Technical Details

The VX4500 is a dual-band phone that operates on both Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) frequencies: cellular services at 800 MHz and Personal Communication Services (PCS) at 1.9 Ghz.

CDMA technology uses a feature called DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) that enables the phone to keep communication from being crossed and to use one frequency channel by multiple users in the same specific area. This results in a 10-fold capacity increase when compared with analog mode. In addition, features such as soft / softer handoff, hard Handoff, and dynamic RF power control technologies combine to reduce call interruptions.

The Cellular and PCS CDMA networks consist of MSO (Mobile Switching Office), BSC (Base Station Controller), BTS (Base station Transmission System), and MS (Mobile Station). The following table lists some major CDMA standards.

VX4500 specifications

The LG Electronics VX4500 is a significant mobile device that garnered attention when it was launched in the early 2000s, known for blending functionality with an appealing design. It primarily targeted users seeking reliability alongside a compact form factor.

One of the standout features of the VX4500 is its clamshell design, which not only protects the keypad and screen when closed but also delivers a sleek appearance. The phone incorporates a vibrant color display with a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels, providing clear visuals that enhance user experience, especially when navigating menus or viewing text messages.

Technologically, the VX4500 supports CDMA networks, enabling it to deliver robust voice quality and reliable connectivity.
