LG Mobile Communications today announced the availability of its highly sought-after QuickMemo™ feature for its entire line of Optimus L-Series smartphones through a maintenance release upgrade. Currently, the upgrade is being offered in certain regions including the UK and will be available globally by the end of the 3rd quarter.

LG’s QuickMemo™ feature allows for instant screen capture of any type of content such as web pages, graphical images, photos and videos. Users can write, draw, or jot a memo directly on the captured screen with their finger without the need for a stylus or pen. QuickMemo™ notes can then be shared with others via text, chat, or email. Once users download the upgrade, they will be able to invoke QuickMemo™ by pressing the volume keys or via the notification bar.

“The QuickMemo™ is one of the representing features for LG’s UX (user experience) to enhance the quality of communication by sharing ideas with more personalisation.” said Paul Bae, Vice President of marketing centre of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company.

A global TV commercial with the theme of ‘Connect to What’s Real’ will accompany the roll-out of QuickMemo™ on Optimus L-Series smartphones. The QuickMemo™ upgrade will be available for download through LG Mobile’s homepage or by visiting a service centre in markets where Optimus L-Series are sold.

The Optimus L-Series of smartphones includes the Optimus L7, L5, and L3 which offer timeless style without sacrificing any features or functionality in black or white body. LG will also introduce stylish pink colour edition of the series.

LG QuickMemo takes a smartphone experience to a new level by letting users express themselves in fun, original ways, capturing screenshots of any content – such as map directions to a party or photos of friends – and add their own commentary by simply using a finger to create personalized, handwritten messages and drawings. Screenshots can then easily be shared on social media platforms, via text message or e-mail.

Whether it’s exploring a favorite website or viewing a memorable photo, LG QuickMemo gives users the ability to present ideas in a more fun, personalised way, using LG Quick Memo, people can climb out of the text box and embrace the individuality, tone and even emotion of human communication that can’t be expressed through plain text.
