strong enough to cope with anything darker. The revolving screen does make it a lot easier to ...

...get used to it. LG is apparently a sister to samsung so functions are all very similar. Once you have entere the menu it has easy to use, animated functions such as call register, profiles etc. The ringtones are polyphonic however, only a selection of 12 and all are easily missed as volume does not go that high. The settings are good, you can choose between a variety of colour schemes for internal and external screens and choose animated pictures ...
...the time, date and a picutre and some stars flashing away when the flip is closed which can be at times entertaining! Camera: I would say is poor, you have to twist the swivel screen into an 90 degree angle to take pictures and although there is a flash, the quality is poor. I have never really used the camera as it requires to much preparation for those spontaneous pictures. There are however lots of options like some funny templates and continuous ...
