The main feature that sets this phone apart from the TU500 is the addition of Telstra’s regional blue tick of approval. In other words, it offers a broad frequency range for providing reception in remote areas; making it the ideal choice for rural users. Somewhat incongruously, the other change appears to be a cut to internal memory This makes the TU550 far from multimedia-friendly. As with the TU500, the TU550 is expandable via microSD, with a 512MB memory card included in the sales package. Unfortunately, the SD slot is once again located beneath the battery, forcing you to deactivate your phone during insertion and removal. Equally annoying is the default setting for Internet and Bluetooth, which automatically sends downloads directly to the phone’s inbuilt memory, rather than the SD card. Usually, the whole point of a phone upgrade is to remove little quirks like this, but apparently LG couldn’t be bothered.
LG’s TU550 boasts super fast multimedia capabilities that allow consumers to access a broad range of content at lightening fast speeds and with just one click of the dedicated Telstra My Place button.
Sleek and visually appealing with its modern flip design and metallic keypad, the LG TU550 offers a range of additional features for the style savvy and technologically advanced. With a 1.3 megapixel camera, 14MB of internal memory and 1GB expandable Micro SD slot, consumers can capture, save and send picture perfect images.
