There have been many initiatives taken by LG in bringing mobile devices that are also very capable music players. However, now LG looks ready to capture the consumer attention in this market segment with a product that is a fully-functional music player along with being a mobile handset. It is called the Rhythm and it displays many features like the equalizer settings that are difficult to find among other phones that have been marketing themselves as 'music' phones.

Designing: The design does have some distinctive features but then those who have seen the LG Chocolate would trace some similarities in the Rhythm. However, what is appreciable is the mechanical scroll wheels that somehow manage to look blended in the overall design which includes a sleekly-designed slider chassis and very perceptive navigational keys. Another aspect that lends a touch of class to the presentation is the smoothness of the edges that are curved in an unconventional, restrained manner that helps to negate any notions of a box-like appearance. The back cover has been very well done with a textured touch to it and this makes the phone appear much high-end than it actually is.

Display: The main display is rather large for the Rhythm's price and measures 2.0 inches and it appears a lot bigger upon its humble-sized frame. The image clarity is confirmed with the presence of 240 x 320 pixels of brilliant resolution. There is something new about the menu styling — rather than the standard grid and list type of format that is offered in most phones, the default interface has the icons presented in a semi-circle, which appears to enhance the LG Rhythm's reputation as an entertaining phone. The scrolling is very easy and can be done in coherence with shortcuts to Bluetooth, My Menu and the Calendar. The biggest factor that makes the Rhythm's display appear so unique is what lies in the middle of the scroll wheel — you will not find the conventional Menu or OK buttons but a 1-inch touchscreen that is presented in a simple but very elegantly-done circular shape.

Other features on Offer: There is a phone book to support a thousand entries along with the provision to note down memos and use two e-mail addresses along with 120 MB of user memory. The music player is perhaps the best in the market and it has been enriched with a very interactive user interface. In fact, the number of options it offers can be compared to any good MP3 player. Songs can be categorized under artists, genres or albums and your music numbers can be played in full or list view. More choices are offered in the form of viewing music spectrum or the album art when listening to songs. Further, there is an option to create and edit animations that can be viewed when playing songs. These features have been combined with a 1.3 Megapixel camera that might seem simplistic for a device that is breakthrough in many ways, but then it helps to get the pricing right.
