Design and Build
The LG U8380's design is reflective of mobile phone aesthetics during the early 2000s, emphasizing compactness and portability. Its dimensions of 95.7 x 49.5 x 23.7 mm and weight of 130 grams make it a sturdy device, easily fitting into pockets and comfortable to hold. The phone, featuring a clamshell or flip-phone design, incorporates a SIM slot for a Mini-SIM card. While modest by modern standards, the availability of a secondary external display is a notable feature for its time, allowing users to quickly view essential information without flipping open the phone.
