Verdict: We’ve wound up rather liking the KF600, despite its little quirks and flaws. It’s a good-looking phone that’s easy to use for a touch-screen device, even though it achieves this by embracing a traditional user interface.
Pros: ; A fabulous-looking slider phone that’s easier to use than most touch-screen phones.
Cons: ; The phone lacks a few key features and the InteractPad takes up too much of the display.

Wherever you go in the phone, the navigation pad changes the keys it displays to suit your needs better. But we don't think it works as smoothly as it could and at times we found it clunky. We're

Verdict: At this year's Mobile World Congress, LG was keen to promote its latest handset, the LG KF600, which features a split-screen design. We were just as keen to get our hands on this mobile, as interesting as it looked. Would we find its functionality to be as intriguing as its appearance?
