The mp3 player is pretty nice, it has EQ support, playlists and a selection of 3 visualizations.

There is a pretty capable media player that can playback mp3, AAC, 3GP and MP4 (only MPEG4-ISMA works, in its “Basic” flavor). The phone comes with 4 profiles, a pretty good contact list (with speed dial and caller group support), an elaborate call list and more. The handset is able of SMS, MMS and voice mail, but no email. You will find every phone application one would expect, a Calendar, Tasks, Alarm, unit converter, calculator, file manager, Java Midp 2.0 games. The KG800 boots up pretty fast, about 4-5 seconds from power up to the main screen. When you do that, the camera gets exposed too. It is very easy to slide up the phone and uncover the numeric keypad underneath it. The handset has volume +/- controls on the left side and a “hang-up/close” button on the right side, an LG proprietary hook for the USB cable and a camera/mp3 button. The box that came with it included an Asian power adapter with a US adapter as an addon, manuals, a USB cable and a wired headset remote control with a 3.5mm adapter (so you can use the included headphones or your own). The phone does not have EDGE or a card slot, and yet it’s marketed as a music phone. The main feature that sets it apart from other phones is its touch-sensitive navigation keys with backlights. It comes with Bluetooth 1.2 (transfer rate maxed out at 30 KB/sec), an 1.3 MP camera with flash, 128 MB internal memory partitioned (some is in the phone’s file system and the rest is using FAT for the mp3 partition) and an 176×220 screen. It is very small, lite (83 gr) and it feels really nice and solid in the user’s hands. Our friends over at Hi-Mobile sent us in for a review two items this last week: the velerable LG Chocolate KG800 and an add-on camera flash accessory for Sony Ericsson fast-port phones.
