LG announces KF-510 slider smartphone

LG Electronics has officially announced its sleek and stylish KF-510 slider smartphone, which should be available at most major mobile retailers in Europe from the end of March.

With energy-efficiency in mind, the handset has an Auto Luminance Control (ALC) feature, which automatically adjusts the brightness of the LED screen to help conserve battery power.

From the LED touchpad the user can navigate an Interactive Touch Lighting system to control the animated menu.

The phone is 10.9mm thin and features a 3-megapixel camera with power flash and a one-second response time. There is also an advanced MP3 player that enables the user to automatically sort music into play lists or categories.

The KF-510 is available in “Stardust Dark Gray” and “Sunset Red”, and as well as Europe, it will be launched in Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and Asia in April. Pricing information is not yet available.

LG Electronics is the world’s fifth largest handset maker.
