hi everyone this is Dave from TechnoBuffalo and this is my unboxing and first look of the Prada phone by LG 3.0 better known as model number LG p9 4 0 so a bit of a funny name on this one and in this video I'm going to be giving you an unboxing and first look at this mobile phone the sports a 4.3 inch Nova plus display so let's discover what that is so let's get this round box out of the way and we're into the really nice packaging with the Prada brand on the front here and let's have a first look Wow nicely presented lovely packaging on this one now this particular phone is running Android 2.3 Gingerbread it's got the product user interface which we have a look at in a moment this is the mobile phone itself let's just pop that to one side and see what else we get inside the box very nicely presented so we've got a package here and in here we have got some warranty information we have also got welcome to your Prada phone so quick guide around the interface and this is going to be something a little bit different for me because I've never used something with the LG Prada sort of interface overlaid on top of Google Android so this would be nice to have a look at and then we've got a full user guide which is going to guide us through everything we need to know about the phone then we've got lots of little packages I've got all these let's have a look and see what's in these let's grab this one first it's like Christmas everyday we have got a rather fetching looking headset Wow look at that these are very different and look nicely engineered these are like metal barrels to the to the ear pieces here and then nice silicon tips on top and they're metal construction around the side and then we have got says it got a built in mic it should have we've got in here a little clicky button and on the opposite side the little tiny mic pick up nice-looking headset next package is the USB cable micro USB on one end full-size USB on the other we have got the battery which is an LG battery three point seven volt and let's see if we can find the writing was it on this side here we go 1540 milliamp hour battery five point seven Watts hope that's one side cuz we're going to need that and then I'm in the UK so I get a UK three pin power adapter with a USB socket on this side if you're in the US or another country you're going to get a country specific power adapter inside your box so let's have a very quick look around the handset before I actually put the battery in this sports a one gigahertz dual-core processor 4.3 inch display 800 by 480 resolution one gigabyte of RAM 512 megabytes of ROM internal storage capacity of 8 gigabytes and you can of course expand that with a micro SDHC card now that processor the one gigahertz processor is the OMAP 44 have a look around the back so remove that really nice textures at the back it almost feels like leather but it is of course plastic and then at the top of the handset here we've got the camera which is 8 megapixels with an LED flash autofocus round on this side completely clear this looks like a speaker grille just on this section here right on the bottom we just got the mic pickup and some more plastic to remove by the looks of things as it's got a plastic film on it looks like plastic film all the way around let's just peel this off here we go so they have sort put plastic all the way around the phone to protect it from scratches so beautifully saw packaged and as I say we've got microphone pickup on the bottom here on this side here we've got the volume up and down on the top here we have got two little buttons not sure what they do at the moment we've also got a little cover which we slide across which reveals that micro micro USB socket and three-and-a-half millimeter audio jack this little cover here that feels really nicely engineered very nice indeed then back round to the front obviously we've got the display which we're going to turn on in a short while we also got a front-facing camera 1.3 megapixels it also supports sports re AG sensor proximity sensor and light sensor so all the sensors you would come to expect from a phone by this not only does it capture 8 megapixel images but 1080p video 30 frames per second so let's get this battery into the phone and then I will come back to you with a first look at the Prada interface so here we go this is the phone all booted up and ready to go as I said before it's running Android 2.3 Gingerbread with the Prada user interface over the top it's a very unique looking interface because we've got no sort color so it's very stylized in this or white-on-black affair with all the icons so not only have we got the icons across the bottom here but we've also got touch sensitive icons down the bottom so if I tap just down here they actually light up we've got what looks like a sort of setting button here which pops up any overlay menu we also got home button back button and search button then on the main sort of screen the main 4.3 inch screen we've got access to the phone nice stylized dialer as well and this follows through on most of the user interface let's just tap back to go to home one thing I didn't like that these sort of back light area down here does disappear quite quickly so you have to memorize where these sort of icons are but it shouldn't take too long for you to familiarize yourself with the user interface now let's have a look in applications so here we've got all of our main applications which we can scroll up and down and you also see as we scroll down to the bottom of this section we've got two more sort of drawers here now we can tap on these to expand them and then it leaves them expanded or we can in fact pinch in so if we pinch any apps actually collapses the various categories it's a nice way of organizing applications google apps and your downloads as well so let's just expand the Google service one it shows you what actual Google services are included and then we can collapse that down and then go into the main applications and see what's pre-installed as default so we got some nice applications to choose from of course we've got the Google Market so we can download whatever we want to the handset as well then we in tap back to go to the home screen seven home screens in total we can swipe sort of left to right and right to left to navigate through these it's all good it's all the normal Android sort of things we would like to see but a really nice stylized so user interface not sure I like it it will probably grow on me as sort of time prevails and I've used the handset for a little bit of time let's just pop into the gallery whilst we're here and have a look at a quick snap that I took of my Angry Bird it's just rotate this round now I wanted to show you this because this claims to be a very bright screen it says that it's called an 800 NIT Nova Plus display so at the moment I've left it under standard settings and this is the saw display we're getting let's just go back out to the home screen and I'm going to go into settings and we see just how bright this display goes so let's put it all the way up to full brightness we go back out to the gallery and have another look at this photo and see what it looks like it is a very bright display this translates well into the video for you but this is a gorgeous display very bright very accurate colors and even at this early stage I'm loving the look of this LG Prada display really nice everything seems nice and responsive that's down to that dual-core 1 gigahertz Omak processor it's got a nice amount of RAM also the internal storage capacity which can of course be expanded we've got 8 gigabytes plus up to another 32 given as 40 gigabytes in total this is the Prada phone by LG model LG P 940 and this was very kindly sent to me to review buy clothe technology you can check them out at clove Cola UK where you can pick this up for 429 pounds now that gets you this handset sim free unlocked so you can put any carrier Simonet 429 pound equates to around about 680 dollars in the US well thanks very much for watching this has been david from
