LG Cosmos 2 Review
Online, September 4, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The LG Cosmos 2, available from Verizon Wireless, is the second generation LG Cosmos and after making some important upgrades, made the Cosmos 2 a fantastic feature phone. First of all, they increased the size of the keys on the keypad, making it roomier and easier to type quickly and accurately. The phone is still 4.4 by 2 by 0.63 inches, so it feels great when you slip into your pocket or bag. The screen is 2 inches with 262K color support and 320x240 pixel resolution. It looks great with crisp graphics and lines. The menu is the same as before and is easy to navigate. LG also added a music player and changed the headset jack to a 3.5mm, allowing you to listen to your music with a standard headset.
LG added a Social Network feature that allows you to send SMS messages to your Facebook or Twitter account and allowing you to receive SMS messages when someone posts a comment on your Facebook wall. While you still have to access the mobile web browser to actually log onto your account, this is an easy and convenient way to post updates on your wall while on the go. The 1.3 megapixel camera takes good pictures, perfect for sending pictures to your Facebook wall. With a feature phone, many people are looking for something that gives them the ability to send messages and make phone calls and the LG Cosmos 2 does both of these better than most smart phones. The battery life is good, at 6 hours and 10 minutes of talk time and 34 days of standby time.
While the battery life is good, having a charger or a back-up external battery is always a good idea. No more running out of power! Ideal for long flights, outdoor activities and serious road trips, the high capacity Naztech n301is a compact lithium polymer power source for charging your LG Cosmos 2 USB input device. It's small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, yet provides 1800 mAH of power - that is power up to 3 times the standard battery! What completes this device is the built-in flashlight to find your way around the dark and a convenient built in battery indicator that lets you know how much battery power is left. The LG Cosmos 2 n301 battery pack can be recharged from any computer USB port or, when used with the optional Naztech n300, a standard wall power outlet in addition to any standard vehicle adapter. Great for business trips, vacations or long drives. Just simply connect and charge! You'll never be caught powerless again.
We also recommend having a car mount if you plan on using the Cosmos 2 in your car. If you're worried about the signal, you can get a car mount that has a signal booster integrated into the mount. The LG Cosmos 2 Naztech Windshield Mount easily attaches to the interior of your windshield just above the dashboard. The flexible gooseneck pedestal enable you to position your GPS or LG Cosmos 2 Mobile phone device at just the right distance and angle for convenient LG Cosmos 2 viewing and operation. Quickly detach and secure the mount when transferring your unit from one vehicle to another.
