The LG Cookie is not a smartphone and lacks high-end features like Wi-Fi or GPS. However, it delivers on the looks department. This handset sports a sleek and thin design with a 3 inch touchscreen with stylus and handwriting recognition. It resembles the recent crop of touchscreen phones like the iPhone.

Let's admit it. Design is one of the most important feature on the phone. A popular but bulky phone will only be coveted by tech geeks while a slim but limited phone will always be a hit with young and old users alike.

However, the LG Cookie also sports a nice set of features to go with its sleek dimensions. This phone offers a 3 megapixel camera with video recording. Users will also get Bluetooth, MP3 music player and FM radio. You might say that it's a good phone for entertainment.

The price is also a big factor in bringing this phone success. It cost less than two hundred dollars unlocked which is a great price for a classy touchscreen phone with solid features.

There we're also some minor complaints noted at some LG Cookie Reviews. For instance, the touchscreen and it's Flash UI were bot as responsive as some users expected. The lack of WiFi was also a sore point for some users.

Overall, the LG Cookie is a good point. The number of units sold will attest to that. The reviews were also solid, offering an explanation why it's so popular.
