Critic consensus
“The first Cookie proved to be a smashing success for the manufacturer and it’s only logical to expect its successor will do equally good. However, the market for affordable handsets equipped with touch-sensitive screens has changed dramatically over the last year and the other players have already introduced their own (and quite capable at that) alternatives. The LG Cookie Plus GS500 comes with several truly nice novelty features like refreshed interface, 3G, 3.5mm jack and microUSB port. We highly doubt it the handset will manage to become as successful as its famous predecessor though, mostly due to the oversaturated market and despite all the novelty features it brings that make it a properly balanced cell phone.”

The included software for syncing is also terrible. It ...
I was so excited to get this phone. If only I knew how bad it really was. I got this phone in January 2011.

First of all, I bought it to use on a pre-paid account. I asked the sales person if this would work and they said yes of c...
In Depth
The LG Cookie Plus is a candy bar GSM Quad-band phone capable of global roaming. It’s also the slightly scaled down version of the LG Renoir; it offers a 3MP camera instead of 8MP and lacks support for Wi-Fi and GPS.
The Cookie Plus has a 3-inch resistive touchscreen capable of rendering 240 x 400 pixel resolution. While that’s no longer cause for a floor show the Cookie Plus does provide crisp colors and is easy on the eyes.
Oddly, the Cookie Plus comes with a stylus, which I always thought was a collective geek nightmare from the 90’s. Still, users may well appreciate the stylus as an added input method.
Features of the Cookie Plus include the aforementioned 3MP camera, 2.1 Stereo Bluetooth, microSD expandable memory, MP3 player, FM radio and a full suite of the usual entry level features.
The LG Cookie Plus offers a talk time of up to 3.5 hours and a standby time of up to 350 hours.
