LG launches GM750 smartphone in SA
LG Electronics (LG) announced the imminent launch of three new Windows phones in the next few weeks. The three devices will kick off LG’s most aggressive smartphone strategy to date, which will ultimately result in a total of 13 new LG-branded Windows phones launched globally before the end of 2010.
The three latest additions to LG’s expanding smartphone line-up and the first to include the new Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system include a full touchscreen device, a touch slider with QWERTY keyboard and a QWERTY bar-type handset. The three phones will be aimed at different segments of the market ranging from premium to affordable smartphones.
“With familiar software like Microsoft Outlook, Windows Media Player and Windows Live, these phones will give people the confidence to get things done with the software they would normally expect from their PCs,” said Todd Peters, Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Corp. “LG’s portfolio of stylish Windows smartphones gives people the ability to choose the model that best suits their style and budget.”
Launched in July, the LG Application Store will offer add-ons for all three devices as well as future LG smartphone devices. The site expects to offer up to 2,000 downloadable applications by the end of year.
The GM750 is LG’s first smartphone in SA and will be available in South Africa immediately at R4,599.00
