Description: LG KG290 - Cellular phone with digital camera / digital player / FM radio - GSM

Newest Review: ... is expandable using a "microSD" card...I bought a 1gig version on eBay for around £2! Twice the cost of the phone, ... more

 ... I know.......These cards are minute - about the size of a, er, stamp corner. This means more photos/video/songs can be stored. The phone has a "voice record" function so I imagine with a large memory card you could dictate War and Peace on the train should you wish to! You might get a few odd looks... I've left the phone recording the uninspiring view from my lounge window while I write this to see how much video you can store on a 1gig card..we're up to 11 minutes so far. Files can be transferred to and ...more

Premium Review LG KG290: Cheap, functional phone which looks good! (663 words)

I was looking for a new phone...as long as it worked "as a phone" I'd be happy! Tesco online had an offer one weekend and I could get the LG KG290 with £10 airtime on "Pay as you go" for £16 with free delivery! Seemed a bargain and without going into details I managed to get further discounts which means that in the end I only paid £1 for the phone! A one-off and I was lucky with timing. A cracking start.......... What's the phone like, then? Well, I was upgrading from a bog-standard phone and this was my first mobile with a colour screen! You can tell I was going to be easily impressed! However, this truly is a great ...  Read the complete review

The Mrs and I both needed new mobile phones recently and our son recommended that we have a drive over to Tesco to look at their Pay-As-You-Go handsets. The reason being, neither of us like to spend too much on our phones though we do both need and use them. Our son suggested that Tesco had a decent range in that would suit us at very low prices so we decided to take a look. Sure enough, there were loads on offer, maybe forty or fifty and all from about £11 to £100. We both decided on the same model in the end though, the LG KG290. We decided it was a nice lightweight phone that looked appealing, had plenty of functions and was very reasonably priced ...  Read the complete review

I bought this for christmas and i am very pleased with it, the style is good and image quality is average. The MP3 is good but the volume isn't very good. The radio only picks up about a third of the stations listed, but that could just be because of where i live. The internet doesn't take to long to connect and displays some good internet style pages. The bluetooth is also good but there isn't very good memory on the phone so you would need to but an external memory card for about £10 for a 1GB. Unfortunatly you can't use themes on this phone and You can only use one of the few message tones given, although you can use whatever "sound" you like for yur ...  Read the complete review
