Display
The LG CU500 features a primary TFT display capable of showing up to 65,000 colors, which was standard at the time. While not providing the crisp sharpness and vividness of modern-day OLED screens, it delivered adequate color and brightness for everyday task visibility like reading text messages or browsing through call logs. The secondary external screen was useful for quick glances at notifications and played a role in the phone's aesthetic appeal.
