Congratulations to the LG Optimus 2X Speed Challenge winners!

May 23rd, 2011 by Dave@LGUK
 
How many tablespoons of peanut butter can you eat in 15 seconds? It turns out that 2 is my limit as I control my gag reflex and fight to swallow! Well a round of applause is in order for Pete Wheeler who managed 3 – he must have a stronger stomach than me. For his efforts Pete has won an LG Optimus 2X smartphone as part of the Optimus 2X Speed Challenge running on our LG – Life’s Good Facebook page to celebrate the launch of the dual-core Optimus 2X phone. The other winners of our user-generated speed challenge ideas were: 1....

LG Optimus 2X Speed Challenge. How much peanut butter can you eat in 15 seconds?

May 13th, 2011 by Dave@LGUK
 
I am a creature of habit – I have a cup of tea when I wake up and then when I arrive at work I have 2 pieces of toast with peanut butter. I like peanut butter, or more accurately I used to like peanut butter. To celebrate the launch of the lightning quick LG Optimus 2X we are running the ‘Speed Challenge’ on our Facebook page. Film yourself attempting one of the 5 challenges and the speediest for each will win themselves an Optimus 2X. Watch the video below to witness the last moment I will ever eat peanut butter! See if...

How many times can you kerby a football in 30 seconds? 3. How many beans can you pile up and separate into a different pile can you separate out with chopsticks in 30 seconds? 4....

The LG Cookie Fresh

March 15th, 2010 by Dave@LGUK
 
A few weeks back I reported on the ‘sequel’ to LG’s massively successful Cookie phone. Well it looks like it has not only a tentative release date, but a new friend to go with it. LG’s Cookie Plus will now be joined by the Cookie Fresh! The phone was unveiled at the CeBit technology exhibition in Hanover at the beginning of March. Pitched as a direct successor to the Cookie, the Cookie Fresh will be an entry-level phone aimed at younger users with a three-inch touchscreen and a widget based homescreen that is designed for the user to customise according to...

Combat social networking withdrawals with the GW620 InTouch Max

February 22nd, 2010 by Dave@LGUK
 
Browsing facebook at work is understandably frowned upon under normal circumstances, but not today, for I have a legitimate reason for keeping up to date with social networking on work’s time. The GW620 is packed full of features to enable social networking on the go and I selflessly jumped at the chance to spend some time testing them out.   First on the agenda was Linkbook, which allows quick and direct access to your friends’ facebook pages via your contact list. Adding a facebook link to a contact is incredibly simple, just click a link on the contacts screen that directs you...

The LG InTouch Series

December 2nd, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
 
The traditional definition of community has changed as 58 per cent of people agree that the days of sharing a cuppa over the garden fence is gradually being replaced by a new sense of online community spirit, a recent survey from LG has revealed. The research shows that there is a clear shift from how local communities were developed in the past as we are no longer bound by a postcode which the traditional approach to society suggested. It seems that these new, more flexible communities which don’t require you to travel to meet are thriving through the use of social...

A world without technology

October 21st, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
 
Don't get me wrong, I could not survive without my GW520 through which I email, text message, Twitter and Facebook, sometimes all at once. But there is some special, almost magical about finding an old letter, the smell of an envelope and the sentimental attachments you grow for these feather light paper messages. Just take a look at the example of history created on paper back in 1969, by the lead singer of the Rolling Stones, sent to one of the world's most famous artists Andy Warhol. It would most likely never have been available for us to see had it been...

June 12th, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
 
Now, unless you've never seen an advert ever, you're probably familiar with LG’s chipper ‘Life’s Good' outlook. Well, they've decided to spread the good cheer through Facebook and have developed a cool Facebook application using their ‘Life’s Good formula’ that will pinpoint your personal happiest day of the year.
