The LG Cookie KP500 is a budget touch-screen mobile phone, costing (without a SIM card) around £100. This makes it a cheap mobile phone featuring touch-screen technology. LG mobile phones generally are marketed to budget users.

The LG Cookie KP500 is 4.19 by 2.18 by 0.47 inches, weighing just 3.14 ounces. It has a battery life of 3.5 hours of talk time and 15 days standby time. Its touch-screen is resistive, has a resolution of 240 x 400 pixels and is 3 inches large. The mobile phone’s camera has a resolution of 3 megapixels. Multimedia features include MPEG4, MP3 and FM radio. The memory slot has an inbuilt capacity of 48 MB. Internet connectivity is WAP 2.0 and the mobile phone has USB 2.0 and 2.1 stereo Bluetooth.

The LG Cookie KP500’s main selling point is that it looks and feels more expensive than it actually is. The touch-screen is of a good quality and pictures can be displayed both horizontally and vertically by turning the handset.

The fact that the touch-screen is resistive can lead to some annoyance, as it requires more effort to operate than a capacitive screen. The mobile phone lacks 3G, Wi-Fi and GPS, detracting from its overall functionality.
