In one of the better rumors flying around the internet it appears there is a new smartphone from LG that has surfaced in Korea.  This new phone known exclusively by its model number LG LU2300 is just another Android phone to be released.  The Android 2.1 device is on par with Google’s Nexus One and HTC’s Desire.  The LG LU2300 comes equipped with a 1GHz processor, 3.5” WVGA AMOLED capacitive display, 5 megapixel camera, 720p DivX compatibility, DMB tuner and of course the ever popular GS, Wi-Fi and 3G combination.  With a set of features like this it is no wonder why people would put this device on par with the other Android power houses such as the Nexus One and Desire.

While it is unknown if this device will ever see a US release it is certain that this device would be able to compete with the other big players in the Android market space.  With comparable features the LU2300 would have no problem attracting buyers in the US market.  I highly doubt that many consumers would have a problem with another fantastic smartphone hitting the market from which they could choose.

It is a shame that this device is not currently being offered in the US.  From the sounds of it this phone appears to be a powerful Android device and has many of the characteristics that unlocked mobile device consumers are looking for.  Personally I would like to get my hands on one of these phones to test out the various functions along with the full QWERTY keyboard while checking out that impressive 1GHz processor that this device boasts.  Only time will tell if those of us in the US market will get to see this device up close and in person.

If you have ever wished you could own a more eco friendly cell phone then Sprint has a new announcement that you might be quite interested in.  Sprint is coming out with the very Earth friendly LG Remarq.  The LG Remarq is going to have a slew of features that are designed to help save the environment and is even going to have an Eco Calculator so you can calculate just how much CO2 you are pumping into the atmosphere.  The LG Remarq is going to be made up of partly recycled plastics and the entire device will be 87% recyclable when it comes time to get rid of the phone.  Not only will the phone be recyclable but the box it comes in will be made of recycled paper, printed with soy ink and will not contain any paper manuals.  All of the manuals will be made available online so as to save on paper products.

 Specs wish the LG Remarq is not all that remarkable.  The phone is set to come with a sliding QWERTY keypad, 1.3 megapixel camera and QCGA display.  While these are rather pedestrian specs it is the way the phone makes you feel good about yourself for doing your part for the environment that sets it apart from other mobile devices.  The LG Remarq is set to hit store shelves on May 9^th for $0 on a two year contract and rebates.  So if you are looking to save some money and save the earth at the same time then I would suggest picking up an LG Remarq this May.  Mother Earth will surely thank you for sacrificing a little bit of cell phone to help save the environment, just like the Sony Ericsson Aspen.

The LG mini will be one of the smallest and most compact cell phones to come out on the market.  This slim touchscreen smart phone will have all of the great features that its larger cousins have.  The LG Mobile GD880 may be small in size, but it will be big in the features that it will deliver.

LG has manufactured this new micro mobile phone in a response to the many comments that they have received from users.  Many people have been asking for a slim compact phone that would be easier for them to carry.  They have also asked that this type of smaller phone be a little bit more reasonably priced and affordable.  LG has answered these comments by providing the new LG mini with its thin and elegant styling.

The LG mini sports a 3.2 inch screen, which covers just about the entire firm phone.  For an extra design flare, they have included some metal trim around the edges.  The LG mini has a five megapixel camera, which I am not sure how they actually fit into such small phone.  It allows you to experience the fast Web surfing and you will most certainly be able to keep in contact with all of your friends through Facebook, Twitter and any of the other social networks.

It comes with all the great audio features such as an MP3 player and FM radio.  You also be able to experience video playback and voice record.  The LG mini has the micro USB port and utilizes stereo Bluetooth 2.1.  As far as user applications are concerned, it has all of the useful tools such as your calendar, alarm clock, lists, notepad and has a speaker phone.  It does have the micro ST slot and has 100mb memory.

For those looking for a small compact phone, the LG mini should be able to deliver the functionality and styling that you may need.  This phone should be available to retailers and users by the end of March 2010.  LG has stated that this phone is in response to the numerous comments and that they would sure that it is priced so that many people will be able to afford it.  We may only see it in the European market.  However, you can always purchase this LG unlocked phone as soon as it arrives here at Pure Mobile.

Is it a watch or is it a cell phone?  Guess what, it is both!  Why would anyone want a cell phone watch?  Well, I can think of many reasons.  Matter of fact, I am sure I will be adding the LG Mobile GD910 as an extra unlocked cell phone to my wish list.

Let’s talk about why you need one.  This is a fantastic way of not having to carry a phone in your pocket while you are on your morning run.  I would personally use it the next time I go hiking.  I would not have to worry about where to keep my everyday mobile phone and I can have quick access without having to fumble around in my backpack.  If I really told the truth, I think it is just down right cool, and I could be just like James Bond!

Okay, now that I have convinced myself to get one, I need to make sure it is functional.  This LG GD910 unlocked cell phone has everything included to make it the perfect watch phone.  It is made from tempered glass, so it is great for outdoor use.  It has a stylish silver metal casing and is very thin.  It is a touch watch phone that has 7.2 Mbps 3G HSDPA compatibility.  You will be able to send and receive with this high speed data rate.  It has a built in camera and can perform video calls.  The screen is small, as it should be since it is also a fully functional watch.  It is more than able to send and receive text messages and phone calls are just as simple.

This phone has the large address book and other organizing features.  It has voice recognition and can be used with Bluetooth.  It also has the text to speech for your messages.  It includes a built in speaker for music and has stereo Bluetooth.  Now that I know it has everything I am looking for in a phone, I need to sit back and wait until it arrives here at Pure Mobile.

So it looks like LG is releasing an new phone in their chocolate line.  The new LG Chocolate BL40 looks to be pretty slick.  Not too much is known about the phone right now or even if it will be a tri-band or quad-band GSM phone.

What is known is that the phone will be 21:9 aspect ratio for display.  This means it will be even wider then a wide screen which is 16:9 and it will have a tempered glass screen making it screen resistant.  Other features include:

• Multi-touch input
• Active Flash UI
• Virtual QWERTY keyboard
• HSDPA 7.2 Mbps
• Wi-Fi
• A-GPS

Unfortunately there was a promo video that was leaked but it has been removed from YouTube since then.  LG will likely announce the complete specs for the Chocolate BL40 in the coming months for now we just have this image to tease you with

LG released the original LG KE850 Prada phone back in 2007 and now LG has announced that they will finally be releasing a successor to the Prada called the LG KF900 Prada II.  It is a significant upgrade to the phone with a lot of new features being added.

Among all the new features the phone will now be a quad band phone which was a major complaint of the previous one.  It will have 3G but at this time it will only be for European use, which is a downside.  One of the biggest changes will be the full QWERTY keyboard.  The KF900 Prada II will retain it’s touch screen but now it will have a slide out keyboard for those who don’t want to type everything on the touch screen.

Other features are the, now almost standard, WiFi and Mp3 player, document viewer and it even plays DivX/Mp4 video files.  On top of all this it even comes with stereo bluetooth v2.1 with A2DP and a microSD slot that supports up to 8GB cards..

Now the phone hasn’t been released yet and there haven’t been many reviews or hands on experiences with it either, but as soon as we at puremobile.com get our hands on one we will have a full review.

We have a brand new phone this week at Puremobile.ca.  It is the LG KS360 also known as the Tribe.  It brings back something that has been missing from phones for awhile.  It’s biggest feature is the slide out keyboard.

Now before I discuss the slide out keyboard let’s talk about the other functions of this cell phone.  It’s a tri-band 900/1800/1900 phone with a 2.4 inch screen.  It has a 2MP camera and comes with MP3 player and FM radio.  It even has a MicroSD slot that can be expanded up to 4GB for storage.

Now to the part that everyone wants the full QWERTY keyboard.  It’s nice to put it simply.  I mean it’s nothing too outstanding but it does what it is suppose to.  It is similar to the older LG9100 that was very popular a few years ago and this seems to be the replacement.

The KS360 is a phone a lot of people have been waiting for.  It puts the slide out keyboard back into a phone that is reasonably priced.  Up until now all the phones that have had this function have been over the $500 price point.  Pick it up at www.puremobile.ca.
