Having announced the KF510 early, LG has added a couple more handsets to its lineup at WMC 2008. The KF700 and KF600 will both carry on featuring the kind of touch technology that has made the Prada and Viewty phones covetable and successful; there's also an update to the KS20 Windows Mobile smartphone.
The KG-KF700 has a touchscreen, Shortcut Dial and numeric keypad for multiple input; it also packs HSDPA support, a full web browser, media player and widgets for a great multimedia experience. There's a high resolution 3" touchscreen LCD and a Shortcut Dial on the back which flicks between commonly used applications quickly. It also acts as a scrollwheel, volume control and more. What's more there's a sliding keypad for quick calling.
This will be available in Europe in mid- March and will become available in other markets in following months.
Winner of a 2008 iF Product Design Award, the KF600 has an "InteractPad"; basically that's touchscreen virtual navigation keys that change function according to the task at hand. There's no remembering which key does what, just a menu that adapts intuitively. There's also a 3 megapixel camera and MP3 player all packed into a pretty, high-gloss finish.
Finally, the KS20 has been updated to ensure an "enriched" mobile Internet experience. The Windows Mobile 6 HSDPA smartphone has the usual browsing / download / push email functions as well as video-conferencing with dual cameras and a simple, minimalist design.
