LG KS360 pink

Product Information

The LG Chocolate had successor called the VX8550 LG Chocolate "Spin" which featured touch buttons with improved accuracy, a scroll wheel, support for 4GB microSD cards, and tactile send and end keys. With the slider opened it is two presses (the side key and then number pad key 1 for the music player, 2 for stills camera or 3 for video shooting). With the slider closed you have to precede these presses with two pushes of the volume up key which not only enables the front mounted touch buttons but also the camera/music player button.

The music player supports MP3, AAC and WMA files, and LG has thought about people wanting to use their own headsets. A proprietary connector on the right edge of the casing is shared by mains power, but the cable terminates at a nicely designed remote control with a 3.5mm adaptor on one end. The side mounted end call key sits next to another key – this opens a screen menu that allows you to use the built in music player or camera. The idea of a dual purpose key is, I suppose, to save on the number of keys around the edges of the casing. That said, I think I’d still rather have two keys as the arrangement that LG has chosen means that it takes multiple presses to get to either feature. I found it odd but not an enormously big deal that the end call key which doubles up as the power key sits on the right edge of the casing instead of in its usual place under the screen. It was fairly easy to get used to the position, and if you do find it annoying you can just end calls by closing the slider.

LG quotes the battery life as 200 hours with three hours 20 minutes of talk. I found myself wanting to charge every couple of days just to be on the safe side, but didn’t use the handset much for mobile music playing simply because its memory couldn’t hold enough tunes for me to make a serious choice while out and about. A slightly modified version of the KG800, released as the LG TG800, was sold by Rogers Wireless and Fido in Canada, released on the market in November 2006. [21] Additionally, Bell Mobility has a modified version of this phone that works on their CDMA/ 3G EVDO network despite the offering of the LG Chocolate (VX8500) in Canada available there through Telus Mobility. Motorola has also pulled out all the stops in giving the Razr Plus an incredible cover screen experience, putting in a 3.6-inch pOLED HDR10+ display with a 1066 x 1056-pixel resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. That's enough to watch movies and play games if you're willing to squint a bit, and unlike Samsung's Z Fip 5 cover screen, Motorola lets you run any Android app on it without the need to jump through complicated hoops. It's the best cover screen you can get in a foldable right now in size, quality, and versatility.

Why you should buy this: An excellent cover screen, top-notch performance, and a collection of vivid colors make this a solid choice for those who prefer an alternative to the world of Samsung devices. Never compromising looks for features, the LG Shine ‘Pink’s’ innovative technology includes the LCD mirror on the front which magically transforms into a high-quality colour screen when the phone is activated, 1GB of internal memory, expandable memory (microSD card), MP3 player, Bluetooth and a premium autofocus 2 mega-pixel camera, endorsed by Schneider-KREUZNACH. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 takes what was already a nearly flawless combination of design, performance, and durability and takes it up a notch. The new Flex Hinge is now close to perfect — an important feature in a phone that you'll be flipping open and shut several dozen times a day — and the build quality is even more solid, with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the screens, Samsung's Armor Aluminum frame on the outside, and sturdy, precision-engineered buttons.

The rollable device should arrive in March 2021

Swiveling the phone open is one thing; using it is another. Granted, you can’t use every app on the mini-screen, and it’s a bit onerous to get apps loaded on the big screen at all. But when you can make use of both at once, it makes other phones feel decidedly old-fashioned.

This is helpful for doing things that don’t need multiple screens, or when swiveling out is inconvenient, like in cramped quarters or while on the go. The Wing 5G is perfectly suitable for watching media and casual browsing with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G chipset and 8GB of RAM – specs that manage transitioning in and out of the multi-screen experience just fine. Before its European debut, the phone had already won an iF Design Award and Red Dot Design Award. [26] Motorola Razr to the LG Chocolate: Classic Phones We Miss From The 2000s". January Media . Retrieved 2023-07-16. Why you should buy this: Kyocera is an old hand in the cell phone arena and offers a small yet mighty flip phone to accompany you on your journeys to work or play. Even if users get tired of the swivel mechanic, they’ll still have a respectable phone that covers most of the bases. Sure, it doesn’t have a telephoto lens like most other phones on the market (let alone the Samsung Galaxy S20’s 30x ‘Space Zoom’), nor the sheer volume of screen real estate that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 has (effectively three phone displays’ worth).

You can’t answer a call with the slider closed. You have to slide up to take incoming calls, and can end them by sliding down.

Who it's for: Folks who want a flip phone with a fun and whimsical design that also offers a clean and versatile software experience and are willing to make a few trade-offs on the camera side to get it. But the LG Wing 5G has a far more dynamic design than today’s smartphones, one that will likely draw eyes whenever it’s swiveled open. Even if it’s eventually priced out of reach for the typical consumer, whoever makes the leap will have something no competitor can touch: true novelty. And yes, you can pretty easily take care of simple tasks on the mini-screen: at 3.9 inches, it’s nowhere near today’s smartphones, but at just a hair smaller in area than the iPhone 5’s 4-inch display, it has enough space for a compact Google search window or to text with a full keyboard. Writing more than a couple paragraphs on the mini-screen gets a bit annoying, but mostly due to the form factor, given the phone is slightly top-heavy when swiveled open. One major failing of this handset is that you have no way of expanding the internal memory. Now, there is 128MB of this designated as multimedia storage. This is fairly generous, but it is nowhere near enough for you to consider using the Chocolate KG800 as a substitute for a dedicated music player. At least copying music across is no problem as the handset functions as a USB Mass Storage device, and you get a cable in the box.

The LG Rollable and LG Slide names are being considered

On the inside, you get a 6.7-inch AMOLED 2X display with a resolution of 2640 x 1080 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate that's brighter than ever, so you'll have no problem seeing it outdoors. However, you won't need to worry about that nearly as often since the Z Flip 5 now boasts an expansive 3.4-inch Super AMOLED 720 x 748-pixel cover screen that can show you almost everything you'll need to see at a glance. It's so big, in fact, that you can run full Android apps on the Flip 5 cover screen ... after a bit of tweaking, that is. At the Mobile Choice Consumer Awards 2006, the Chocolate won the award for Best Fashion Phone, and was runner up in Phone of the Year beaten by Sony Ericsson K800i.

Truth be told, we were popping the phone open as much as we could, but the handset works just fine in its natural (unopened) state. The 6.8-inch OLED main display is still plenty of real estate to do any kind of task you’d perform on a traditional smartphone.
