Reviewed by Jen McK on 05/07/2008Had my Prada for over a year now, do not even want to upgrade like i normally do. only fault i can find with the prada is that its practically impossible to see the screen in daylight. Rating: Reviewed by Chinthe65 on 05/07/2008 Certainly the best phone I've had to date. I've had 9 Nokias in the last five years, and n one have matched this for usability, functionality and...yes, looks! Rating: Reviewed by mrs ellis on 03/07/2008 dont buy this phone it is a nightmare,when you dial a number and then need to press a number for extensions this is a nightmare to do you end up touching loads of numbers as you try to listen, the phone reception is terrible, and it brakes easly with the power button, the light also on the screen is not good looks nice for a while but is terrible for a phone Rating:  Reviewed by mark on 28/06/2008 Had this phone about year or so. its rubbish...when you press 1 for voicemail, then put it to your ear, be careful your ear can operate touch tone and accidentally press 3 for delete. Scratches easily and prada logo wears off. At first it appears great but in time no good I'm affraid. So much so I looking at N82 or soul Take this advice Rating: Reviewed by tanvir on 27/06/2008 luv this phone bu its not beta den iphone mi email ta_tany@msn.com xxx Rating: Reviewed by Sara on 12/06/2008 I've had the phone for well over 5 months now and I'm trading it in, It took me a while to admit to myself that style isn't everything, after having to turn it off 5 times in one day to restart it. The touchscreen either freezes or doesn't work at all, when using SMS, the sticks on one letter, making you have to go back and delete and start over. After a month or two, the Prada shows its true colours. Rating: Reviewed by anna on 12/06/2008 it looks great but the price is ridiculous for what you get. the camera is only 2 mega pixels and not that great, and the touch screen makes texting really fiddly! also the battery life isn't that good and you can't store much music on it! i wish i got a cheaper phone with better features, but its too late to do anything about it now. i think its really overrated for what it actually is; people only like it as its 'prada' branded, which is one of the reasons i bought it to be honest! Rating: Reviewed by HADJER KARDACHIAN on 09/06/2008 i like ce fone Rating: Reviewed by cc on 06/06/2008 Ive had 2 of these phones now in 3 weeks. the first one i had to return due to the fact the leather case that comes with the phone scratched both sides of the interface and somehow the screen. due to the fact i have not dropped the phone this is the only logical explanation, and when i take it back the store simply says theres nothing they can do even if they wanted to! so whats the point in giving the leather case as the guy in the store admitted he knew the case had done it? i wont deny the phone is stylish and a gorgeous phone to have, so ive fought it and got myself another one, this time ive bought one of the plastic clear cases, which i find protects the phone much better. i did not want a different phone as i find this one is one ofthe best i have purchased in a while. i just cand understand the case, i dont expect anyone elses has done the same? Rating: Reviewed by Elz on 06/06/2008 I havn't had my Prada for very long...this is actually my 3rd handset cause on the previous ones the date kept changing which is very odd!!! but since i've had this one its been great! i love the way it looks, feels and is so good technically! the only downside i can think of is the fact that it can only hold mp3's which if yur a music lover like me can get very annoyin! but i've just had to find mp3's but thats alrite! i would definitely recommend buying one because it's amazing! also the texting is fine, especially predictive! Rating: Reviewed by prada user on 05/06/2008 its a nice fone but textin is quite the bitch! if you use ur thumb, like i do, u'll develop arthritis in about 10 secs! its a nice looking fone, nice layout and fairly responsive touchscreen but dont expect ipod touch style elegance! overall, an ok fone and dirt cheap considering im paying £80 in total over 12 months for 700 mins and 250 texts ;) Rating: Reviewed by Natalie (UK) on 05/06/2008 Heya i got this phone for my 17th bday. Its fantastic. If ur looking for a touch screen phone then this is the phone for you!! i texts really good u can have it like a keyboard on a computer! how kool! theres also touch pad for dialing. really gud quality camera and video camera! Voice recording is really clear! storage alone just on the 256mb memory card is not gud if ur a music, photo and video fan but ive just purchase an 8gb memory card on the internet for £26! thats sure to keep me going for a lifetime! Games on this phone is really gud too so if ur bored travelling check them out. Gud themes! Really interesting text alerts it sings "Youve got mail" Has also Got mp3 player, FM radio, Alarm CLock (which ive set now twice and hasnt went off so take special care with that) world clock, unit convertor, and also blue tooth. Any more questions please write bk x Rating: Reviewed by jack on 04/06/2008 I had this fone fo 4 weeks and i sold it 1/2 price.its sooooo big piece of rubbish.Screen wont work normally. camera sucks also. Rating: Reviewed by Nisha on 26/05/2008 I really hated this phone, it was soo annoying, the texting really got on my nerves i was forever having to correct the mistakes. I had never actually picked up a phone call as you forget about the lock button and you end up missing the call. The camera was good for 2MP. the MP3 player was loud. But not a practial phone having no keypad drove me nuts. I really dont like touch screens anymore. Rating: Reviewed by Natasha on 24/05/2008 Have got it on contract for a year, and am not happy at all. I exprerienced problems while texting, as the capital letters do not respond to the touch screen. When the earphone wire is plugged in, the mobile would go off. Eventually, had it changed by carphone. The next Prada does the same- problems typing the text, and moreover, the alarm does not work. Real pain. Can't wait to get rid of it. Looks good though. Rating: Reviewed by Miss Katiiee on 21/05/2008 bought lg prada sliver for my b day its g8 Rating: Reviewed by Elles on 18/05/2008 Well..What Can I Say? I Cannot Live Without This Thing! The Only Problem Is That It Is Not Very Robust.. So Being Dropped Does Not Suit This Phone As The Touch Screen Is Now Bust But Im Sure Fixable.. I Love This Phone And Its Quick Texting Reactions =] Very Pleased =] X Rating: Reviewed by chloe on 18/05/2008 an amazing phone ... couldnt be happier!!! Rating: Reviewed by snakebyte on 16/05/2008 One stunning phone. Texting is a breeze once you adapt to the feel for the touch-screen. I've had no problems with battery life and the fact that it is memory free is a bonus because it means you can top-up the charge anytime without fear of damaging it. I live in a low signal strength area but found that the handset is more receptive than my previous phone..A motorola v3i. Only downside for me is the inability to customize a lot of the features. Overall though, full marks to LG. Rating: Reviewed by Phoebe on 14/05/2008 I love my phone, I think the battery life is fantastic! The camera is faster at responding than the supposedly "just like a camera" LG Viewty. The design is well built and sturdy. I've dropped the phone a million times now and it is still intact minus the few scratches. I find the touchscreen really easy to use and overall I think it's so much better than the LG Viewty just for the ease of use, look and practicality. The only issue is that if you have long nails or are used to pressing things with your nails, the phone doesn't respond because it only responds to fingertips, that is stressful when I have my acrylics on compared to the LG Viewty which responds to both fingertip and stylus/nails. But overall, I really like my LG Prada! Rating: Reviewed by fnjkdl on 13/05/2008 wow wee this phone is the most trendiest phone out there but also fills all of ur needs!The textin is soooo easy its better than any other phone!the ear phones n mp3 player with it are better than a audinary mp3 or ipod u can make it so loud! if u were lookin 4 a new phone to buy this is defenitly is the 1 u i wud really consider buying it i av ad it 7 weeks n not had any problems!! Rating: Reviewed by Liz on 12/05/2008 I love this phone, just got it on a 18 month contract and its worth the money. However, when I am texting, the 4 and the 9 do not work properly, they do not seem to sense my touch. Apart from that, and the fact that the screen scratches very easily, it is an amazing phone! Rating: Reviewed by Emma && Laura on 07/05/2008 wow!:O amazin The Best Fone Ever!!!! Emma && Laura =) Rating: Reviewed by Vanessa on 05/05/2008 It is lovely! Rating: Reviewed by Vanessa on 04/05/2008 I like it! Rating: Reviewed by Lydia on 02/05/2008 I got the phone brand new and absolutly loved it the minute i had it...unfortuntaly due to my own careless and blondeness i lost it that evening whilst out and whilst waiting for a new one to come on insurance have been miising it SO much! I love it....what a brilliant phone!! Rating: Reviewed by tasha on 01/05/2008 had the fone 2 days and i love it, its lovely and stylish and it easy to use!! the only downside is the battery life but alot of phiones are like that hese days, i can live with it! Rating: Reviewed by Mr. G on 30/04/2008 This phone has style and class but its not particularly practical. If you use your phone to text, this phone is not a good choice. The silly little wallet that is suplied with this phone should be utilised if you don't wish your screen to resemble an ice rink within a few days. Great name, but like the clothes not always the best fit! Rating: Reviewed by sara on 21/04/2008 this phone is amazing ive had it 4 weeks and the only downside is the battery but that is if you use it all day its fantastic!!!!!!!!! Rating: Reviewed by Lewiss on 21/04/2008 Had the prada phone now for 7 months and what a let down the camara quality is poor. But then again i did not get the Prada phone for the camara. The phone and the touch screen freaze from time to time so you have to shut down the phone and reboot it. The Battery life is very very poor i have to charge it almost everynight. Taking a photo, using bluetooth or having a colourfull background picture or profile really drains battery life to a large extent Rating: Reviewed by Bode Alade on 20/04/2008 My LG prada is kind of slick and aswell a little bit complicated to operate, but its mine and i love it. Rating: Reviewed by k elliott on 19/04/2008 i have had my lg prada for 32 days in that time it has frozen while i have been talking to my friend the touch pads have also locked while texting.i bought the prada from phones4u,who because it was past 28 days since purchase refused to refund or exchange the phone has anyone had same problem with their prada Rating: Reviewed by Charlotte on 19/04/2008 I have had this phone for atleast 3 months now, and its completey rubbish, the memory is POOR! Rating: Reviewed by Jan H on 18/04/2008 Gr8 looking phone, admired by everyone, generally good to use, but if you are listening to voicemails your ear can easily erase messages. When phoning and having to select the 'department #' you need, often your ear is pressing numbers without you knowing! Quite annoying. I've had the phone 18mths and am now looking to buy something else without a touchscreen. Its got to be easier! Rating: Reviewed by Bill on 18/04/2008 Awful phone Unresponive bad texting battery life awful I suggest getting the motorola f3 Its only 10 pounds and has an amazing camera with it! 7 mega pixels and 200 gb memory Rating: Reviewed by Louise on 13/04/2008 I bought my Prada phone a month ago. NIGHTMARE!! The first day I got it I tried to set the alarm, but it didn't go off as the date on the the display kept changing back to the date of the day before! STRANGE! This kept happening on numerous occassions at random times during the day so I brought the phone back to the store I bought it in. They offered to send it off for a software upgrade but as I had only had it 1 week I asked them to just exchange it for a new one for me, which they did. 3 days later, the same thing stated happening with this phone! I brought the 2nd one back to the shop and this time opted for it to be sent off for the software upgrade. It was gone for 2 weeks but when I got it back I was delighted. Screen was much more responsive and no random date changes occurred!! However, when using the phone this evening, while texting I was using the T9 predictive text and when I tried to change the word I was trying to spell, the whole page of text kept be ing cleared!! I also had written a message and saved it in the 'Drafts' folder and when I went to send it, a couple of hours later, I couldn't find it!! I hadn't selected a recipient, and it wasn't in my outbox or my sent folder. I don't think I was meant to own one of these phones, and as beautiful as it is, I'll be bringing it back tomorrow and getting a nice reliable Nokia instead! Rating: Reviewed by Edward Goodes on 12/04/2008 had this phoner a year ow.Cant wait to chop it in.Dropped the first one after a week an broke th screen. All i can say is get the insurance you'll need it with this toilet peice of kit. Rating: Reviewed by Nadina on 12/04/2008 It's an annoying phone, if touch screen is for you, you'll enjoy it. If not i.e. if you love to text, DO NOT get this phone. If you make a mistake you have to go back and its a nightmare if you want to text fast. Also, internal memory is rubbish and if you got it on a 12 or 18 month contract and scratch the screen accidently, you've got to look at that scratch for 18 months! You have to keep the plastic over on it, or get a cover as soon as you get it! I've now got the nokia 6500 slide...best phone in the world! Rating: Reviewed by clurrz on 05/04/2008 iv only had the phone for 2 days now but i simply love it... ive had a million phones before and am anxious to see how it functions in the long run. suggestion for scraches.. if you are using the case all u have to do to prevent damage to the phone is to use screen protector... u can get it from any store i have it on my ipod touch and its in perfect condition due to the screen protector... phone looks realy sexy and its realy light use to use a Nokia before this so im still getting use to touch screen Rating: Reviewed by Craig on 02/04/2008 Ive had the phone 2 days, and its amazing, looks gr8 and i cn text very easily as i thoguht it would be really hard... but the amount of wallpapers and ringtones isnt much, but im going to download some if any1 knows where i can get them from???? also the batery life is fine if you dont leave your bluetooth on... i got the silver prada and i get alot of free stuff wiv it... including memory cards and a silver leather case. but i was having trouble with the bluetooth it wudnt let me connect wiv my m8s sony ericson???? but connects wiv my old motorola???? so overall a very good phone... i got it cheap for £150. plz reply if you no where to Download Pics And Ringtones... or why the Bluetooth Isnt Connecting With Certain Phones???? Thanx Rating: Reviewed by alysha on 31/03/2008 this is the most annoying phone on the planet its the buttons they aare annoy ing you try and dial a number an you try type 0 and you end up pressing 8 its really horrible its gets me mood swings byuy it if you want but if your like me i wouldn't i swear down but its your choice Rating: Reviewed by AH on 30/03/2008 All reviewers that have given this phone 5 stars have only had it for less than a week! I have had this horror for 8 months and it is truly aweful! Here are the main shortfalls- 1-the "special" case scratches the screen!! People have to fight with LG to get their phones replaced because of this. 2-The touchscreen stops responding often. 3-the interface is buggy and VERY slow. For example, the backlight just turns off sometimes while you are still typing a message. 5-the camera takes over one second to capture a photograph. 6-message memory is low. 7-general usability is laughable- shows LG have no clue when it comes to designing a stress-free experience for a mobile. For example, when a call ends, because the loudspeaker is located in the same place as the earspeaker, a loud noise is produced telling you the call ended, which is so annoying when you aren't expecting it! 8-if you want to show off with this phone-the prada logo on the front rubs off!! 9- cheap feel of case and design. Don't know why Prada would associate itself with such a terrible piece of kit! It's in the bargain bins now. LG are renowned for cheapness, this is no exception. Well worth avoiding! Rating: Reviewed by Paris on 26/03/2008 I love my Prada phone, however I have lost the software disc and need to install om mt new PC. Can anyone advise were I can get a disc or a software download. Thanks Rating: Reviewed by natasha owens on 26/03/2008 Just got the Prada phone on Saurday and I have to say I like it very much. Its easy to use, although when trying to access peoples numbers from the phone book you end up selecting numbers you dont want,and so far thats the only complaint I have. It takes a while allbeit a very short while to get used to the touvh screen, as it is sensitive. I would recommend this phone to anyone, its chic, easy to use, camera is absolutley fine. In all, its well worth the money, and to think all my friends tried to deter me from buying an LG. I can only assume its THE Prada touch that has made this an exciting, irrestiable product. Rating: Reviewed by Emily on 10/03/2008 Personally.. i got this phone for my birthday.. it has its ups and downs. but its fit! and everybody likes the look of prada... but the downs, memorys low, ringtone lasts for 10secs, the instrution manual isnt very easy to read. my date changes to the day before all the time. Ermm... its slick and fashionable... it could do with a bigger memory thats my main issue really... Rating: Reviewed by debbie on 09/03/2008 i have the prada on contract an i have to say im really pleased with it, an i was a bit dubious of getting a touch screen but have found it fairly easy though i dont text much, although has stated you do need slender fingers for it overall i give it a 9 out of 10 an thats only cos it does tend to smudge so have to keep wipeing it,but you do get a prada cloth so not bad Rating: Reviewed by sharelle & megan on 09/03/2008 the perfect fhone Rating: Reviewed by JM on 09/03/2008 worst phone ever. poor storage, 4-6 ringtones max. touch screen freezes and it takes forever to text. utter rubbish Rating: Reviewed by jefrey bob on 03/03/2008 this is the best phone i ever sceen the pictures are fantastic and it looks so cool (*_*) Rating: Reviewed by prada on 02/03/2008 love it Rating: Reviewed by Stacey on 02/03/2008 Being that LG are a good brand and that PRADA make top quality products...i was very disappointed when they put their heads together to design a phone. Firsts few months of owning this phone were fine, i think it was snobbery more than satisfaction that made me content. But to be honest i wouldn't recommend it. It scratches so quickly, touch type is horrendous. Sometimes the buttons dont work at all especially if the phone is slightly greasy. I miss the trusty sony erickson, which in actual fact im planning to buy to replace the PRADA. Rating: Reviewed by Lucy on 01/03/2008 Got the phone on contract - DON'T DO IT! Now i'm stuck with the thing.... ok yeah it is bam sexy butt does anyone get amazingly annoyed when texting? Does it get stuck and freeze on you? I really have had enough... this is my third, and seriously, the novelty really does wear off! Insurence company has sent me a brand spanking new one which does exactly the same... so going to sell it and buy something different! everyone told me not to get it... they were right!!!!!!! Play on one before you buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Rating: Reviewed by Sarah Dryden on 28/02/2008 I HATE THIS PHONE! It is sooo user unfriendly!! Rating: Reviewed by Giang on 28/02/2008 I also have a problem with the date function on the LG Prada. I usually notice the date has changed when my alarm doesn't work! I've only had the phone for less then a month and thought that I was imagining things until the date keeps on being set a day back. I hope LG comes out with a solution soon because it is really annoying when I use my mobile phone as an alarm clock. Rating: Reviewed by Kevin UK on 28/02/2008 This phone is ok the touch screen takes a while to get used to other than that not a bad phone battery life could be abit better and camera could be much better. Rating: Reviewed by tine on 27/02/2008 When i first got the phone,I was in love with...it was slick and very stylish! but I have to say i was foolish not to read reviews and get minor research (for it is quite expensive). Only 3wiks and not a scratch on the phone...in just a snap it decided not to work and would not turn on. Based on research, this is the most common and biggest problem the phone have. if you have money to burn...go ahead,take the risk and procede with your purchase. Rating: Reviewed by nick on 26/02/2008 Incredible best fone i have ever owned Rating: Reviewed by niro on 24/02/2008 Now to be honest I love this phone. from day 1 up to now. its been nearly 9mnt, no problem whats so ever, except for 1 little hitch. the casing is damaging very fast. first the Prada logo disappears den the silver stripe. My Nokia is 5 years running with all of the buttons and slogens in place. I wonder whether this had happened to any body else. Rating: Reviewed by Terri on 22/02/2008 Had phone 2 weeks and really persisted, but taking back tomorrow to exchange, why? : 1. touch screen too sensative and subsequently too many errors in texting. 2. scrolling for contacts awkward and slow. 3.easily scratched and case horrible.3. entering photos with text too long winded procedure 4.low memory 5. not compatable with BMW bluetooth 6.The automatic lock engages too quick. 7. Too many missed calls, unless you have phone in hand you can barely hear it.8. The slowest predictive text I've ever used. I could go on and on but the truth is this is a phone with all style but no 'body'. Shame Rating: Reviewed by Katie on 22/02/2008 I dont Know if any one eles has this problem but the phone never has any coverage. Its not my network as i sent the phone away to be fix and then after a few days the problem is back. Apart from that i love it Rating: Reviewed by danielle on 19/02/2008 im only 16 and ii saved up for the prada mobile and i love it :( but now my touch screeen isnt working and most of my buttons aswell !! iam getting it fixed and its gonna take about 4 weeks! so the mobile can be quiet sensitive :( or mayb it was just the one i got lol! Rating: Reviewed by Matt on 18/02/2008 Just bought this, is a tight little phone and looks really good, is not a brick at all, does take time to get used to but is good after all, if people would look into the setting they wud realise half the stuff they say is rubbish, like not being able to change a word in t9, yes you can you just click the top of the screen or the volume buttons, these people are stupid, if you think the phone looks nice then buy it, it isnt packed full of features but if you want that then buy a laptop, Rating: Reviewed by Rigo o on 17/02/2008 its a astonishing phone. my only concern is the screen it comes with a leather case that damage its own screen. Rating: Reviewed by Al on 14/02/2008 mmm...does anyone notice your phone getting scratched??? i had mine a round 4 months and it was destroyed with scratches. The case caused the majority of the scratches up and down the screen. Contacted lg and they said its a design fault, so they replaced the screen on the front and the covers on the back but they still handed me back the cover that caused the problem!! Rating: Reviewed by saira on 14/02/2008 i have had the LG PRADA for about 6 months now and i must say when i bought it i loved it and was the envy of all my friends but the novelty soon wears off and now even the word "PRADA" is rubbed off on the phone. The paint on silver edges is chipped and to say that i have looked after the phone and haven't exposed it to any nasty falls etc i didnt expect this from LG. After 4 months of having the phone it looked like a second hand space gadget. I am now looking for a new and better phone.

It is not at all user friendly, and the book might as well be in Korean. I am relying on people in this chatroom to find out how to use it. I will know better next time and get something that might not look so cool but be easier to use!

Rating: Reviewed by Heather on 21/01/2008 I've owned my Prada by LG since last summer and am frustrated beyond words with the texting capability - the T9 dictionary is really limited and awkward, and causes me a lot of annoyance. The number of touch commands you have to make to navigate around the phone are also cumbersome (unless you have smaller finger tips than me maybe). It is well made though and looks great, but yesterday my on/off button failed. All in all, I am disappointed with my Prada phone and would not recommend it to anyone who actually wants to use it as a serious communication device. Rating: Reviewed by ali on 18/01/2008 Do not buy this fone i am on my fourth and now that has froze just like the rest. I have gone out and bought the nokia 5310 xpress now that is a fone. LG prada do not buy u will b very disappointed just like i am. Rating: Reviewed by Tiz on 16/01/2008 I've had this phone for a few months and I can't wait for my contract to finish so I can change it. It's rubbish. It looks nice but the functionality is terrible compared to other phones. My previous two phones were Sony Ericsson's and they were great, I will be going back to them for sure. Don't by this phone unless you just want to pose. Rating: Reviewed by Kath on 10/01/2008 It looks stylish, and it has a good amount of memory but i hate its touch screen Rating: Reviewed by Marjon on 08/01/2008 The prada is great, but after new year I seem to have a problem with the date. Every time I use the alarm the date is set back one day. This is very annoying because I have to set it back every time and the snooze function doesn't work because after it rings once the phone thinks it's yesterday. I don't know if I'm the only one with this problem, but does anyone know how to solve this? (I took one star of for the date-alarm thing) Rating: Reviewed by ELLA BLUE on 03/01/2008 One word GREAT Rating: Reviewed by lanooni on 27/12/2007 its the best mobile phone ever. i have one now cuz my dady is a millionare.

Quite happy with its performance. Touch screen took some getting used to, but the stylis that came with the phone helps. As we are in Korea, the PRADA has the TV channels available as well as the FM. Screen size is perfect for the subway commute. The TV picture is outstanding the sound is adequate without using the earpieces.

The only problem I have with it is that when I access my voice mail, the key pads cannot recognise any optional number that I press. Rating: Reviewed by James on 20/11/2007 I have had the phone for a while and i like the phone however the one major issue that is ticking me off is LG's useless warranty support for there phone.. The case has left marks and scratches on the phone and it really bugs me and yet they say its not a fault with the phone which it is a fault because the case that come with the phone is the one they designed for it.. It's a nice phone however the case that come with the phone use rubbish nothing more then rubbish. They have not thought through the process of designing the case for the phone properly. Rating: Reviewed by JO182 on 20/11/2007 Ive had the LG Prada for 4 month and it looks like ive had it 4 year. The casing is cheap plastic and scratches very easily. If you like to text fast, forget it, its memory is as slow as tortoise. This is very frustrating and your fingers tap repeatidly waiting for the dam text pad to move on. Lg please take a leaf out of Nokias book and use the same housing/fascia as they do. You can have a Nokia for years and it never seems to wear or tear. Im saving up for Nokia 2310. Never again LG. Rating: Reviewed by richard on 16/11/2007 You have got to be joking!!!! I have had this phone for a month and it is without douth the worst phone I have ever owned. If you do a fair amount of texting, forget this thing. Yes they look to business but man are they a pig to use and the options are down right poor. The touch screen just gives you brain damage and scrolling menus is worse than pulling teeth as you continually jump out of the menu!! Do yourself a favour and go buy the N95 as I have and give the Prada to your wife. The N95 cuts this trendy piece of rubbish's lunch!!! Rating: Reviewed by Chels on 14/11/2007 Brill !!!

I had the Lg Shine previously (which sadly broke cause it fell down a very, very large flight of stairs). Its really easy to use after a couple of hours to be honest. Dont use ur old usb cable cause laptops dnt recognise it and when yhur calling a company and have to press 1 for a menu option (When finding out your balance) press the volume button and a keypad will appear - i discovered this accidentally. Definetly Not suitable as a pda/business phone and u have to change the T9 function which is actually easy (volume button) . Overall - LuvIT!!! Rating: Reviewed by cate_cara on 03/11/2007 I've only had the prada phone for 3 days and so far things are going well. I will admit it does take a bit of time to get used to, considering i just finished using a Panasonic VS3 which has almost no features, except a button to open the phone. I am having trouble with one thing though. I have been trying to install the software on my laptop and it pops up with stuff about USB drivers - I know nothing about these, and the help menu is not helping! But back to worshipping the phone: I love the leather case... I have a habit to drop phone etc and they end up looking battered, KUDOS to the leather case. AND call me a girl (who cares - i am one) but I love the fact that this phone is Prada... its about the only Prada thing I will ever be able to afford. Unfortunately, their bags don't come with cap plans. And to all of you out there who don't like the touch screen... it's because you press the touchscreen too hard (regardless of the size of finger) and therefore hit the wrong button, or you are not skilled to opperate such a phone. Perhaps both :) Au Revoir.

The design and touch screen blow you away at first, but the novelty soon wears off. You are then left with a phone that has truly dreadful battery life, a very average camera, awful memory and no 3G, which all in all make it boring to use. There is no doubt it stands out, but don't be fooled, it lacks so much that Sony Ericsson K800i has. Great for posers, rubbish as a phone.

Probably, the main issue - didnt get the Prada bag for it:): shiny sides went off(just an alu foil, not metal - cheap, innit, if you consider its price??!), all scratched (although always carry it in its leather case), little chip on the side resulted in a crack on the screen, so taking it back..

Rating: Reviewed by Surat Dhillon on 10/10/2007 This a beautiful mobile phone designed by prada and lg. It is a mobile phone that i have loved since having it. The best thing about this phone is the gorgeous user interface. My favourite thing is the movable clock, it reminds you of an apple mac. The themes are wonderful (includes aqua theme - apple mac) and if you want a small mac in the palm of your hands then i will consider you to buy this phone. It's got the looks, outstanding features and it is so easy to get used to, no matter how big your fingers the technology behind it all is truly amazing - not only does it pick it up and predicts of what your finger is touching but it is also very fast when clicking through different applications. Don't be afraid when texting as this will take time to get used too and believe it or not you can use predicted texting. In order to play a game you have to touch the screen (i love it!) and the camera quality is 2 megapixels but don't be disturbed by this as it is quite clear and fast to take pictures and video. But there is only one problem - it costs a lot of money and also it can get stolen very easily. Still i give it an outstanding 5 stars.
