Similar phones from Nok, Sony, Smsng etc cost atleast 500 more. LG provides the most value for money packages around. Their service network is a plus. And of late, they've been pushing the design barrier with launches of Chocolate, Shine etc. Check out CNET's top mobile phones where Fusic tops the list.

There are a million such phones from Nokia. But looks like the mass marker is only where LG can survive now. Gosh I wonder who's leading their mobile division. They really need an image makeover in this segment. So many complaints, so many frustrated users.
