Each of these input methods is assigned to the tasks at which it is most efficient, making LG’s highly intuitive interface possible. With its user-optimized navigation, all of the phone’s functions and features are instantly accessable.

“Our consumers told us that they wanted a phone that had plenty of multimedia features, but doesn’t take a long time fiddling with menus to figure out. We created the LG-KF700 based their insight,” said Dr. Skott Ahn, CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “Internal research showed that a phone’s multimedia features often lay dormant if they are hard to access. On many phones these features are hidden deep in menus, requiring too much time and effort to find them. The LG-KF700 eliminates these endless menus with its intuitive interface and multiple input methods.”

LG T80 Touchscreen PMP Launches with DVB-T

T80

LG has taken a break from designing phones to launch T80. The web is buzzing with news of a new MP3 player launched by the company that appears to take design cues from their phone range.

Offering a 3-inch, 420 x 240 resolution screen, the T80 has the added bonus of a DVB-T (the mobile TV standard for Europe) tuner.

The player supports “numerous” multimedia formats, including AVI, WAV, MP3 and JPEG and also offers an FM tuner and microphone for voice recording.

Memory capacity comes in at a fairly unimpressive 4GB while battery life is reported to be two hours when watching TV via the in-built tuner and 6 hours for all other features.

So far LG has only announced the Viewty-like T80 in Denmark, where the device costs around 300 euros, a rather steep £250.

New KF300 Slim Fashion Phone by LG

 KF300

LG finally revealed the mysterious LG KF300 – a name tag that surfaced not long ago without any further information available. As it turns out, the LG KF300 is the GSM variant of the CDMA-only LG SV300 Wine phone.

The KF300, to be brutally honest, while it looks slim and sleek does give off a bit of a girls-only type vibe. And that’s not a bad thing ladies. It’s a flip phone with a 2.2-inch QVGA display on the inside and a 1.3-inch TFT screen on the outside. The external screen has a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels and the inside has a 240 x 320 pixel resolution with 256K colors. It’s quite the feature rich phone with a 2 megapixel camera with auto-focus to boot, Bluetooth, microSD card support, an FM radio as well as a media player. The KF300 will also support EDGE / GPRS. From the images you’ll also see that there are also a few shortcut keys located right under the screen. It also has a five way nav-pad and rather large keys which is surely a good thing.

The LG KF300 will be available in black and pink. Unfortunately there seems to be no price tag associated with the handset yet.
