LG launches new touch screen phone in SA

LG Electronics today announced the launch of its latest touch screen mobile, LG GD510 Pop, said to be the most compact 3-inch full touch screen phone on the market.

LG Pop follows its predecessor, the KP500, adding advanced features and technology usually found on premium touch screen phones at an affordable price. With a 3-inch WQVGA touchscreen smaller than the KP500, the phone achieves a sleek look, 3 mm slimmer on each side with a narrow 4.8 mm bezel.

The mobile displays only one button serving as a menu, end and cancel keys, with a light around it indicating the phone’s status, either green or red.

Among its multimedia and storage features, LG Pop includes a media and video player, eight gigabytes of internal memory, an user-friendly browser and a 3.0 megapixel camera.

The LG GD 510 Pop is available in South Africa at the end of April from major retailers and network providers, at a recommended price of R1 749.
