LG GD550 Pure Price in Pakistan

The first impression of the phone is accompanied with its big buttons, muscular metal finish, and heavy weight. The impression is that of an old school phone, one which our grandfather would have appreciated and liked, but would in today’s day not stand a chance in front of the slim and sleek phones out there. While every other mobile phone company is in a big race towards creating the smartest smart phone, the LG GD550 Pure actually goes in the opposite direction by being old school and minimalistic in nature. This minimal nature involves lesser features offered in the phone, so that the value of basic features like making a call and sending a text message can still stand out; a small display screen of 2.4 inches and 240×320 pixels resolution, the phone also evidently lacks behind in a visually appealing aspect.

However, the GD550 isn’t so basic and does offer features like a great music player, with decent sound playback quality; a 5 megapixel camera with a 2560×1920 pixels resolution, autofocus, and video recording with decent quality.

Unlike a lot many other phones of its category it does support internet browsing through GSM, GPRS, and EDGE supportability. For entertainment on the go, the FM radio in the handset works pretty well and also allows the storage of enough channels. The gallery in the phone allows ease of storing images that you may very well have taken from the generous 5 megapixel camera; however the gallery options are generally much cluttered and can cause for a big inconvenience.

For further connectivity it has a Bluetooth with A2DP; as well as a hot swap micro SD card slot which gives the user the freedom of a enhancing the amount of data that can be stored in the phone. With an excellent keypad, and an office document viewer which supports different office formats, the phone can very easily be used by professionals on the go; making use of the email, mms, and long battery life features. The phone has a battery life of 900mAH, standby time of up to 320 hours, and a talk time of up to 5.8 hours.

It would not seem appropriate to complain too much about the outdated style of the phone when it does come with a sliding keypad, and other useful features. The only thing pulling the phone downwards, quite literally, and making it slightly unfair for its price tag is it’s not so light weight of 132g.
