to former nokia user: you forgot to add that with this phone, you don't have to wait for the battery to be drained to recharge it. you may charge the battery anytime. no memory effect unlike in other cellphones.

thanks LG.

The phone has video calling; just depends also if service is available from your service provider. :)

Very affordable & has very good features & performance except for battery life which lasts only a day & a half for my unit. Am hoping it will become better after the succeeding charge cycles. Got a working PC suite from betterthan3g.com
This is really a 3g-for-ALL unit.

This can be a true value phone: a cheap 3g phone with the features of most expensive high end phones by other manufacturers. I just want to know how many names/numbers I can save in the phonebook memory. 500? 1000? Is the LG brand as user friendly as Nokia interface? Is this phone of quality built considering its price and features?

at a price of 5k to 6k, you've got this
a)3G capable Video Stream And 384kbps DSL speed Internet through pc where unit funtion as a modem. (hope per kb will be affordable)
b)GPRS internet depends on 3G capable area.
If you are likely in the METRO cities.. no probs.
c)Auto detect difference in sms and mms create message
d)Email through wap and PC through IMAP, pop3 and smtp.. (look for Provider recognized email provider, edsamail, mozcom.. etc.)
e)GIF (Animated/Moving) Wallpaper.. (where in nokia is not capable).
f)Music player could categorized by playlist, genre, artist , album etc.. even album pictures automatically if tags is edited in mp3 tag editing software through pc.
could multitask like (WINDOWS) texting while playing mp3/games/editing calendar/whew...
g)tested on 2Gb and 1Gb Kingston MicroSD purchased in CDR king for the price of 1300 i think and 800 for the later.
h)Of course, VIDEO CALL capable should be in 3G cellsite areas. Reciever & Caller should also have a 3g capable phone and in 3g area.
i)Stereo capable speakers.. and when compared to nokia..nahhh.. almost similar to samsung stereo phones.. so clear and load.
j)most of 12k+ and 21k+ pesos nokia features are present in this phone.
k) could function as an extended USB Storage device in PC (similar to flash disk when set on its settings)
l)OS i think is SAVAJe not symbian, could play JAD application or games
m)has a list of cell operators in abroad (almost 400+ i think)
n)great my business card features (buy it to see it)
o)just what others said.. contacts details are amazing
p)PC suite software are fast to load than nokia, very simple but effecient..(nice GUI)
q)screen is 170 X 220 if you want to know wallpaper sizes to download.
r)camera is great when daytime with super fine features.. much detailed pics (wallpaper to pc)
s) Dual cam VGA at front 1.3 MP at back zoom 4 to 8 i think
t)zoomable picture viewer, DETAIL to grid type viewing of pics,and etc.. (many feats.)
u)TRIBAND and wcdma.. for geeks, graph memory manager, battery automatically charge when connected to pc via cable, bundle with warranty/usbcable/manual.
v)QUALCOMM chipset.. charge in the court by Broadcomm for patents... so unavailable to US... heheheheh
w) help me.. to add another one.. got to go

there is another easy way of transferring MP3's and pictures... simply use the microsd adaptor and plug on your card reader, then pull up the folders when you want to place it... then presto... simply drag and drop it!!!.... try it!. headset na lang ang prob ko.

I was planning to apply for a gplan 800 with a free unit. But first i inquired Globe if i can just upgrade my plan [500] to 800 for this free phone. To my surprise since i have been using a post paid plan of 500 a month for more than 3 years now, i can already avail their rewards promo...options of gcash monthly or quarterly for 1 or 2 years or your choice nokia 5070 or lg ku 250 FOR FREE! wow!!!!!
but ofcourse my line will be locked for another 2 years....well no problem. atleast i dont have to change my simcard/number etc and do all those hassle things to inform my friends of my new number.

i chose this phone. i want to try other phone brands since ive been using nokia from the start. now im just waiting for globe's call regarding my FREE PHONE!

thanks for sharing me the good news about this phone..i am now more than excited to replace my nokia 6270 with lg ku 250.

[problem with nokia 6270 is the flex..just had it repaired and the flex was replaced..but only after 1 month and 4 days, its messing the display again.. :-( ]

your battery may have a problem or you did not charge it correctly. My battery lasts for three days with regular use.

I bought my KU250 from Smart. You may download the LG PC Suite from here:

http://www.smart.com.ph/SMART/...U250.htm#a52

I do not know if this will also work if you are using Globe but after downloading it, I was able to use my phone as a modem for internet and I was able to transfer files to and from my cellphone.

Hope this helps.

I bought it last June 22...
indeed its 3G for all...
but Im just wondering if the how long
should the battery last if its only on standby mode, coz mine lasted only 8hours.
Is this normal or my battery has a problem?
So that i could return my battery immediately..

Motorola has a 3g speed of 3.6 mbps
Nokia/ SE and the rest only has only a 3g speed 384kbps. Does this really affect the 3G performance of the phone? When one is using the video call using a 3.6 mbps phone and the person is using a 384 kbps phone, does it affect the video calling?
