We like:
Attractive design; large colour screen; attractive user interface; world clock; FM radio
We don't like:
Texting can be awkward; glossy surfaces attract fingerprints and face grease
CNET.co.uk judgement:
For a first-time collaboration between LG and Prada, this phone is a significant achievement that will get you noticed whenever you use it. Indeed, this is one of the most attractive handsets that we have seen so far, and while it's not perfect in every area, it keeps LG firmly at the top of the fashion phone market
