LG 10000 Launched For Reliance India Mobile

LG has announced the launch of LG 10000 (also known as the vx10000 or Voyager in certain places) in association with Reliance India Mobile. We had a chance to check out the handset at this year's Mobile Asia held in Delhi earlier this year. This Communicator lookalike comes with a 2.8-inch external touch sensitive LCD as well as an internal display of the same size along with a full QWERTY keyboard. The phone is targeted exclusively at the premium segment CDMA users.

Steve Koh, country head of LG CDMA elaborates, "This handset is the first of its kind from LG dedicated to our CDMA customers and is of special interest to their business needs. With features like the Full Touch screen, QWERTY Keypad, HTML enabled browser, Push & Pull Mail, it is the most ideal phone in this segment. We have launched the LG Voyager with similar features in the US markets. The LG 10000 is another addition in our endeavor to constantly evolve and give our customers in India the latest in technology, while keeping our products as user-friendly and attractive as possible.”

Some other features incorporated into the LG 10000 include a media player (playback for MPEG 4 formats), a 2.0 Mega Pixel camera with Video Recorder, Extendable Memory Up to 8 GB as well as Office Mail applications for Corporate Mail Access (Push Mail through Microsoft Server, Pull Mail - IMAP and POP3). It also features a full HTML browser. Other media features include a voice recorder and dual stereo speakers. It also supports Bluetooth and external memory via microSD cards.

This handset is being launched across India and will be available at Reliance Exclusive stores and retail outlets with a price tag of Rs. 22,000 – Rs. 25,000 with a 1 GB card included.
