My pink LG KF350 ice cream is here!
Woohoo! I am in a super-duper-happy mood as I finally get my pink LG ice cream phone (RM799) last night. Not only that, the weather isn’t as hot as yesterday but cloudy and windy. Ah, nice!
My old Nokia 1208 and the new pink LG ice cream
I always being skeptical when it comes to gadget and brand. I mean, I believe that one particular brand is strong in one area hence I won’t go for other brands, like how I always stand at Canon side when it comes to digicam. I don’t even want to look at Sony, Nikon, Olympus, etc. Just how strong Canon branding is (for me). But for other things like office furniture, brand doesn’t really matter to me. I won’t insist to go Ikea to buy a white working table. Any furniture shop will do cause it’s just a working table. I’m weird.
When it comes to mobile phone, I also kinda believe that Nokia is the best to go for. But this time I give it an exemption and allow myself to go for the non-popular brand in Indonesia which is LG. But this LG ice cream isn’t sold in Indonesia yet (at least it wasn’t sold in Medan when I asked 3 weeks ago), luckily it is released in KL already. I don’t care if people say it is lagging, battery can’t last long yadayada. The pastel pink color is enough to blind my eyes and catch my heart. Hehe..
I actually planned to do a complete review of this pink ice cream phone. But laziness took over it. 
The keypad’s light is in sweet pink.
The LED light or whatever it is called. Besides time, it can show smiley face or phone number when there is a call.
For now, this is the best-est phone that I ever get, from the price to color to features, everything. Thanks to boyfriend for driving me around and accompany me to hunt for the pink LG ice cream. He fulfills whatever I want. My very own genie in the bottle indeed.

Wow what a coincidence. I’m currently in the same predicament as you were, I am using a nokia 1208 and just recently found out about the LG ice cream phone. I want it sooo bad I haven’t been able to concentrate on my schoolwork for the past few days lol. Before my nokia I used a sony ericsson k800 which had really good features, but I broke it lol. I imagine the LG won’t have as good features but I can’t resist the pink color and the LED lights. I am looking for something simple and cute anyway.
One question I had about the LG:
I’ve never had an LG phone before so I was wondering if it lags a lot? My SE lagged sometimes and it always bothered me.
Thanks, I’m happy I came across your blog. The pictures look great!
Hi Monica,
Lol.. What a coincidence! Well, the LG phone is lagging sometimes (very rare though). Just don’t compare the speed with Nokia phone especially phone like 1208.
now my fingers are itchy. my current phone contract is ending soon in a few months. Hope they still have the stock by then.
LOL.. The phone is great, really. Many said that it looks like a Japanese phone.
Hope you’ll get it soon!
I want to get the white one or the baby blue so bad. I really like the phone even though I’m a guy
. But yeah hope you do a review soon.
Yeah a review would be cool! I was also wondering how many text msgs maximum can the phone store? Has it given you any problems yet? i’m hesitant to get one because of the problems I’ve been reading about the phone hanging and stuff.
That is a really neat looking phone. I love the lit up time on the front (or was it in the back)…lol
It’s the front part, which is often mistaken (by most people) as the back. lol.
I think this phone is awesome!*
I am going to get this phone soon.
but, I am kinda deciding which color I should get.
I am going to pick between pink and white.
but, mostly white.
I think.
just tell me what you think.
I need advice.
pleassseeee!
If you are a fans to pink color, then go for the pink one. Before I bought this phone, a seller told me to go for white cause some people will easily get bore with pink color. It goes back to you again.
Happy choosing!
Ah~
okayyy.
lol
but I am a fan of pink & whiteee.
Darn itttt. I don’t know what to do.
how about the lighttt, does pink and white phone have same light color when it rings or something?
lol.. it will be harder to choose now. I didn’t test the white LG so I have no idea about the light color. I suppose it will be the same. Erm, Maybe you can ask for demo on the spot, before you buy the phone?
okayyy.
but for da pink phone, what color is the light?
The upper part is orange like the above picture and the lower part light is in white. I’m not sure how to explain. I’ll try to put up a new review post along with the picture soon.
ohhh.
okayyy.
Thank you.
Could you please tell me where can I buy that same unit? I’ve seen a lot of blogs about LGKF350 and they said that it’s not yet available here in the Philippines.. so sad..
and may I know its est price? Thanks a bunch! 
Hi Ellie,
I bought the phone in Malaysia. It isn’t available in Indonesia too. Probably you can try buying it online? But I don’t know which site to go for, though. Price was MYR799, you can convert it to Peso.
Do you think this model is suitable for guys??
I am a guy currently using white ice-cream,put autobot logo as my wallpaper,the LED I make it into blinking robot’s eye,now u still say this phone is not suit for guy?overall no problem for this phone,key also almost da same as nokia,sms no problem,but I got small problem with the shortcut key for camera,I always think that it is a cancel button,others than that perfect!!!play mp3 then close the cover of ur phone,and see the magic of ice-cream~
Hi, Dexter, thanks for sharing and shed away the mindset that LG ice cream is equal to women’s phone.
Did you have any problems with the phone hanging?
Yeap a few times when I pressed the keypad too fast.
are you from philippines? how did you avail the phone? can u help me avail too?
Nope, I’m from Indonesia and I bought the phone from KL – Malaysia during one of my trips there.
where did u buy that?and how much is that thanks.
Bought from KL, Malaysia – RM799.
I am hoping to get this phone soon too. Like many others, I am having difficult times choosing which colour to buy lol. white or pink! But I guess I’m leaning towards the pink one. How are you liking the phone? I’ve also heard many cons about this phone hanging and stuff. But if I press the buttons slowly, there should be no problems right? What do you do if it freezes/hangs? Sorry for all these questions…
Erm.. depends on how bad the freeze/hang is. If the application hangs, I’ll just press the “end call” button. Otherwise give the phone some time to process what I have pressed and it should be back to normal. The process time is quite slow, hence I cannot type message quickly just like how I use Nokia phone.
When you get the phone, learn about the behavior and you won’t experience the hang/freeze thing.
hi wiehanne,
thanks for the excellent review,
I have been searching for ice cream lg and dying to have one., but just like others I’m a bit scared with cons.
But I think I’ve made my mind..
I’m goin to get this phone too, your review is very helpful, thumbsup:D
I have one more question though..
on txt messaging,
Does it have special character ex:(Ö,à, ê)
like nokias hp?
Thanks in advance.
Jhoice
Yeap, it has the special character
hi! this is great, thanks! now i just have a question. did you buy this with a contract from a company or did you just put your sim card in and used the phone?
im from the states and im ordering online. im really scared that its going to freeze/hang on me =[ BUT ITS SOOOOO CUTE!
I bought this LG ice cream without a contract with any telco company. I bought it from other country (Malaysia) and put my own simcard in it.
You just need to learn about the phone speed and be gentle in using it, the phone won’t hang so often.
hello, i’m really interested about this phone…first of all, its pink color have attracted my eyes coz obviously i LOVE pink!
i have my phone w/c is Sony Ericsson W910i for almost a year now and for me, it’s a PERFECT phone that fits me…but one thing i’m disappointed about that phone is–
it’s not PINK! lol mine is in red…
so when i’ve seen this LG KF350 (just awhile ago^^), i’ve thought
“Oh my God! this is a perfect phone for me.” although i’m not really sure about its quality.
1.Are you not having any problems on phone calling? (w/c is the main purpose of having a phone)
2.Does it have hard or soft keypads? (i’m sorry for this question but i’m really curious about it)
I hope you could give me your most honest review or answers regarding my questions. Thank You.
Hi,
1. No, there is no problem in phone calling. After all mobile phone is created for calling.
2. I think I should categorize it as medium. Bottom line, no problem in pressing the keypads. It’s not too hard, not too soft too.
Hello. Thank you so much for the reply. God Bless^^
Um… just wondering…
~Have you dropped your phone of hit it on something? If yes, what are the effects?
~How much internal and external memory ?
~How are the music speakers?
~What type of music format can the phone play?
~How are the camerer?
Srry for so much questions!
1. Yes, I dropped once from the staircase, probably from around 1m height. Aftermath: no scratch on the phone although it hit the floor and no hang whatsoever.
2. External 1GB internal 30MB (detail of the spec can be viewed here: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_kf350-2485.php)
3. Speaker is not bad. I don’t really use it for mp3.
4. MP4/H.263 player, MP3/EAAC+/WMA player (refer to link #2)
5. Camera is quiet clear, even better than nokia e71 (for me)
Thanks for your reply! Really appreciate it!
Hi!, please answer, I currently havethe nokia N97 but i alos want another phone, this phone is verycute, what you reccommend the price for it would be now? please reply! =D
Hi Apple, if you want to know about the current market price for this LG ice cream, I’m sorry I can’t help.
hey i how much did cost ice cream and contacts?
Hi, If you mean the price of the LG ice cream, it was MYR800
i got it for RM580 only..hohohoho…uwaaa!!!excited…hope it wont have the probs that evry1 has complained…ice cream pls work!!hohohoo…but i’m sa coz there r no themes available…sob3…any1??
Yeap, price has dropped alot. The last time I asked on last year December (cause I lost the phone and thought of replacing it with the same one >.< ), it was RM550 only. Guess LG phone starts with expensive price and drops alot after that, but most of the design is nice.
Hope you like your 'ice cream'!
Hello! I’m also thinking about buying this phone, but I’ve seen many reviews of it ‘hanging’..
what exactly is hanging? Because I always picture it as if it broke, and it never turns on again . xD
Also, I’ll be buying this phone on eBay..
Hanging as in it will stop functioning and the screen freeze no matter what keypad you press, until you take out the battery and insert it again. That’s the worst hanging case. Normally, it will just freeze for a few seconds and I’ll press the reject-call button to force stop the application.
My LG ice-cream(KF350) lags a lot! Anyone knows ow to stop it from lagging? It’s very irritating…
does anyone know how to put music on the ice cream? Ive never worked with micro sd cards and im so completely lost :/ id love some information! xx
so i was wondering if u can install any music into the fone n get ur own wallpaper?
Yeap, sure you can put in mp3 and wallpaper in the phone.
OMG!!! It’s perfect!!! It’s a shame that there’s no cell of this model here in Brazil….T.T
