LG KC560 surfaces - did someone say tacky or what?

10 Nov, 2008
The LG KC560 handset leaked today with a supposed release date just in time for the holidays. Having multimedia as its key element the LG KC560 does have some… okay, "interesting" design solutions....

OK..GSM arena..consider it ugly...but why when another manufacturer create a phone which is really ugly u call it very very nice only becauz its SE.

Common...i like this site and the reviews are really good but i dont need to read ugly for a new phone before people see the photos & i dont need to read that Nseries design is ugly with each Nseries phone review and preview.

    LG Rock...

    I dont know why people just say LG's are just made to be cheap? So? When there is a expensive phone you all say "omfg i want it but its expensive...sad". LG phones are just cool phone i own Secret and its the best mobile for me ever. (I also own Shine too...)I was always trying those not-top phones like LG, Dragon, Sharp, Sagem. Samsung's are also good.

        No need to be so offended; what are you... The owner of the company?
        Is it your grandmother's? Or just plain LG fanatic (even more path3tic...)

        If you don't like this website,
        you are more than welcome to get off this site and never come back.
        It is a common knowledge that LG is a cheap phone for mass market, so its design IS kind of tacky and bland...
        Just accept the reality...

For as long as I've known LG it was the first one to put a 5MP camera ( KG5xx? maybe the 1st in my country, South Africa) and the first to make a smartphone (touchscreen) without an "OS" with the Viewity.

                      Some people here said that LG Mobile doesn't have good design.

                      But remember LG KF750 Secret won Best Stylish Phone at UK Mobile Choice Consumer Awards 2008, LG KE770 won Best Design Product at RedDot Design Award 2007, etc.

                            looks like the Nokia N85 this mobile,LG always try to compete but there quality an relibilty as always been below par,they started off getting themselves a bad name releasing mobiles for the "3" network an no phone turned out to be either good or reliable,thats why i have kept away from there mobiles an alot of other people do as well,so they have got to upgrade there quality to compete with the top mobiles but with cheap mobiles for kids they do well because there mobiles are that cheaper than the others

                              (Not that I want to own one after a horrible experience with it! Fool me once is enough... No more Samsung for me...)
                              Nokia + SE have always kept me satisfied (Especially SE Customer Service - One of the best!! They sent me FREE phones!!)
                              It is LG that I question here.
                              Sexy...? You want to call a phone with a brand 'Life's Good'...Sexy?
                              ;-p Thank you for making me smile in this rainy Monday!

                                Man... The LG KC560 looks like the kind of phone a pimp would've used back in the 70's... I mean, what's with the disco ball?? Bet someone down at LG's design department is still wearing their bottom bells... They shoulda called it the LG Boogie-woogie-phone! Let's all make love not war!! Lol Peace out!

                                        I don't get it with LG phones...
                                        Their models look so lame and cheap.
                                        With enough models from Nokia, Sony Ericsson and HTC floating around, I wonder what's the big deal with LG (especially these 'gold' models)
                                        Perhaps I already answered it:
                                        LG is cheap(er)...
                                        Peace Out!
