LG and Dolby Laboratories announced that LG would be the first handset maker to incorporate Dolby Mobile technology into its handsets.
Announced during this year’s Mobile World Congress, Dolby Mobile is an optimized-for-mobile audio processing technology platform designed to “deliver rich, vibrant audio and dramatically improve listening enjoyment.”
Some of the Dolby Mobile features that LG plans to incorporate into its phones include:
- Mobile Surround, which delivers a realistic surround sound experience using headphones
- Sound Space Expander – creates a wide, rich and spacious soundstage experience especially suited to music playback
- Natural Bass – adds powerful boost and bass extension
- High Frequency Enhancer – enhances music and other content by restoring high-frequency effects
- Graphic EQ – helps tune the audio experience for different content types
- Sound Level Control – helps level out audio for a more consistent playback volume
- Mono-to-Stereo Converter, which improves the playback experience of user-generated content
LG will be launching high-end multimedia phones that incorporate Dolby Mobile technology starting from Q4 2008.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
