Samsung Star Wifi vs. LG Cookie Wifi - Entry Level Wifi-Phone Battle - KM555 vs. S5233W
Mikos H. from Cavite DM'd TP this request via Twitter two days ago:
"[TP can you do a definitive comparison table between LG Cookie Wifi KM555 and Samsung Star Wifi S5233W like the one you have for Wave and Galaxy S?] Thanks!"
Hi Mikos!
Here you go. :)
TechPinas' LG Cookie Wifi KM555 vs. Samsung Star Wifi S5233W Definitive Comparison Table
They're almost evenly matched -- with Samsung Star Wifi just having a bit longer uptime and tad more sizable internal memory.
But for me, it all comes down to design identity and form factor. And looking at the two, I favor LG Cookie Wifi. But that's just me. :)
How about you? Which one do you think is better?

How about you? Which one do you think is better?
i think the best for me, the appearance is LG but the LifeTime of the battery is Samsung...
ReplyDeleteyou should have used lgkm555e, there is no difference in the price, and 3g pushmail, and other features are also avalable. i have read the same review from gsm arena and the only plus points of the samsung wifi is its battery time.
ReplyDeletei still think that the L is better, i.e., aesthetically and feature-wise.
is that true that LG KM555 is only 7.8K?
ReplyDeletei was just curious if the LG cookie wifi has downloadable and changeable themes and widgets? and can you customize it with many widgets in one screen? :D and lastly, does LG have that part where you can attach the phone to a lanyard and etc? haha.
