    August 10, 2006

    The Good: The LG AX490 has a sleek design, a solid midrange feature set, and good performance. It also offers an intriguing new alphanumeric keypad.

    The Bad: The LG AX490 has a dim internal display; the new keypad entails a learning curve.

    The Bottom Line: The LG AX490 is a decent midrange cell phone with a new keypad that should appeal to those who text-message frequently.
