CNET Asia Review
Good
The good: Sleek design; decent call quality; Bluetooth; world phone support; gorgeous display. 6.7
out of 10View score
The bad: Tricky controls; speakerphone; lacks external memory card slot; no voice dialing.
The bottom line: The LG KG800 Chocolate is indeed pretty, but its feature set and performance don't back up its trendy design.

Good Phone
Mar 8, 2007Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Design, quality, service
Cons: touch sensitive not for me
Opinion:
I Disagree with above me or below me about the phone having all those problems with the 151 missed calls because everyone had the same problem. I have a krzr from verizon and my sis has a pink razr and we all had the same problem it was the service because if you read online they would be rebooting and changing their system and ITS NOT THE PHONES FAULT THE PHONE IS EXCELLENT MY OTHER SISTER HAS IT AND ITS AWSOME THE ONLY PROBLEM ON NEW YEARS DAY WAS THE SERVICE REBOOTING THATS THE ONLY PROBLEM EVERYONE WITH VERIZON HAD IT SO PLEASE STOP BLAMING THE PHONE!!!
Sal is just hilarous!!

As such, in order not to change the average rating of this phone due to me, I'm rating the phone at the current average rating (~6) i.e. I won't change the overall average rating. If you're mathematically inclined, you'd understand what I mean
When beauty fails to excite any longer...
Jan 9, 2007Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: Beauty, dazzling display, good sound

Opinion:
I am a simple phone user, i.e. I merely call, receive calls and text. I don't even use the camera, only when I am REALLY bored. I don't use listen to music on my phone. I don't download anything... you get the picture. So when I was touted this phone about a month back, I thought hey, why not? Beauty and functionality. Not bad price tag too. So I bought... then a few days down the road, I discovered the hardness of the keys while texting. Oh well, never mind, can still bear with it. Then a few more days passed, and to my horror, I can only add one word on the T9 dictionary!!! Called up service centre, and was told sorry, you may bring it down for firmware update.
