LG KF510 Review

Published on: 17 May, 2008 by PhoneArena Team

Performance:

During the rest of the time we used the LG KF510, it came out that it is not just another beautiful entry in the company’s product catalogue. The quality of the sound while talking is above average. The voices are loud, but not real and sharp. In contrast, on the other end of the line, the sound is loud, and the voices are clear and easy to understand. The loud speaker doesn’t have the same good qualities – the sound is very weak and the collocutor will think he is talking to a robot.

According to the official data provided, the 800 mAh battery has to be able to let you talk for 4 hours or give you 400 hours in a stand-by mode. In reality, it lasts 2 hours of talks and the same amount of time of abusing the preloaded games.

Conclusion:

The fashion phone fans will mainly like KF510 because of the gradating colors on the front and back panels. Most people will most likely hate it since it doesn’t bring any innovation, and is just another beautiful entry in LG’s product line. You could easily think of it as a downsized version of the Shine, but with a modified navigation.

”Love it or hate it”. We leave that up to you.

Pros

Gradient colors and beautiful design
Stable slider mechanism
Interactive touchpad

Cons

Low quality camera

PAppeal

Christian Dior:: 10 of 10; Very high

Looks quite good and with the gradating colors, every one will stare at it, once I pull it out of my Hugo Boss jacket.

Average Joe:: 3 of 10; Low

Wow! What a slim phone and what interesting colors! It’s a bit expensive for me and why do I need a touch-pad anyway?

Corporate US:: 1 of 10; Very low

A beautiful phone, but what can it do for me? It will better suit my daughter!

High-Tech junkie: 1 of 10; Very low

It will definitely attract the attention of my friends, but the camera is not good and there are not many functions... I would go for something more...
