LG GD510 Touchscreen Phone Launched LG "Pop" With 3MP Camera, 3" WQVGA Display & Optional Solar-Panel Battery

Two years after launching the world's first full touchscreen mobile, the
Prada, and following on its success, the good folks from LG have stepped
in once again by adding to their collection with the new LG GD510, also
known as LG Pop .
Meant as the most compact 3-inch full touchscreen handset ever made, the
brushed-aluminum LG GD510 keeps the stylish form factor but loses on the
extra bulk and unnecessary features that used to make the Prada
expensive. Versatile, yet keeping it stylish simple, the GD510 is
virtually frameless with a narrow bezel of only 4.8mm.
We gave the LG GD510 an optimized feature set which allowed us to
concentrate on making the phone more compact and simpler to use, said
Dr. Skott Ahn, President and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications
Company. Our high-end phones like the Black Label Series New LG
Chocolate (LG BL40) may be getting all the attention but there s a gap
in the market for affordable touchscreen phones that we want to fill.
The LG GD510 delivers all the essentials in communication, multimedia
and entertainment and comes in a compact form factor as well.

LG GD510 loses the S-Class user interface to something less complicated,
comes with a 3 WQVGA display, a 3 megapixel camera, 8GB of built-in
memory and a single home key used for both calling/answering (green) and
hanging up (red). Although there's no Wi-Fi or 3G radios, there's
Bluetooth connectivity. More to it, the handset also manages to appeal
to the green minded by featuring a (much craved for) optional
solar-panel battery cover.
LG Pop (GD510) will be released in Europe mid-October, while the US
customers will get their hands on it by the end of October.
