Stylish Phones Designed for Young Mobile Generation to Stay Connected

SLOUGH, UK, 5 August, 2010 - LG Electronics (LG) today announced the release of the LG Cookie Series, a collection of vibrant coloured full-touch phones designed to match the unique lifestyles of young “Generation Z” mobile consumers looking for great style and great connectivity.

The LG Cookie Series consists of three full-touch mobile handsets: Cookie, Cookie Style and Cookie 3G, all suitable for younger users or first-time touch phone users. Tailored for the distinctive needs of today’s youth market, the LG Cookie Series provides more versatile texting functionality, enhanced music options, wider social networking support, and a customisable, user-friendly interface and design.

The LG Cookie Series was designed primarily for young mobile phone users who enjoy expressing themselves in unique and stylish ways, whether by phone or one of today’s most popular social networking tools.

All the Cookie phones offer an intuitive and easy-to-use virtual QWERTY keypad allowing for easy texting without the bulk of a physical keyboard. The keypad can be switched from portrait to landscape mode, providing young users with a more convenient texting method.

The LG Cookie Series touch phones make social networking much more enjoyable thanks to dedicated user interface optimised for this type of activity. Users can also keep in touch with their friends through instant messaging and email that support threaded viewing for easier conversations.

The LG Cookie Series also includes a 3.5-inch headphone jack, FM radio and microSD slot for enjoying and easy sharing of music and movies. Add to this a stylish two-tone design and the fun cartoon-styled user interface and the LG Cookie Series easily stands out in the full-touch phone handset market.

LG Cookie 3G allows for faster connectivity and data transmission, always keeping users connected to friends and family. Its advanced e-mail feature utilises the latest in push-delivery technology, instantly alerting users when messages are sent to any of their e-mail addresses. LG Cookie 3G is a perfect choice not only for Generation Z but also for digitally active people who cannot compromise on network connectivity and design.
