The handheld features a scroll wheel navigation button

The candy-bar style phone doesn't really resemble the other LG Chocolate phones. In fact, it doesn't look like the others at all.

KG330 is a tri-band 900/ 1800/ 1900 handheld with a 2 inch 176 x 220 pixel 262k color display, that features a rather odd looking scroll wheel navigation button that can't really be described as looking as anything specific or resembling anything.

Meant to be a mid-level mobile phone, KG330 has a couple of features that will most likely satisfy LG mobile phone fans. It comes equipped with a 1.3 megapixel camera with 4x digital zoom, a media player - supporting mp3, mp4, mpeg 4 and 3gp - and Bluetooth 1.2.

If the 32 MB of internal memory will prove not to be enough for the mp3 collectors out there, the mobile phone also comes with a MicroSD slot. KG330 also has a built-in application called "Buddy Room" that allows users to talk to their friends via Bluetooth.

Apart from that, you should expect all the usual features a mobile phone brings such as an organizer or voice recording. Judging both by looks and features, the KG330 is very unlikely to become half as popular as the other Chocolate phones.

Measuring 108.9 x 46.5 x 16.3 mm and weighing approximately 70 grams, the LG KG330 is already available on the European market, and will become available in Asia this month.
