Abstract: At this years Mobile World Congress, LG was keen to promote its latest handset, the LG KF600, which features a split-screen design. We were just as keen to get our hands on this mobile, as interesting as it looked. Would we find its functionality to b...

Attractive interface, handwriting recognition, aboveaverage camera
Awkward phone book, primitive file management, no background music play, no 3G
To sum up, I have to say that I am disappointed with the KF600. The lack of 3G is not my biggest concern, neither are the durability issues. What I would take more seriously is actually the user experience, because this is exactly what it is being adve...
Abstract: The tri-band LG KF600 is a slider and my review sample came from Orange, but you can find it elsewhere too. It is immediately marked out as different from other mobiles because it has two front screens. One is a 2in display offering 320 x 240 pixels that...
Not really suitable for multimedia, A very uncomfortable keyboard, Mediocre camera
For the time we used the KF600 we had the strange feeling that it’s sole purpose was to promote the InteractPad. That could be the reason for LG to choose a base, which has already passed the market tests – regular slider, which isn’t beautiful, nor ug...
A fabulous looking slider phone that’s easier to use than most touch-screen phones
The phone lacks a few key features and the InteractPad takes up too much of the display.Look and Feel
We’ve wound up rather liking the KF600 despite its little quirks and flaws. It’s a good looking phone that’s easy to use for a touch display device, even though it achieves this by embracing a traditional user interface, which woul...

Theres no use anticipating the LG KF600, because for once we Americans got an LG phone before the rest of the world. The KF600 is the LG Venus, out from under the stern gaze of Verizon Wireless watchful eye. We definitely prefer this version, mainl...

No 3G connectivity, interface speed, tactility of touchpad, poorly designed keypad The Final Word The KF600’s unique touchpad is reasonably successful, but it’s not without its faults. Perhaps the biggest issue with the phone is the lack of 3G...
The KF600’s unique touchpad is reasonably successful, but it’s not without its faults. Perhaps the biggest issue with the phone is the lack of 3G connectivity. However, this is still a reasonable handset.
Keith Haring themes, Contextual menu, Sliding mechanism feels smooth
Touchscreen is awkward to use, Cumbersome Web browsing, No 3G network support
It seems like everyone is trying to figure out innovative ways to implement touchscreens, and while the LG KF600 is definitely an interesting concept, we dont think it works as smoothly as it could. Were definitely interested in seeing where LG take...
