LG KF600

The LG KF600, otherwise known as the Venus, is certainly an attractive phone. I opted to buy this one because of its versatility; it's a two way touch screen, the upper half being (320x240 pixels) and the lower half (240x176 pixels), an impressive size considering the current retail price at £79.97 from Tesco. Sliding up the phone reveals a keypad for those keen on texting; I had read that touch screens weren't always favourable for heavy texters, but this phone seemed to have the best of both worlds. A modern, stylish looking phone, yet easy and practical to use too. The phone has many admirable features such as the 3 megapixel camera, the loud music player, ...  Read the complete review

The LG Venus KF600, provided to me by LG Blog, is a fairly new slider phone which is partially touchscreen. Unlike the LG Viewty, there are two screen (one of which, the InteractPad is touchscreen) and numbers and letters are inputted through a standard keypad. The phone's key feature, the InteractPad, replaces traditional navigation keys and updates depending what you want to do. When the phone is shut, no buttons are visible because it is a screen which will power off! For example, if you wish to make a call, you will have buttons such as mute, in addition to the hard connect and disconnect on the keypad, but if you wish to use it as a camera, the ...  Read the complete review

I bought this phone (in purple) because it had reasonable reviews and I found it for a good price. At first I totally loved the phone - from the delicious chocolate box purple colour, to the shiny screen, to the satisfying slide and click when I opened it, to the smooth look button panel and the funky touch screen. Unfortunately frustration soon set in. For a start the manual doesn't provide a lot of information about what the various available options mean. Trying to get the phone to do any of the wonderful things it does is mainly a case of trial and error. In regular use, the phone is not as amazing as first impressions imply. The touch screen ...  Read the complete review

I purchased this phone as an upgrade to my LG Shine phone after much searching and researching, as I liked the idea of having a touch screen interface as well as slide function and a keypad for texting. I found the battery cover to be difficult to remove but after a couple of tries it seemed to get easier, although I wouldn't exactly describe it as user friendly. The touch screen was accurate and easy to use and although it was 'only' a 3.2 mega pixel resolution the camera was suprisingly good, with flash and an auto focus function which I particularly liked as the pictures came out really well. There are all the standard functions on the phone like ...  Read the complete review
