New handset offers a brand new mobile experience<\/p>\n

Hong Kong, November 4, 2009 –<\/strong> LG Electronics (LG), a global leader and technology innovator in mobile communications, announced today the worldwide availability of the new LG Chocolate phone (LG BL40), offering customers outside of Europe a closer look at the eagerly-awaited widescreen device. The new LG Chocolate is the fourth handset in LG\u2019s Black Label Series and successor to the highly-acclaimed LG Chocolate.<\/p>\n

Following its inaugural launch in the U.K., the new LG Chocolate\u2019s red carpet event in Hong Kong will showcase the phone\u2019s unconventional design direction and highlight its unique partnerships in entertainment and fashion, including collaborations with designer label Twenty8Twelve and Twentieth Century Fox.<\/p>\n

The event will bring together high-profile names who have been inspired by the new LG Chocolate\u2019s unconventional design, viewing and usability features. Asia\u2019s leading actress Chi-ling Lin from Taiwan and Singapore TV personality and jewelry designer Nadya Hutagalung will share with the audience their personal experience with the new phone.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, as part of LG\u2019s association with Twentieth Century Fox, the new Chocolate phone will come embedded with content from director James Cameron\u2019s epic 3D fantasy, Avatar. Jon Landau, the film\u2019s producer, will be on hand in Hong Kong to introduce exclusive footage of this highly-anticipated movie.<\/p>\n
