The LG Prada is one of the most attractive handsets we've ever seen. The LG Prada looks and feels as though it belongs in a glass case on display in a trendy flat, rather than stuffed in a bag or pocket. You will definitely be noticed when you use it. First thing you'll notice when you turn on the LG Prada is a distinctive start-up sound that was, according to LG, created by Prada and sounds like something from one of the Saw horror movies -- you'll want to turn this off straight away.

Once it stops screeching at you, you'll notice that the user interface looks great, with cute icons, and you can customize it to suit your taste. We particularly like the theme that displays a wriggling fish on the start
page. The 2-megapixel camera is a little lackluster and seems dated next to
other phones that feature 3-megapixel cameras, such as the Nokia N73 or the Sony Ericsson K800i. Using the large touch screen as a viewfinder is great,but the shots from our review model came out quite blurry.

The touch screen is large, bright and more responsive than those found on touch screen phones we've previously tested. There's no stylus provided but we didn't feel awkward using our fingers. It works very well when you just need to tap an icon or dial a number, but as with many touch screen phones; there isn't any tactile feedback when you're texting. The music player feels vaguely like Apple's iTunes and lets you adjust the play mode to repeat and
shuffle tracks.
