MWC 2010: LG overview (Mobile Phone, PDA, tech, news, report, repair, unlock)

Now there's an interesting one for you - despite being a platinum sponsor of the MWC 2010, LG aren't among the exhibitors, for … um… cost-saving reasons. They've set up their own booth just outside the Barcelona Fair. Hope it fits their austerity budget.

There were no new announcements on their part, but LG still showcased three devices that they thought were worth attention.

LG GT540

The Android powered LG GT540 was officially announced a while ago by one of their trademark three-specs-are-all-you-need-to-know press releases so its hardware is still very much an enigma.

Nor did they bother to reveal many new specs here either and chose to focus on the social network integration in the LG GT540. OK, access to Facebook on your phone is cool and their approach is pretty neat but we can't see how that's more important than - say - the CPU. But maybe it's just us.

Anyway, the handset runs decently, though nothing spectacular. The occasional lag is there but it won't bother you too much in everyday uge.

However we just couldn't quite get the idea behind the LG GT540 design. We'll say no more. That thing on the photos there is the LG GT540. No, honestly.
