On July - 28 - 2009

The LG GM310 is a mid-level music-centric device that just has been released last month. The GM310 also known as the LG-GM210 or LG-GM205, depending on who the operator/country is. The targeted market of this handset is more on teens since they are those who are more inclined in listening to music and the affordable price won’t burden student so much. Apparently, the music capabilities is the hottest selling point of the device.

Quality is acceptable for a mid-range screen. The under the display you will see the unique  touch-sensitive navigation panel. Unlike other handset, this navigate panel actually is a set of music control keys as well as the regular soft keys like End, Back,Cancel and menu.  At the right side of the phone, you will see the music and camera dedicated key lied. Also, as a dedicated mucis device, the phone has a 3.5mm Audio Output Jack at the top of the left side, over the volume keys.

When press in to the Music Tea features, you will see nine different ‘flavor’ of ‘Tea Bags’ which indicate the style of your songs such as Deep, Refresh, Holy, Classical and etc of ‘flavor’. Frankly, it is only a fancy way to create a Playlist. There is also a feature like Mix & Match for you to play your songs according to your mood. Unfortunately, this feature only is inconvenient, because songs selection have to controlled through computer.

Therefor the audio quality of GM310 is decent. You can even have even more good audio quality if you have your headset on, the bass is stronger.

If you use LG GM310 for only listen to the music, than you can continue non-stop listening up to 60 hours of music with the batteries fully charged. This is brilliant because not most of the music phone cannot do that. However, the 512 MB of internal memory is not enough for most of the music lovers so the microSD card up to 32 GB is allowed to insert to this phone.

Other Features

The handset also spot a 3.12 MP camera with autofocus. The quality is quite good actually, and enough for most of the users. Don’t forget that the handset also support HSDPA 3G network, so surfing the internet would be no problem. But there is no videocall camera for you to face-to-face chatting with your friends.
