The LG P940 Prada 3.0 is a stylish Android smartphone, but it's overpriced for what it delivers, not least when it comes to the underwhelming battery life. The mere promise of an Android 4 upgrade at some point isn't particularly compelling either, so there's little here to make this smartphone...

The first fruit borne out of the LG-Prada collaboration is the LG Prada 3.0 – a sleek and stylish mobile phone that is packed with interesting features and indispensable applications that will have you flaunting it, all the time.

I had purchased LG Prada 3.0 from amazon. As I was looking for a mobile I came across this phone. Well I had find this phone cheap and a android like feeling when I look to it at amazon. So I order the phone. But when I get a phone I didn't like it a lot.

You don't slap "Prada" on any slab of phone, darling, so while this one is no slouch, it's got its work cut out.

The original Prada phone, which came out in December 2006, was the first mobile with a capacitive touchscreen, and was a huge hit for LG. It wasn't a smartphone, though, and neither was its successor, the keyboard-equipped Prada II.

Nice phone, bit big but beautiful. I am very happy with it.

Now everyone's got an iPhone or an Android handset, showing off with your phone is harder than ever. One way is to get one that has a fashion house logo stamped on the back of it. Boom!

The upshot is a handset which feels and looks good, and whose innards appear to have been well thought out. We rather like it, though it is a slightly pricey choice.

LG's Prada Phone 3.0 is the third smartphone the company has developed in conjunction with Italian fashion label Prada following the LG Prada (KE850) and the LG Prada (KF900). Described by LG as a smartphone that combines "style and substance", the Prada Phone 3.0 has a nice design and some handy software but has too many flaws to recommend amongst excellent competition.

LG's Prada Phone certainly looks the part thanks to a classy design that blends well with the company's unique, monochrome user interface. Unfortunately, this interface is also the cause of much inconsistency. When combined with only average performance, poor battery life and no real class leading features, the Prada Phone is quickly lost among better competitors.

The Prada 3.0 is a big leap forward in LG's partnership with the world-renowned fashion brand, but a sideways step for the LG portfolio, overall. It may be the first true Prada smartphone, and features like NFC are most certainly welcome, but it is otherwise a run-of-the-mill smartphone by all other...
