The LG 225 is another solid flip phone offering from Tracfone. The clamshell phone looks smart and performs outrageously well when on the go. Capturing those picture perfect moments is much easier now with the help of a 4x digital zoom VGA camera, the phone also enables the user to readily share them with family and friends while on roaming.
Some good features of the phone are:
- The phone’s sleek and sporty look gives it a nice overall feel and the screen is also protected because of the clamshell design.
- The phone is a Quad band GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz which is a pretty good for people on the go. The data transmission takes place through GPRS class10.
- The phone is small compact and has a comfortable feel to it, the dimensions of the phone are 3.36” (H) x 1.89” (W) x 0.90” (D).The weight of the phone is very low weighing only 3.27 Oz
- The interesting feature about the phone is that the LG 225 has dual screens, one on the outside and one on the inside. The internal Screen is a soft 65K color screen whereas the external screen is a monochromatic 96 x 64 screen, which is use full for checking time and new messages.
- The battery of the phone delivers a nice standby and a talk time as the battery is 1000 mAh Li-ion battery. One can talk on the phone for up to 2.5 hours and can keep the phone on standby for up to 10 days which is very amazing.
- The phone has some other attractive features like the MMS and java support for people who want some fun out of the phone and looking out to kill time.
Some of the downsides about the phone are:
- The phone has no photo caller id on the external screen which surely fails the whole concept of the external screen.
- The camera of the phone though a nice added feature still doesn’t deliver nice and colorful pictures and surely could have been better.
- Sometimes the headset gets noisy and scratchy when inside buildings or handling sounds at high volumes
The phone’s sleek and sporty clamshell look will obviously get it popular among the masses, also the phone is pretty well built and performs really well, apart from a few minor flaws here and there the phone is excellent.
