Amazon.com Product Description
Designed to allow more people to experience a taste of touch technology at an attractive price, the LG KP500 Cookie is packed full of advanced features usually found exclusively in premium full touchscreen handsets. Its easily accessible multimedia features--available through widgets as well as shortcut icons--provide a fun and easy mobile experience with a single touch of its 3-inch screen. It comes with a stylus that tucks away in the back of the phone and features easy-to-use handwriting recognition.



The affordably priced LG Cookie offers user-friendly touchscreen technology, 3.2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth stereo music, and MicroSD memory expansion.
You'll be able to capture still photos and video clips on the go thanks to the 3.2-megapixel camera, as well as enjoy advanced gaming thanks to the touchscreen and the Cookie's motion sensor technology. Other features include Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free devices and stereo music streaming, MicroSD memory expansion, digital audio player, stereo FM with RDS capabilities, access to personal email with a document viewer, and over three hours of talk time.

Unlocked Phone
This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz). It does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider.

Phone Features
The Cookie's large 3-inch touchscreen (240 x 400 pixels, 256K colors) provides an optimized interface for all forms of multimedia content, and its rotating display automatically shifts from narrow to wide mode and vice versa according to the contents and your position. The large screen size and excellent color depth make it ideal for watching movies, taking pictures, browsing the Internet, and creating and editing drawings and documents. The Home screen menu from LG's Flash user interface (UI) provides quick access to your calendar, alarm clock and digital audio player. The optimized QWERTY keyboard, which automatically comes out when the screen is in wide display mode, enables fast and easy input for email and text-messaging.

With the Cookie's handwriting recognition, you can write and draw on messages or background pictures taken with the phone's camera, as well as send text messages without even using the virtual keyboard. It's also great for realistic gameplay thanks to the embedded motion sensor technology, which recognizes your hand movements and reflects them in the game itself.

The Cookie includes a small 48 MB internal memory, which can be expanded via optional MicroSD memory cards up to 8 GB in size. The internal phonebook can store up to 1000 contact entries (each with 15 fields for storing multiple numbers, email addresses, IM handles, and more), as well as up to 500 text messages, 500 memos, and 500 to-do items. It also features support for caller groups and picture/ringer ID, display of the 40 most recent dialed/received/missed calls, and compatibility with both MP3 and polyphonic (64-chord) ringtones.

This phone provides the latest version of Bluetooth connectivity--version 2.1 + Enhanced Data Rate (EDR)--which makes pairing with the included headset, as well as other Bluetooth devices, a snap. And with the embedded A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of Bluetooth stereo headphones or other compatible devices.

The 3.2-megapixel camera offers six resolution options (320x240 / 400x240 / 640x480 / 1280x960 / 1600x1200 / 2048x1536) as well as a 2x digital zoom. Other features include night mode capabilities for low-light situations, white balance and brightness adjustments, continuous shot capabilities (3, 6, or 9), three quality options, color effects, a self-timer, and in-phone image editing. In addition to still photos, the Cookie can capture video clips in two resolution options (176x144 / 320x240, 12 fps).

The digital media player offers wide compatibility for audio (MP3, AAC, AAC+, WMA, RA) and video (MPEG4/H.263), and it features equalizer pre-sets (Classic, jazz, Pop, Rock, Concert hall). It also includes a built-in FM radio with RDS, which displays the name of the currently playing song (when tuned to compatible radio stations).

Other features include:

  • Messaging: SMS, EMS, MMS, Email
  • Document viewer: MS Office, Doc, PDF
  • Embedded applications and games: Data Wallet, Pipe, Wheelmania, Flying Dices, Thomsons & Touch
  • Organizer tools: Calendar, memo, to-do, world clock, unit converter, calculator, alarm, stopwatch
  • USB 2.0 connectivity
  • Speakerphone, voice memo recording
  • Web browser (WAP 2.0/xHTML)
  • Flight mode

4 out of 5 stars Me gusta!   September 2, 2010
L. U. DONALDSON (MIA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Me causa gracia leer los "reviews" de personas que lo comparan con teléfonos de + $250!

Por su precio es un teléfono que cumple con lo necesario.

Yo tengo tres días de usarlo intensivamente y esto es lo que he experimentado:

ANTECEDENTES DEL USUARIO:

Este es mi tercer teléfono y el primero con pantalla táctil. En realidad quise probar con un teléfono más económico para saber si me iba a poder acostumbrar especialmente porque me comunico bastante por mensajes de texto.
El uso principal que doy al teléfono es para hacer y recibir llamadas, intensivo mensajes de texto y ocasionalmente conectarlo al stereo de mi carro para usarlo como USB.

PROS:

* Definitivamente el precio es su principal atractivo para ser un "touch phone"
* La calidad gráfica realmente me gusta
* Los menús de opciones son fáciles de usar
* El reproductor de música es intuitivo y
* el tamaño del teléfono se siente cómodo en la mano
* la opción te teclado QWERTY y T9 tienen respuesta rápida al "teclear"
* La batería es duradera (claro depende del uso)
* Tiene stylus
* El bluetooth funciona bien con mis Motorola S805 BT headset



CONS:

* El manual de mi teléfono venía únicamente en idioma Checo
* El radio no funcionó (aunque no lo uso sería bueno que todas las aplicaciones funcionen)
* No hay un sitio en internet para descargar aplicaciones, manuales, rigtones, etc.
* El browser es incómodo y poco eficaz
* el visualizador de documentos es un poco lento cuando contiene imágenes
* La conexión OBEX es lenta
* No tiene conector de 3.5 mm para audífonos


RESUMEN:

Para las personas con necesidades básicas y que a la vez quieren un teléfono que luzca moderno y que no castigue tu billetera esta es una buena opción.





1 out of 5 stars NO SOUND   September 2, 2010
Isabel Trivino
The sound of the phone suddendly stoped, no ringing, no music, nothing.
Very bad experience



1 out of 5 stars Never recieved   August 31, 2010

I ordered this phone and never recieved it...I previously ordered the same phone months prior and it works fine. Battery life could be longer though...


4 out of 5 stars Nice for the time it was made but they are always getting better   August 30, 2010
Michael Hamblin
Texting is super easy with this phone I have sprint in the U.S. and I was able to get MMS and internet services to work right away. Just did a bing search for my settings.. There is a lot of info out there on how to set it up. The phone is very thin and lightweight. I wear jeans a lot and it fits in the front pocket nicely. So, if you don't need 3G, GPS, or WiFi, this is a really great phone. If you do, then I'd look elsewhere. But, for me, it does everything I need, and does it well. I've had this phone for about a month now, and I'm very impressed with it. It gets great reception, even better than my old V3 RAZR, which I thought had excellent reception. Call quality is also very good. I love the touchscreen! I won't go back to a non-touchscreen phone after this. It's so much easier to navigate through the menus and get it to do what I want. Yes, texting is not perfect, but doable. But, all the positives of the touchscreen outweigh that negative. And, I text more than I want to admit. overall, I recommend the phone if the price is discounted some for the older technology.




4 out of 5 stars A pretty good phone   August 29, 2010
Mark Mills
This is a pretty good phone. The phone sound quality is very good. The touch screen works well. Once in a while the touch screen takes a few seconds to become responsive. When turning from "phone style" touch screen to full key touch screen; once in a while I have to turn the phone on it's side (turning it is the normal procedure) and give it a little shake. The video and still camera both work well. The battery life is about average. The phone is typically on stand by or used for texting and the battery will last for 3 days. I have not used any of the internet features, so I can't comment on them.
I would buy this phone again...
