Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Sink your teeth into the luxury and innovation of the Chocolate KG800 by LG. With its minimalist-inspired style and silky-smooth slide design, the Chocolate offers a rich array of features that include a glowing, touch-sensitive keypad, a superlative music/video player, a luxurious 1.3 megapixel camera/camcorder, and Bluetooth capabilities. If you value extreme style mixed with powerful substance, this is the phone for you.

Sleek lines and a luscious design make the KG800 the hottest thing you can put in your pocket (black version shown).

Design
The LG KG800 is entirely about fashion, convenience, and usability. The ultra-thin, stylish slider design always keeps the unobtrusive internal antenna safely tucked away-- always protected from snags or breaking. The touch-sensitive navigation keys are hidden when inactive, a key feature to save battery life, or when keeping a low profile is a must. A unique touch protection feature is built right into the phone--preventing unwanted key actions. In an effort to always keep things looking fashionable, the 176 x 220 pixel screen boasts over 260,00 colors. The user interface provides for clear images and text, and there are wallpapers with fun animations, as well. Other design features include a 1.3-megapixel camera, which is housed on the rear of the phone. To keep the user interface looking clean and tidy, the left edge of the handset sports the volume buttons, while the right side houses the end call key, media key, and a covered USB 1.1 interface. The phone includes 128 MB of shared internal memory.

Calling Features
The Chocolate boasts powerful calling functions, such as speaker independent voice dialing, which makes it easy to call contacts by simply saying their names. No prior voice training is required and you can even speak individual digits to the phone for quick dialing of numbers you know by heart. And because the Chocolate is Bluetooth enabled, wireless headsets can be configured with the phone for total handsfree operation.

Need to make a call? Just slide it open.

Messaging, Internet and Tools
The phone's support for multimedia messaging means that text, photos, video and audio can be sent with ease. When used in combination with the Chocolate's built-in camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging fun. The built in MMS editor allows the user to create convenient messaging templates for fast MMS messages, as well as the usual ability to create SMS messaging templates. And to make messaging even easier on the KG800, the phone comes stock with built-in T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets--a definite plus for mobile email and text messaging users. A number of handy software tools are bundled with the Chocolate including a calendar, an alarm clock, a calculator, a stopwatch timer, a digital note pad, and a vibrating alert alarm.

Imaging and Entertainment
The KG800 arrives Java enabled, allowing you to play the latest games--a requisite for any high-end fashion phone. The KG800 even comes stock with embedded games, and of course, more games can always be downloaded from the web and loaded onto the phone via the KG800's convenient USB connection port.

Into taking pictures or carrying your music with you everywhere? The Chocolate's 1.3-megapixel digital camera features a flash, a 4x digital zoom, a multi shot mode, and a photo album feature. The camera also offers up to one-hour of video capture. When it's time for music, the Chocolate boasts a built-in music player with stereo speakers and an equalizer, offering MP3 and WMA playback, a feature which lets you keep your music playing in the background while during a call. You can also take advantage of the Chocolate's Bluetooth wireless headset capability, allowing you to hook up a pair of Bluetooth stereo headphones.

Vital Statistics
The LG KG800 Chocolate weighs just 2.93 ounces and measures 3.74 x 1.89 x 0.59 inches. The lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 6 hours of digital talk time, and up to 200 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM 900/1800/1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one-year limited warranty.

Product Description
So what makes the Chocolate look so great? The touch sensitive keypad controls? The sliding number pad? Slim design? Beautiful screen? From R&B to Heavy Metal to Easy Listening, the Chocolate lets you download from over 1 million songs on the go.

4.0 out of 5 stars good phone, needs a little more, August 13, 2006

By	S. D. Van Dartel "WHO am I" (Canberra Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A sleek attractive slider phone with almost everything you could want. It has a shiny black body and instead of keys on the front it has a heat sensitive touch pad which lights up bright red when its ready to use.

Although it has a MP3 player it only has 128mb of memory which means you can hold only a couple of dozen songs. Unfortuanltly no expandable memory. It does however come with a really cool set of headphones/handsfree kit.

It is also missing a speaker phone which could be useful.

When it comes down to it a phone is a phone. Do you really need all the extras ????

It comes with a cool game (ZOO ZOO), you can hold up to 1000 names in you contacts book, Plenty of cool ring tones and it is definately one of the best looking phones out there. Its also really small just like a a bar of Chocolate.

Overall this is a good phone and I believe its way better than the motorola V3. But i'll let you all make you own minds up

4.0 out of 5 stars Sexy but Short Tempered, September 7, 2006

By	Elise L. Arnold "T-Mobile Lover" (Swansea, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This phone is sexy from the keypad to the box that it comes in. However, it is VERY sensitive to heat and touch, and will go psycho very quick. The Mp3 player is of good quality and holds more than most phones with Mp3s. The earpiece volume is pretty low and leaves a lot to be desired. Basically, this phone is good for getting compliments, but not very talking friendly, much like the RAZR.

3.0 out of 5 stars LGKG800, December 6, 2007

By	Fz Al-aufy "aufy" (OM) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The phone is quite a nice basic phone but has two main problems, when it gets humid the screen flips to different screens and could be quit irritating and the 2nd problem is the battery, it wears off within 4-5 months and make sure that your fingers a very dry before you use the touch pad otherwise you could end up tossing it out of the window.
