LG’s X300 ad Strikes An Amazingly Familar Tone

LG’s X300 laptop may have largely avoided comparisons to a certain other thin-and-light when it was announced at CES earlier this month, but it looks like LG is intent on driving that point home regardless. As you can see for yourself in the promo video after the break, not only has LG carried on the [...]

Pedro Matias Sets New Texting Record At LG Mobile World Cup (Video)

Showcasing the “fastest, most accurate” text messengers (according to the corporation that dreamed up this little publicity stunt), the LG Mobile World Cup Championship went down yesterday at Gotham Hall in New York City. We’re proud to say that the American team fared well — grabbing second place and winning $20,000 [...]

LG Goes Nouveau Nostalgic With First US Mobile DTV Devices

LG just announced its first commercial products for the fledgling US Mobile DTV standard approved in October. First up is what appears to be a DTV-ified LG Lotus clamshell — a phone first introduced in 2008 but now capable of extracting digital TV from the aether with an assist from that telescoping antenna. Also set [...]

LG First To Hit Mass Production With Full HD 3D LCD Monitors

The 3D revolution, whether you like it or not, is gathering steam. LG has just announced the world’s first mass produced Full HD 3D-capable monitor, which spans 23 inches diagonally and looks to sport a pleasingly minimal bezel.

Nokia Sues LCD Manufacturers For Alleged Price Fixing

Price fixing is nothing new in the LCD panel business. Hell, collusion is pretty common across the entire consumer electronics industry though it’s difficult (and costly) to prove. Now Nokia, the world’s largest maker of cellphones, is suing a who’s who of Asian LCD manufacturers alleging a ploy to fix prices on handset LCDs. The [...]

LG IQ (Monaco) Demoed On Video, Coming To Telus ‘This Holiday Season’

Clocking in at 1:48, this glimpse at LG’s IQ (a.k.a. Monaco) is indeed very brief and not much is said. It’s got a fingerprint sensor lock, S-class UI (which we knew), and that backing is definitely Windows Mobile 6.5, but for everything else we’ll have to refer to the previous specs we’ve seen leaked. As [...]

Verizon Launches BlackBerry 8530, LG Chocolate Touch, Samsung Convoy, and Prepaid Data

HTC’s DROID ERIS is arguably the biggest announcement out of Verizon today, but that’s not the only thing getting real this morning — far from it, in fact.

LG GW620 Eve Coming To Rogers, Android Deftly Avoids AT&T Yet Again

It looks like Canada’s Rogers will be among the first carriers in the world to offer LG’s first Android device, the GW620 Eve — and for North Americans, this is particularly notable since it means there’s a version of the device at retail that’ll theoretically work on Bell, Telus, and AT&T in addition to Rogers [...]

Verizon’s Chocolate Touch is A Dead Ringer For The LG SB210

If you want to know what Verizon’s upcoming Chocolate Touch will look like, look no further than this little number, the SB210, that’s just been unveiled for LG’s domestic South Korean market. Naturally we can expect that the firmware will be a good deal different, but the hardware looks exactly like the spy shots we’ve [...]

LG Launches official Site For GW620 Android Phone, Sort of

LG’s GW620 handset may be easy to miss among all the other current Android-based offerings, but it looks like LG is now starting to ramp things up a bit to help it get noticed, with it recently launching (inadvertently, judging from the copy) the official site for phone complete with some fresh new images and [...]
