LG has announced the launch of its first mobile phones with “Intenna” FM radio for India. Believe me there’s no error in the spelling in case you’re wondering. These new models, the LG GB110 and the GB106 are bundled as an entertainment package expunging the need to attach headset while listening to FM Radio.
If you’re one of those people who have been complaining about not being able to access the radio on your handset without the earphones being plugged in, then these handsets are just what the doctor ordered. Both handsets are capable of accessing all radio stations without connecting the wired headset to be used as an antenna since they come with an integrated FM antenna. Hence the odd name.
Anil Arora, Business Group Marketing Head, Mobile Communication, LG Electronics Pvt Ltd. said, "We are happy to launch LG GB110 and LG GB106 which offer a completely new experience to its users. These powerful but affordable mobile sets offer mobile music on the move. At LG, we lay emphasis on understanding the customer needs and work towards meeting their expectations through our new offerings. This launch is in line with our philosophy of providing the best to our customers. I am positive that with the key feature of Intenna FM, these handsets will catch on everyone's attention and be well accepted."
Both the handsets are equipped with a 1.5-inch color display, extensive phonebook memory and they also come with a stylish leatherite carry pouch. While the LG GB106 also features an anti theft mobile tracker, the LG GB110 comes up with additional features like a VGA camera, a micro SD card slot (expandable up to 2 GB and 1GB card included) and MP3 full song play back. The company also claims talktime of up to 10 hours and 600 hrs standby time for the GB106 and up to 440 hrs standby time for the GB110.
Available in two colors – black and grey, the LG GB110 is priced at Rs 3,100 and the GB106 is priced at Rs 2,100.
