Product Description

An extra wide LCD screen maximizes visual impact, allowing the user to benefit from several key features of the phone, including the 2 mega-pixel camera, video capture and Document viewer. Features: Size 9.88 × 5.4 × 1.2 cm Camera Yes MP3 Ringtones Yes Messaging SMS, EMS, MMS, Email Tri-Band Yes Bluetooth Yes; v2.0 with A2DP Java Yes The Prada mobile phone by LG (KE850) has a beautifully sleek and simplistic appearance. Featuring a large 3" LCD touch screen display with a stunning 320 x 480 pixel resolution, in addition to a 2 mega-pixel camera with Schneider-Kreuznach optics as well as a micro SD memory card slot. The most fascinating thing about the display itself is that it?s made using the capacitive touch screen technology. What this means is that the screen uses electro-conductivity to sense your touch - much like the touch pad on the popular LG Chocolate mobile phone. This technology is created to be usable with fingers only, so the use of a stylus is out of the question whatsoever. Glowing icons on the face of the phone disappear when not in use to reveal a pure, un-adulterated black exterior. The phone is ultra thin (just 12 mm), nonetheless it hosts an array of additional multimedia and business functions, including an MP3 player, Bluetooth and a music multitasking function for messaging. It also boasts an external memory slot, allowing the user to increase memory capacity for images, music and film clips. PRADA?s involvement extends beyond exterior aesthetics to the key elements of the user experience such as the advanced touch interface, ring tones, pre-loaded content, mobile phone accessories and the exclusive leather case included in the box, inspired by the classic Italian craftsmen's tradition. Whats in the box - Prada phone by LG - Exclusive Prada leather sleeve - Software CD - Battery - Mains Charger -

this phone is for snooty noobs who cant get the standard edition because it isnt good enough for them. they are either realy insecure or think that they will be cool if they go round flashing their LG that says prada on it. if you want a prada phone just get a permenant marker. and in the most in your face writing you can do write prada in big letters on the back of your phone. that way when people see you talking on it they will know you have a whole lot of money.

i bought this mobile phone after am sorry to say getting ripped of on ebay buying the viewty ku990, the prada mobile is no were near as good as the lg viewty, but it has just as good looking,the memory is very pour, 2 pictures and 1 song and the phone mem is full,there for you just can not get by with out a mem card, if your into music then a 2gb card would be enough, but what ever the case a mem card will needed if you want to store stuff, but all n all it is a very good phone nice looking and the tutch screen performs well,and it is very simple to use, and for me as a member of the older geniration then that can only be a big plus,its a great phone,like it loads...........

Vastly Overpriced2
The LG Prada phone had been recommended as a best buy by Which? magazine. With a score of 66%; the highest score being 69% I thought i had made a sound investment. Even at the RRP of over £300 I though that was vastly overpriced, so opted to purchase a new handset via Ebay for a little ovr £120....upon using the phone for several months now, I am of the opinnion that even that price is vastly over inflated.

Pros are that it looks nice and sexy, and is incredibly light...so light in fact, that I even forgot I'd left it in my pocket and not realising it was there, mistakenly washed it...I can confirm that it failed the biggest durability test of all...having said that, I don't believe weight is always a pro...the texting functionality is also easy to use, apart from the occasions where the varying buttons forget that they are more than one letter, and decide to stick at the first option....also, the MP3 player is pretty good, fantastic had you wanted an IPOD. Calling is relatively easy, as you'd expect from a phone and the external buttons are pretty self explanatory.

Now, following the Pros; if you can call them pros, on to the cons...well, Which? gave the Prada phone 4 out of 5 stars for durability, Why and How? After a month, the Prada signature strip faded and all the nice sexy silver lining rubbed off to reveal a sleak black inner core, which then scratched as easy as running a knife through butter...just like the rest of the phone really....I found the Prada easily scratches and the front screen suffers from wear and tear far too easily. The 2mp camera is shockingly bad, so bad it fails to take any clear photos, even in daylight. I also don't like the fact that the headphones provided are USB only...interesting choice and I can see why they went for that option...the USB port obviously doubles up with it also used to link to the PC, but that means the headphones are not to be used in any other device.

To sum up, you could easily spend £30 on a phone that would quite satisfactorly carry out the same functions and not look like a piece of garbage after one months use.
