What You Need to Know about All Phones

How Do I Transfer Music from My Computer to My Mobile Phone?

LG has worked diligently to make transferring music from your computer to your phone extremely easy. While each phone has slight variations, the following instructions are standard:

-Connect your mobile phone to your PC via USB cable -Select “Synchronize My Music” -Expand the “All My Music” playlist -Click-and-drag albums to your phone

It’s that simple. And, with a microSD™ memory card, you can store additional music and take it with you, wherever you go.

Web Browsing on Your Mobile Phone

LG’s goal is to make web browsing on your mobile phone as similar to browsing the Web at home as possible—only smaller and transportable. Take the LG Viewty—with just a few taps of its slick touch screen, you’re off and browsing. Simply tap the shortcut menu, then the browser, rotate the phone for horizontal viewing, tap the “www” button, type in the web address—and surf away.

With optimised browsing, you can download optimised versions of any page—for even faster viewing—with page layouts specially designed for mobile phones. By automatically reducing unneeded graphics, compressing smaller sections, and adapting content, you’ll enjoy fast, efficient, and fun web access, anytime, anywhere.

The LG Design Philosophy for Mobile Phones

Today, mobile networking technology allows for truly wireless, global communications—offering access to a world of media via mobile devices.

LG’s goal has always been to deliver sophisticated design and advanced technology in the form of unique and desirable mobile phones that fit your lifestyle. LG mobile phones are designed to meet every user’s needs.

Our recent focus has been to introduce the best-looking phones without sacrificing any advanced features. We intend to lead in this area for years to come.

Leading the Way to the Future of Technology and Design

LG Electronics develops top-quality, core technologies, such as CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), UMTS (Universal Telecommunications Systems), and HSDPA (High Speed Download Packet Access), as well as services based on the most advanced mobile communication environments.

LG is the frontrunner in the CDMA market thanks to years of technological research and product development. We’ve also achieved outstanding success in the GSM category, thanks to unbeatable product development. Further, LG will continue to lead the industry with UMTS and HSDPA handsets that utilize world-class technology such as mobile TV and 3G technology.

LG makes mobile phones with superior technology and designs that deliver value to customers. To achieve this, LG makes every effort to anticipate customers' needs and surpass them with premium mobile products.

How Many Megapixels Do I Really Need?

The choice of how many megapixels you need on your phone depends on what you want to do with your photos. If you just want to capture life’s memorable moments, send them to friends and family, and post them on the Web, a 1.3 or 2 MP camera will do the job. If you want to take high-resolution pictures, blow them up, and edit them on your computer, then pixel-size really matters. For more advanced camera functions, a 5 or 8-megapixel camera works best. In short, the more pixels, the more versatility. LG camera phones have a range of pixel-sizes to suit your needs.
