Got your fill of Iron Man in the theatres this past weekend? We’ve got a bit of icing on the cake for you. In commemoration of the Blockbuster film, LG and Paramount have put their muscle together to bring us the LG Special Edition Iron Man Shine. This slide handset comes in Tony Stark red, […]

Shhh, LG has a Secret to tell sell you. Ok that was pretty lame, but there really isn’t very much that’s lame about LG’s newly announced carbon fiber-accented Black Label handset dubbed "Secret". This sucker is packed to the brim with looks and features to match. The fact that LG stuffed these specs into a […]

Bye bye Chocolate, hello VX8610. We’re not sure what feisty nickname this puppy will end up with, but at least we can all be sure of one thing: The VX8610 is coming to Verizon, and pretty soon. We told you about the upcoming Chocolate successor back in February and now that more pics are coming […]

One after another, LG continues to come with the sexy new handsets. The latest addition will drop in Europe on April 24th and will be the third entry into LG’s "Black Label" line of sleek higher-end handsets. Known specs are limited at this point; heck we don’t even have a name or a model number […]

So we all heard last week that MediaFLO was finally making its way to AT&T next month. This is great news for existing and potential AT&T customers who have been waiting for a high-quality live TV service from the carrier. At CTIA, MediaFLO had little booth tucked away with two Verizon handsets on display and […]

LG just won’t stop and we’re loving every minute of it. The name CYON will likely stay local to Korea but call it whatever you want, this latest handset preview from LG is an absolute stunner. The LH2300 will be marketed as a ‘Touch Web’ phone and although we only have a few media pics, […]

LG appears to have its game face on in 2008, at least as far as fashion phones are concerned. We’ve already reported on several sweet-looking LG handsets making their way to US carrier hands and it looks like the cycle continues. Phone Arena scooped a PRADA-like handset that just made its way though the FCC […]

It looks like the ad that leaked on HoFo a few weeks ago was indeed the real deal. Alltel hasn’t announced it just yet but LG has posted a press release on its Korean site making the device official. LG’s Glimmer is one smooth mofo; a slim profile, metal case and sleek styling cues make […]

LG might not be popping out the most capable handsets in the world, but man is the LG design team cranking out some good looking stuff. Rumor has it that LG may have at least two new fashion-centric handsets in store for us this week or next week at CeBIT; the KF240 music phone and […]

A HoFo member scooped an advertisement showcasing what looks like it will be a helluva pickup for US carrier Alltel. In terms of appearance the LG Glimmer, as it has been dubbed, is a very good-looking cross between a Shine and a Viewty; a sleek and sexy touchscreen slider with the familiar LG-styled keypad tucked […]

LG has just unveiled the new KF510, a mid-range fashion phone that will become available in March of this year. They even hired a couple of cute booth girls to pretend to like it, so even if you have no interest in the phone at least you have something to look at. The funky slider […]

We just got a shot of what looks like nothing less than an AT&T Valentine’s Day promo poster. It shows of a red Blackjack II, a red BlackBerry Curve 8310, and apparently a red LG Shine. It doesn’t look at that bad either, does it? Looks like AT&T is still running that "limited time" offer […]

We had the opportunity to spend a bit of quality time with LG’s new Viewty handset today at CES. After a bit of menu and feature exploration, we can say that this is a pretty nice high-end feature phone. The Viewty’s biggest claim to fame is it’s optical lense and imaging features, which allow for […]
