Upon first glance, it's easy to see why the LG KG800 (also known as the Chocolate) won the 2006 IF Design Award in Germany for its fresh and innovative design. One such example of innovation is the hidden display and a touchpad that is invisible when not in use, but glows red when in use. Currently only available in black, the Chocolate is something to see and be seen with. Still, this phone is more than just a pretty package and comes equipped with more features than one would expect to find in a phone. Moreover, each feature is notably high quality.

The camera, for instance, isn't the run of the mill one that one tends to find in cell phones these days. Instead, it's a powerful 1.3 megapixel camera and video recorder that has a powerful flash, ensuring each photo taken is one worth saving. The multi-shot feature enables the user to take nine consecutive shots and once they're taken, the camera is capable of zooming up to four times the original size. Brightness, white balance, timer and effect are bonuses that round out this aspect of the Chocolate.

Thanks to the 262,000 color TFT screen, users won't miss a thing. The display of images, video and menu icons are high quality and vibrant. When owners are finished editing photos or watching videos, they can enjoy the built in MP3 player that supports MP3, AAC, AAC+ and WMA files.

With the Chocolate, boring polyphonic ringtones will be a thing of the past. Now, music files can be set as ringtones and the graphic equalizer with six different sound effects will make sure the phone is heard loud and clear when somebody calls. Bluetooth technology enables hands free talking and because the phone has Tri-band technology, the phone can be used in most countries.
