LG Xenon: The Touch Screen Mobile with Advantages

Scott Sire
The LG Xenon has a slide-out QWERTY keypad for sending messages, a big touch-screen; home screen that can be customized using widgets, devoted pages to record preferred contacts and an Annunciator which contains the menu of various shortcuts. Apart from these, the Xenon holds a camera of 2-megapixels, a music player, HTML browser, Bluetooth and lots more.

The LG Xenon can hold only scanty 500-entries in the contacts with space for 2 numbers, an email i.d. as well as a memo. You would be able to allocate contacts to groups, include a photo, a ring tone or an alert tone for the contacts.

The LG Xenon phone's fundamental functions comprise of vibrate mode, multimedia messages, speakerphone, text messages, calendar, alarms, calculator, voice recorder, voice control, world clock, unit converter and a stop watch.

More sophisticated users will adore the Bluetooth, instantaneous messaging (it includes AIM, Yahoo as well as Windows Live accounts), mobile phone e-mail as well as A-GPS.

Reviews

The LG Xenon does not enable POP and IMAP. The Xenon is made available with an AT&T Navigator.

It has a HTML browser just like any other touch screen device. It has multiple browser options that behave like tab browsing. Just like we do on a normal browser, we would be able to modify the size of fonts, snap pop-ups and close images in this device.

The Media Net browser does not load CSS designs with precision. Therefore, the page looks strange.
The screen is tiny. So, it would be necessary to keep scrolling the pages. This problem can be solved by using the arrows present on QWERTY keypad.

Call quality is excellent. The Callers would not be able to hear the noises that occur in the background.

The stereo headset is very good. It helps in hearing music clearly.

The 3G speed is extraordinary. Simpler web sites can be loaded immediately while complex ones may take a minute or so. For buffering, the cellular video would take only 30 seconds.

Video quality seems to be inadequate due to the function of the pixel. That is however the demerit of the AT&T and not the phone.

The LG Xenon includes a battery life of 4 hours in talk time and 11 hours for standby.

The LG Xenon has been giving its competitors a tough competition. It has several enhanced features that are necessary for a touch screen mobile. It has a few short falls which may be overlooked.
