S-class UI phones LG-GD900 Crystal, LG-GC900 Viewty at CommunicAsia OCWorkbench 8 May 2009
Press release
The LG-GD900 Crystal is the world’s first
transparent phone and also the first to use LG’s next generation touch
technology. Its fully transparent Crystal Touchpad appears at first to be just
an alphanumeric keypad but it actually doubles as a touchpad. It can be used
exactly like the trackpad on a laptop computer but also recognizes handwriting,
responds to multi-touch commands and offers a new way of navigation called
Gesture Command. Using Gesture Command, users can switch instantly among
applications by simply drawing one of 12 easy symbols on the Crystal Touchpad.
Visitors to CommunicAsia 2009 will be able to experience the magic of Gesture
Command via a large LG-GD900 Crystal replica at the LG booth.
One of the most talked about phones this year has
been the Viewty Smart (LG-GC900). This phone follows in the footsteps of the
original Viewty (LG-KU990), a 5 megapixel camera phone that sold more than seven
million units. The new model features an 8 megapixel sensor and Intelligent Shot
Mode that makes it easy to take great pictures by automatically analyzing scenes
and adjusting camera settings accordingly. This type of technology is rare on
even high-end standalone digital cameras. LG has specially tailored its S-Class
User Interface to make using the new Viewty Smart as easy and intuitive as
possible.
