Samsung Star S5233 vs. LG Cookie KP500

A lot of people are asking which of these two entry-level touchscreen phones is better — the new Samsung S5233 Star or the older LG Cookie KP500 — and I’d say they are just brothers from a different mother.

Check out the comparative chart below and you’d be surprised how much specs these two phones share with each other. They’re like clones — down to the thickness.

Of course, the LG Cookie got beaten in the charts by the Samsung Star with a minuscule difference in internal memory, VGA recording and battery rating. The LG Cookie is about 500 bucks cheaper though.

    Samsung Star wifi is hot on the market. I roamed around megamall and galleria but all sold out. Available is the star non-wifi version. If you happen to find the wifi version, buy it asap, or someone else will do. Good luck.
