Calling SE 'poo' on an SE forum, I'm sure lots will agree! Seriously though, I have been very impressed with LG's 3G mobiles, they have really leapfrogged ahead of NEC in my opinion.

LG have actually helped 3G move forwards in more ways than one; not only have they produced good 3G mobiles themselves, they have also raised the bar for othe rmanufacturers too.

Yeah the 8150 on Orange looks really cool. I hope they dont stick to the same sort of design though, as its becoming a little boring if you know what I mean..8110,8120 and now 8150(Do those numbers sound familiar??? cough cough connecting people).
I like the phone but, I hope LG will come out with something radical next time. Come on guys be more creative... |

I saw an 8110 today, it is indeed a nice phone, loads of features, nice screen.
Is it just me, or does the LG 8110 look very much like the Samsung V200?
And another thing, excuse the stupid question, but is LG the new (ish) name for GoldStar?

@themarques
I would agree with you that LG needs to innovate a little more, but to be fair to them they have identified a product that works and more importantly, for LG, sells well. LG will hopefully expand their range, if they do then they could become a major force in 3G, if not the market leader.

@Sammy_boy Hahaha you have got tobe the first person I have met in ages that has spoken about the "GoldStar" name. Actually Goldstar has been around for as long as LG has been around. It was the name used for sometimes the lower end of the LG market and normally for good shipped to 3rd world countries etc.
Kinda like how in England you have the Vauxhall Astra but elsewhere its the same model but called the Opel Astra...(with sligtly less features etc) |

Yes, im an LG convert too. Cracking phones. The Wayne Rooney of mobiles, young, talented, and enjoying good success.
I dont know if the design needs a radical change, maybe "refined". The keypad is a joy to use, i wouldnt change that. Screen is a good size, maybe a better quality one would be good, though it isnt bad at all. One thing i would like is to see the camera rotate all the way round, so when not in use you can protect the lense from dust etc. An internal aerial, but bearing in mind its a 3g phone, they have already crammed loads of goodies into that (relatively) small frame.
As for the features: Memory, people will always complain no matter how much memory they put in a phone. Bluetooth is a must, im sure we all agree, it is glaring by its abscence. And the internet access! This is a 3 thing though, nothing to do with LG.
LG have always made quality products, when they started making washing machines, it wasnt long before they were making top-of-the-range ones. Same with dvd players. Hopefully, it will be the same with their mobile phones. Considering the amount of time NEC had to develop a 3g phone, and the time LG did, the difference is absolutely amazing. Hats off to LG, they really did their homework. I hope they release their phones not only to 3, but to other networks too. I wonder if they are planning a smartphone? I wouldnt mind a look at that!
EDIT: By the way, vauxhalls are shite

The 3G market is at a very crucial stage and the quality of the handsets will play a large role in winning customers for the networks. 3 in the UK were pretty much stuck with NEC and Motorola at first, however, with the addition of LG and soon, hopefully, SE too, we shall some genuine competition to produce good quality 3G handsets. NEC have been allowed to get away with delivering poor products for far too long in my opinion.
