LG KG800 Chocolate Phone

The undercarriage announced a European version of their popular Korean “chocolate” fixed at the hand - smooth slide block looking at based on a popular Korean CDMA fixed at the hand which sold 300.000 units only in Korea since its launching last November.


Undercarriage KG800 weighs just 83 grams, and has a posting of the Pixel 176x220, Bluetooth, 128Mb of internal storage, a camera of 1.3 megapixel more one player MP3. “The chocolate” telephone obtains its name because of its more popular color, but another ordered turn is that there is of with “hidden” touch which ignites only in certain circumstances. This gives to undercarriage KG800 a very distinctive and smooth glance once enclosed, which returns to certainly to seem it KG800 different from anything else on the market.

The undercarriage put the KG800 in one month of the original advertisement, because the company are very sharp to produce the distinctive products in Europe, but supposedly they are also impatient to obtain the KG800 outside before someone else copies it. During launching, the KG800 is available by the warehouse of Carphone/la Chambre and subsiduaries of telephone in Europe, and there are rumours of a version of the USA too.

LG-SV420 Shine

G-SV420 is part of LG’s “Black Label” range, which includes the LG Chocolate, although there are many different “Chocolate” handsets in different markets. So, this Korean CDMA version of the LG Shine is called the LG-SV420, but any derivative for worldwide markets would be slightly different.

The large 2.2″ screen has a mirrored effect which complements the overall design. The primary control is a scroll key arrangement in the middle of the handset, plus a couple of selector buttons. The LG-SV420’s keypad unslides to reveal a pretty conventional keypad with a discrete checkerboard pattern. The LG-SV420 is about looks rather than raw technology. It’s a sleek looking slim slider, which is certainly very shiny and is nicely alliterative.

LG KU800 Chocolate Cellphone


The LG KU800 is a 3G version of the LG “Chocolate” KG800 phone, which should be available from Vodafone (pictured) and some other operators by Christmas 2006.

It’s a great looking phone, and of course the original LG Chocolate was one of the most attractive phones of 2006. The most serious flaw with the Chocolate was the way that the heat-sensitive keys were just TOO sensitive and would activate accidentally. We don’t know if LG have fixed this in the KU800, but our advice would be to back up your address book to a PC on a regular basis.

LG Chocolate display has been upgraded to 240×320 pixels, but bizarrely the colour depth appears to have dropped from 262,000 colours to 65,000. and it appears to have a 1.3 megapixel camera (although Vodafone issued a press release saying that it was 2 megapixels, so check before ordering).

Internal memory is 60Mb and this is expandable using microSD/TransFlash cards. AT 98 grams, the KU800 is 14 grams heavier than the KG800.
