LG Announces New Netbook for US

25 Nov, 2009, 3:54 pm IST | Shayne Rana | Netbooks

LG Electronics has just announced a new addition to their product line-up with the launch of the LG X120 netbook. The first of its kind from LG, the LG X120 is designed to deliver the benefits of netbook functionality and give users a shortcut to the fun stuff with a new UI called Smart On.


"We created the LG X120 to allow consumers to stay connected on their own terms," said Ehtisham Rabbani, vice president of product strategy and marketing for LG Mobile Phones. "The Smart On(TM) button puts consumers seconds away from the fun stuff such as showing off your vacation photos or picking your fantasy football line-up."

Weighing only 2.8lbs, the slim LG X120 can offer users the computing power of a laptop with the freedom of a mobile device. Equipped with an innovative Smart On interface that’s supposed to load in seconds, the LG netbook connects to web and photos, instant messaging and the MP3 player with just the touch of a button. Designed with a white matte exterior and a blue trim, the company says that the LG X120 can deliver up to 7 hours of battery life and comes with built-in AT&T 3G wireless connectivity.


The LG netbook also features 1GB RAM and 160GB with a 10.1-inch LED backlit screen. A built-in 1.3 megapixel camera and HD stereo speakers are also on board. The LG X120 also includes a traditional start up feature booting the complete Windows XP Operating system.

The LG netbook will be available at select Radio Shack stores only in the US and online at www.RadioShack.com for Rs. 8,334 ($179.99) with a 2-year AT&T DataConnect service agreement, a $60 monthly 5GB plan. Maybe we’ll see an Indian version of the same. One can hope.
