The U8380 is evolutionary and looks very similar to previous generations of LG 3G phones. It’s an attractive silver clamshell phone which is stylish (apart from the external aerial) but rather heavy. It has the usual features that you’d expect from a high-end 3G phone: a 1.3 megapixel camera, a high-quality video camera (0.3 megapixels), video calling, a music player, expandable memory and Bluetooth wireless connectivity. In addition the U8380 has 3D sound from stereo speakers, which is a welcome improvement over previous models, and it also has an improved external display using a bright TFT screen which can be viewed much more clearly in bright light.

The LG U8360 comes with 3G technology which provides the user with a fast & efficient mobile phone. The user can connect to other devices using a USB cable which allows the user to transfer data using a wired connection. The user can use a Bluetooth® wireless connection to connect to any Bluetooth® compatible device including a headset, printer, PC or laptop. The user can access the internet using the WAP Internet browser which is fast due to the 3G technology on the U8360. The phone works over GSM 900, GSM 1800 & GSM 1900 networks & the phone will automatically swap between network bands without the user knowing.

The camera seems to work fine, but night mode isn’t that great. Images can be taken up to a resolution of 1260 x 960 pixels, which is very good by today’s standards. The mp3 player is easy to use and sounds great. The Mpeg4 video’s are shown vibrantly and fluently. PC connectivity is good, and files transfer quickly. I own the black version and the design is cool, but the antenna and more than average weight is not to good. Overall, the LG U8360 is a great mobile phone with lots of features, and I would recommend it to everyone who wants lots of features and who is not to fussy about weight.

Not as high a quality screen as I expected and the phone is very large which makes it unable to fit in pocket - a big downside. It strikes you as an ‘older’ phone due to its ‘brick’ size! I wouldn’t recommend it.

The LG F2400 comes with everything you’d expect in a current entry-level phone, plus a little bit extra. First, the basics — the F200 is a dual band GSM 900/1800 phone, can handle GPRS, can send SMS, MMS and emails, 40-channel polyphonic ringtones, and has a built-in VGA camera (640×480 pixels). The extra bit lies with its Bluetooth connectivity, something that’s still pretty rare for a model in this price range. While the phone doesn’t come with infrared, Bluetooth does allow you to use any Bluetooth headset on the market (the F2400 only comes with a wired hands-free solution) or connect up to another enabled device.

On opening the F2400 the 128 x 160 pixel display springs into action. It occupies most of the top flip section, except for the earpiece holes towards the top of the flip. The bottom flip has the full numerical keypad and soft/special function keys. The keys can be used in any lighting situation with a blue backlight. The keys are sunken into the handset and are very large, easy for those with less-than-perfect eyesight to use. They’re perfect for messaging.

The clamshell form - factor is considered to be fashion solution till now, that is why the phones of such type cost more than their analogues in the traditional design. The manufacturer tried to give maximum of the fashion component to the model C1100. It is interesting that instead of the external display there is a mirror on the top panel. In the middle of it LED is situated. When somebody calls you, the indicator starts to blink green color. The minus of this mirror is rather obvious, it becomes soiled often and there are fingerprints on it. So you should clean the mirror almost every minute.

But with simplicity LG has rediscovered the virtue of a mobile phone being a phone rather than the handset playing host to a gaggle of sundry devices and applications that drain battery power and often fail to live up to their functional promises. The other consideration with the paring down of the body is a reduction in cost and the C1100 is currently offered as a £89.99 price tag to pay-as-you-go customers who so often get lumbered with the mutants of the phone world while the more lucrative contract customers get offered the cream of the techno crop.

Download pictures and wallpapers from the supplied CD and from the LG Mobile.com website. 16 polyphonic sound allows up to 16 notes to be played simultaneously providing accurate sounds and personalised ringtones that will be easily recognisable. The phone allows you to identify up to 7 caller groups, with up to 20 members for each group, and assign them unique ringtones and icons. This means you can tell whether it’s work or play. It is also possible to customise the phone with ringtones to fit your personality.

The saving in size by losing the camera is balanced by the saving on budget. Curiously, LG seem to have lost the front screen too. The vacant space on the front of the phone is filled with a mirror, containing a naff two-colour blinking service light. The same goes for the Orange LG C1100. While great for adjusting one’s make-up, it looks a little odd. Not to be confused with big brother from LG, the G5400, which has a multi-colour screen in the space instead. Perhaps the C1200 is a budget phone after all.

The internal display screen shows 65,536 different colors and is an STN type that is 128 by 160 pixels in size. This fantastic screen can be used to display websites thanks to the WAP 2.0 browser that enables the user to surf the internet at his or her leisure. As a result, people who own the C1200 are never left out of the loop when it comes to sports scores, weather or potential stock trading opportunities.

The LG U8110 reserves memory for up 165 text messages, 500 contacts, 10 memos, and 150 entries in both the calendar and to do list. We also found there to be about 14MB of shared memory available for audio, images, video, EMS, MMS, e-mail and Java applications. So once you’ve taken a couple of snaps and a few videos, there’s only enough room to squeeze in a couple of MP3 tracks. Unfortunately the U8110 doesn’t have an expansion slot for memory cards.
