What is it: Music-centric phone with a scroll wheel navigation system
What we think: The scroll wheel works well, providing an easy way to navigate through menus and tracks -- but the scratching feature is a gimmick

We like:
Scroll wheel; stereo Bluetooth (A2DP); expandable memory; easy-to-use keypad; 3G connectivity; speakerphone mode
We don't like:
Fingerprint-attracting casing; keys dedicated to 3 network features; no FM radio
You might also need:
Stereo Bluetooth headphones
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The easy-to-use LG U400 might lack the finesse of its Chocolate sibling, but it comes into its own with its scroll wheel to navigate through menus and tracks, its 3G connectivity and its expandable memory slot. Unfortunately, some of its simplicity is tarnished by 3's dedicated soft keys, which can't be changed and get in the way
