What You Need to Know about All LG Phones

The LG Design Philosophy for Mobile Phones

The LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company is a leading mobile communications and information company. With its cutting edge technology and innovative design capabilities, LG creates handsets that provide optimized mobile experience to customers around the world. LG is pursuing convergence technology and mobile computing products, while continuing its leadership role in mobile communication with stylish designs and smart technology.

How Many Mega Pixels Do I Really Need?

The choice of how many mega pixels you need on your phone depends on what you want to do with your photos. 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 mega pixel camera works best. In short, the more pixels, the more versatility. LG camera phones have a range of pixel-sizes to suit your needs.

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. While each phone has slight variations, the following instructions are standard:

Simply select Menu - Find the browser - select the option to enter the web address and surf away.

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:

After installing PC Suite, 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.
