The LG KG290 Unlocked GSM Cell Phone is the perfect phone of choice if you are looking for an entry level and inexpensive mobile phone that can perform beyond your expectation. With its 1.3 megapixel camera and several music features, this mobile phone will surely fast become your ultimate mobile communication buddy.
This sleek and stylish cellular phone keeps it simple. If you’re a mobile phone user who only uses his or her phone for communication purposes, the LG KG290 Unlocked GSM Cell Phone is the right phone in mind. It can perform the simple task of sending text messages or making calls, but with its price range, you’ll be surprised to find out that there is actually more to it than just communication.
For starters, it is equipped with a 1.3MP camera, pretty decent for a camera phone in its price range. This slider is also compact, only measuring 3.62 x 1.65 x 0.71 inches and weighing 83 g, you can virtually bring it anywhere. Easily slide the slider into your purse or pocket, or even hang it on your neck with a lanyard. This is so light and so small that bringing it along with you regularly is a complete breeze.
Thanks to the spring-operated slider and the well-positioned controls, operating and handling the LG KG290 is a real comfort. And since it is so small, it fits well in the palm of your hands. The five-way navigational pad puts up with the brunt of the work. Rest your worries away, since it is stable and solid enough to take on the job. The LG KG290 also has dedicated camera and volume buttons on its left side for easy access and convenience.
When it comes to the quality of the voice and the sound, no questions asked, the LG KG290 is really praiseworthy. The mobile phone produces clear and sharp sound that listeners and users will love. The hands-free speakerphone also performs flawlessly.
Although tagged with an affordable price tag, the function and features of the LG KG290 are really remarkable. It is Bluetooth 2.0 capable, and you can play your audio and video on it. Also, you have the option of expansion, thanks to this phone’s microSD slot where you can insert microSD cards for memory upgrade. Now, you can upload your favorite music list onto your phone, and enjoy limitless music and videos(well, will depends primarily on the capacity of the microSD you’ll attach to it)! If you’re tired of your music playlist already, you can always switch to FM mode for access to newer songs.
If you’re in a budget and you’re in the lookout for an outstanding mobile phone, then you better check out the LG KG290 Unlocked GSM Cell Phone. It can perform all those basic applications like sending text messages and making calls thoroughly, plus it can also do great things like capture picture and play MP3, pretty impressive for its price tag.

This is a pretty good phone for the price. I have dropped this phone about 4 times and it still is working strong. I bought this phone because I am waiting for the iphone to come down in price, and I use my cell as my primary phone as well. I have had some problems with calls being dropped, but for the most part it works fairly well. It takes pretty good pictures as well.... |

Really nice phone. Everything is very simple and has everything you need. Unfortunately, if you live outside of the city, this phone is not for you because you cannot get service anywhere. I had a Samsung previously, and it got service where I lived, but this phone does not. That was really the only major down side to this phone. |

I have this phone for 4 days now, so far I have loaded 60 songs on mp3 and 30 on wma to test. Loading was no problem and easy. Since my desktop doesn't have card reader, I bought 2GB micro SD with adaptor and transferring songs was easy. I transferred video to test but I couldn't see it, maybe I need to do some reading. |

What You Should Know

 What is Bluetooth?
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range communications technology
intended to replace the cables connecting portable and/or fixed devices while
maintaining high levels of security. The key features of Bluetooth technology
are robustness, low power, and low cost.
It’s more than seeing. It’s
believing.
Before wires, everything was wireless. Nature found ways to connect it
all—often on a very mysterious frequency. Bluetooth wireless technology
takes its prompt from nature: harmonious, intuitive, seamless. Products with
Bluetooth wireless technology communicate with a sense of purpose and
elegant efficiency. Today, Bluetooth wireless technology can eliminate
wires. In the future, it may make the word “wireless” entirely obsolete.
By then, Bluetooth freedom will be second nature.
Designed to make connectivity invisible and
reliable. A perfect convergence of extraordinary technology and elegant
simplicity. Hundreds of companies are on board. Thousands of engineers have
contributed. Standards have been set. Specifications have been approved.
More than one billion devices are in use. And people are experiencing just
how far they can go.
It’s integrating every dimension of
productivity.
Where do we work? Desk. Sofa. Car. Hotel. Kitchen. Plane. Yard. It’s not one
location; it’s everywhere. It’s not one application; it’s many. With
Bluetooth wireless technology, our options are endless. It’s where we’d most
expect it and where we’d least expect it—and everywhere in between. It
adapts to how we work and how we live, transforming everyday tasks into
everyday solutions. Surprising, nimble, ubiquitous. Seeking new applications
and finding new opportunities—everywhere we turn.
Technically,
Bluetooth is a specification for the use of low-power radio communications to wirelessly link phones, computers and other network devices over short distances. The name "Bluetooth" is borrowed from Harald Bluetooth, who was a king in Denmark more than 1,000 years ago
(Computer people choose the strangest names!). Bluetooth technology was designed primarily to support simple wireless networking of personal consumer devices and peripherals, including cell phones, PDAs,
and wireless headsets.

 Note
About Cell Phone
Expansion Memory!
Many cellular phones come with a slot
for expansion memory, such as: Mini or MicroSD, MemoryStick Micro, or
others. Expansion memory is a great way to safeguard photos, contact
lists, and other files. On our product pages, we may show photos or
diagrams of how this memory is inserted and used with the phone for
informational purposes, since we try to be as comprehensive in our
explanation of each phone's features and functions as possible.
However, additional expansion memory cards are NOT included with the phone
(unless explicitly stated).
Remember, regardless of the
brand of your phone, use only compatible micro/mini SD, or memory stick
cards, approved by your phone's manufacturer for use with your device. This
is because not all expansion memory is designed for the same specifications
(such as read/write speeds and capacity). Incompatible cards may
damage the card and the device and corrupt data stored on the card.
Also, when inserting a memory
card into your phone, your phone may prompt to format the memory card.
When a memory card is reformatted, all data on the card is permanently lost.
Some memory cards are supplied preformatted and others require formatting.
Consult your memory card's user guide to find out if you must format the
memory card before you can use it. If you are using a memory card in
your phone that was used on another device, such as a digital camera, or a
PC, exercise caution as viruses can be transferred in this way. Never
insert a memory card into a computer that does not have up-to-date antivirus
software. Only open files on the memory card that are known safe.
When in doubt, insert the card in a compatible computer and run a antivirus
scan.

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT RETURNS ON CELL PHONES:

In these cases we will issue a return authorization and EXCHANGE the damage phone for a like or similar model depending on availability, provided the serial number matches.

We know it might've been an accident, but whether it suffered a small splash of water or a swim in an ocean, we can't take it back.
