LG Chocolate - VX8500, KG800

Posted December 15th, 2006 by Alex Ion

LG Chocolate review

It got a lot of attention in the last few months mainly because of its design. Gorgeous mobile phone, slim, black and very fashionable with a red glowing touchpad. The mobile phone is a tri-band GSM with GPRS, with a camera of only 1.3 megapixel, 1280 x 960 pixels - not the best, and 128 MB internal memory. The navigation buttons are a little different, more likely as in an iPod.

If it were to make an overall impressions we would say that besides the very interesting design it doesn’t have more things that other phones won’t have. It’s just very nice and very sleek. The standard battery, Li-Ion 800mAh, has a stand-by up to 200hours, and talk time of up to 6hours.

The display is also very sleek with a TFT with 256k colors, 176 x 220 pixels, with touch sensitive navigation keys. The con of the display is that it will attract fingerprints.

The Lg Chocolate mobile phone also has a very nice list of features which include SMS, EMS, MMS, Email, the browser is WAP 2.0/xHTML compliant, includes a T9 and an Organiser among with the mp3 and mpeg4 player. You won’t have 3G on that phone, neither an infrared port, HSCSD or EDGE connections. It has however have Bluetooth and USB.

The main disadvantages are:

  • no memory card slot
  • no FM radio
  • no airplane mode
  • slow camera interface

The 15mm width LG Chocolate permits to be put in a small pocket or very tight jeans. The good price would surely win you as an owner.
