LG F9200 / MG270


$200.00 Released January, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Decent display quality--bright and colourful enough to be used comfortably in sunlight. Decent battery life--lasts for about a week of standard use. Well laid out menus--navigation is user-friendly.

The Cons:Flat keys on the slide-out keyboard lack any tactile feel, are a bit awkward to use. Dialpad is a bit awkward to use by feel--buttons aren't defined enough. Clunky, dated visual aesthetic can't compete with newer, slicker phones.

The LG F9200 / MG270 is a slide-out phone with a number pad and full physical, backlit QWERTY keyboard and camera. The phone is targeted towards those who send and receive a lot of text messages and/or picture messages.
