Easy interface, fun to use, great features - if you want a cheaper iPhone then this is a must!
Bad Points
The software suite from LG is woeful and I had trouble getting to grips with uploading tracks and pictures.
General Comments
I bought the LG KF700 the about a week ago so I've had a chance to put it through it's paces.
It has a good touch screen interface which is sensitive enough to be accurate, but not so sensitive it makes every touch send an email to your mum!
The features are pretty good and the music player is decent too. The camera at 3 mp is not the highest around, but to be honest it takes pretty good pictures which you can edit on board if you want using the features.
The phone 'feels' nice if you know what I mean... the weight is right, the contours are nice and overall you get the impression you are holding a classy bit of kit.
Texting is made easy with the slider function, allowing you access to press keys rather than touch screen.
I use my phone mainly as an organiser and for internet browsing, (as well as making calls of course!) and for this the phone is more than adequate. The browser function allows you to turn the phone on it's side to get a good widescreen view and the touch screen is fun in this mode too.
The organiser is fine, allowing you to sync up to Outlook (Express or MS Suite).
If you're a gamer you might be disappointed as there are not many games available - two are pre-loaded and one is a demo only (the other is - and I'm being fair to it here - pants).
There is no memory card provided so you have to buy one, but for £12.99 I got 2GB which is more than enough for me - you can go for up to 4GB.
Overall, if you can't afford an iPhone, want a decent music player and camera function, as well as a pretty good browser, this phone appears to beat the competition hands down. I would recommend it to my mates and that's the important thing.
