LG has just expanded its line of mobile phones in Taiwan with the release of two new handsets, both looking highly stylish. None of the two has something that users will not find in other devices, but they make a pretty good choice especially due to the appealing design.

KS10 and KG290 are both slider phones, a form
factor which has proved to be highly popular until now, especially because it automatically brings a great amount of elegance, making the developers free of any concerns on how to bring this style through the phone's lines. There is one drawback in this design, as the number of handsets using it has proved to be overwhelming and even more are being added to the thick line of such devices.

The two phones look highly similar and even with devices coming from other handset producers. As compared to the two devices, the KS10 model looks slightly better and also brings some more evolved performances. The phone runs on Symbian S60 and also includes HSDPA technology, which brings data transfers of up to 1.8 Mbps. The phone might prove to be a little thick for some tastes, at 18.5 mm.

On the other hand, the 2.4 inch display screen can support a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, which considerably adds to its good looks. Other specifications also include Bluetooth and USB connectivity as well as a 2 megapixel camera.

On the other hand, the LG KG290 is somewhat slimmer, but still thick, by many standards. The phone comes only with a 1.3 megapixel camera, but also packs an FM radio for entertainment. It lacks most of the evolved functions and can rely only on its good looks and lower price to appeal to customers.

The two slider phones will be available from now on in Taiwan too, although the prices that these two handsets will come at have not been revealed.
