Furthering LG Electronics’ Pioneering Position

Amman, Jordan,  LG Electronics (LG), a major player in the global flat panel display market, and Darwish Al Khalili (one of the Middle East Group Complex of Companies and an LG agent in Jordan) recently launched the second edition of its unique Scarlet LCD TV series, the LH70 (New Scarlet), that combines the highest level of slim sophistication and sleek refinement with incredible picture quality. The New Scarlet is now available to LG customers throughout Jordan, in all Darwish Al Khalili & sons showrooms.

With the New Scarlet, LG Electronics has engineered a unique product, available in different sizes: 42 inches, 37 inches, and 32 inches, with larger sizes to hit markets soon. The Scarlet series delivers attractive aesthetics, and outshines similar technical specification LCDs.

The Managing Director of LG Electronics Levant, Mr. Kevin Cha, said, “We, at LG Electronics, present this second edition of the extraordinary Scarlet series, the LH70, fulfilling part of our commitment to the Jordanian market. We constantly strive to turn out the very latest in the world of electronics in record time.” He added, “We trust that customers will enjoy this TV’s high-performance, and its innovative design and user-friendly interface, and we shall continue to launch more exceptional products, giving new value and setting new trends in the business.”

From his end, the Middle East Complex’s Chairman of the Board, Mr. Osama Al Khalili, said, “The Scarlet series embodies LG Electronics’ genius and creativity in terms of design and engineering, making it the best option for consumers. This technological innovation considerably broadens the horizons of the LCD industry, making it a source of both pride and pleasure to present it, together with LG, to our customers throughout the Kingdom.”

Within this context, the New Scarlet LH70 is not only a joy to watch thanks to its sleek screen, the slimmest in the world at 1.6 inches, but is also distinctive in that it embodies LG’s concept of enhanced aesthetics in its state of the art hidden technology. The LH70 stands out with its unique features, such as Bluetooth connectivity, allowing viewers to connect directly to mobile phones and thus view mobile pictures and movies and play music. For a truly immersive viewing experience, sound is just as important as picture quality; the LH70 incorporates LG’s invisible speakers provide dynamic, fully enveloping sound and further create great sound, incorporating LG’s Clear Voice II system, which digitally enhances voices to make them easier to hear.
