“Our new 3G LG Touch Watch Phone is stylish, sophisticated and the height of technology, but it’s also undeniably fun. How else can you reenact those scenes from your favorite sci-fi or spy movie?” said Dr. Skott Ahn, President and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “The new LG Watch Phone also demonstrates LG’s technological leadership, proving that we can bring all the components in today’s most advanced mobile phones down to a very small scale.”
LG GD910 watch phone features
At first glance, LG’s new Watch phone appears to simply be a high-end timepiece. LG used materials and stylistic elements found in watches from top manufacturers to ensure that people will be comfortable wearing it for any occasion. The LG GD910 watch phone has a curved tempered glass face, high quality metal casing and is a mere 13.9mm thick. The 3G LG watch phone is as technologically advanced as it is stylish. It is the first touch watch phone in the world to feature 7.2 Mbps 3G HSDPA compatibility, enabling high-speed data transmission and video phone calls using the built-in digital camera.

LG did not sacrifice functionality in favor of size and the Wrist Watch Phone is fully capable of sending text messages, making phone calls, and, of course, keeping accurate time. This is all achieved using the phone’s touchscreen interface on its 3.63cm (1.43-inch) screen and LG’s intuitive Flash Interface. Voice recognition features, which can be used with or without a Bluetooth headset, make it easier to place calls and look up contacts. Text to Speech (TTS) reads text messages and other information out loud for even greater convenience.

“This LG Design Watch Phone is the result of a great deal of research and development, something that is very important to us at LG. We will continue to invest in creating innovative new products and technologies like this and setting trends in the mobile phone industry,” Dr. Ahn said. At the CES show in Las Vegas, LG will demonstrate some of the Watch Phones main features including its Flash Interface, MP3 player, Voice Calling, Text messaging and Text to Speech. The LG Watch phone is set to go on sale in Europe sometime this year. |
