Mobile world seems to be steadily filling up with watch phones these days. While the LG GD910 watch phone is soon coming to Europe next month, Samsung is busy promoting its own S9110 device (did you notice the strange similarity in the numbers, by any chance?). The S9110, which Samsung claims is the slimmest watch phone so far, is only 11.98mm thick. The LG GD910 is 13.9mm thick.
The Samsung S9110, which the company introduced at a press release, comes with GSM dualband network, 1.76” touchscreen display, Bluetooth and speakerphone. This device, though, lacks 3G. The S9110 will retail at about 450 EUR, which is about $639. The S9110 will be introduced in France this month.

The FCC files now include one more smartphone, the LG GW600. This is a Windows Mobile device, which is headed towards AT&T in the US.
Other specs of the GW600 include 3.1MP camera, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, microSD slot, headphone jack and a 20-key QWERTY keyboard. This news, though, has not yet been officially confirmed by either LG or AT&T. Well, we’re waiting as always….

LG Electronics now exults that it has sold over 5 million LG-KP500 “Cookie” phones on a global basis over the last nine months. The sweet and slim Cookie is a full touch phone that comes with 3D accelerator and 3MP camera, besides other features.
LG hopes to reach the 10 million sales mark for the Cookie by the end of 2009. LG has now added on 10 more colors too, which itself shows how much this mobile phone is in demand.

The AT&T LG GR500 Xenon is a very compact touchscreen phone, which also comes with a well-spaced slide-out QWERTY keyboard and powerful multimedia features. Supporting AT&T’s 3G network, this phone also features a brilliant 2MP camera with LED flash. While the phone itself is very sturdy to touch, the slide function of the keyboard is smooth and feels good on the hands. Its 2.8” WQVGA display gives clarity, below which are the dedicated end/send buttons and so on.

The audio reception of the LG Xenon is great and the voice is carried clearly while outdoors. Unfortunately, this phone does not support the sync function and the contacts detail capacity is also a little of a disappointment. The phone’s multimedia experience is as good as expected. While the music download process is fast and very convenient, the built-in speakerphone is much louder than expected. The device also supports fast Web browsing MMS, so that’s a big plus. On the screen are drag-and-drop widgets, which makes general navigation very easy. It is also simple to customize the UI and use it as per your liking.

On the whole, the LG GR500 Xenon is well worth it. We at PhoneArea definitely give it the thumbs up. Go for it, guys!
