We're not quite sure what possessed LG to name the KG800 'Chocolate', but it is easily the best-looking phone in this test. It's shiny, black and has a superb slide-open action. There are no buttons on the outside of the handset; instead, the front surfa...

This is not something to eat, in the early summer LG launched their black phone, now in late summer their white phone and I understand later in the year a shocking pink one is to follow.

No one needs an introduction to the presence of LG in the mobile markets. They seem to be doing quite well with regards to CDMA handsets. The only GSM model that did manage to sell a lot before was a clamshell, namely the LG M4410. Now, the company has...

Very Stylish, Sleek exteriors, Great gloss finish, Good screen, Neat touchpad, Very light, Good battery life, USB, 128 MB inbuilt memory, 1.3 MP camera, Flash, Bluetooth.

The taste of the LG chocolate can last for hours. It has an amazing battery life. The phone takes about 2 hours to recharge fully and can work without a charge for 2 days with average call periods. The battery is a Li-Ion 800 mAh. The battery is attac...

Sounds a bit odd, doesn't it, that a handset should be given the name ‘chocolate'. The name is meant to enhance the idea that this mobile phone is more than ‘just' the fashion statement status to which many handsets aspire. It is being positioned as a pho...

In the end, the Chocolate KG800 is much more style than substance. I found using the touch pad a bit irritating - accidentally pressing its keys when using the handset with the slider open is very annoying. Also, the handset's amazing ability to pick up g...

It’s fair to say that LG’s new slider phone fancies itself just a little bit. And although it’s in our nature to take any phone which has been cockily nicknamed Chocolate and knock it down a peg or three, we have to begrudgingly admit th...

A quite stunning design and finish. Ultra stylish.

A lack of expandable memory is a let-down. Some will struggle with the one-touch control.

This phones great looks and tactile qualities are the selling point and it really should be a hit for that alone.

Problems with navigation – the direction keys and the OK key are easily pressed in error which leads to mistakes, The display cannot be read in bright light, No slot for memory card, The Music player has very little capabilities and a fake graphic equalizer.

Overall the Chocolate achieves its aim of being a fashion phone – it grabs the attention with the stylish combination of black and red, with a modern slider design, well-made and featuring a comfortable keypad. It's a pity that functionality suffers be...

With a killer design and a feature set above most other handsets in its class, the LG KG800 Chocolate is taking the European market by storm. We give this stunner a workout in our review, and find a few floors that need to be overcome.

Poor Bluetooth implementation, unresponsive text editor, no speakerphone or voice dialing...

In the end, the LG KG800 is somewhat of a mixed blessing. I really wanted to give this phone a Highly Recommended rating, as it is truly one of the best fashion phones I have laid eyes on. Not just because of its killer design, either - functionality w...
