LG KF300: Fab if you want A basic phone with large Keys and font.

Advantages: deceent battery life, great in doing the basics, simple to use, great range of font sizes.
Disadvantages: Lacks Wi-Fi & GPS, Disappointing camera. inconveniently placed MicroSD slot!

...The phone is 98.8mm tall, 49.5mm wide and 16.2mm thick. measuring just over 180mm when the flip is opened. And although its a hefty phone it weighs a mere 98g. The KF300 from LG tries to be a 'slim and stylish flip phone for those who prefer an extra large keypad and changeable font sizes', according to LG's website. And i must agree with this statement. Its a handset that does a straight forward job, and offers great keypad useage for those with larger fingers who can not fly over the keypad or a touch-screen. Not only does this phone boast a large and easy to use keypad but the screen section has four buttons nestled neatly underneath. These are shortcuts to the phone's alarm, calendar, photo album and a favourites listing which you can populate with up to 12 more shortcuts. The screen is 2.2in (average size), with 240 x 320...

Review of LG KF300

LG does it at last

Advantages: Look, Design, Screen size,
Disadvantages: None at all

...I decided to treat myself to a brand new pay as you go mobile phone and I knew what I wanted and I knew that it was going to be on the orange network. The phone I am talking about is LG Viewty. The search began for the best possible price. I decided against getting the phone from Ebay as I wanted a brand new one which was boxed and never been open before. So why this model I chose this model purely because another family member has it and is always saying how good the phone is. I had borrowed it for a few days to see how good it really was and to be honest it's a phone that makes you go wow really! This little beauty is outstanding. Other reasons I chose this phone is that it is available on orange network which meant I could keep my own number too. Now the search began........ Where and how much= I bought mines...

Review of LG Viewty KU990

LG viewty

Advantages: Very impressive camera
Disadvantages: Short battery life

...This is my first lg phone and im very pleased to say its excellent! My worry about this phone was the touch pad but its very accurate and you get used to it fairly fast. You can make it easier by activating the vibration when you touch the keys as well which helps whilst texting. The only bad thing i would say about the phone is its battery life. I have to charge it every day and sometimes it only just makes it through but then again i do use it alot. The best thing about the phone has definately got to be the camera quality. its amazing for a phone and the video is the best i have ever seen a camera phone produce. I have put the videos and pictures on my p.c and they are very clear especially the video. there isnt much distortion at all. overall i think this is proberly the best phone on the market at this current time and would choose...

LG KU990 - hmmm

Advantages: Great camera and video capture, nice interface, good design and aesthetic appeal to others!
Disadvantages: Music player being of poor quality! Slow load time using LG software, and no lens cover for camer

...Well then, here i am writing my personal review of the LG KU990, better known as the LG viewty. I purchased my LG KU990 last August with o2 on pay as you go. Great i thought, this phone is EVERYTHING i could ever wish for, great spec. camera, music player, funky looks and design. The packaging of the Viewty is all very cleverly put together and has a reassuring quality about it, from the way the outer sleeve hides the small but perfectly formed box, which, ok call me sad, i found a joy to open. Upon opening the box, and seeing the pop-up near life size version of the Viewty, one is again met with the reassuring air of 'oh this is a quality product', and to be fair, on the whole i think that it is. Contained in the box is all the usual assortment of items you would expect to come with a phone these days, charger, headphones...

Review of LG Viewty KU990

LG Viewty - Technologically Stunning.

Advantages: Touch Screen, looks, build, functions/features.
Disadvantages: No WiFi, no multitap on the Touch Screen.

...with a camera screen protector! Result and all for less than a £5'er! The camera is outstanding, perhaps not as fluid as that of the Samsung G800 as that has optical zoom built in. But still the viewty ceases to falter. Excellent image quality for 5 Megapixel. On top of this, it has the ability to upload videos directly to YouTube (check with your service provider first) and to shoot video at 120 frames per second, which allows you to slow it down and watch it in slow-motion. Although i must say i've not yet used this feature. I'm sure i'll have hours of fun with it soon enough though. The software on the phone is very good, having used the N95, G800 & F700 recently for a a lengthy time i feel this phone wins hands down. Although the N95 does have the Symbian OS and is more "tweakable". LG i'm sure will bring an update for the handset...

Review of LG Viewty KU990

LG Viewty = 5 Stars!

Advantages: Camera, Screen Size, Music, Free Internet
Disadvantages: Battery Life

...I got this phone yesterday morning and I decided to wait a bit before writing a review. I've been attached to this phone for the past 36 hours and I've sussed most things out. I got this phone after reading reviews on here and other mobile sites. The choice was between an LG Cookie and this phone, however, I wanted a phone that had similar features to my old Samsung G600 and I decided to go for this one! I bought it from Tesco on the Vodafone network as it was on offer for £97.86 (once you'd spent £30 in store). I got home and opened the box and I have to admit I was a little disappointed. All I got was the manual, Vodafone booklet, phone, battery, charger & USB cable. I thought they could have provided headphones and a stylus (it's a good thing I can manage fine without the stylus however I would like some headphones!!) I shortly...

Review of LG Viewty KU990

  Easy to use stylish LG

Advantages: The camera
Disadvantages: The battery life if you need the internet all the time..

...of phones for my price plan, then I had to choose..! After having a little bit of a play around with one of the men who worked in T-mobile's phones.. I picked one..! The LG Viewty..! Why..? To be honest there was no reason I got this phone other than the fact the guy in the shop sold is so well to me and I loved the fact it was totally touch screen..! It was mainly the price plan that sold it to me, but the phone despite its size is very stylish..! Prices.. Well I bought my phone for free..! Yay..! On every network there is an offer for this phone.. I'll give you the details of my own as it is by far the deal with the most for your money.. T-mobile: A free LG Viewty 700 minutes Unlimited texts And Free web'n'walk.. (internet on your phone) (Yes I got the offer off the TV..!) It is available...

Review of LG Viewty KU990

LG Viewty

Advantages: Can do almost anything on this handset
Disadvantages: Clumsy, hard to see in sunlight, annoying touch screen

...The LG Viewty is different to your average mobile. Better or worse I'm not sure yet and I've had a device for around a month now. Unfortunately my LG did not come with a stylus so I cannot comment on that, however the touch screen responds to fingernail taps, albeit not always very well. Horrendous to use whilst on the move and impossible to see in the sun. Vibrate function does not always work, nor does the message alert so texts can go unread for a while. Very poor signal in most areas which apparently is the fault of the handset and not the network. Good internet access, good memory, camera is of a worse quality than a 3.2 mega pixel I had previously. Not ideal for the fast texter and when ringing an automated number (e.g. Press 1 for Customer Service) the keypad disappears so the phone has to be unlocked and a menu...

Review of LG Viewty KU990

LG Viewty

Advantages: Look, feel and sexyness of this phone
Disadvantages: Battery life

...The LG Viewty was the first touchscreen mobile phone to arrive on the market and it has set the way for the rest. It is very stylist and hardwearing. The 5 megapixel camera is fabulous and has made my usual digital camera redundent. I would recommend getting a contract with a good mobile internet package as the phone is excellent for looking at web pages. And has come in usefull on many trips to the pub quiz! Some downsides of the phone is whilst using it as an MP3 player it takes a while to scroll through the list of artists and the battery life is quite short, especially because the phone is so good you play with it alot! I would recommend this phone to anyone, and have already, 3 of my friends now have this phone too!...
