Cnet reviews the LG CE110: “The LG CE110 comes without a lot of features and is probably considered a “starter” handset. The camera is VGA and screen quality is pretty poor, but the LG CE110 does come with a few advanced features like Bluetooth, a speakerphone, and a wireless Web browser. Best of all, AT&T is currently offering it for free with a two-year contract. For a price like that, the LG CE110 is probably one of the better basic handsets to hit the market.

The good: The LG CE110 is a simple lightweight camera phone with some nice advanced features like instant messaging and Bluetooth. It’s also very affordable.

The bad: The phone has a lackluster screen plus disappointing photo quality. It also lacks an external camera key.

The bottom line: It’s a decent and affordable basic camera phone with some nice added features.”

The Chocolate craze has not dissipated. This is confirmed by LG’s latest release. Yep, it’s the old LG Chocolate VX8500 but now in two very intriguing colors.

Both the silver and lilac LG Chocolates will be available under different circumstances. The less “intriguing” color, the silver will be sold pay-as-you-go thru Phones4U. The lilac Chocolate will be an offering of Carphone Warehouse both as pay-as-you-go and with contract.

I’d play it safe and go for the silver one myself but lilac is such a mysterious color, I might not be able to help myself. Only in the UK.

LG Electronics unveiled the long-awaited Korean edition of its Viewty phone, which was previously launched in Europe in October.

The Viewty is LG's first high-tech category phone, in contrast to the company's popular Black Label Series of design-focused handsets with emotional appeal. Armed with a 5.0-megapixel camera with certified Schneider-Kreuznach lens and manual focus, this full touch screen camera phone is for the serious photographer. ISO800, SmartLight and Image Stabilizer help users take images in low light or while moving. However, one of the Viewty's unique features is the ability to play video at one-fourth normal speed, thanks to is high-speed 120fps video recording function.

Additionally, handwriting editing and drawing function allows consumers to add a creative touch to images directly through the 3-inch LCD touch screen. Finally, users can share their creative work by directly uploading it to the mobile edition of Cyworld, the Korean equivalent of Facebook. For the global version of the phone, the LG KU990, uploads can go directly to YouTube.

The Korean edition of the LG Viewty comes in three models of 7.2-Mbps 3G phone, respectively tailored to all three major Korean network service providers: ...

Gizmodo reviews the LG Voyager: “The LG Voyager is a powerful thing, ambitious in that it combines much of what we like about both the iPhone and the BlackBerry into a single compact system. But the LG Voyager has flaws (it’s slightly chunky, the Touchscreen isn’t very responsive) that make it hard for me to give the highest marks, especially with an after-rebate price tag of $300. 

The LG Voyager is compatible with Verizon’s V Cast Mobile TV service—provided it’s available in your area. (When we try to tune in, we get an error saying “No V Cast Mobile TV Signal.”) Chronic text-messagers will be excited about the easy-access messaging; call me old-fashioned but I only wish access to e-mail were as straightforward and integrated.

In the end you have a lot of powerful hardware working towards a not all-together clear objective with the LG Voyager. I like a lot of what I see, and to further the iPhone comparison, it would be nice to see Verizon and LG follow suit and update the LG Voyager software, but I am not sure that’s in the cards. To be worth $300 and the large sums of money you will spend each month ...

Wirefly reviews the LG CU515: “The LG CU515 is the next update to the popular LG CU500-series phones for AT&T. Now with support for AT&T Push-to-talk walkie-talkie services, a sleeker shape and more mobile entertainment options like MobiTV and Music ID, the LG CU515 is sure to be a best-seller. The handset still packs in stereo Bluetooth, a music player, broadband data speed, a 1.3 camera/camcorder and an expandable memory card slot making the LG CU515 a great mobile entertainment phone for the price.”

An announcement has come from Verizon about two new devices, the Motorola RIZR Z6c and the Red LG VX8350. The Motorola RIZR Z6c being a slider phone with a 2 inch screen, 2 megapixel camera, microSD memory slot, and stereo Bluetooth support. Thanks to CDMA and GSM radios those who own V Cast Music and Video enabled devices will be able to use Verizon’s ‘global partners’ networks for only $1.29 or $2.49 per minute, or send SMS for 25cents per message. The carrier is offering the Motorola device

LG Rumor review by MobileBurn: “The LG Rumor is that of a quality device. The slide mechanism feels solid and the materials used convey a feeling of quality. I came away from the LG Rumor being mainly impressed with its effectiveness as an e-mail and messaging device, especially considering that it’s only a pinch larger than the typical candy bar phone. Some may not be able to deal with the LG Rumor’s lack of mobile broadband, but not everybody is ready to take the plunge into that level of service. Not only that, but with a $50 rebate and a 2 year contract the handset will only set you back $79, making it a very affordable choice.

With regards to LG Rumor’s multimedia, kudos must be given to LG for supporting the larger 4 gigabyte microSD cards, and the odd placement for the dedicated camera shutter key, although unfortunate, is hardly a deal breaker. However, the lack of EV-DO functionality may send some looking at other devices with more comprehensive connectivity.

If you come to the LG Rumor wanting an assortment of ways to compose text messages and e-mails, and otherwise keep in touch, the phone will not disappoint. Therefore, I confidently ...

The LG Rumor for Sprint is a very nice messaging device that comes equipped with a spacious QWERTY keyboard and an very non-threatening price tag. Mike DeWane gives it a go and reports back to us with this full, hands-on review.

Here's a quick video intro of AT&T's recently announced LG CU515 clamshell music phone. It supports AT&T's high-speed HSDPA 3G network services, including AT&T Cellular Video and XM radio.

The LG-LB3300 has the looks of Chocolate with an big touch wheel in the middle that gives you the impression that it could double as a speaker. The specs of this new LG phone includes a 2-inch screen, 2.0 MP camera, Bluetooth A2DP and a DMB tuner. Koreans are lucky to have this phone available to them for Christmas because this is not your ordinary MP3 player phone. At the heart is the Rhapsody software that allows it to sync with a PC and play Rhapsody play lists on the go.

Rhapsody is an online Internet radio service with an innovative customizable stations that predicts the kind of music you like. The more you use Rhapsody, the better the software gets at predicting your musical needs. On board is 1GB of memory but this can be expanded to 4GB. The A2DP support is something special as well allowing two listeners at the same time. Intrigued, click the link for the press release.

Cnet reviews the Virgin Mobile LG Aloha: “The LG Aloha for Virgin Mobile is so devoid of outside features that even an external display and a volume rocker are absent. Normally, we’re not fond of flip phones that have no external displays. While we realize that its lack of a screen helps account for the Virgin Mobile LG Aloha’s low price, we still miss being able to check a caller’s identity without opening the handset. That leaves just a headset jack on the left spine, a charger port on the LG Aloha’s bottom end, and a small red light that shows through the front flap. It blinks to let you know the Virgin Mobile LG Aloha is on, but you can turn the light off if you prefer.

The good: The handset is a simple, user-friendly phone with voice dialing.

The bad: The Virgin Mobile LG Aloha’s design feels somewhat cheap, and the phone’s call quality wasn’t reliable. Also, it lacks an external display and external volume buttons.

The bottom line: The Aloha is a functional, basic phone, but there are better such handsets in Virgin Mobile’s lineup.”

Powerful dual stereo speakers, external music controls and screen, and a microSD memory port that supports up to 4 GB of memory round out this media-rich handset. Bluetooth-capable, the Red LG VX8350 supports headset, hands-free, stereo music, phone book access, basic printing, object push for vCard and vCalendar profiles and is also equipped with an easy-to-use 1.3 megapixel camera and camcorder.”

PART I: Viewty... The Phone I am conscious that I will be looking at LG Viewty as a connectivity-dependent mobile user as much as a serious photographer. Expectations will be high, naturally. I first savoured a pre-launch engineering unit a month ago, and wrote about it briefly on how it enticed me, superficially, as a 5-megapixel cameraphone with a real camera. Now it's time to take a deeper look, up-close and personal. Viewty uses a F/.8 lens certified by Schneider-Kreuznach of Germany LG

Cnet reviews the Verizon LG VX8550 Chocolate: “The Verizon LG VX8550 Chocolate is definitely a luscious-looking handset, with a design that doesn’t stray too far from the original. It retains that familiar chocolate bar shape; a rectangular chassis clad in a glossy surface and silver accents reminiscent of candy wrapping. At 3.85 inches tall by 1.87 inches wide by 0.67 inch thick, the LG VX8550 Chocolate’s a little taller and wider than the original Chocolate, but not by much. You slide the phone open by pushing the bottom of the phone, which can be done easily with one hand. The slider mechanism moves up and down easily, and the phone feels pretty solid in the hand and when held next to the ear. The phone’s glossy exterior does make it really prone to fingerprint smudges however.

The good: The Verizon LG VX8550 Chocolate has a much improved design over the original Chocolate, with a mechanical scroll wheel that has a trace motion light, a touch pad that vibrates, and an overall sleeker look. The LG VX8550 has an impressive multimedia feature set that includes a megapixel camera, a music player, and access to Verizon’s V Cast ...

Cnet reviews the LG VX8350: “The LG VX8350 is now in a smooth, pebble-like shape with soft curves all around. Measuring 3.73 inches by 1.97 inches by 0.87 inch, the LG VX8350 is a joy to hold in the hand due to its curvy design, and it’s also quite lightweight at 3.3 ounces. The overall design is far more ergonomic than its predecessor, with a much more streamlined and stylish appearance.

The good: The LG VX8350 has a stylish and curvy design, external music player controls, and a microSD card slot. Its robust feature set includes a megapixel camera, EV-DO support, stereo Bluetooth, and more. Performance was excellent as well.

The bad: The LG VX8350’s camera lacks a flash, and its stereo speakers are located in the back of the phone.

The bottom line: The handset is an excellent multimedia phone that’s compact as well as powerful.”

Addicts of Activision's Guitar Hero console game will no longer be confined to fretting their faux guitar in the living room, game room, or basement. Soon they'll be able to play from their mobile phone.

Thanks to Hands-On Mobile, a mobile games company from San Diego, I got to test my rhythm-matching mettle with Guitar Hero Mobile on a slick LG VX9400.

The first thing you'll notice about Guitar Hero Mobile is how familiar it feels; just like the console game's little cousin ought. Being able to seamlessly hop into the popular rock-star universe is no coincidence. Hands-On Mobile worked closely with Activision to import songs, graphics, characters, and gameplay from Guitar Hero editions II and III. Players of the mobile version choose from two characters, Axel Steel or Judy Nails, and at first have a nonchoice of a Les Paul guitar. Stellar guitar skills unlock three Gibsons, vetted by Gibson itself....
