  • LG Vu gets official on AT&T; Coming in May

    AT&T used all the glory of CTIA Wireless to officially announce what we already know. LG Vu is heading towards the carrier's portfolio and it's landing in May. Yap, folks you can't buy the stylish today as AT&T seems to want to postpone the Vu release to coincide with the roll-out of their mobile TV [...]
  • LG Vu specs are here!

    We finally got the official specs of the upcoming LG Vu phone. The stylish, all-touchscreen device will come in two flavors, with one of them CU920 sporting a mobile TV antenna and other one (CU915) coming without mobile TV support. Rest of the specs include: 3G (we guess HSDPA support is also on board) 2 megapixel camera [...]
  • LG Vu promo materials hitting AT&T stores

    According to our earlier intelligence, AT&T should have launched the LG Vu yesterday. While that hasn't happened, we did spotted promo stuff for the device hitting the AT&T stores. Now I would like to say - it's coming today or on Monday, but I simply can't state that. Earlier, we saw the carrier cancelling the [...]
  • LG Shine now official on AT&T

    Yap, we’ve already reported the LG Shine is hitting the AT&T stores and now it’s official. We know many of you folks crave for the piece of the “shiny love” — or at least, that’s what we hear on our forums — so get dressed and visit one of the “select AT&T retail locations,” whatever that means. Or even better hop over to the carrier’s website and take it from there. The price you ask? It’s $149.99 after a two-year agreement and a $50 mail-in rebate… Full release follows after the jump. PRESS RELEASE - AT&T Inc. and LG Electronics MobileComm U.S.A. Inc. (LG Mobile Phones) today announced the availability of the new Shine by LG, a stylish new multimedia device for mobile phone users who want to stand out in a crowd. The Shine by LG arrived in stores Nov. 23, the day after Thanksgiving — “Black Friday.” The Shine by LG is a sliding form-factor device, offered exclusively through AT&T, that features a silver exterior and comes with video, music and camera features and a 2.2-inch mirror LCD screen. The device is pre-loaded with the best of AT&T’s features, including AT&T Video Share, Mobile Banking, AT&T Mobile Music and more. The Shine by LG is designed to satisfy the needs of mobile phone users who want style and glamour in their state-of-the-art mobile device and wireless service. “This is the kind of device that people will stop and ask if they can hold it,” said Carlton Hill, vice president of Product Development for AT&T’s wireless unit. “The Shine by LG will be appealing to anyone who believes that a mobile phone should work well and look great.” “Metal is back and taking on a whole new look with this season’s must-have mobile phone, the Shine by LG,” said Ehtisham Rabbani, vice president of Product Strategy and Marketing at LG Mobile Phones. “Consumers will be captivated by the Shine’s...
  • LG Shine hitting the AT&T stores?

    We’ve already reported that AT&T wants a piece of LG’s “Shiny” and “Prady” action (oh my God, this sounds horrible). Now, according to Engadget’s tipster, it seems that the first LG Shine devices are appearing in the carrier’s stores around the country. And while we can’t confirm anything at this stage — there’s no official word from AT&T — it kinda makes sense to push them before Thanksgiving, and prepare for the “record-breaking” Christmas season. Finally let’s talk about price. If you happen to like the LG Shine, you’ll have to pay $150 (after $50 rebate) and sign for a two-year agreement — or you can browse through eBay, buy an unlocked device and take it from there… [Via: Engadget Mobile ] ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:AT&T to add LG Shine, Prada phones soonApple iPhone will launch only in Apple Stores and select AT&T storesShine Folder - a clamshell ShineAT&T Rushing to Re-brand Cingular as AT&T in Anticipation of Apple iPhone LaunchLG Shine Gold edition
  • AT&T to add LG Shine, Prada phones soon

    It seems that carrying the iPhone is just not good enough for AT&T. According to the Gizmodo’s spyshots above (and more on their site ), the iPhone carrier will be introducing LG Shine and Prada phones in the near future. At this point, we’ve no idea how distant that future is and when you’ll be able to actually see the two devices in the AT&T retail stores. But I think it’s safe to bet that the carrier will want to benefit from the Christmas shopping season. Stay tuned, as we keep reporting on these two beauties… ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:LG Shine Gold editionLG KE850 Prada Phone plated in 24 karat goldLG Shine - now in RedLow(er)-end Shine - LG Shine KX256LG KE970 Shine Gold Edition
  • AT&T officially announces LG Trax

    We saw this coming … The ultra-thin LG Trax is a mid-range music phone which unlike similar devices offers much more than simple music playback. For instance, there’s the stereo Bluetooth support, as well as the 3G/HSDPA radio that will allow users to quickly download tunes from AT&T Mobile Music service — Napster and/or eMusic . In addition, the LG Trax is also MobiTV and XM Radio Mobile-capable device, plus it will support other AT&T services such as AT&T’s Cellular Video (CV) and the recently launched AT&T Video Share . It has a standard 1.3 camera, along with the accompanying built-in software, which allows modification of the photos — rotate, resize and crop — directly from the handset. And of course, there’s the good ol’ microSD expansion slot that can boost Trax’ storage capacity up to 4GB. If this sounds like your tune, you should visit one of the select AT&T retail stores or AT&T’s site starting from August 14, when Trax will start retailing for $129.99 after a mail-in-rebate and a two-year service agreement. ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:Hold off on AT&T's LG CU500 - LG CU575 "Trax" may be on the way!Pictures: LG Trax, will launch on AT&T by the end of this monthMotorola Announces Even More MotomobilesAT&T Will Upgrade Its High-Speed Network With Faster Upstream SpeedsAT&T to offer unlimited SMS for families: $29.99
