LG KF510: My Dream Mobile Phone
Don't know why while there are so many newer and far more sophisticated mobile phones launched and landed on the market, I still get fascinated by this LG phone. It used to cost IDR 2,900,000 at the first time it was thrown to the Indonesian market but now it costs less than IDR 1,500,000, which is certainly tempting to me. My motorola V3i has gotten some scratches and they are getting more and more visible, making it look less shiny than before. And what I complain about most is the battery lifetime. It sucks, to be frank. I initiated buying an extra battery just in case I need more power to resume my dropped call due to sudden loss of energy supply. The slim battery seems to hold only a 'slim' amount of energy for the phone. The one and only thing that succeeds to make me keep my motorola is its design.
I know judging the book by its cover is contrary to popularbelief proverb. But in the 21st century mobile devices world, design is one of the key factors contributing to the vendors' profits.

When most people get infatuated with 3G or HSDPA or any other advanced technology innovations, I love this phone even though it is designed to operate in triband GSM network only. Good bye 3G and video call! I can afford to buy 3G enabled phones but the problem is..can they function properly ?
Unlike other slim sliding phones we may find in stores, LG KF510 is born to be strong. Fragility is not its middle name. Anti-scratch fine tempered glass covers the whole phone surface. And the metal frame is claimed to be strong enough to protect the inner delicate components.
The user interface is also said to be one of its contributing factors in attracting more buyers. The touch user interface which functions as direction pad just like in conventional phones is activated after the sliding is drawn downward.
There is nothing special with this phone apart from the two points explained above. This however does not underrate some of the features embedded in it. The camera is 3 MP in resolution. Armed with flash light, autofocus, various camera modes, and shake reduction, LG KF510 is ready to capture tons of cool pictures and videos.
The screen is standard, 240x320 pixels (QVGA resolution) with agreeable brightness level. Radio FM can be activated as we plug the handsfree into the specified port.
I cannot complain more about the memory capacity. Though it is small (only 16MB shared internal memory), I can purchase a transflash/ micro SD to save more files.
As for the battery lifetime, it is moderate. It is powered by 800 mAh li-ion battery that may survive from 2 up to 3 days (for standby mode).
