    Creating new budget touchscreen handsets seem to be on the minds of manufacturers these days. Samsung has been riding the wave with its Star Series handsets first, and now with its Corby Series of handsets. In response LG brought out the Cookie sometime ago, and now it was time for a much needed upgrade if LG had to stay in the game.

    So, after a very bland Mobile World Congress session in Barcelona, LG has finally got its act together and launched the Cookie Pep GD510. The Cookie Pep in every way seems to be the handset to replace the older and outdated Cookie. This seems all the more true considering the pricing of the Cookie Pep, which is quite similar to the older Cookie. The Cookie Pep looks all set to take on the competition and has even signed up three Bollywood stars to promote it.

    The Cookie Pep is called the Cookie Pop in other countries where it comes with an optional solar panel doing its green thing for nature. Sadly though green doesn't seem to be the theme for LG in India and so we have the Pep, which is a rather standard version. Let's see how the Cookie Pep warms up to the competition.



    Bundle

    • Stereo Headset
    • 2GB microSD Card
    • USB Cable
    • Charger
    • Manual & Software CD


    It is good to see that LG has still managed to maintain a very decent package along with the handset. The provision of a 2GB microSD card is really good and the addition of a USB cable is welcome. This package in comparison to low priced touchscreen handsets from Nokia is any day better.
