However, if compared to the local mobile phone brand with the same price level, LG GB106 body can appear more captivating with the dominance its black color.

The back cover carved with a labyrinth motif, which makes it feel rough and be comfortable. The rest, nothing special. Composition screen with the keypad is also quite comparable. It makes sense for the low end mobile phone, also radiated from the texture keypad. Although the model of restraint and the cavity between the keys is quite thin, but the use of hard rubber material make the press action each key feels less comfortable.
