LG has just launched the InTouch Max GW620, which is the company’s first Android mobile handset. LG have been slower off the mark than the likes of Motorola and HTC with their multiple Android OS devices, but could quickly get up to speed if this is an example of what’s to come
The LG InTouch Max boasts a 5-line QWERTY and touchscreen keyboard, making it simple to type and especially convenient for social networking. The phone is ideal for people who want to stay connected and up-to-date with their friends, relatives and online lives 24/7. With a Social Networking Manager built-in application (Linkbook™), you can also go straight to your friend’s social networking profiles from your contact list.
Other features include Auto Face-tagging, which automatically recognises your friend’s face on a tagged photo. The Face-to-Action means you can call, SMS, MMS or join your friend’s social networking site simply by touching their face in a picture. The LG InTouch Max also comes with a 5-megapixel camera that captures high quality images and videos which can be displayed on the 3-inch touchscreen and a 1500mAh battery, which promises plenty of talk and stand-by time.
The LG InTouch Max GW620 has launched in the UK on the following network providers:
- T-Mobile – Free on £20 a month, 24 month contract (with unlimited data)
- Virgin Media – Free on £22 a month, 18 month contract (with unlimited texts and data)
Hopefully at some point soon we’ll get a device in to IntoMobile Towers for review, but for now you can find more info here.
