I have now had this phone for three years, it still fully works, nothing major gone wrong and i must say, it is a very good phone and the best i have ever had or ever used! the battery life lasts for ages (approx 6 days even with calls for about 30mins each day and about 30 texts each day) whilst with same activity on a buttoned phone (not even mentioning touchscreen phones) lasts a couple days less then on this phone. it is very simply, yet elegent phone which i would stongly advise for people who want a touchscreen, which has a good battery life, and is great in design, yet still have the old touch of buttons!
Personally and many others with this phone found one main downfall, and it is the lack of themes you can have. All the themes that are already on the phone are the only ones you can use, so therefore if you are someone who likes to customise your phone constanly, this may not the be phone for you, however you can download many wallpapers and moving wallpapers onto this phone to create your own theme. For those with big thumbs its also a pretty bad model as the keys are so small, but you get used to it over time! Another small thing, is the camera light, on my phone (not all phones of this model have this) when im taking a picture with flash, it doesnt flash like normal camera ones do, but its like a bright light all the way through, so this is quite hard to take a good picture of someone as its so bright it really irriates your eyes! Apart from that, this phone is 10/10 for me!! :)

This fone is made for me, one of the best I've ever bought
The lack of 3G is what I'm willing to forgive :X

I own this phone in Brazil and I can honestly say that it's junk. The battery does not last 2 days and the indicator goes directly from full to empty. The OS is full of glitches, sound quality is awful and the photos cannot be previewed in Windows Vista. Also, if I delete the blank text messages that get created in the inbox every time the phone is powered on, eveything else hangs and I need to reseat the battery. This is the worst piece of equipment I've ever had.

mendy, 10 Nov 2008Any one have the same problem ?Please help me! The battery ... moreIt's likely your battery is fine.
Make sure your blue tooth is disabled. Enable it for when you need it, then disable it immediately after.

this phone aint to good people, ive had since the start of the summer it holds about 200 sms, but it freezes alot and my video camera doesn work anymore everytime i go to use it the whole phone just completely freezes and i have to take the battery out its really annoying i know its looks really cool but the novelty wears off and then the flaws come out, seriously though there is cheaper phones out there that are better so really look around before deciding to get it

It is a good phone but one major downfall is when you upload photos from the KF600 onto Windows Vista its impossible to preview pictures in thumbnails or when you try and open them with Windows photo gallery. No problem when you open them with Picasa or Paint but still very annoying for previewing. It's fine with XP or previous Windos but its an obvious compatability issue with Vista.

I just got this phone!
everything works fine except
when everyone called me, the phone just shown the number but not the names, eventho they are all save in the contact list. all the contact list is in the phone not the sim card, but it shouldn't make any different should it?.
thanks in advance!

Hi all,
just FYI, the LG KF600 was released first in the UK AND in China. the handwriting option for sms is a MEGA PLUS when you need to type an sms in chinese. for those who knows, typing in chinese requires to know by heart how to pronounce the word in order to type in pinyin. with the handwriting option, you can just type in the character without knowing how to say it.
Also, the chinese version has a translator chinese - english. the handwriting here is then a plus. for example, when you see a word in the newspaper that you don't know, you just have to type it in!
i'm going to buy it tonight!
Cheers =)

i think the reviews on gsmare are absolutely brilliant.
not too sure about this phone, i think once the novelty of it being different wears off then you're likely to find this phone annoying on a day to day basis.

OMG! What a great review, everything is answered 10/10.
I really like this phone dispite already buying the shine and viewty(i love them too), but this is just so different. I really loved the themes and games, they were very funny and seemed like alot of fun!
