LG, a pioneer in the cell phone industry, has really outdone itself with the LG U8200 model. With this phone, users can enjoy real time face to face communication. Imagine the possibilities of a feature like that! Still, the U8200 has a whole lot more to offer than just the face to face communication innovation.

For example, the LG U8200 flip phone doubles as a portable media player, enabling users to download and enjoy MP3, AAC and MPEG4 files. The PC synchronization capabilities of the U8200 combined with the organizer feature will erase the need for an expensive portable digital assistant. The phone is also Java enabled and games come already loaded to the device, free of charge. If the user ever gets tired of the pre-loaded games, additional ones can be downloaded.

The U8200 also comes equipped with a powerful 1.3 megapixel camera with a 180 degree rotating lens. The flash feature will help you to take the best pictures possible, even in less than ideal conditions. When still photos just aren’t enough, users can start taking video footage with the phone. People constantly on the go will enjoy the web browsing capabilities of the U8200 that allows users to check their email accounts from just about anywhere.

Including the battery, the U8200 weighs only 125 grams and measures an astonishing 24 millimeters thick. The graphics that can be pictured on the external display are among the best found in the entire LG cell phone line, showing 65,000 colors in all their glory.

The LG U8200 mobile phone has a fairly large internal memory capacity, but when the pictures and video get to be too much they can be transferred to an external memory thanks to the miniSD card slot. Up to 10 each of the latest outgoing, received and lost calls are automatically saved to the phone for easy reference.

It has a pop-op option screens and list of settings. When there’s an incoming call, you just tap the center and slips up if you want to accept it and slide down if not. When you’re in the middle of a call and you want to hang up, you slide it from left to right.

Some of the best qualities of this phone include adding your favorites in the Favorites pane, allowing you easy access. And you’re not at all limited to adding in the general buttons, it can be very specific right down to a favorite button for sending a messafe to a specific person.

There are also a lot of features that are similar to that of an iPhone, like it lets you browse easily through the images in a grid form, and it also includes the videos you took.

A lot of people actually prefer the Samsung Instinct over other touch-screen phones and regard it as one of the best so far.
