LG KS360 – Is it a toy?
June 19, 2008 by Meraj Chhaya
Filed under LG
Seeing that this comment page is flooded, let's move the discussion over to the forum where you should get some real help! Click here to head over to the thread.
It's not just the weird looks, but the specifications are just weird. You would expect a QWERTY phone to be directed to business phones, but ok, let's say that this phone has such a keyboard for teenagers. But still a full keyboard should atleast have a touchscreen, a better camera, 3G, and it shouldn't look like a toy!
Specifications after the jump.
LG KS360 technical specifications:
- 2.4" display with QVGA resolution (320x240 pixels)
- Triband GSM with EDGE
- 2 megapixel camera
- Video player
- FM Radio
- Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP
- USB 2.0

It has Bluetooth and USB, so you should be able to
GABSTA DA GANGSTA on Fri, 17th Oct 2008 11:26 am
OMG as soon as i saw it i said OMG IM GETTIN IT!!!!!
Joey Sabey on Sat, 18th Oct 2008 3:10 am
A better camera? Yeah, sounds like I really should. My phone is probably at least a year old now, and has a 5MP camera…
3G? I'm not so hot on the subject, don't even know if my phone is or not, tbh. Doesn't seem to be a major issue for me, I guess…
But… Touch screen? No, that's a joke. I wouldn't -expect- any phone to have a touch screen. =P
Looks a pretty smart phone, and I'd -love- a QWERTY keyboard, but the shitty camera is a killer for me.
kiki on Mon, 20th Oct 2008 9:22 pm
i have this phone i have had it for a couple of weeks now i got it for my 13th birthday i think it GREAT!
thecamera is actually very good considering its a 2 mega pixel camera many of my freinds have phones with 3 or 5 mega pixel cameras and my camera is considerably better lg cameras are very good and the free access to facebook and other social networking sites it realy cool texting is fast and the look and layout of the phone is stylish
kiki on Mon, 20th Oct 2008 9:25 pm
the pink and white version is a lot nicer than the red and black one its prettier and the wjite is pearlised so it looks very nice this coulor is not as nice

DAn on Wed, 22nd Oct 2008 2:20 pm
Fair enough that it is lacking in features, but for it's price point, it is very good value. It introduces those with less cash to qwerty sms mesaging.
Nicole on Tue, 28th Oct 2008 11:59 am
Helloo

Viper1 on Wed, 29th Oct 2008 8:01 pm
This doesn't look like a toy and first of all LOOK AT THE PRICE RANGE!Of course it doesnt have 3G or a good camera but for it's price its already very good!So what its a full keyboard???That doesn't mean it's a business phone??!
becca on Sat, 1st Nov 2008 3:34 pm

thanks, ;D
daaaaaaaaaani on Wed, 5th Nov 2008 2:38 pm
thats because in the picture its red not pink
you can only get this colour online i think because ive looked in all the stores and they only have the baby pink or blue one.

I have been looking at the last 59 comments and they are all varied. Roughly 50% of those children were looking for answers and you reply by saying 'I havn't got it i don't know' or just 'I expect so?' I am not certain but my thought is that you are not qualified to give information. Sorry but that is my opinion. Good luck and I hope you have learnt something and will inprove. Please feel free to write back. Thank you.

Thank you for your comment, I definitely appreciate any type of criticism.
As you might be aware, journalists do not usually reply to comments, unless they have complex thoughts which should be addressed.
I am not going to formulate statistics, but most of the comments have answers that are in the article itself, or in other comments. When I am not aware of certain information, I am not embarrassed to say that “I do not know”. I definitely encourage research, but I cannot research for each and every of the 60 comments.
I do not work for LG or any other manufacturer or software developer. I am a journalist at PhoneReport who provides information into what I have researched. It is up to readers to formulate thoughts on the article, but if there are sensible questions, I will attend to them.
If I have missed any sensible comment, I do apologize and encourage readers to contact me or any of my colleagues to point out such fault.
Once again, thank you for your comment, and have a nice weekend!

Hayley-Lou on Sat, 15th Nov 2008 3:19 am
No I think it is a brilliant phone I totally disagree with you. Even if it does look like a toy, it obviously aint bcoz why are they sold out everywhere?
meraj on Sat, 15th Nov 2008 7:23 am
I know it's not a toy, but that is because it is targeted at the younger audience.

Hi,
I love this phone. I think it would be a great Chrismas presant for my kids. This phone also makes it easier to text…..I wouldn't mind getting one for myself!
Rose.
Annaliese on Fri, 21st Nov 2008 1:56 am
You can tell alot of these people are teenagers by their little abreviations for everything, even though i'm a teenager aswell haha.
I know what you mean though, i don't think it wouldn't be a very good phone in the long run due to the amount memory and the camera. But then again i still think it would be a good phone for teenagers who get a new phone every two seconds, or someone who wants something 'cool' and doesn't use their phone all that often.
And your right, it does look a bit like a toy!

Hi okay this is the truth – I used to love this phone and think it looked reli nice. I also loved the qwerty keyboard – Nice design! ANYway I thought of getting it but then I showed it to my dad. He said that it had a two megapixal camera, Not Good. Terrible, terrible memory. People said it holds like a few bad HQ pictures – THATS ALL. But my friend doesn't beleive me. Meraij can you please tell me what memory this phone has so I can prove it too my friend. Thank you Abbie
meraj on Sun, 23rd Nov 2008 9:42 am

I thought your comment was quite rude – hmm. Anyway I did look through the comments and I know it has that memory thank you very much – but is that 15MB memory any good because I don't know if thats any good. Comments say it's rubbish and gr8. Confused
jaycellle on Tue, 25th Nov 2008 4:31 am

Piet on Thu, 27th Nov 2008 10:30 am
i hav it now and i have to say it's not bad but not more than not bad !
it has a few games but they're not very good (excepting sudoku, its fun). the camera should be 3.2 mp, 2 mp isnt very much, the quality isnt good enough. th qwerty-keyboard is fun and its faster than on other mobile phones. you can listen to music and the loudspeakers can go extremly loud, thats really cool. the phone-memory isnt big enough for 7 songs but, well, just buy a memory-card. In the whole: buy it if you think you have to it won't be a mistake, but if you're not sure take another one^^.
Piet on Thu, 27th Nov 2008 10:35 am
no you cant!
