LG GS107 review

Network and connections
A sibling of the GS106, the GS107 model is also simple and essential. Let's start right away with the technical features. The GS107 is equipped with a GSM Dualband network receiver, on frequencies of 900 and 1800 MHz. Signal coverage is good, although it does not support intercontinental travel. Unfortunately, Bluetooth is missing, so data can only be exchanged via the USB cable. Support for making use of Internet data traffic is also missing.

Design and features
The structure of this LG is classic Candybar, to maintain compact dimensions while also offering sturdiness and manageability. The dimensions are 12.9 mm in thickness and only 70 grams in weight. The front houses a 256,000-color screen. It is a 128x128 pixel TFT. Just below, there's a clickable directional pad which, together with the function keys, allows every operation to be managed at its best. Finally, at the bottom is the standard alphanumeric keypad, with keys joined together but comfortable to use. The sales package includes the data cable and convenient earphones.

Main features
The proprietary LG platform offers complete basic management functionality. Here, in fact, is the contacts address book, the organizer for managing appointments, the alarm clock with alarm scheduling, and the calculator. Easy writing helps a lot in quickly composing texts, so you can quickly send SMS, but not multimedia messages. As for the purely telephone-related aspect, there is the speakerphone, support for multiconferencing, and vibration alerts.

Entertainment and multimedia
The GS107 is an absolutely simple device. It proves to be a valid ally for the basic user who has no major demands. This explains the lack of a digital camera, now common on most devices of every range. This LG, however, plays the role of an AM/FM radio player well. It is also possible to customize the polyphonic ringtones. Battery life is excellent, with autonomy of up to 800 hours in Stand-by.
