With the growing market in music/video handsets, USB sideloading performance is becoming an important specification in a phone. Having high speed USB transfer is becoming a neccessity rather than a feature "nice to have" when transfering with hundreds of MB of files.

Here is comparison of different USB sideloading speed of LG phones:

Based on transfering 1GB filesize from PC to phone:

*LG Viewty: 467sec, 2.19MB/s
LG Shine: 1340sec, 0.74MB/s
LG Trax: 1390sec, 0.737MB/s
LG Chocolate: 1780sec, 0.575MB/s
LG Venus: 1545sec, 0.663MB/s

*LG Viewty wins in the benchmarking because it is the only one that has High Speed USB controller. Despite all the phones are USB v2.0, only one is truly High Speed.

good info, but 1 gig is a ton to transfer all at once for anybody.

Why not try something a little more normal like the size of 2 or three ringtones at a time?

Do you think it would alter the MB/s ratio?

Thats a good point. I dont have the transfer rate for smaller file size. However, I do know transfering 1GB zip file (containning 400 Mp3's) has a higher rate (MB/s) than transfering same 400 Mp3s one by one.

Also, a growing number of phones has movie playback capability in the market. A typical movie in avi format would be around 1GB. So good USB performance is quiet a plus.
