LG Launches The LG HB620T DVB-T Phone In Europe

LG Electronics has just launched its mobile TV phone, the LG HB620T in the European market.

The HB620T includes a DVB-T digital TV receiver. DVB-T is what most people would regard as standard terrestrial digital TV signal, used in the UK for Freeview boxes and more or less everywhere else in Europe. Prior to this, most mobile phones which would receive a digital TV signal utilized DVB-H, which is a variation of the domestic DVB-T signal, but designed for mobile devices.

Other features of the HB620T include a 2 megapixel camera, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, Bluetooth, web browsing and multimedia playback.

LG Prada Being Redeveloped

LG Prada Being Redeveloped

NTT DoCoMo will be busy redeveloping the LG Prada phone, targeting a June release in Japan. Interesting features will include a haptic feedback(force feedback, in simpler terms) for the full touch screen display, not to mention a 2 megapixel German-made Schneider-Kreuznach lens with auto-focus. Browsing the internet on the 3 inch touch screen should be a pleasant experience, thanks to the 7.2Mbps data speed.

Phones in Japan generally differ a lot from phones available to the rest of the world, so it remains to be seen whether this phone will be released to the rest of the world.

LG Viewty now comes in Purple

LG Viewty now comes in Purple

You can pick up a purple LG Viewty, an exclusive color available only from UK's Orange wireless carrier. Heck, it might come in some god-awful shade and I still won't mind picking one up. After all, how can you turn down a 5 megapixel camera with Xenon flash, a full-body touch screen display and HSDPA connectivity? The purple LG Viewty can be yours for free, only if you sign up for Orange's new, qualifying wireless plan.

LG to challenge iPhone

LG to challenge iPhone

LG is not going to let the iPhone continue to win more market share over other handsets, and plans to check Apple's wonder handset by releasing a new range of cell phones that feature touch screen user interface as well. After all, LG was the first company to release an 'iPhone clone' with the Prada KE850, although that was released a couple of months before the iPhone ever saw light, it showed just how much of a hype Apple's iPhone managed to garner way before its release. I guess to go up against the iPhone takes plenty of guts, the right device and moment, but it is always nice to see other companies try to outdo their competitors as the customer will win out in the end.

LG Voyager Not Exclusive To Verizon

LG Voyager Not Exclusive To Verizon

Guess Verizon won't be the only carrier in the US to offer the LG Voyager in the near future, with LG planning to release this smartphone via AT&T and Sprint as well after seeing it perform gangbusters sales figures of over 1.1 million to date via Verizon. No idea on whether there will be any changes made to the handset when it debuts on both carriers, but it would be nice to see HSDPA-based 3G access being made available for AT&T while Sprint's model ought to see the launch of a broadcast digital TV service.

LG KF750 Official but Nameless

LG KF750 Official but Nameless

LG's KF750 is the third generation of the Black Label series, but it still lacks a name unlike its predecessors, the Chocolate and Shine. What do you think would be a name apt for the LF750? No matter what your guess is, April 24th is the official date where the brand name will be revealed, along with the handset's complete specifications. The only details we know about the KF750 is it carrying a 5 megapixel camera while using pretty hardy materials like carbon fiber and tempered glass.
