But just because it's "cool" doesn't necessarily make it a great phone. We've all heard the story of the "cheap" mobile phone offering more features than expensive designer label models. So - the ultimate question is: does the LG KE850 Prada buck the trend and offer intelligence and exceptional functionality under the hood, or is it just a pretty piece of plastic to look at?

You'll have to find out what we think below.

LG KE850 Prada Specifications & Features

Phone Features
The LG KE850 Prada is a fully touch enabled smart phone with no keypad, and only 4 navigation buttons at the bottom. These buttons allow you to quickly get to the vital features of the device, including the phone and the home screen.

Speaking of the phone, the LG KE850 Prada is compatible with all GSM carriers throughout the world (examples of these include AT&T and T-Mobile) as well as "Vodafone" in many countries.

The battery provides enough power to last for 3 hours of continuous talk time (which is actually not the best) but to redeem this rather short attention span, it does survive for 300 hours on standby.

Camera & Storage
This unlocked cell phone comes standard with a 2MP camera, which is not bad considering the price. It is the only phone of its type at this price to offer a fully inbuilt video / camcorder function also - and the Schneider Kreuznach optics make the experience truly legendary.

As for storage, the phone itself is rather limited in this respect, and if you're not using a Micro card expansion, you'll probably only be able to take 100 photos of so until you run out of space.

Thankfully, to counter this downside, the phone does have Bluetooth support built in, so you can easily offload graphics and media to your computer.

Style
The LG KE850 Prada is the epitome is style, still to this very day. The phone was released a number of years ago, and since then it still maintains its spot as the only "Prada" sponsored and endorsed phone on the market.

Fashion lovers will certainly know what this means. Thankfully - the functionality of the phone has not been overlooked, and the style and features truly do come together to create a wonderful piece of telecommunications technology.

Overall Conclusion on LG KE850 Prada Unlocked Mobile Phone
For an unlocked cell phone the LG KE850 Prada is certainly a competitive piece of technology - especially at this price. It is by far the best fully touch screen model that we have reviewed in the price range, and therefore we have no qualms about highly recommending it with 5 stars.

My Experience With The LG KP500 Cookie:
Well, this Cookie from LG is INDEED delicious!

You see, I'm someone who travels frequently - back to the United Kingdom, and this phone works excellently for me. Since the LG KP500 Cookie is a Quad Band and GSM phone, it means I can grab a removable sim card that I can use as a pay as you go phone when I'm at the UK, and then switch it back to my usual sim card when I'm in the United States.

HOWEVER, you are only limited to AT&T as well as T Mobile in the United States since the other carriers are NOT compatible with GSM phones. I'm not really sure why.

The LG KP500 Cookie that bought in the UK comes with an adapter for 110 v as well as 220 v charging - which is nice since...allowing you to charge up when you are in other countries. Along with that, the LG KP500 Cookie comes with a screen protector and the casing itself feels great - it looks classy and durable...NOT cheap.

The touchscreen of the LG KP500 Cookie is bright and very easy to navigate. The inclusion of the stylus perfectly fits the base of the phone - making it handy when you are text messaging. The LG KP500 Cookie also comes with a slot for a Micro SD card up to 8 GB. This is more than enough for storing MP3s, photos, videos, and those are just to name a few.

One minor issue - the headphones supplied with the phone are NOT as good especially when it comes to listening to music. I really would prefer having the ability to use third party phones.

Now onto the camera - the quality isn't great BUT good enough. It's just like any phone cameras - the quality is a little grainy. And I really don't use it that much since I have a high quality digital camera for taking pictures while on the go so this is NOT an issue at all for me.

Wrapping things up - the LG KP500 Cookie is a little phone that is more affordable and less heavy and bulky than the legendary iPhone. Should you need accessories for it, eBay is a nice place you should go to. Matter of fact, I just grabbed a leather case that suits it perfectly along with a car charger. I've been using it for about 7 months now and I'm pleased with it!

Oh! One last thing - check out the phones latest firmware, which as far as I know is V10n. That will make your LG KP500 Cookie a lot better. While the install is a little tricky and can be done only on a Windows Operating System, it's well worth the effort - it increases the LG KP500 Cookie's performance by a mile!
