Intro

The LG GW520 takes social networking on mobile phones to a whole new level. And it’s packed with stunning features, too.

Keeping up with friends and family on Facebook and MySpace is simplicity itself with the superb LG GW520. Equipped with push social networking updates, owners of the phone receive alerts from multiple sites as soon as they are posted.

Just as useful is the ability it offers to update your statuses, personal pages or photos direct from the handset. Meanwhile, in a neat, fun touch your favourite people are represented on the LG GW520's homescreen by cute animated characters.

And the mobile web browsing experience this phone offers is just as impressive. Thanks to 3G HSDPA support, users can expect to surf the net as quickly and conveniently as they would at home. And downloading music and video files is similarly speedy at speeds of up to 7.2Mb.

Other features of the LG GW520 include a three megapixel camera that delivers superb quality snaps every time, a large 2.8-inch touchscreen display and a handy push email function that delivers messages directly to your mobile phone.

A slide out QWERTY keyboard is included to make it is easy to enter large amounts of text when composing emails or text messages.

More on the LG GW520

The LG GW520 is optimised for social networking. But it’s much more than a great device for staying in touch with your friends and family. As well as the superlative features detailed above the GW520 also features an FM radio, an email document viewer for working on the go, vibration alert, built-in Java games and a media player.

To enable user to make the most of all these functions, LG has provided 40MB of internal memory. This can be boosted by up to 8GB by adding a microSD card, to allow you plenty of room for all the photos, music and files you may want to store on your handset.

Buyers can expect talk time of up to 4.5 hours and battery standby time of up to 500 hours. The GW520 is quad band and can therefore be used with mobile phone networks all over the world.
