LG officially releases dual format HD-DVD BluDisc player
Remember last week, all of the news stories of a new LG DVD player that had broken the barrier that stood between the new next gen DVD formats? That player, the BH100, has officially been released at CES. Any new news? Yes, they also announced that there will be a drive for the PC released also due in Q1 of 2007, called GGW-H10N. While the BH100 is a proud supporter of 1080p playback through HDMI, component- and composite-video outputs, the... Continue reading
Gearfuse Plumbers: A glimpse of LG’s SLVR-killer KE770 SHINE-candybar
So we know that the keyword for LG in 2007 is SHINE, we have the SHINE slider coming to the European and American markets. How about a SHINE candybar? Well, this is what the KE770 is about. Shiny, silver, smooth screen that does not sink into the body and acts as a mirror when turned off. This has already won some design awards prior the official announcement. For once, a Motorola SLVR-killer without much copying. CES is coming up next... Continue reading
LG jumps on laptop bandwagon with X-Note Z1
The brand spanking new X-Note Z1 laptop is being produced not by a popular brand such as Dell or Sony, but rather LG. with a 12.1 inch screen and a 1280×765 resolution, LG was trying to pack as much as possible into as small a space as possible. LG packed this puppy with a Core 2 Duo T5600, which isn’t the top of the line for processors, but it’s still nice for an LG computer. Play all your high tech... Continue reading
LG releases yet another phone, the SB190
LG just released the SB190, their next phone in the line-up, to their friends in Korea. LG took into account the popularity of the Chocolate, and so again steered away from flip phones, creating another slider. Sliders are great and all, but after a few months the screen starts to get scratch from everyday wear and tear, and then your once cool slider is now a piece of crap, even if it has specs than all the other phones on...

LG makes calligraphy Shine
We’ve all seen the LG Shine (LG-SV420), it’s the full silver metal-brushed slider that has caught so much attention that Samsung decided to copy it. Supposedly, the LG Shine design will be used on GSM phones in 2007, LG hopes to repeat the Chololate sensation. This week LG announced a limited Designer’s Edition to the Shiney slider, with beautiful Korean Hangul Calligraphy engraved at the back. See? You can make something look good without copying the RAZR. Take a look... Continue reading
PC and TV in one: the LG-DA70
LG revealed a new PC and new TV today. What’s so special about that? Well the fact that these two products are in fact one in the same. That’s right, LG added another PCTV to the line, this time brining Koreans into the mix. What’s different about this PCTV from others is that LG took a TV and put a complete PC inside. The PC is packed with a Celeron M430 processor, a 160GB hard drive, and 1 GB of... Continue reading
LG UP3Flat Chocolate MP3 Player to rival Shuffle
Don’t like the fact that Apple has us by the balls with iTunes, the iPod, and every other product they have? So much of what they make requires proprietary software. Break free from the Man with the LG UP3Flat Chocolate MP3 player. LG has figured out that the style of design created with the Chocolate phone is the rage nowadays and is running with it. This MP3 player is in the same style of the first generation iPod Shuffle, the... Continue reading
Elegance with a touchscreen: the LG KE850
First thing that comes to mind when first glancing at the amazing LG KE850? iRiver S10. Not because of size or functionality, but because of the beautiful design that the two devices share. Both have only a screen (save for buttons on the sides), both have a glassed-over black smoothness, and both attract fingerprints like the backside of your iPod. The slim LG KE850 is a cellphone, not an audio player, and it has a touchscreen. The thinness of this... Continue reading
LG L226WT LCD, the first “Vista Ready” Screen
For reasons unbeknown to us, LG’s new 22″ LCD monitor comes equipped with a “Vista Ready” sticker attached on the screen. For the non-tech savvy, this could turn out to be a nightmare. “Oh God! Why does that monitor say Vista Ready, and the one I already bought for Christmas doesn’t! AHH I always get the wrong thing!”. Will this marketing ploy help this screen sell? It just might, but who had to kiss Mr.Gates’ ass to get these logo’s... Continue reading
New LG ‘e-Book’ Concept is Gas-Guzzler
LG has unveiled a new concept laptop they call the ‘e-Book’. No, this isn’t an eBook reader. It’s a forward-thinking laptop, sporting an OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) screen (which is much more energy-efficient than an ordinary LCD screen), a second OLED screen for the keyboard, and a fuel-cell battery. Here’s where things get confusing. Some sources report the battery uses ‘blue methyl alcohol’ (Engadget), while others claim the e-Book uses ‘natural gas, methanol, and other eco-friendly liquid fuels’ (Laptoping). The...
