I recently upgraded to my new LGKM900 Arena from my current LG KF600 Venus after a bit of an argument with my (now) former provider.
I got a great deal from Orange so I'm now the proud owner of the Arena.
It's a candybar phone with a completely touch screen interface. I was a bit wary about not having a keypad but this phone is very responsive and I haven't had any trouble so far. My phone has a screen protector on it so it doesn't get scratched and this hasn't affected the way the phone responds to touch.
It has the unique 'S-class' interface which has four different screens - the widget screen which is completely customizable, the contacts screen which displays your favourite contacts, the shortcut screen which is again customizable to your own choice and the multimedia screen which displays your favourite tracks and photos.
There is the 'Home' screen which has all the other options such as calendar, calculator, messaging, camera etc.
There is a five million pixel camera with flash and auto focus which is really good. The pictures are clear and focused and operated via the touch screen controls. As with most camera phones, the pictures aren't brilliant quality when taken in low light but they are adequate enough.
This phone is wi-fi enabled for surfing the next on wireless networks, and has bluetooth and 3G.
There is 8GB of internal memory and room for expansion with a micro SD card up to 16GB.
The reason I picked this phone is because it rivalled the iphone for both storage and features. I've got 8GB of storage for music and pictures and I'm pretty sure I won't need all of it. The camera isn't top of the range but I have a digital camera for fantastic pictures and 5mp is more than adequate for taking a few snap shots on the go.
One little annoyance is that the screen switches itself off and you have to keep pressing the on/off button to bring it back on. It also defaults to a screen saver and you have to press and hold the screen to unlock it. This isn't too much of a problem though as it does maintain the security of the phone.
