The phone's box is also the most elegant one I've ever seen so far, being padded with suede on the inside. There, you'll find the LG Prada standing like a queen in her luxurious bed and also here are her jewelry, errr, I mean accessories. I'm talking about the charger, micro USB cable used for both charging and data transfers and a set of headphones with in-ear plugs. No micro SD card, but the phone has 8 GB of internal storage, which I think is quite enough.


The phone measures 127.5 x 69 x 8.5 mm and has a weight of 138 grams, being very slim, compact and feeling comfortable in the hand. Even if it's all made of plastic, the phone is very solid (at least, it surely leaves that impression) and I loved that pattern on its back. It's called "Saffiano", it looks nice and offers a great hand grip.

The frontal part of the stylish body is taken by a 4.3 inches IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen that has a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels. It offers a very good sunlight legibility and the viewing angles are also fine.
Above the display are a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera, the earpiece and the proximity and ambient light sensors. Below the screen are four capacitive Android keys for Home, Menu, Back and Search.
The right side holds nothing, meanwhile on the left side you'll see the volume buttons.

A real party is going on the top, where you'll come across the 3.5 mm audio jack, a Power/Lock button, the micro USB port which is covered by a sliding metallic lid and a... shutter button. I know, you're probably wondering what's it doing there, if it got lost or something. I'm not saying the placing is bad, but only weird. You'll get used to it, anyways.
The bottom holds a lonely mouthpiece.

The LG Prada comes with Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread which has been customized a little bit by LG by adding a black and white theme. The phone moves smooth through the interface, you won't encounter any lag issues and stuff like that, granting a fine user experience. For that, we have to welcome its TI OMAP 4430 chipset, dual-core 1 GHz Cortex-A9 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 512 MB of ROM, 8 GB of internal storage and PowerVR SGX540 GPU.

In terms of telephony, the LG Prada does a very good job, having SNS integration, Smart and Voice dialing, the possibility of making video calls and it also offers a great in-call quality next to its issue-free reception. A secondary microphone for active noise cancellation is helping you make calls in noisy environments.

The phone manages all types of messages - SMS, MMS and email - and organizes them into threads.
The emailing department is very well packed, having Gmail, a generic email client which handles multiple accounts and support for Exchange.
For typing, the on screen QWERY keyboard is very friendly and easy to use.

The Prada's connectivity package is wealthy and features support for NFC, quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE, tri-band 3G with 21 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA, dual band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, Wi-Fi Direct, Hotspot, DLNA, Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP and EDR and micro USB MHL 2.0.

For surfing the web, you have the standard Android browser which supports double tab and pinch zooming, text reflow, find on page, bookmarks, Flash support - it's all there for a brilliant browsing experience. The pages are loaded fast and look wonderful on the Prada's nice display.



The phone is equipped with an 8 megapixel camera which takes pictures at a maximum resolution of 3264 x 2448 pixels and has a single LED flash companion. You have support for geotagging, continuous autofocus, face detection, preset scenes and others. The photos taken with the LG Prada were great, with very good amount of detail and accurate colors.
The video recorder is also a wonderful performer, producing some really nice 1080p videos at 30 fps.

For audio playback, the LG Prada comes with a cute looking music player which offers the possibility of choosing some equalizer presets, search for information about your songs, artists or albums on the internet or YouTube and so on. The audio quality is very good and an FM Radio is also on board, but lacks RDS support.
The video player is also a master in playing videos, having support for DivX, XviD, MP4, MKV, WMV and subtitles. Watching movies is going to be a pleasure on that big, nice screen.



Now, let’s see what applications are on board. We have the Polaris Office app for viewing and editing Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents and it even handles PDF, but not editing that type of files. The alarm clock app handles multiple alarms and also holds the world clock, timer and stopwatch. You also have a voice recorder, some weather, finance and news apps, an image editor and others. For more, the LG SmartWorld and Android Market are at your service, the second one offering a great variety of apps.

A built-in GPS receiver is here and has A-GPS support and Google Maps for navigation, which offers the possibility of planning routes, searching for points of interest, using the Street View mode and, for some countries, there’s voice guided navigation.

The phone holds a 1540 mAh battery inside and will endure almost a day of intensive usage.

The LG Prada is a very stylish phone and is aimed at those who want a nice and classy device, but also have great expectations from it. Well, this is it, folks. If you’re into beauty, elegance, fashion and also cleverness, this phone really has them all.
