LG KF600 Review
7

Introduction:
A month ago, at the MWC 2008 in Barcelona, LG’s products were definitely in the spotlight. One of the main ideas seen in the new phones of the company is that the touch technology is the key to the future.
The slider KF600 is a perfect example for that. Being a representative of the mid-class, it doesn’t have a full touch display, but disposes of a small InteractPad, which has replaced the navigation buttons. Its interface is trying to „predict” what the user wants and changes the navigation keys, according to the menu one is in.

Design:
At first sight, we thought that the device is the Euro-Asian twin of Venus. They have almost identical dimensions (KF600 is 2 mm slimmer and they both weigh 3.8 oz (107 g)). The display is the standard 2” for a mid class phone, 240 x 320 pixels and 262К colors, offering a very good image quality.

You can compare the LG KF600 to many other phones, using PhoneArena's Visual Size Compare tool.


If you push the slider up, a numeric keypad accompanied by the answer/reject and the clear buttons are revealed. All of them are illuminated in white and have no relief. The upper most raw is the hardest to operate; the buttons are hard to reach, due to the limited space surrounding them. Although, catching the eye, the key separation is not convenient in any way. The keyboard is definitely below the average comfort level, which will make you avoid using it.
The camera button and the charger/accessories connector are located on the right and on the other side, we have the volume rocker, and the MP3 player buttons. All side buttons are big enough and quite easy to press. We can only be happy about that, since in this phone, the camera shutter has the function to unlock the display (press and hold).
