LG launched its KF600 fashion mobile phone in India, targeting young users who want to have both style and advanced functionality in one handset.

LG KF600 is a sleek slider phone that will easily attract users,
first with its fancy look, then with the unique features it brings. Among them, the touch-sensitive InteractPad (which is, in fact, a secondary display) will surely offer a fun mobile experience, as it comes with haptic feedback and virtual keys, letting you control with ease the device's functions. Only the InteractPad is touchscreen enabled, the main screen of K600 being a 2.0 inch TFT normal display (240 x 320 pixels and 256K colors). Anyway, both displays are scratch-resistant and, together with the eight graphic themes integrated by LG in the phone's user interface, they allow you to personalize the handset according to your taste(s).

LG KF600 has a 3.15 Megapixel camera with auto focus and LED flash that is capable of taking photos at a quite good quality. The camera can also record video, but only at a maximum resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. Other nice features of KF600 include Media player, Bluetooth, FM radio, WAP 2.0 browser, email, Instant Messaging, USB, document viewer and microSD card support (up to 4GB). Measuring 101.2 x 50.7 x 14.1 mm (closed) and weighing 107 grams, the slider comes with a 800 mAh battery said to provide up to 3 hours of talk-time and up to 300 hours of stand-by time.

Anil Arora, Business Group Head, GSM, LG Electronics India, said about the newly released device: "The LG KF600 and the InteractPad reflect LG's commitment in making its handsets easier to use through improved user interface technology. Usability is truly at the center of this handset's design and it represents LG's latest achievement in making phones that connect with their users. This handset offers a mere glimpse into a newly emerging trend in the mobile market. LG is researching and developing new ways to improve usability and will continue focus on features that add practical benefits for users."

LG KF600 is available across India for a retail price of 14,990 INR, meaning about $375 or 240 Euro.

I Have This Phone And To Be Honest, It Is All About Looks. Nothing About The Phone Really Makes Me Think Its Anything Special.
