LG C2000

When you close the phone and the backlight stays on for 30 seconds (or whatever you choose), the external display has a color wallpaper background that looks like Windows XP's "Bliss" wallpaper (blue skies, clouds, and green hills), with the information displayed on top of it in black lettering. After the backlight turns off, it looks like a standard external display - light gray background with black lettering.

Also, I thought I remembered seeing the picture ID on the external display for an incoming call, but I was wrong... I just tested it and it lights up the color background, lists the number (or name if they are a contact), and shows the Icon you have assigned to their group, if applicable.

The reception on this phone is FAR be...

this phone is actually pretty good.. looks like lg got another phone right. we got it a few days ago at my store and played around with one. It seems pretty good from the half hour messing around with it, the the call quality seems pretty good.

Overall, it's a good entry level camera phone.

can anyone tell me how many pictures it holds on high and medium resolutions becouse those are the only resolutions i really use, oh and how is the quality in a dim room becouse i noticed it did not have a flash like my vx6100
thanks

I did some tests on my phone and here is what I found for resolutions:

* The total Memory available for pictures is 300000B (300KB).

* 640x480 is the highest res. Those pics ran between 20KB & 30KB each, usually closer to 30KB. It let me take about 10 and then it was full.

* 320x240 is the next highest res. Those ran between 5KB & 15KB each, usually below 10KB. You could take between 20 to 60 pics, probably around 40 on average.

* It also does 160x120 and 128x160. The files sizes are less than 5KB each, so it will hold a LOT of those, but they would be pretty poor quality.

I took some pics in a dim room and they turned out kind of yellow, because that's the kind of bulb that was in the lamp. However, I hadn't yet messed around with the following options, which probably would have helped:

*Brightness: Manually adjust how light/dark the picture is. -4 to +4

*White Balance: Choose from Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Cloudy, and Flourescent. Each setting adds/removes hues to offset the strong whites and colors of different settings.

*Color Effect: Color, Sepia, Mono (B&W)

*Self Timer: off, 5 seconds, 10 seconds

*Multi-shot: 1 shot, 3 shots

*Shutter Sound: silent or choose from 3 camera sounds

thanks uwbecks,
i personally like the phone and the fact that it dosnt have a color external screen makes me like it more. but i herd it had a stn display and most phones have a tft display is the screen bright? and can u see it in sun light?

oh yea in the pictures it looks like theres a camara button on the outer side of the phone, can u take pics with the phones closed?

It doesn't let me take pics with the phone closed, unless I'm missing a setting in the menus that lets me set that as an option.

The screen is really easy to read and is very bright when I'm indoors, but I have noticed that it's hard to see it when I'm outside in the sunlight. ☹️

thanks
