LG KE800 - User Reviews

  • My Hands Set Sarch

  • Mine's screen smashed 8 months after I bought it, I thought it was due to extreme exposure to sunlight. Anyway I sent mine on warranty & it came all repaired. Even I have thrown my cell several times on conrete floor but the screen is all good.

  • I like this mobile very much. Because the location of this mobile is very beautiful. This mobile is available only in Black color. It is most popular mobile of LG in Pakistan.

  • ey people,i absolutly lv dis phne,but my screen got smashed,wer can i repair it?

  • i lov this phone!but the battery .........................sucks!!!!!!!!!

  • what is the name of the lg phone....the same shape of lgke800 platinum but the word choclate replaced with blacklabel please i want an answer...

  • i just loveeeeeeeeeeee dis fone..i jus cnt get enough of it.

  • How to use speakerphone during calling? I also unable to use keypad in Voice mall and other automated machine call. Please help me....

  • super phone but battery suck

  • I've been using this cell-phone for about 4 months. The phone is excellento... I just luv it! The graphics are so nice... way better than Samsung & Sony Ericson. MP3 player is also gr8. The only problem is with the battery, Which I must say say isn't such a big problem... it works well 4 about 4 days if u'r not using it like hell! Specially the best part is it doesn't stuck.

  • I have been using this phone for 1,5 year and although it has problems I still love it. The microphone stopped working properly and it's great to have the opportunity to send it somewhere where it will be fixed, hopefully:D (free guarantee for 2 years) I miss my chocolate and I hope I can continue using it for a long time after I have got it back:) There are a lot of drawbacks which come along with that phone, but it depends on the durability of the phone and how you take care of it. Mine is a piece of gold compared to the one which was owned by my friend. And I've heard a lot of bad things from other people, too. Everyone says that they wouldn't recommend it at all, but in my opinion, if you have some extra money (haha) and you are really interested in this phone, then you should try it. Maybe you're lucky and get the good one:P But if your aim is to get quality instead of quantity, then I wouldn't recommend it. When my chocolate stoppes working for good, I won't buy LG anymore. My first choice would be Nokia, That's the quality! But still, Chocolate is my baby as long as I can use it and it is the most beautiful phone I have ever seen:) (L)

  • Ok, i have this phone for more then a year now. Phone is excellent in every way. If you are normal user, everything is good, and you will be happy whit it. There is one problem that was annoying me to hell and back, i have a small business and i wonted to Sync this phone to Outlook, now to be clear this phone dose not do this easy, and i just now discovered how to do this (and now i am happy like crazy :D ). Solution is: 1.) you need to download LG PC Suite 2 Link to it: Now i know this is a torrent, but i have use this one, and it is working for me, i don't wont to give you some bs link that maybe will not work, and then some one smart will tell how i am bs. So if you dont like torrent and you are scared of viruses google LG PC Suite 2. 2.)Now, first install "LG PC Suite 2".(you are doing this because there is a driver on it that works whit even windows7 x64 system, that i am using now, so basically in it is a driver that actually works). After that you need to install "LG GSM Sync" (you get that in the box whit your mobile phone when you have bought it (small cd)). Install it, but when installation ask you to install driver (i think it say modem driver) say no and finish. You are installing this because KE800 works only whit that program to be able to sync. 3.)Now to sync. Connect KE800 on usb cable and run "LG GSM Sync", when the screen show it self first you need to click on icon of calendar, and then on the Connect icon (what i have found is that it is best to connect usb cable directly to comp. and not to use extension cable, but only the one you get in the box, and then it works whit no problems) Now you can copy data from phone to Mobile Sync, and you can import data from outlook to it and then to the phone. But you can't export data to outlook. 4.)Well, luckily for you i know how you can (and now if there is some one smart out there that will say i know that, WHERE THE FRACK WERE YOU ALL THIS TIME). So in "LG GSM Sync" go to File > Export (shortcut press Alt, press f, press e ) press find file to select where you will save data (desktop is the best), name your file, click save, and then next, on the next screen select Tab, and click Finish. Now go to desktop and rename the extension of the file you just created (it will have extension .tab), you need to change (rename it) to .txt . You will be asked if you are sure that you wont to do that, select Yes. Now open Outlook (im using 2007) Go File > Import and Export > Import from another program or file (select it and click Next)> scroll down to Tab Separated Values (Windows) (select it and click Next) > Now on the new screen under Files to import click brows, find your file on desktop, select it and click Open, you have options to Replace current data in outlook, Allow duplicate, or not import duplicates. I recommend Allow duplicates, it is very easy to delete data you don't need any more in outlook, click Next > on this screen select Contacts and click Next. Now data will be sync. And this would be it. First time it is a pain in the arss, but in essence this is like 5 steps procedure, and you will have all your data sync, and backuped. If it dose not work for you, this is step by step manual that i have typed here, i really can help you more. This is how i make my KE800 to Sync.

  • i have a problem with my ke800 after i maked it reset with this code 2945#*# now my phone don't wana start!!! have you anathor code to reste LG KE800!! THX--

  • Hey everyone. First and foremost, I had and still do have this phone for a little over a year now. I have gotten so much attention from people. They just can't keep their smudging fingers off my phone. They absolutely love and so do I. In all fairness, the phone is beautiful. For the first couple weeks I had sweaty palms using it. Anyways. Its beautiful but impractical. I mean the features are there, but they don't really work for me. They're not practical. Using the phone itself is a joy. It makes really cool sounds. Sometimes I find myself just pressing and scrolling through the menu just to hear the sounds the phone makes and see all the sophisication of the menu and stuff. Oh. Back to the features. Terrible battery life right of the top. Maybe that's why I got an extra battery with my (it cam ewith the phone). Oh the phone box looks amazing. I still have mine. It looks real expensive. Yeah. Um. Battery suffers. There's practically no speaker phone, its too low. Pains me to use it so I forget about it. Flash? Turn it on and the light stays on whether or not u take a pic. Sometimes I use it as a convenient flash light cause it just stays on. I have to shout to the persons with whom I'm conversing for them to hear me. That's the thing that pains me most about the phone. Pain, pain, pain. I get real upset with it because of that. Pics come out real nice on my pc, dont look so good on the phone itself. The voice recorder thingy is another pain. I literally have to put the phone against my ear to hear what I recoreded...almost like the so called speaker phone. I have to put the phone quite close to my ear to hear it (I suffer no hearing impairment). I believe this totally defeats the purpose. Well there are a couple of other itty bitty things. I pay much attention to detail, but I'm rational so I believe those details are a bit way off. These are the only pains I have wit the phone. Aprt from them (and the other minute short comings) the phone is great. Would recommend it to someone who loves attention, or likes to have great looking things, someone who has taste and style and won't get upset when the battery dies at mid-day after getting a couple long calls and taking a few pics because the battery sucks (travel with the spare to solve this prob) or won't get upset because of the impracticallity of the so called that sealed the deal and convinced you that this phone is all beauty with just as much features. All in all, Unparalleled beauty.... Hell YES!!!, Features...YES, Practicallity...NO!-resolutely. Ps. Signal isn't all that, but it works for me...most of the time.

  • I bought this one, a year a go, had been workin�perfect,probably I haven�t very carefull sharing files PC-phone, and virus make it slow... even I�ve let drop down in to a little lake accidently, I take out very quick, nothing happen�just got dirty, i think is a good one!!!

  • And for the ones saying battery life is ridiculous.. It isn't THAT bad... I very oftenly had to empty my message box before I had to charge the phone's battery, so you can see my use of the phone and how the battery was ok (just not good)... Maybe you hear a lot of music, or talk a lot, or even spend most of the time going up and down on the menu just for fun, I don't know. But I do know that mine SURELY lasted longer than a lousy day or two, even with the phone being on 24/7.

  • I had this phone for 14 months, and everything said on this review is true. Whenever I was on a call with someone, there were a lot of background noises, and sometimes, due to the wind, I couldn't even hear the other person speaking. As for the software, it could really be smarter, since it hasn't many customizing menu and shortcut options, and navigating through files can be a pain when in a hurry. There is also that browser shortcut, which I believe was misplaced, and I kept touching it unintentionaly, thus having to wait to turn it off and start over whatever I was doing. However, I never had an hardware problem. The battery falls short sometimes, but nothing too serious. About the sensor keypad, although it really did felt strange in the beggining, worked just fine in my hands a few days later. The final problem that makes me say that I "had" this phone was caused by me.. :S So, being it very pretty, and being its flaws bearable, I must say it is not a bad phone.. I can almost recommend it! (just because it is sooo cool :P) I miss my chocolate.. lol

  • i Bought these phone in july 2008 now the phone is terrible the screen is blank and freezing i would not recommend anybody to buy these phone .the design is beatifull but the features are bad.

  • i had a terrible experience with this phone. this is the worst phone i ever had. i got "phoebia" with LG phones after my experience with this LG chocolate.

  • Had this phone for exactly a year. Crapped out on me. It's a beautiful phone and the interface is great... but the reception was terrible and the touch page wasn't too user-friendly. Oh, and it died on me completely in a year. Would not recommend it.

  • Yea, the battery life is ridiculous. my battery actually totally knocked out on me.how long did yours battery life last? mine was approximately 1-2 days

  • have you seen the danny robot dance feature on this phone

  • great phone small and stylish not the best signal but dont complain my brother has an iphone and its worse for signal does everything u need and is the ultimate eyecatcher!

  • Do not buy this phone if you are in the market for a phone. Please look away from this KE800. Signal is horrible, the only way to get half descent signal is in the middle of a football field and make sure it's not a dome. The battery is weak.

  • I'm goin' to buy a new handphone..And truely I love it..But after I read all opinions',I think SE s500i is better than this even S500i's keys easily cracks..anyhow,I love the design!

  • This phone really sucks I bought it at December and its broken 1 year later. I bought my Razr V3 for 20$ and it lasted for 2 years. The phone started having problems 9 months later, at first the touching pad was messing up, then the screen started to go blinking and at last the screen dosen't even show anything at all. When I brought the phone to get it fix it will cost me 60$ so I mind as well get a new one since the phone only cost $240. Now the next phone I'm plaanning to buy is the Sony Ericson P1 that phone looks pretty cool.

  • I bought my ke800 in Singapore but lives in Denmark - anyone know if it is possible to change language into danish - the dealer says no!

  • i was just wondering wether the bluetooth connection is fast because on the lg chocolate it was extremely sloooooooooooooow????????????????????

  • i have no problem w my phone. it was great tho. altho theres a few bad and d good sides. but overall i can say its a sexy phone phone especially wen its a lady using it. =)

  • i bought the platinum one and now i bought the n95 8gb and the saphire one and i am only 10 years old

  • I've had this phone for almost 8 months now and it hasn't given me any problems. I love the sleek designs. It very unique and alot of people around me admire it. picture quality is very nice! MP3 works well when i plug it in my car! OVERALL: 10

  • this phone really suck. soemtime is turn off itself. if i where u, i wouldn't buy the phone at all. i hate mine so much i throw it in the wood

  • good phone i cannot have usb to it how i chang rington no have in list set as rington

  • it has given me problems the first day i brought it i prefer my 3310 nokia

  • My boyfriend got me this phone in november and it was broken by february. At first I was mad about it, but after a few months became veeeery dissapointed. It started with the touch pannel, sometimes it just wouldn't work and a few weeks later the screen started blinking until it stoped showing the picture at all. After just two months using it, it was completely out of service. I wouldn't suggest buyng it, because as I see, I'm not the only one having this problem and you never know if you'll get lucky with this phone or not.

  • J can't conect my mobile with my computer please help me J like to put my pictures from my mobile to my computer

  • I would also like to receive e mails via my phone but since im not used to smart phones can you help me. The thing is i was not interested in smart phons this is my firstborn and i love her.

  • I like this model so much but now i'm trying to connect internet with my network povider but it doesn't allow me to add name of WAP Profile. can you help me to solve this problem?

  • this phone is the most coolest phone i ever saw the disign is most smartest disign i ever saw who ever came up with this design is a geanius!!!!!!!

  • i really like the style of the phone but my only problem is that you should be able to use mp2 ringtones as a message tone that sucks. also the whole phone should be touch screen not jus the top. one more thing please what about incomimg names and picture id.othe wise cool phone,

  • pls. let me know how to unlock my touchpad. my mobile touchpad key r not workable , any one can help ? to unlock my lg ke800 touchpad.........write me [email protected]

  • I've got this for like approx half a year i beleive and it's really good actually. The thing is i'm just a high school kid so i don't go hard core on it so it does exactly what i want with not much problems at all.

  • I like the phone its Beautiful but what i HATE about it is that for EXAMPLE when the Radio is on u cant check your messages or seach the contacts, its likeu cant open another folder or whatever if the other one is open.Mine came with the memory card but i cant install music in it and if i use the USB cable to istall music it shows on the PC thatits installed in the phone but once i disconnect the Music is not there.In the case of a battery i dont wanna comment cause im just tired of charging my phone every now and then.I dont encourage people to buy it .

  • if someone is using this phone like going to the hell...coz it's so bad ..coz we have to restart when the network is out..really bad...i hate my ke 800.... bad FOR LG

  • Its cool from the retail's shelf. Buy it you have bought it you got a chunk of useless garget. The talk time is less than 12hours and the battery is off. You move around town you need a charger with you. Do not buy this phone if you are a traveller. Cde. Lee Botswana

  • regarding conversation it depends on operators. If you use operator with not so stable signal it would be problem for you to heat your caller.

  • for SMS you may use only 4 proposed melodies. for ringtones you may use any you have or stored.

  • i like it/ I am man and find it respected to use. Some things requires special understanding which is different to common sliders. Battery lives for 3days with around 1hour calling during these days and using radio + alarm. Find it ok. Pretty nice body of slider. One of the best sliders i have e ver used. One thing is difficult for me - you can't listen music,radio and in back mode. By the way the MP3 player is perfect. Wen you would like to copy music from your PC don't try to create new folder - - place your music in existant folder. on oter hand your created folders invisable.

  • Hi, can anybody out there tell me how do I get this phone when it rings to show me the names of the caller and not just the number. Otherwise a very nice phone.

  • well some questions 4 those who has this phone already... cant u just buy a better batery that last longer...?? or it doesnt work that way?? and the call signal is bad?? cant really believe that... dont they suppose to have tested the phone b4 exposing it to sail??

  • I'm planning on getting this phone around Valentine's DAy for my mom... Can anyone tell me the pro's & con's of this device. I would prefer it to be able to use Bluetooth to transfer images, ringtones, and stuff & stereo Bluetooth. As long as it can do that I'm fine. Also, can any MP3 be used as a ringtone and/or text message ringer?

  • how do i get to set my ringtones to something other than the defaults sounds

  • i've had the LG for about 3 months. No major damages but a few scatches. i wouldn't recommend this phone. it randomly broke down on me. the screen doesn't work and it goes black and white. FOr those who say this phone is awesome. i wonder how long you guys have actually had this phone because when i first got it, i too loved it. now i think it's completely worthless

  • has anyone in canada tried this phone? supposedly there is a NA version out with 850 reception (model ME830) much thanks.

  • To be honest, I don't recommend it to anybody, I can say it has a noticeable poor communication quality, no speakers while talking, poor structure regarding phonebook "contacts" battary remains only for less than 24 hours! MY ADVISE: DO NOT BUY IT...

  • this suck really suck.. it dosen't work as good as you think is it..i hate it. i can't even hear anyone talking when i talk to them. and the color come off so easy. i don't think anyone should buy this phone it suck and it a waste of money..i hate it.

  • No, it isn't possible to use other ringtone for messages!

  • A very good mobile

  • Very pretty phone excellent music quality.

  • can you, please, tell me is it possible to use your own ringtone for messages beside four given. thanks

  • This product is so absolutly... USELESS. It hangs, it wont charge. Needs restarting often. Just a complete disaster. Consider two cans and a string instead.

  • i love LG CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!!! i love it!!!!!! so fine and sexy .. it`s awesome.

  • what's included in the package? charger, battery, manual, usb cable, cd... what else? is there a remote with 3.5mm plug in? thanks.

  • Where can i found new firmware?

  • Very Very sexy and Cool..............Also Handsome and Cuteeeeeeeeeeeee

  • p.s. Using it with TMobile USA -- no problems with network.

  • costs ~200 phone looks a lot better in life than on picture. looks really expensive. All functions are fine. However battery only lasts a day

  • OMG I CNT WAIT TILL I GET MY FONE .. i just ordered it a few days ago through a friend and i absolutly cant wait.. i am usually a sonyeicsson kind of guy but i alwayskinda wanted a touch fone .. well its should be here in a week n a half and i cnt wait ok bye

  • Crap. Every time you touch it it marks, every time it rings it locks up and have to take battery off to reboot it. Spends more time locked than working will take it back and get my money. I HATE THIS PHONE

  • So this phone will work well on the AT&T network, in terms of reception and call quality?

  • I really love this phone, I have the gold. stop talking shit about it, it's working fine with Cingular and t-mobile even oversea so don't say anything if you just don't like it. the design is really pretty too.

  • this ophone suck as hell.i got this phone for one month and it don't even work good. i hate it. you can't even call anyone.if you have AT&T it doesn't work good but if u have T-Moilbe it work ok. if anyone wat to buy i don't think u should even buy it. it a suck phone..

  • How well does the phone operate in the US? How is signal reception, call quality, etc. on the phone? I hear that it lacks the 850 band which is used in conjunction with the 1900 band in the US.

  • The mp3 player doesnt read the music in the memori card only the music in the phone memory! Can anyone use the multplishoot feature? i cant don t know why!!

  • This phone looks very appealing but the battery life is a total turn off...

  • Hi. Could someone tell to me if the phone can be slide-down just to hear the radio or the mp3? Thanks a lot.

  • I recently got a ke800 its really a cute phone but the battery life is no good the manual comes in every other language apart from english.......come on where you ever see that happen......i've been trying to get an english manual or even get the one translated so if there is any site or person that has information let me know

  • I had this phone for about an a week, then I give it to my sister. It`s not difficult to use, it`s very nice and charming, and it has a lot of fancy things. About the controls, the bad thing is that you must to use it with dry hands. When you whant to make anything you have to be very careful. It`s get dirty very easy, and can take your eyes out.If you need phone-do not take this one. If you want just a thing, that has a telephony get it!

  • Hi Can some1 tell me if it possible to install Document viewer ?? (like KE970 have) THX

  • I just received the ke800 gold and I think it is an absolutely beautiful phone, I was kind of sceptical about getting it because of other peoples opinions about the controls being difficult to use and all of that but i find it very user friendly and it works like a charm. My only fault is the incoming call volume, you can hardly hear the person on the next end of the call and 5 is the highest for the volume, calls with the earphones seem to help abit, but besides that its a beautiful phone and YOU WILL LOVE IT!

  • i think this fone is for everyone who wants to try it...but it KINDA looks girly

  • does anyone know whats the bigger memory card this phone supports?

  • I do not see why such a good phone should have that much of a bad battery life. Other than that i is really good

  • this phone isn't good. i had it for about a month and the screen was becoming black-white and even pink. i am not satisfied from this phone it didnt deserve its money

  • i like this phone but is it a bit girly 4 a lad?

  • is this phone any good please email me if not ...thanks

  • I actually like the white line thingy. It help distinguish it as LG Chocolate Platinum and not just LG Chocolate. But I don't like how the creators had the word "Chocolate" imprinted on.

  • how can i install applications and games on KE800 ? please tell me. If u can install any , please also tell me the site u download it from . I don't have any WAP here . so i can just install them from the pc. When i bought the phone from singapore , the CD doesn't have LG Contents Bank . What about yours? Is there LG Contents Bank in your CD? Thanks

  • this phone should not have the white thing which says choclate it ruins the shape of the beautiful mobile.

  • Within two months of purchasing from Bangkok ,phone is not working , the feather touch is out of order. Please advise where i can repair the set. tks/rgds

  • I have had the phone for 2 weeks and i really really love it. i wasn't sure if i should of moved away fron the nokia brand but im glad i did. and how ever said this is just a lades phone its not so dont let that change your decision.

  • My choco is perfect!!!!!! I don't know what to say to those who really don't like it. Maybe i was lucky and my phone don't have a problem. The only bad think is that the flash is not as good as i believed at first. Anyway i adore it!!!!!! It is perfect and stylist!!

  • dissapointed with this phone breaks easily speakers not very well very slow camera and very slow picture veiwing mines already in for repairs and ive only had it 2 months! not worth getting!

  • lg makers should learn from other phone maker this phone was suppose to gold hit bluetooth and infra red , external mem should be up to 2gb hotswaperble,3gp all am saying is let your best phones compete with the best dont put cost first eg nokia N95 is what ke800 should be competing with.

  • plz suggest me dat phone is worth enough to buy ......

  • MP# function very gay. Doesn't see the micro sd card if you go into mp3 player can only select song by going to external memory and then you have to play one song at a time

  • this is a very nice phone.

  • To those that say this model looks more masculine!.... well sure a thought is conceptual and never really actualised realisation with all. Bacically a masculine characteristics are angular and more defined. But the upper level design, the much sleeker slide and the choice of colours overrules what the guys at gsmarena, thought made this more applealing to males. In real life this model appears more feminine inclined than the earlier model lol! Guys who better get a complete man's fon and stop fidgeting with this girly toy

  • Hi guys! I love this phone and will be buying one! Here r few questions 1)Is speaker loud? 2)Mp3 player cant be minimized? 3)Camera is worse than k750, is it true? 4)Any remote provided? Thx alot and have a pleasant day!

  • What are the real dimensions and weight for this phone? i have seen different sizes and weights of this phone elsewhere~~

  • fon looks real hot

  • can anyone please tell me what type of flash do the lg phones use?

  • Nothing to say to that some people are angry with this phone, i would also be if I have just bought a ordinary LG KG800 and now see the spec. on this LG KE800 model. Far better display. better sliding mechanisme. A lot nicer and more masculin design. A hole lot better camera with hole 2 mpix. and with auto fokus, damn... And the chance to put memory card in, damn'that dos a lot for at phone. So u can blame people with the ordinary LG KG800 that the dont fine this phone very amusing. The spec. on the platinium and the shine is about the same.

  • I've currently got a motorla now. I have been with them for about two years now. Although i agree that motorola's are rubbish. It's not for the same reasons. The phones i have had on motorola are pretty much indestrucable [[And i have the skinny phones]]. The software on motorolas [[especially bluetooth]] isn't user friendly. Anywho. LG only has a bad name in the phone industry because it's older models weren't as up to date as others. But they are really comming through with their Black Label series. Aaron.

  • Security code for this phone anyone please?!

  • It has a very glamorous and stunning design! Btw, how many sms can this phone store?

  • It seems nice and all, so if you really think it's soo bad would you mind putting some evidence behind your words because i'm with aron there it does make you look silly Ps, been with motorola for the most of my life it's actually really good and i do mean features as well

  • lg make some of the worst hansets on the market the only company worse than lg is motorola both companies make unreliable phone that break down with the slightest of things

  • To the guy below.. Did you read the review this phone got from these guys? They loved it, more or less. If it was badly made, or the worst thing on the market for the price.. I'm sure it would have been mentioned somewhere in their review. Just read [[reliable]] reviews before you shout your mouth off about things you don't know about. Makes you look silly. Aaron

  • i was seriously considering buying this phone then i saw what can only be described as the thing. its huge and terribly made its one of the worst phone on the market for the price. one word to discribe this phone CRAP

  • ok laaaahhhhh. nt bad. cm up with a better model lah

  • does the lg ke800 have a locking device that can stop people looking at your texts?

  • Is the LG KE800 Platinum a good phone? When will it be available in South Africa?

  • wow!!! dude this phone is so awesome!!!!... i will keep this phone forever and always i don't need anything else. THANK YOU GUYS!!!

  • Im looking for the model that has BLACKLABEL written on it not CHOCOLATE, I think its the series 2 version but im not to sure. Can i buy it in australia or oversea's..

  • does it come in gold if so were can i look it at it??????

  • P.S Does anybody think the Shine is better than this phone, and why? = )

  • =,( Well.. I think i'm still going to get this phone.. I might put some sort of sticker over it. Haha. Thanks for your help, though. = D Aaron.

  • Attempting to remove the writing on the front will most certainly damage the phone since the characters are more or less engraved in the front platinum strip. Not advisable I'm affraid! :-(

  • Oh nooo! = ( The writing completely ruins the whole thing for me.. Does anyone know of a way i could remove the writing [[without runing the whole look of the phone]] ? Thanks = ) Aaron.

  • Phone will be delivered with "Chocolate" writing on the front metal strip. What you see is what you get...

  • Does the actual handset of this phone come with the writing on the platinum strip? Please could someone who has seen one of these phones, or owns one please reply? Thankyou = ) Aaron.

  • The appearance is splendid but the features lag. A toy phone you wouldn't make it your primary.

  • Tumza, LG DOES have a 3G chocolate, it is called the KU800, and is on GSMArena...

  • Very Nice But i Thought LG Was Going 2Come Up With A Chocolate 3G Phone, It's Not All About The Nice Parts Of The Phone , It's All About The Futures !!!

  • wow this phone looks nice but yall are talking about how the MP3 isn't good or whatever I'm trying to find a good phone can anybody help me??????

  • i think KE 800 is preti cool.but no 3g.buttons won't let u type in de darkness ,haiiiii....anyway when is it coming to South Africa.

  • hello i just bought the lg ke800 but now this is bothering the volume of the ringtones i have mp3 as tone i have ste it one volume 5 the highest but still whan someones calls me it starts from low to highh i dont want this i want it must play direct high loud volume 5...i have put my profile also on loud.. can someone tell me about this?

  • Much improved over original Chocolate - touch screen almost perfect, illumination fine in all lighting conditions. MP3 quality very good (for a phone) - operability should be improved though. On the downside Bluetooth compatability still poor with car kits.

  • The phone is really good, and its good to see LG changed the phone from the test unit (review) to the final one. and added backlight buttons and have improved the camera speeds. However my camera takes pictures with a bit grainy effect to it This only happens after the camera has taken the picture. I have played around with all the settings and cannot change it. Is anyone else having problems?

  • oink oink im a piggy sanp!!!!!!this fone is ugly and they recked the original chocolate (almost as ugly and as crappy as my awful e900 the camera`s 17mpixel ha ha its a 8 way slide u r all jealous ha ha ha im thick i bought my fone 4 about 12p !!!!!!

  • I cant see the letters on the Keypad in the dark,when i want to type and send an sms.The front panel lights up,but not the panel where the numbers and letters are. Is there any way?

  • im a fool ...i just got w850i n i ha fallen in love wid dis 1!!!! any1 willing 2 swap????????????plz

  • this phone is toooo coool sexy.. any one telll me about mp3 sound

  • emily is right ... they should make a white KE800 yeah.....stupid...

  • Cool phone. Only downside for me would be that the unit converter hasn't got the same as the KG800. Anybody who knows if you can downloade a better unit converter for this phone? I would especially miss the clothes and shoe converter.

  • omg, this phone really got me high man. freaking nice!!!! with the functions it offers! simply superb. wonder when is it coming out in spore

  • its really terrible .4 me it went down in 1 month.pls users looks r deceptive.

  • i have the LG KG 800 , i must say that it's not bad but only one thing that i didn't like it is no light in numbers if you want to dial or right message in night,,so it's a big probleme. but it's still nice any more

  • It's available in Denmark, with some stores, not all ;) It look like a great phone. I want one!

  • this phone came out on the 22 jan in the uk

  • terrible battery - only lasts one day!

  • this phone orgasm me really !!!!!!!!

  • hey guys, it said that the phone is gonna be in CDMA? whats that suppose to mean????????????????????????????????????

  • If the make a white version I'll probably cave and buy it.

  • Why only black?

  • i can not wait so long!!!!!!i am tired!lg please do your worck faster!!!!!you will lost one more cystomer!

  • I have been waiting for them to release the phone but they keep on delaying it. I aint going to wait anymore. So today i got myself a brand new Sony Ericsson and im so happy with it.. LG you just lost a customer!

  • i dont know if is worthe it to buy it

  • Black Label series is LG's classification for their high end phone, just like Nokia's N Series. Anyway, Chocolate are going to be released in 3 new color, Maroon Red, White and Pink. I've been crazy waiting for the maroon one.

  • how much is it, in us dollar?

  • has anyone heard that ths phone,and all other chocolate, are called black label. i read that somewhere and don't know if it is true...

  • pdwT: called the dealerz in my country they said in 2weekzz

  • MsNF Whence such information?

  • Itz Comin out in about 2 weekz! :)

  • haha u just have no style and cant afford it lol. its ok. u can hate.

  • just a thought bt perhaps i dnt hav it bcos i dnt want it, hmm.. mind-boggler

  • haha i like how ppl try to judge the phone - u dont even have it lol

  • lol act this phone is pretty cool. i love the sliding motion! much better LG phone

  • it looks a little bit effeminate... and with a name like 'chocolat' (wth tht whole sexy french accent thing) its seems obvious thts its marketed for a more female market. bt 4 guys tht want it; its ok nobody will judge u o yeah n i hear it cms wth a pink dress 2

  • i bought this in finland (land of Nokia!!) yesterday!! 384 euros. beautiful but difficult to use!! for example it is always dark the screen I mean een u don't use it so u can't easily see if someone rang! but beutiful..

  • wat wil happen wen u put it in ur pocket? it may be destroyed so if i wre u buy nokia n93 haha joke it was just my fone and it's cooooooooooooool. but u can lock it ryt?just lyk all the other fones. thank you

  • who wats this phone i know were t o order it from dont say i never do antything 4 u all

  • opa this phone is able in Sweden, :O and it has been for a quite long time , Go to siba.se and u will find it there, under MOBILTELEFONI > LG. so thats it ;)

  • I just spoke to LG's sales department. Whats going to happen is that this phone will come out on Valentines day (February) in the US, and will be associated with Verizon Wireless. Sorry for my inaccurate information earlier.

  • Yes, I reported that it would be out in 10day from that day I posted however, LG had a few problems with packaging and other things related to the phone which has postponed the launch of the New LG Chocolate to the 1st week of 2007. Hopefully the phone will be out around the world from January 1st or anytime in the first week of January. As soon as the phone hit's stores anywhere around the world I will inform it here so that everyone will know its available. Thank you.

  • Well the use LG said it woud be available 10 days from the 18th Dec, its now the 28th and still nothin. So where is it?

  • Hi, i have the KG800 and was wondering how to set up the picture ID when someone calls... ive taken pictures with the phone and it keeps saying that the phonebook pictures is empty so im not sure where to get the pic's from ..

  • LG, why dont you listen to the people who buy your phones. The phone internal workings on the 8380 was great! I have 2 phones Motorola and LG8380 i preferr to use the 8380 but your Designer needs a new start. Your last 10 design of mobiles stinks! The look stinks! Try to make the Motorola design look and keep the internal workings of the 8380. Then you have a perfect phone to improve on. graham

  • will it be a phone for women?

  • it is so good looking although the functions are very pour, nothing for a handy freak but i love it very much

  • well i used it for a day only and its definitely for the masculine dudes...manageable but not for phone fanatics

  • This phone should be out in 10days from today in most parts of the world. Good day.

  • I have tested the phone. Nice looks - bad functionality, esp when it comes to MP3. The built in player can only find files stored on the phone. To play from memorycard, you have to browse for the files and open then one by one !!!??? You can't make playlists, and internal memory is only 60 MB. This stinks.

  • i like the phon and i love it i want to bye it

  • for nice pics and other testing site www.newmobile.nl

  • woooow i got the ke800 and i love it makes me feel so gooooood this phone is so cool i love it i ordered it off the net now i would tell u what it is but i wont cuz i just wanna b the only 1 who ha it 4 now maybe all tell u when i get board off it ok chow my lil dumplins

  • fu**ing stylish phone..I want it..

  • i love this phone and it is my dream phone.It is really fascinating and i sure i want to buy it.Hope that i can buy it on the net.

  • cant wait! i want the phone now :(

  • When is the release date is for this phone ????? Is it available in the United Kingdom ????? PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE REPLY... Thanks

  • ive got the kg800 im away to get the ke800. is the bluetooth quicker?

  • i was thinking about getting the kg800 but since i saw this one, i'm getting one for sure. seriously, 2mp, memory slot card! this phone is gonna be the bomb ! well i hope so. it better come to montreal fast!! cause i was it before xmas. the only thing that buggs be is that there's no infrared port..

  • From what i read the KE800 will be avaible in December (some weeks from when it was anounced in october) did i read it has a touch-screen? i know it has touchbuttons but touch-screen? Do you think KE800 will be more reliable than KG800, because i realy like this phone. For me is either KG/ke800 or Razr maxx have to decide

  • Hello friends i am back again with a simply sparkling review of this stunning little gadget, ohhhhh it makes me feel like a natural woman with its sleek and sexy design. Ohhhhhh it makes me weak at the knees. Everybody dont buy this phone because its mine, mine i tell you, your not getting it you dirty commoners,,,and if anyone buys it you are a filthy swine...i bid you good day!

  • i think this phone is the best one LG have brought out so far! i'm glad it's got that 2mp camera now 1.3 mp isn't to great i am defenitaly buying this phone when it comes out can any one tell me when it is out in UK shops!! xxx

  • to TS{n, HA HA HA!, Eat your heart out! you cannot stop the force of destiny to be no. 1. Sorry! stay calm. KE 800 will rock the mobile world.

  • the choco thing looks crap the batery sux! wake up LG !!!!!

  • i love chocolate and now platinum is super great keep it up LG

  • Whoa i luv it its soooooo stylish i want it! I want it! i want it! its looks sooooo awesome!!!!

  • its a a good phone

  • look at this beautiful phone!!! man!! i love this thing!! it has everything that original chocolate was missing!!! 2.0 mega pixel MEMORY CARD!!! (thats a biggie) FM RADIO!! (WOW!!!) i wish i can get this one.. i kinda like the gold version better though haha looks pimping with the gold version

  • bad phone , unstable UI & no card slot Huge disadvantage.

  • Must be 9mm thin?! This phone is a garbage enough due to its stupid touch screan and small battery size. It's a shame but even with my favorite Nokia I can't find a one normal handseat today. The closest ones are 6125, 6126 models, but Nokia has channged the user interface on those ones (small size letters, unremovable themes, plus a little ilogical menu structure, and on top of that small design, followed by small battery which is useless if you use a bluetooth). SHAME, SHAME, SHAME, SHAME!

  • This phone will rock the mobile world with its 2 megapixel cam having equipped with Schneider-Kreuznach lens. Forget Carl Zeiss optics because it would be a second rate. SCHNEIDER-KREUZNACH OPTICS will be the trend. Go LG.

  • im back guys!!i think this fone is the best of all LG phones ever made!!! hi to Leona TAmpoc, Rudney Cauguiran!!love you guys!!

  • hi guys... this fone is too damn good foh me... is it available here in the Philippines coz if it is.. i'ma buy one for ma self...hi to ol ma hommies out there in Charity Campaign!! We can do this.. peace ya ol!!

  • its still a brick, its thicker than the KG and its proper square??????, and why does it have that big novelty chunk'o'metal on the front of it, its just not on....burn it!!!

  • beautiful phone.. perfect design!

  • hello the LG KE800 serise is One of thr best designed in mobile phone

  • The LGKE800 is a ofully beauty mobile phone please send this product to iran & tabriz City

  • I have this phone here in Brazil... He's excelent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

  • i work for o2, we discontinued it for faulty software....i've got the kg800, and its good, just tends to run slowly and act up when memory is nearly full

  • i work for vodafone and can honestly say i have never had to or seen a single kg800 replaced due to tuch screen functions or anything else goign wrong with them

  • that thing is diabolical, look at the state of it....its KG800 brick....proper mess, burn it

  • wait a minute, why'd the specs change? i thought this was supposed to be like 9mm thin? like one of the samsung Ultra Series phones? now gsmarena says it's almost 17mm thick? what happened?

  • I work with mobiles and we do a ridiculous amount of returns for touch screen handsets, esp the KG800. For functionality reasons touchscreens should be scrapped imho, until the technology is perfected. This phone will have the same problems as the other LG, i guarantee it. And its not even that good.

  • don't you guys think this phone really do look like a box of chocolate? it's so... square, it does look like a chocolate. I prefer the one before this

  • great phone top designe and features

  • in my opinion this's the best mobile in world, because it's present a good features and it's has the best design . this phone teaches others companies to make better phones. The design is class

  • When will LG listen to you & I, guess never but we are the people buying there phones. The best phone they made was U8380 (flip phone) I just got offered a free Motorola raz a good loking phone but No where as good as LG U8380. I can't record voices on Motorola while on the phone. 8380 Its great when you havent got a pen & paper, Simply record phone or address. To edit photos its easy, When multi messaging 8380 better. The list goes on & on. LG i know why you don't listen to the public. You need to improve the look of your phones your going off the rails with the last 5 phones you brought out. A concern consumer.

  • Ray, where did you get your info? How come you said that there is only 60mb available for the user? This phone got everything design, functionality, fashion and fun.

  • 256MB TOTAL space, but only 60MB avaliable to user? mmm, call me crazy, but that definately sounds like a DOWNgrade from the original chocolate. Yes, it does have Memory card support, but unless they throw one in the box... mmm, thats disappointing.

  • In korea, they use 24k gold and they would help u carve watever u wan on the golden band.

  • do yoo hav it in pink ? xxx

  • yep they have, n80, 8800. and the black 7360 looks better than this for my taste. its harsh to critice design since beaty its in the eyes of the person. what beatiful to you isn't for others.

  • does it have speakerphone as i know the KG800 doesnt and thats one thing i really miss about the phone

  • does the key still have that neat design on it? or is it just one colour now

  • come on guys LG make their phones based on style... not great camers ect... the pone looks great in my opinion... just that chocolate silver plate on the front aint to good...

  • nokia, producing better looking phones?! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! oh so funny... i needed that good laugh, thanks ;-)

  • really cooooooool one

  • its a TFT display with a QVGA resolution

  • no qvga.... ??? can the guy down here even read??? i think it says pretty legible that it has one and 3mp cam its not a must in a phone. again if u like taking pictures seriously, a 2mp canon take better pics than any 3mp phone in the market.

  • Regardless of "it is a good phone, a bad phone, no good camera, etc." . The design is simply superb. It really makes you take in consideration this phone, as it teaches a lesson to other manufacturares in matter of looks.

  • No QVGA screen No 3 mega cam and not even available yet, where u gonna put samsung unltra D900? or same thickness with better features ultra D830? they are available for quite a long time. And I agree that silver bar with chocolate words are meant to be " only for kid". horrible idea. I give -ve comment coz i want LG to make better phs.

  • speccs are wrong, the phone is 16,5 mm thick, not 9,9.. wierd that the gsmarena article about it says 16,5 but the speccs 9,9..someones been drinkning

  • Looks really good but then again, Nokia will come up with something better, I know that for a fact! LG think they have succeeded but they havent really, Nokia are going to produce better looking fones with super powerful features!

  • Ha, this is a joke! Features, total rubbish! And as for 9.9mm thick!!! I don't think so somehow! This phone seriously is for the weak hearted.

  • i know what will be in my dreams tonight!!! move over sarah you have competition

  • Who said samsung phones are not good in term of quality? Personally, I think they are reliable and stylish. However, I dont know the reliability of LG phones.. coz I heard that it's really bad.. :P

  • over rated, over priced, over advertised, this phone is like a catchy song thats played to much on the radio! baby cakes you just don't know! how much i! i hate this phone!

  • That silly silver band with "Chocolate" engraved spoils the entire image... Yuck... No self-respecting guy would carry this phone now.

  • hmm...very thin...but i don't like the silver bar thing with the Chocolate thing engraved...overall...ok phone...

  • when will this be released? i really dont think they should sell it at more than 380 euro, going over would be a bad idea. LG is the only brand that dares to sell solely on design. Even samsung is forced to push down their price, cuz their quality isnt the best

  • Wow! wold class design and features all in one. So to Nokia and SE fans. "WHO IS YOUR DADDY NOW?"

  • ha... 1st post... :P nice phone

  • I hope this phone irons out all of the kinks in the previous model. On the original the buttons are too sensitive and clumsy, there's no speakerphone and it gets smudges easily. Winning design and specs though. I wouldn't get it though because LG have a reputation of being unreliable.

  • TO bb....... Cam isn't everything,even if what you said is true,i was speaking about EVERYTHING that N95 offers and one of them is UPnp which is very useful with laptops (new laptops)bigger screen and the DVD vidoe shooting and...... it doesnt stand at the camera and thats it,but alot more than this...

  • good, very good...

  • Oh l@@k! it has chocolate written on it! can i eat it? lol

  • The things I don�t like are: not a 3G phone the screen sucks and the "chocolate" under the screen, it would be better if they write "LG" instead

  • Wake up LG!!!! 170x220 Alexander the great had better resolution on his phone ha ha ha just a joke

  • ppl try n not to compare a smartfone wit an ordinary fone . n N95 isnt the best . go to japan or korea they have lotz more fone wit better cam then N95

  • .......... 2MP camera,wake up LG lol wake up and try to do better next time. got nothing to say but this handset is a VERY OLD featured phone if we speak about the N95.

  • WoooW! O_O 256mb inbuild and expandable? :O now thats the correction of the 1st chocolate! LG is cool :D

  • autofocus is gd ... but y not the QVGA TFT .. stil staying at the 176X220 ... altho's its 2inch but the resolution not good enough ... no infred ... also as wat the others hav said already , the battery suks ... but i do like the design

  • kg800 is prettier... but ok, I'd like to take your attention - now it's the thinniest slider in the world!!! wow

  • is this the equivalent of black label 2?

  • it doesnt look like its 9,9 mm thick

  • I'M a woman and i will not buy a phone because it has chocolate written on it and i assume you clutter brains out there believe only women like chocolate about the PHONE the design is horrible but it has some good features

  • 2mp and radio, it's good; but only 750 mh li-ion battery? that's SUCK'S!!!!! design is VERY UGLY!!! LG get lost!

  • lg make things quadband you will sell more trust me

  • Yeah... Nice phone LG! But the Thing written above the bottons are... Well makes it a women's phone

  • Nice phone... But the "Chocolate" wrote... Woman Phone
