Interface and Functionality
The 3.0 inch screen display of this phone has been built with TFT resolution touchscreen, and the supports of 256K color display and 320 by 480 pixels. So everything that is presented on the screen looks really clean and sharp. LG GW620 has also been injected with Android OS v1.5, which later can be upgraded to Froyo.
The user interface of this phone looks pretty similar with other Android phones out there, where you can add new widgets and then float them around the given homesreen. For example, on the homescreen, you can put a giant clock widget and float it wherever you want, accompanied with other widgets or shortcuts.
Unfortunately, the performance of its user interface is not as responsive as other touch screen counterparts that use capacitive screen. Anyway, on the below position of the screen, the standard virtual keys have been provided, and they are phone dial, contact menu, message inbox and main menu.

The QWERTY keyboard on the back side is also the other interesting part from this phone. The buttons are produced in large size, which makes it convenient to press and use in the daily basis.
