  • I am very happy with this phone. I don't need to charge it very often. It goes on and on and on for at least 5 or 6 days. It has some wonderful features like: hourly time announcement in human voice, scheduled switch ON / OFF, displays a message when the charging cable is inserted or removed, displays a message when a USB data cable is inserted or removed, has ample built-in memory, supports small java-based applications like mini-dictionaries & reverse-polish-notation (RPN) scientific calculators, can store upto 1000 contacts, takes good VGA resolution photos in day-light, plays 3gp & other videos, plays MP3 & other audios, and so on. Missing features in this mobile are EDGE, 3G, very large display, touch features, WIFI & 3.5 audio jack. A very decent little phone.

  • I like this phone very much.

  • This phone is great value for money. I bought it 10 days back for INR2500 in Big Bazaar, added 4 GB to it for INR500. There are a few minor problems with this phone: (1) The alarm does not play the tune I selected for it. (2) After the phone goes into screen-saver mode, when I press a key, display comes on, but keyboard backlight does not come on. The keyboard backlight comes on only after we press the correct key combination for key-board unlock.

  • hi yar my head set is not working properly.. i dono y so ... till past one month i was using it .. but the volume is not audible .. i dono whether it is playing or not... any one help me please

  • which games we can play in this phone tell me one goodgame it suports

  • i played many java games with this. if you search for a java game be sure that the screen resolution of that game you download is 128x160. though applications and games seems to work slow. the useful thing for me about this is i always use opera mini 4.2 and boltbrowser w/c i can do free. (i'm using this phone now in making this comment. hehe) and good thing that it has good battery performance, its one thing that makes it exeptional. im not saying you buy or you dont buy. it is upon the user how to appreciate and maximize its use. true keypad is not so good. internet browsing speed not very fast. maybe if released in 2002 or 2003 with its features, it beats them all. :-) hehe im humprey

  • i can"t open orkut on my mobile lg kp 199 it shows ur browser functionality is not switched on

  • Truly saying this product sucks. Actually this seems to be like a device made or developed forcefully,or in some kind of mercy need. Out of 1000 games this device runs only 1 game properly,no other specification is available even on the official site. There was no need of such a phone in the market but i don't know what lg thought, A very low quality keypad which is just a plastic coated paint and not a natural,after a few months use the paint starts getting off and the phone looks like that we have stolen it from somewhere either from a beggar or so. On an average i would say never buy this product.

  • i hav lg kp199.It was swiched off automaticaly.now it is not restarting.i checked its battery,it is working.

  • i have a problem about playing Java games . This set does not run any java application properly which is installed

  • lg kp 199 is a beautifull & user-friendly

  • what about back cover of KP199..is it difficult to open????

  • have you tried using the anti-thief mobile tracker ATMT feature of these phone? what does it do? i thought there was no fast forward for music. thanks to samy. hey. you can make your calls to record automatically by doing these steps. 1. press 2945#*# 2. go to audio 3. go to auto record setting 4. auto speech record and select on. thats it.

  • there is no option of changing text size permanently,

  • Hey dude, its nt 1.3mpx written on this pack, its high quality camera is written and this not mean 1.3mpx..........check out again......

  • How can i permanently change my font size to small size? i keep on changing the font size whenever i write a text msg..please help me..thanks!

  • now i m using KP199 it is very good mobile its blue tooth is good. but there is write on its packing that its camera is 1.3 MEGAPIXEL when i use its camera. there is no 1.3 megapixel. it have VGA camera. i dont know why the company write on its packing 1.3 MEGAPIXCEL

  • this Mobil KP 199 is best Mobil in lg. because battery backup is good.

  • you r wrong dude, u can fast forward d music and video, whey u play d music player just press d next butten longer and see

  • It is a great value for money. The battery life and the MP3 player are superb!! The audio recorder is very good indeed. But the camera could have been better. But anyway for the price you pay you cannot expect more.

  • Battery life is great. However the video & audio player is bad, does not support many popular file formats, cannot even fast forward a video or audio file.

  • this is the waste mobile in all mobiles .do not buy this mobile for 500 also.no features

  • Awesome mobile !!! I use it from last one month i am happy with it:) its Works great :) I suggest you all "Buy" this mobile :)

  • keypad paint goes off to quickly. hence there is keypad problem.

  • keypad problem is in mob..........

  • nice one.. great battery.. i use opera mini w/ these.. great..its tough i dropped it several times. cons 1.no pc siute, 2.i think this one will develop some keypad problems because of long time usage, 3.built in browser is poor, 4. the camera can be 1.3megapixels like kp220 w/c is better 5. the micro sd cover and charger cover is easy to tear pros. 1. great battery, i don't need to charge always. 2. music player is good w/ bit rate 128kbps higher 3. accepts most jar files 4. expandable memory 5. keypads easy to use though some phones looks better than these i live in philippines -humprey :)

  • A Fully-charged device (Power-Backed)!!

  • google maps unsigned v2.3.2.2 can only be installed on this phone but stops running and hangs at particular point www.google.com/gmm/configure.html

  • U can increase ur loudspeaker & headset volume but u hav to put ur music player on TREBLE. Dial 2945#*# (for engineering mode) > Audio > Normal Mode/Headset Mode > Melody > Volume 1-6 >Increase each by 20-30 & then update the parameter .

  • I find this handset to be the best in terms of 2G usage.

  • here's a rundown of the positives and negatives based on 8mos. of hands on experience: (+) -great camera! for a vga stand point, this is amasingly clear, perfect for stills and videos. -fast UI (user interface), somewhat resembles a nokia -anti theft feature -up to 2gb of external mem and 60mb internal mem -nice ergonomic keypad -very durable! trust me on this one. -very long standby and talk time (-) -loudspeaker doesnt do well with music, very bad sound quality. -can't change/customise/add themes -boring icons -a bit thick (old fashioned design i guess...) -no EDGE for an acceptable wap connection -wap browser is absolutely aweful well that's most of it guys... i suggest u decide on what makes u buy stuff... for questions ask! lol

  • uhm... cuz probably u dont have any credits left in ur account?...

  • I cant send a message to somebody else..everytime i send it will send to drafs..Y?

  • however it can't update existing contacts..

  • yup! it has... just click on the option key while you are talking with someone and choose voice recorder and the conversation would start to be recorded

  • you can.. just press option then save for it to save the number..

  • there is just hold the right keypad for a while or moment for it to fast forward.. cause if you just click on it it will go to another song... just hold it for a while for it to fast forward..

  • it is a wonderfull phone also gives long battery for 3 days

  • No

  • go to www.lgmobiles.com

  • can anyone tell, fast forwarding option is there in mp3 in this set....?

  • finally figured it out. the download was blocked by the PC. Just downloaded it on the site mentioned.

  • and i can't download any kp199 pc suite on nothing happens when i click the KP199 among the dropdown list. Its really frustrating.

  • Just both the phone. It comes with a 1 gb microsd here in the philippines. the problem i encountered is i can't find any pc over the internet. Where can i get it?

  • I purchased the phone early this week and tried to configure it to connect to the Internet. However, it is to no avail up to the present. I live in the Philippines, and is there anyone from the same country who was able to connect to the Internet using the KP199 through Globe? Thanks a lot!

  • the specs here show wrong data : 1. Card slot microSD (TransFlash) up to 2GB - it supports 4GB 2. Standard battery, Li-Ion 1300 mAh - It has a 1350 mAh battery. Pls get it correct it or correct me if am wrong

  • you can't change the message tone and you can't create folders for the messages. kindly read ur manual first. aside from that read also my review.. its on the third page i think from the last post.

  • How can i dowanload my Contacts to my PC in LG KP199,Send sugg to [email protected]

  • how can we change the message alert tone (not the ring tone, i know how to) to our specified one?like for example a song from the my stuff folder. been trying to figure this out..

  • how can i put a new folder on the msg.?

  • hey i made a review on this phone here... just look at my comments and post..

  • on the calendar events... i don't know since i dnt usually put events on my calendar..

  • -yes you can move ur messages from ur sim to ur phone and vice-versa -the strap is on the top of the phone, as in top -messages is i think 500sms... it has 60MB internal phone memory... just divide it by the average kilobyte of ur messages.. more or less its 500 sms i think

  • Hey, thanks again. I'll do that when i march onto the stores, place e590 and kp199 side by side and finally decide. Although I do hope someone can really post the total number of SMS that can be stored. Anyways.... Some final not so important concers... Can I copy/move the messages/SMS saved on my SIM card to and from the phone's inbox. Where are the holes for the hand/neck strap located? Top right/centre/left or bottom right/centre/left? How many events can be stored in the calendar? KU250 only stores 100 events. Thanks a bunch!

  • Does it have edge? plz answer this. Because some sellers claim that it has edge.

  • it's really hard to choose between the two since e590 is also a good phone.. it really depends on you.. just follow ur instinct and what u really like at first... disregard the negative comments on the 2 phones since it sumtyms confuses u more.. just decide what is it that u really like..

  • about the contacts.. the kp199 has a pc suite. It is in the www.lgmobiles.com site where u can move ur contacts.. the playlist is only one but has unlimited storage for songs depending on ur memory card. about the compatability of earphones on lg units.. i really dnt know.. u cud also install document softwares as long as it is ".jar" file and any other applications as long as it has the same resolution as ur phone.. where to download .jar files is up to you.. just search in the internet 128x160 java applications/games there is no block/ reject software..actually when it comes to privacy samsung is the best unlike nokia,lg or sony ericsson.. on the lock key.. u cud lock ur phone w/ a password.. but its just like that.. unlike samsung where u can also lock the messages and more.. there are also no themes available for lg.. but just the pre-installed one which is black or white the sound during calls is clear and crisp charging is 3 hours to be exact.. but remember that eventhough it is charge for 3 hours.. battery life could stand even for a week or a month (in standby mode) depending on the usage. It has a great battery power.. keypad is nice.. it responds well and its not hard to press here's an advice... before u buy, why not look at both units and decide which one do u want... since it is much different when u are holding it already..

  • Thanks for the fast comments. So there is a number shortcut for every command and submenu of the phone. Nice. Anyways, what I meant about the headset/USB port/charger is - are the accesories of KU250 and KP199 compatible since they are both LG handsets? I bought a headset on the LG main office in our place and it has a volume rocker and a nice 3.5mm jack on the other end and of course the flat and thin connector that connects to the universal plug of the phone. Well, i do hope someone could give exact figures on the phones maximum SMS capacity based on experience. Here are some more questions: 1. Can I backup the contacts, calendar and to do entries on the memory card (just like my KU250)? And can I upload the contacts that I backed-up from my KU250 to KP199 since there are no option to transfer the SIM contacts on the phonebook memory. Its a bit tedious to manually input hundreds of contacts in the phoneboook. 2. Does it have a secret (password protected) memo and password protected keypad lock option? 3. Telephony. Is the signal/reception crisp and clear during calls(or is it network provider specific)? 4. What do you mean about "nice" for the keypad? Does it respond well/tactile? Good for texting? 5. Is there a block/reject call option and a block message option? 6. How many hours does it take to charge the KP199 if it's battery is empty? 7. Aside from java games, can we install other handy applications? Like for example, a document viewer or anything? The 60mb internal memory should be put into good use. And, where to download those java games? 8. Can we create a music player playlist? How many playlists? And what's the maximum number of song per playlist? KU250 has unlimited no. of playlist each having 100 songs. 9. Can I copy/move the messages/SMS saved on my SIM card to and from the phone's inbox.

  • -keypad is really nice -there's 2 slots only,one for the memory card and the other is for the charger,earphone and usb cable all at the same time. -the earphone's end is same as that of the charger and usb cable... its not the common 2.5mm or 3.5mm since its flat and thin.. -the loudspeaker is so loud.. much louder than my mother's n82.. swear!!

  • -you can't create folders on the messages -up key is messages, ryt key is shortcuts (which u can set/choose), down key is contacts, left key is profiles(which is final already,you can't add more)

  • -you can play background music for both fm/music palyer -you could send sms to a group or to many -it has a good display even on daylight -java games are installed via memory card and not only thru wap therefore no expenses already -the keypad is nice -there's a shortcut to write a message... just one click.. in my phone its the up d-pad directional key -the way to send the message is longer maybe 3-4 clicks.. but not eight.. u just nid to study the short-cuts -message memory depends on the phone memory.. since the memory of this phone internally is 60MB it might store up to 500-600 msgs.

  • I'm planning to buy a samsung e590 or this kp199. but i can't decide which... e590 is just about a few hundred pricier than the kp199 and it has a 3.15 MP cam and almost have the same features aside from the battery life, although it only has a joystick pad and not a 5way D-pad which IMO may not be reliable. Anyways, i have a few queries. 1. Shortcuts - i own an lg ku250 (which unfortunately, is on its later stage of its useful life), is kp199 navigation the same as that of the ku250 like if you want to access the inbox, from the menu screen, just press 5 then 2, or to write a message, from the menu screen, press 5 then 1 then 1 and so forth. i just read in the comments that to sent a message on kp 199, it requires 8 to 9 presses (is it 8 to 9 key presses using the D-pad?) which is a bit of a downer for me cause i'm a heavy texter. 2. can the mp3 and fm radio play in the background? 3. how many messages (SMS)can it store? KU 250 can store up to 300. And can you create a separate/multiple folder(s) for your SMS? KU250 can't... =( 4. can i send a SMS to multiple contacts at the same time (like the same SMS to 10 contacts) - send to many or to groups option? 5. is the screen visible in direct sunlight? 6. are the keypads tactile (good for texting), and the interface responds quickly during fast typing of texts? 7. is signal strength very good when calling, no/less choppy calls? 8. is the headset jack of all lg phones the same? like, can i use/plug the headset of my ku250 (which has a 3.5mm jack on the other end) to kp199? 9. since you can't change the shortcuts assigned on the d-pad at home screen, as previously mentioned, what are the four preassigned shortcuts on the d-pad when in home screen(like for example up-camera, down-calendar, left-contacts, right-create message)? how about for kp199? That's it for now, many more to come. I'm planning to buy a phone this weekend and i have to decide by that time if is it e590 or kp199. Kindly help me decide. My network provider allows me to send unlimited text and make unlimited calls, thus i want to maximize that feature. my ku250 is just not up to the challenge so i really have to switch to a new appropriate handset. How i do wish that gsmarena had an in depth review of this handset just like the e590. thanks in advance for your comments.

  • You can more adjust setting by use this code. 2945#*# Please help me. 1. Post link to download pc suite. 2. How to turn off speaker when use schedule FM record? 3. How to use FM 2 digit decimal(97.75)? Thank you.

  • Of late mobile manufacturers are trying to sell their phones by adding little new features but compensating for this they have modified the LOOK and supplying LONG-TALKTIME battery (admirable decision) which needs longer recharging time. To keep down the price some features are partially removed. LG, SAMSUNG, MOTOROLA are more on this trend but NOKIA does all these RECESSIONS but in a lesser degree. Hierarchy of recession

  • Hi everyone! i just bought LG Kp 199 2 days ago and I really don't regret buying it. -it has a good camera -good player -da usb is very useful in transferring files and images not only on ur memory card but also on ur phone memory since the usb cable recognizes both the two storages so wen u plugged it, 2 removable hard drive icons is wat u will see -user friendly -sound is great especially da speaker.. so loud! -earphone good -wen u call someone the number of that person may or may not be heard depending if you swich off or on the intelligent call option -fm radio is nice -calculator is simple and nice too -ders a BMI and Mentruation guide for ur physical health -u can change the wallpaper of da phone -u can switch files in any of the folders inside the phone or memory card. just choose the image then click multi-move then click options then open to open either the phone or memory then choose the folder der wer u want to place ur file then just click options, done. -fm radio is nice -voice and video recording has no limitations just depends on the memory of ur phone if da storage is phone or microsd if its microsd -cud install .jar files or java games just put it in the memory card or phone via usb den install it. -has world clock and alarm] -has a time teller dat wud say the time every hour but u can disable it if u want -keypad is nice some limitations: -only music inside the "my music" folder will be played. so if u choose da phone memory, only da "my music" in da phone memory would play, if u choose ur microsd, only the "my music" in the microsd wud play. -no themes except black and white only. can't install any anymore -message tone can't be changed -unit converter is limited to some measurements -contacts stored in da phone are the only ones dat can be given a caller image, bday, or additional details -shortcut keys on the d-pad can't be changed - profiles also can't be renamed and u can't add additional dats it!!! over all it is an super excellent phone from me just bit sad because its earphone is not 3 .5mm or 2.5mm.. the earphone is very unique and if broken wud be hard to replace.. myt just used a bluetooth headset instead -just read ur manuals after buying a phone.. I always do.. since der are some intructions or shortcuts der dat wud be reaaly helpful and wud stop u in asking and asking!! READ ur MANUALS first before ASKING.. okay? me, i dnt have any problems because I have read the manual and I use my common sense. I'm just enjoying my phone ryt now. It rocks!!! and for me its one of da best!!!

  • what is the size of video song in this phone

  • I bought LG KP199 today.It is an excellent phone.There is only one disadvantage of this phone is that you can not assign mp3 ring tones as message alert.Message tones are very short and almost silent.Fm recording is the best option ofthe phone has to offer. you can sign a number for theft option.also good option.Fm reception is very good.I highly recommend this phone. Other features are almost the same as other phones.One of my friend is using this phone told me that thebattery last around 8-10days with an avarege use.

  • I think u are totally satisfied with this comperision. For details abt kp 199 contact me 9308558594. Thanks vasudev uncle for calling me. Have a great experience

  • LG KP 199 is a low budget(4000-4400) phone with a lot of features. No one like LG. It has a lot of new features that its competitors hasn�t like Continuous/Appendable(Only AMR) voice recording, Night mode option for video recording,14 different modes for still photography( Grayscale, sepia, sepia green, sepia blue, color invert, gray invert, blackboard, whiteboard, copper carving, blue carving, embossment, contrast, sketch and simple), Music composer, Fm with recording etc. A pocket size power house phone with 1350 mAh Li-ion battery gives 11 hrs of talktime and 30 days of standby time. In average use it gives approx 5-7 days of backup which is excellent(Better than 3110c of nokia 4-5 days).Its main competitors are Nokia 3110c, Samsung J150 and its own branded Lg kp 220 but 3110c gives it a real challenge. So here are the comperision between these two :- Features LG KP 199 Nokia 3110c Camera VGA(640*480) 1.3 MPX(1280*1024) Internal memory 60 MB 8.5 MB Expandable memory Up to 4 GB micro sd Up to 2 GB micro sd Battery 1350mAh Li-ion 1020mAh Li-ion Talktime 11 Hrs 4 Hrs Standby 880 Hrs 370Hrs Screen 1.77� 1.8� Color 262 K 256 K Music Player Yes Yes Fm Yes Yes Fm recording Yes No Video(full screen) Yes Yes Usb charging Yes No Themes No Yes Music(Via speakers) Upto 25 Hrs Upto 12 Hrs Java Installes Yes Yes Music Composer Yes No Infrared Port No Yes Cost(in Rs) 3900-4400 4450-4800

Unfortunately, I am fighting with it to get my contacts (about 890odd contacts) transferred from Microsoft Outlook & Outlook Express both since the last 2 days. Kindly suggest/guide the steps to make my life easier. Mayank ([email protected])

  • i have connected my phone to pc through com port. still its not responding

  • this is very primitive.for every action u should go thro3/4steps.if u dialb a no. from phone book after the call is over u 'llbe back to the phone book screen. if u edit any entry say starting in 's'on completion it 'll go to the 1st entry and not where u 're editing'ucant customize ur navigation keys.battery life not as claimed. it's slightly better than most common ones.sound has considerably come down in 1week.service said software problem and reloded software.but still the problem persist.all warrentys are only eye wash. lg or any in the chain own up responsibility.

  • Hi frnds, I bought this set 4 months ago and I am delighted to say that my decision of going for LG is correct. It is a pocket size powerhouse. It has a lot of features that its competitors hasn�t. Starting with its camera which is VGA but but better than 1.3 MPX of Nokia 3110c. There is a clearity in picture and video quality. It has 14 different modes for still photography. I m fully satisfied wid this handset. Features of LG KP 199:- 1. VGA(0.3 MPX) camera with 4x zoom. 2. Continuous video rec. wid pause/play. 3. 1350mAh Li-ion battery lasts upto 5-7 days. 4. Brilliant music player(Background music also) 5. Full screen video play with 2x, 4x, 8x speed. 6. Soft keypads. 7. Good sound quality in speakers n headphone. 8. 262K colour display TFT screen. 9. Upto 500 hrs of appendable voice recording. 10. Anti theft mobile tracker. 11. Bluetooth 1.2 with a2dp is better than Nokia 2.0 12. Lot of space for Java installes. 13. Mp3 ringtone. Little problems:- 1. Small screen 1.77� 2. No mp3 message tone. 3. Tight usb port. 4. No themes applicable. If u hav any prblm contact me at : 9708011820, 9308558594.

  • Firstly, I would like to congrats m/s LG group for launching this brilliant model for us. I purchased this handset 4 mnts ago and I proudly say that my decision was correct. Really it is surprisingly loaded with lot of new features in the range of 4000-5000. Its main competitors are Samsung j150, nokia 3110c and also its own LG kp 220. There is a lot of prblms wid j150 such as no extra speaker, hard keypads, only 800mah battery, small video rec. which sucks in rs 4700, now coming to LG dynamite 220 it has also many prblms such as small screen 120*160pixel, 900 mah battery, 500 phonebook etc. Nokia 3110c is good but it has some critical prblms like low quality of video recording which breaks pixel in pc, only 8.5 mb of inbuilt memory in which ph.book, message all are stored, also 1.3mpx camera is not good for dark, but the new LG KP199(surprisingy loaded, it�s a dynamite) came with a lot of features in very low range(rs 4200) comparing to above mentioned mobiles. Features of LG KP 199 :- 1. 0.3 mpx camera with 14 different modes for still photography. 2. Continuous video recording with pause/play. 3. Good music player(backgroung music also). 4. Full screen video wid 2x, 4x, 8x speed. 5. Very soft keypads. 6. Continuous/appendable voice recording(upto 500 hrs in 1 gb mmc) 7. Anti theft mobile tracker. 8. Good sound quality in speakers as well as headphone(better than nokia 3110c) 9. Usb charging(free data cable provided n u will get pc suite frm nearest LG service centre for free). 10. Supports approx all music formats like mp3,wav,imy,amr,mp4,3gp etc. 11. Supports micro sd card upto 4gb but u will have to put 2gb which I think sufficient. 12. 262K colour display. 13. Stereo fm with recording. 14. Bluetooth 1.2 is better n fast than Bluetooth 2.0 15. And last but very important its battery(1350 mAh Li-ion) which has a backup of 5-7 days in average use. 16. Oh I missed one thing which is 60 mb of internal memory. Negligible problems:- 1. No themes applicable only two inbuilt theme(black n white) frm which I think white is better. 2. Tight usb port. 3. Small screen(1.77�) 4. No mp3 message tone. So frnds, if u want a pocket size power house just go for it. If u have any problem then contact me at 9708011820 or 9308558594. Byeeeeeeee���.

  • Hai psychoi how are you? Do you ever use GPRS before. Then you must know about GPRS. If no Let me tell you about GPRS first you have to install gprs settings in your phone which you can get from your service provider ask them for gprs settings Please call me 9966240667

  • hai shaily I am Venu you have a problem with data transfer through USB right you no need to install any other softer along with the phone or new OS version I think its your cable Problem Let me tell you how to chek you data cable when you connected with pc through cable Is your cell showes battery charging?

It has a lot of features in very low range and very ahead of its competitors Samsung J150, Nokia 3110c and its own Lg kp220.Extreemly good battery backup(1350 mah Li-ion) that even not found in Nokia phones.I had purchase this set 4 months ago and there is no problem till then.Its battery backup is 6-8 days in regular average use(Like 1hr of music in speakers, 1 hrs of call, 20-25 uses of Bluetooth device etc.). Features :- 1- Long B.backup upto 6-8 days. 2- Good Music player( background music also) as well as video player(full screen.) 3- 4 Gb expendable but u have to put maximum of 2 Gb card which I think sufficient. 4- 0.3 MPX camera with 4x zoom. 5- Continuous video recording wid pause/play. 6- 262 K colour display. 7- Upto 500 hrs of voice recording in 1 Gb card. 8- Stereo FM with recording. 9- Very soft keypads. 10- Bluetooth 1.2 is better and fast than Nokia�s Bluetooth 2.0 . 11- Data cable provided with this and u will get the pc suite from the nearest LG care Little Problems :- 1- No themes applicable, only two inbuilt skins(Black and white) frm which I think white is better. 2- Tight usb port. For any problem call me 9708011820

  • Hi frnds, I purchased this brilliant model 4 month ago and there is no prblm till now. One thing that impressed me is voice recording of 500 hrs in 1 GB card. If anyone want to take details of this phone sms me at 9708011820.

  • I've bought LG KP199 last week. I charged battery and use it in normal of my life. 7 days later the sign of batter on screen of mobile phone doesn't reduce, still 3 level (Full battery) I'll wait for battery low. I want to know how long does battery can standby? When I know how long I'll post the result in this web again. The quality of earphone is my favorite. It's very loud but soft and depth noise. Very good noise, I can talk to everyone even though in the traffice jam or loudy environment. Can communicate with understand I'm not sorry that I bought this phone. It makes me happy and I don't charge battery every 2 days like the past any more.

  • just like Philips Xenium 9@9u...

  • Here we are talking about a small yet powerfull package of multimedia functions and the best of the best ---------- the battery life. This cell phone can last for 7-8 days with rigorous usage. 200 SMS Daily, 3-4 Hrs Calls Daily, 1-2 Hrs Music, 7-8 Hrs on Vibration (which obviously eats battery in other phones) .. So i guess 8 days battery is more than enough for this kind of use.. I charge it on Sundays and it have one cell when i charge it again on next sundays. Music - Music is special in this phone as you can really feel the bass coming out of the built in speaker. Handsfree is somewhat ok. Doesnt slip out of your ears. This is one phone for which i can say that the headset volume is not as high as the builtin speaker. Sound tends to be a bit noisy when the volume is full. Rest its a fine piece of music machine. 8/10 for music It can hold sms upto 300. Sms writing is really fun and easy as the keys are well placed. However, there are more key strokes than Nokia, Samsung or SE. 8/10 for sms. Display and camera are all good for a VGA cam. Its a wonderful VGA camn which you have in it. Obviously night time pictures are not really recommended as they wont even be near to acceptable. so a 8/10 considering it a VGA cam. You can have everything in it except for some limitations which you obviously wont get in a mid range cell. So best ov luck with this set coz i am loving it :)

  • @CNK Can you tell me more about the headfone and speaker sound.. Are the headphones soft Or, will they tend to slip from ears Or, are they comfortable like SE headfones.

  • wave vere good audio&video very good battery bacakap so I like this mobile

  • Can it have MP3 ringtones?

  • Can you tell me more about the headfone and speaker sound.. Are the headphones soft Or, will they tend to slip from ears Or, are they comfortable like SE headfones.

I have buy this mobile phone 4 days ago from the time of this post, the battery baar did not fall down. it shows full batter after talking 1 hour from many callers in 4 days. I have check all functions including camera. VGA camera is also making good pictures, This phone has a Tracker. Now I am checking the battery life.

  • no one like a lg phone battery backup very poor it come one day only !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • please improve the sound quality

  • very nice phone all features in low budget i think lg rocks

  • Well-done M/S LG Group of Electronics, I do always seek for the best possible Powerful Cellular Battery back-up. As now a days I am using Nokia-1650 and this phone is so good as far as concern with Battery long-lasting support. Now here I would like to suggest, if LG-Company adds the Torch-flashlight function in LG-KP199 that should be an enormous plus-point. And now, please look and check also the following flaws of Nokia1650 cell-phone as well. MAIN DRAWBACKS, FLAWS & TECHNICAL FAULTS IN NOKIA-1650. - Bad Keypad's buttons setting that interrupts in texting flouncy. - Poor quality of FM Radio reception. - Very Low sound of the Ringtones, specially the composed tones. - Absence of SMS storage meter, that is why the users are not able to watch that how many numbers of messages are stored in Inbox folder, Sent item folder & Drafts folder in Phone memory or a SiM memory. - Assigned numerical values for the Contents of Menu & sub menus are missing. For example if an end user does press 1 or 2 or 3 & 8 or 9 after pressing the menu key, could not browse the desire location directly. - Where the 8MB memory does exist in Nokia 1650 & how could we utilize this utility? - the back light timing is required in form of Time duration (I.e. mm : ss) neither in the pattern of (Normal, Extended, Off) time periods. - We can fix only ten reminders in the dates of calendar & user can not view their assigned schedules with Date & Time individually as well. - User can fix the Time tracker only above than 30 seconds not less than 29 seconds. - The manufacturer of Nokia1650 has to check also the Torch-flashlight adjustment as well, because if we open the front cover of this cell-phone the Torch-light is not exactly in the central position that-is-why consumer could not utilize the full advantage of this function. Thanks & best regards! Yours truly, M*H@$$@N [email protected]

  • a really low end phone with a card slot? hell yes! if this is under $100 I'll be first in line! wow I just gave praise to an LG phone... I feel kinda dirty lol

  • sorry for double post GSMarena but i forgot to add that it would be cool if you guys write a article on these budget phones since their are now so many not just from nokia but like this from LG, nowadays even these these budget phones are great for specs color screen and loud polyphonic tones some even have mp3 tones! i remember back a few years when people bought the black and white phones and would show off the small size and infrared and radio features lol the old days, it would be cool though if you guys have the time....i remember that holiday phones article you guys did and it was great comparing whats on the market in different groups, been a while for something like that!! keep chillin homies!!

  • Good job. exellent battery life time from lg!!!!.

  • 880h standby time? this must be a very good workhorse mobile phone!

  • first yay! looks like a good low end handset.
