A good looking phone which misses the bus: LG KG 320

Strengths: Excellent phone design, multimedia features and price tag are just what consumers need

Weaknesses: Battery life is a let down; phone does not have FM radio or expandable memory

After going through the long list of mobile phones which are available at various stores, the one thing that I am convinced about is that there is no such thing as a perfect mobile phone! This thought is pronounced by the fact that the LG KG320 had the makings of a good phone especially due to its easy to handle size and nifty multimedia features. With entertainment packed to the core, the LG KG320 was geared to be a phone which would satisfy most users but its major shortcomings make it land flat on its 'face'.

The battery life is the biggest let down with the LG KG320 and it is actually worst than some of the 'brick' style phones which have tonnes of features but no performance. The KG320 also suffers from the lack of a radio which in fact is available in most entry level phones. Maybe LG felt that they could knock off this feature which not many people seem to be bothered about. Anyways, LG does not seem to be too concerned about the fact that the KG320 does not have an expandable memory either.

So, as you can see, a pretty good phone with some fairly good design concepts has managed to ruin its chance to stardom by being a below average performer. In fact, the LG KG320 had a good chance in the market as well with its very reasonable price tag but all of it manages to get washed away by core issues within the phone that no one has an answer to. The LG KG320 is like one of those technically advanced items which are good to see…but fail to perform.
