To everyone who is complaining that the phone is too long ...
It's less than 0.5 inches longer than the iPhone, and yet nobody has a problem with the iPhone being too long. Secondly, the excess lenght is really amplified by the fact that the phone is much narrower than its competitors.

LG has a long way to go with its UI

The aspect ratio is absurd. The phone is nice otherwise, with cool design, features and interface.

Well now! I NEVER liked LG, except for the Renoir, Xenon, U960, and Viewty, and I was also never a big fan of Chocolates 1-3 (including the Eu versions), but Chocolate v4! This phone looks amazing. The phone is practically brick length but that's a good thing because I have NEVER seen a phone with a 4" touchscreen (wtf?). S-Class UI looks better than on their other devices, and the Grid/Row feature (going down to the icon row and scroling left/right for more options) just took the cake. It also leapfrogs over it's current standards aone with as a basic music phone with Wi-fi, a better GPS, 5MP. Very good job LG. Wonder how much this phone is going for...

I think the design is spectacular and the new Sclass interface by LG is really good but the thing is, with most of the new LG phones which consist of the new interface are just to slow and freeze, i had the KM900 arena and all it kept on doing is freezing, turning it self off, i rang LG and they couldnt do anything about it, thus i just think its a waste of money investing in such phones made by LG. LG have not really thought this out yet they are still bringing new phones out. First they should improve the S-class interface and release new firmware for the exsisting phones such as the Viewty and the KM900 arena. Theres no point in having a new interface and acting all happy about it like its something amazing when it doesnt even run properly, LG please get this sorted. Nokia still own the mobile industry for me.

Kind of looks awkward to hold and use in practice.
The best thing is that AMD have finally fixed the DivX video playback mode and its above the Viewty(KU990)/Virgo(KF700)/Renoir(KC910) models which all used Qualcomm based cpu.
Hopefully in future firmware release updates for the Prada II(KF900), Arena(KM900), Viewty Smart(GC900) and Crystal (DG900) they will also fix the divx playback from max 352x288 to at least 640x480 (4:3) and 640x384 (16:9) resolution.
