LG BL40 Chocolate

LG announced that its all-touchscreen BL40 Chocolate phone is on its way to stores around Europe, whereas the rest of the world will have to wait for October to give it a try.

Announced at the end of July, the BL40 is probably one of the coolest phones of this year, so far. It comes with a huge 4-inch 345×800 pixels capacitive touchscreen, HSDPA connectivity, GPS, WiFi, 5-megapixel camera, FM transmitter, and so on — all which make the Korean company have high hopes for the handset’s prospects. LG’s Dr. Skott Ahn even said: “The new LG Chocolate will dramatically change the way we interact with our phones. The new Chocolate reflects the originality and sophistication of the Black Label Series and like its predecessor, we are confident that the new Chocolate will create its own legacy and further enhance our standing in the market.”

The price is unknown at the moment, but we do expect it to be kinda pricey. It is after all part of LG’s up-market Black Label series…
