LG KG120 review
Hardware and connections
LG KG120 falls into the category of Dual-Band GSM cell phones. It is in fact able to operate on two different frequencies: 900 and 1800 Mhz. It also features GPRS connectivity for data transfer; it is equipped with a USB port, while unfortunately it does not offer Bluetooth compatibility. LG KG120 integrates a CSTN matrix display with 65,000 colors and a resolution of 128 x 128 pixels. The battery used is a lithium-ion one with 830 mAh and guarantees battery life of up to 200 hours in stand-by mode and about three hours in talk time.
Design and features
The LG KG120 cell phone is a device with a clamshell opening. It has a very sober design, with soft lines; the built-in antenna and the very rounded corners give it a compact look. The dimensions of LG KG120 are very contained: it measures in fact 85 mm in length, 44 mm in width and 22 mm in thickness. The weight is 85 grams, battery included. The buttons are medium-small in size and there is a pad that allows you to quickly move through the menus, in addition to a few function keys.
Main features
In talk mode, LG KG120 offers the possibility of making multi-conference calls, that is, communicating with several devices connected simultaneously. Unfortunately, however, the phone lacks the hands-free function and the voice recorder. On the other hand, the alarm clock, calculator, currency converter and organizer functions are not missing. As for messaging, LG KG120 supports many of the current standards: it is in fact able to receive and send SMS, EMS and MMS; all easily composed thanks to the T9 quick-writing software. The memory is only 2 MB but, given the limited customization options, it is more than sufficient for the phonebook and other basic functions.
Entertainment and multimedia
The LG KG120 model does not offer a high degree of customization. Access to the Internet, guaranteed by the WAP browser, allows you to download polyphonic ringtones, screensavers and Java games (in addition to the already present Sudoku and Halloween Fever). This cell phone from LG cannot be used as a music entertainer; besides being without an AM/FM radio, it does not have a multimedia player for playing MP3 files or other formats.
