LG KP500 Cookie review: Grab a bite

30 January 2009
It almost feels unfair of LG to give the KP500 a name that's so hard to say no to. The Cookie scent seems to have inspired a craving already and LG are hoping to have you coming back for more. A genuinely affordable touchscreen, a very decent specs sheet, and fun and friendly interface...

Hello, wich one is the better one?
Samsung Star or LG Cookie?

the only fact i am worried about, is that the samsung has much more battery life.. about 10hours instead of only 3 hours LG =? is that realistic?? Please help me to decide which i should buy.
THX

                      When entering a calendar event, to-do or memo is the field limited to a set number of characters?

                          On the LG KP500 is there anyway to receive a text notification of an appointment in the calendar, that then stays on your home menu screen until you view it, the same way you are notified of a text messages. Rather than having to set an alarm (sound) against your appointment which then goes off for a full minute before it then disappears.

                          Hopefully I'm just missing an option or two, which allows you to set an alert (text) rather than an alarm (sound). Otherwise it is a pretty frustrating that you can’t really use this as a day to day appointment calendar, unless you have the phone with you all the time to immediately cancel the alarm, or have it on vibrate all the time.

                          Hope you can help, because otherwise I’m really apply with the phone.

                                  Phone functions OK. Just beware if you intend to use this phone as a music player. The default player is very clunky and unless you start playing music by using the file browser it will play all your albums in Alphabetical order NOT the order of the tracks on the actual album.

                                  Avoid if you like music.
