The LG KM380 resembles a dedicated player at first sight. Although quite a large but a front flip open and it becomes obvious that the KM380 is actually a mobile phone.

The KM380 is a specification slightly better than the Sony Ericsson W350 although, even if it lacks the W350 striking looks.

As a phone, the LG KM380 is a tri-band GSM device with GPRS data, Bluetooth, a web browser and mail client. There is a 2 “240 x 320 pixels on the front base and a 1.3 megapixel camera at the rear. The battery provides 800 mAh duration 3 hours and 10 days in standby mode.

Does a fairly light sentence to 79 grams (a little lighter than the W350) and 108 x 48 x 13 mm in size (slightly larger than the W350). Although we are comparing the LG KM380 to its rival Sony Ericsson, it should be noted that the LG phone has a better view significantly, but shorter battery life.
