Convenient mobility and fast 3G connectivity brings the internet anywhere, anytime
LG Electronics (LG), a global leader and technology innovator in mobile communications, announced today that it is set to launch its smart and stylish new mini-notebook, the LG-X120, in April.
"More and more people are buying portable mini-notebooks, looking for fast and easy connectivity. With LG-X120's powerful assets of portability, fast connectivity and ease-of-use, LG aims to bring the internet to our customers anywhere, anytime," said Mr. Simon Lee, General Manager of LG Electronics in Saudi Arabia.
LG-X120 is a powerful portable computer that can be used anywhere with its 3G HSPA connection and 160GB hard drive. Thanks to the easy-to-use Smart-On interface, the LG-X120 loads its simple Smart-On screen in only five seconds. Just one click of an icon offers access to the most frequently used applications, including its browser, games, MP3 player, Photo Viewer and internet suite.
"With Smart-Link technology and a simple USB cable, LG-X120 connects to regular computers to share files or install new applications, easily accessing data even from the computer's CD or DVD drive. An advanced security function allows users to safely share files while connected to other devices, without compromising important information, added Mr. H. C Lee, LG's product marketing manager in the IT department"
Easy mobility in a stylish design is the LG-X120's one of the important assets. This mini-notebook's soft textured, classic white exterior blends well with any style, while lime or pink detailing add a splash of color. The cover's matt surface resists fingerprints and scratches, and its compact size and curved edges make it the perfect companion no matter where it goes. Weighing in at just 1.2kg, the LG-X120 is lightweight and easy to carry. In addition, improved battery life, at 3.5 hours for the 3 cell battery and 7 hours for the 6 cell battery, means more time to work or play on-the-go.
LG-X120 was specifically designed to provide enhanced functionality and convenience with smarter features, packing a powerful multimedia punch.
The mini-notebook offers a 1.3 megapixel webcam for video chatting or conferencing, while LG You-Cam software allows users to get creative with unique photo snapshots. SRS WOW HD and TruSurround XT bring stereo effect sound to music and video. The screen's LED Backlight delivers a high-resolution picture that is clearer and brighter, which is not only easier on tired eyes but saves energy, too.
The LG-X120 has been in the spotlight since it appeared at the 2009 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. It will initially be available in Korea and Canada at the end of March, followed by other countries including Singapore, Hong Kong, Israel and Turkey later in the month. Its shipment schedule will continue through May to Brazil, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Sweden, Spain, Greece, and Italy.
