Just under the touch screen display, you can find the two buttons for calling and ending the call, along with a menu button in between them. When the mobile phone is slid open by pushing the display screen towards the right, the QWERTY keyboard becomes visible.

Memory of the LG GT350

Every mobile phone is loaded with individual memory capacity for supporting the different applications and widgets.
