LG KE850 Prada review: Sophistication made simple

29 May 2007
The Prada phone by LG is among those handhelds that rely solely on touch-based as opposed to stylus-based interface interaction. The famous Apple iPhone surely started the craze over such devices, but the LG KE850, elsewhere known as the Prada phone, is nothing like iPhone. A highly stylish and versatile multimedia device, the Prada branded mobile is a true joy to the eye and represents the true meaning of a fusion between a full-featured mobile phone and a fashion icon.

    screenshot clearly shows that shutter tone cannot be turned off.
    but he phone I held in my hands, had this option. definitely it depends on the software version!
    but I managed to turn it off in my phone.

        This screenshot clearly show that there is no such option to turn off camera shutter tones...

        Maybe it depends on software version!

          very attractive phone, good design and the UI reminds me of Palm OS devices. the "schneider-kreuznach" label looks fascinating:D

            there is a mistake in review: shutter tones can be turned off!!!
            maybe in reviewed phone there were no such option, but in the camera menu You can choose to turn shutter tones off.

              yea deffinitley this is one of the most amazing phones that i've used before, i mean its not to compare to the n95, n95 was very bad designed and the slider was very bad on it and battery was horrible, etc. i dont know i go through maybe 2 days without charging the ke850, and the messaging thing now is really easy i got used to it, the only minus that i've found was is that u cant set your own theme and choose what icons u want on the front :P

              also - i am a wholesaler in new york we've had like 100pc already in our hands, but once we got a shipment, with fake software on it, you can easly check it if you go to the "theme" option, and as you see in GSM arena, when he goes to themes, you see "PRADA theme" etc. in the fake software you see "Black Theme" also came with the fake software a lot of fake accessories in very bad quality, watch out for fake guys!

              also we lowered our price, $749.99 ctinyc com so check it out ;)

                this is a significant phone..but i still think beyond the touch-sgreen and nice design its not so good, the nokia n95 is better...it just is...
