LG KU250 “3G for All”



LG has released one of, if not the cheapest “3G for All” phone. This is supposedly the mass market booster for 3G phones in the worldwide market. The phone retails for about $100.00.

The phone comes with two cameras, a 1.3MP camera behind and a 640 x 480 camera in front for video calls. The phone’s real estate is one of its main attractions, apart from the 3G features. It is tight, robust and boasts huge buttons.

Other features include the following:

* MP3 and video recording
* Full Internet Browsing via WCDMA (384kbps)
* MMS / Email
* WAP 2.0 / JAVA 2.0
* microSD expansion
* Bluetooth and USB connectivity

For what it is, the KU250 is a handy phone for a cheap 3G solution. It offers nothing really spectacular with regards to its feature set, but the $100 price cannot be ignored. It is a bit of a turn off though that the device includes memory expansion — but has no bundled card in its default package.

I would like to say that this phone may make for a cheaper 3G modem alternative which you can pair easily with your computer for wireless surfing.
