As mentioned on our previous article regarding the LG's Optimus series, the Korean company also brought to market, beside the LG Optimus One model described before, the Optimus Chic, which targets the more fashion-conscious users out there, who appreciate a handset that also looks good, beside providing advanced communication features.
So, LG Optimus Chic’s curved lines provide a solid grip and the two-color variants make the
smartphone quite stylish, while its touch-sensitive buttons complete the device’s sleek and minimalist look.
LG Optimus Chic also offers a unique on-screen phone feature which allows users to remotely control the device from their PCs.
Plus, via LG Air Sync, it keeps users up-to-date with its ability to wirelessly sync contacts, photos and other vital information with computer and cloud database.
Compatible with DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), multimedia content can easily be shared with other DLNA certified devices such as TVs, AV systems and laptop computers.
Similar to the One model, the
Optimus Chic also runs the Android 2.2 (Froyo) operating system, which means that it comes pre-loaded with all the Google services available in the case of its sibling, while the rest of the hardware is also quite similar.
However, there's at least one segment where the Chic has the upper hand, namely that of the camera module, this particular handset featuring a 5.0MP, AF camera.
The battery is a bit less impressive, since the 1250 mAh (Li-polymer) power pack only provides a maximum standby time of 450 hrs and a talk time of 300 min.
LG Optimus Chic will be available in Europe starting in November with other markets in Asia-Pacific to follow soon after.
