LG CP150

Some people are into technology, and some people simply want their technology to function and be easy to use. For the latter group, the new LG CP150 is an excellent choice. It offers a no-nonsense approach to the cell phone with an easy to use interface, simple design, and a minimal amount of bells and whistles. It has a simple clamshell design, large keys, and a front clock and caller ID window. It also has an internal antenna so it can easily fit into your pocket or bag.

There are a few extras with this phone, including worldwide coverage, texting, and a feature called Media Net, which allows users to get movie times, weather forecasts, and sports scores. There is also a speakerphone and voice memo feature.

Pros

• Global roaming capability (GSM quad-band)
• Extremely lightweight
• Impressive stand-by time
• Speakerphone for hands free talking
• Voice memo feature

Cons

• Basic design that lacks a full color touch screen or a full sized keyboard
• Devoid of extra features such as expandable memory and camera

Overall

Generally speaking, this cell phone is great for older users who just want to be able to make and receive phone calls. It has the most basic functions, while still providing the user with some added bonuses, such as the Media Net feature. The phone is reasonably priced, so for those few remaining Americans without a cell phone, this may be your chance.
