Lack of expandable memory; 1.3-megapixel camera; external music controls can be fiddly to use
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The LG KG810 Chocolate Folder is undeniably a sexy-looking phone. Holding and using it is not only an enjoyable experience, but one that you don't mind sharing with onlookers. Unfortunately, some of the feature set is a little lacklustre compared with the competition, and if you're looking for style and substance then you might want to test it out before you buy
LG KG810 (Chocolate Folder) History
15 Dec 2006 in Digital Living
LG's KG810 Chocolate Folder takes the smooth glossy front, dark colours and touch-sensitive keys of the original Chocolate phone, the KG800, and folds them in half. Is it edible origami or sicklier than a chocolate seashell?

The mysterious LG KG810 is available to buy now, but it's not part of the Black Label Series, even if it looks a lot like the Chocolate phone
