Here’s a bit of an LG Blog exclusive - Jeremy Newing, LG Mobile’s UK Marketing Manager, talking about the Secret and his ideas for the future of LG Mobile, at the bloggers’ event we held to launch the LG Secret last week: We also managed to collar John Barton, UK Sales and Marketing manager, as he spoke with Helen at the official press conference for the Secret’s release: These videos and more (such as an interview with Simon Perry of Digital Lifestyles) on our brand new LG Blog UK YouTube channel, which succeeds the LG Viewty one we had last year. Of course, we’re not the only ones who’ve been on about the Secret, or indeed videoed about it. Over at Tech Digest Susi has a video review (showing off the tempered glass front). Simon at Zath, Stephen at Gadgeteer and Al at Coolest Reviews both previews the phone - Al especially highlights the m-toy aspects, which I remember a lot of people enjoying at the event. In fact that’s one of the best things about it - was seeing how everyone enjoyed themselves in using the phone, something that I hope we’ll see as more detailed reviews come out in the coming weeks…
Last Friday we had the pleasure of some of the UK’s top tech and style bloggers at an exclusive event at London’s May Fair Hotel to have a look at the new LG Secret (KF750). A good crowd turned up, and as well as meeting us in the flesh, they got a chance to hear from Jeremy Newing, UK head of marketing for LG Mobile.
Jeremy first went through the phone’s features with a presentation, and then he fielded a really engaging Q&A with the audience, talking about the progress LG Mobile have made, LG’s plans for the future, including more open development for our phones, collaborating with users more, and designing phones with “Web 2.0″ in mind. After that our guests got a chance to try the phones hands-on.
I won’t go into to too much detail, as I think it’s best to read what the bloggers there thought instead, so why not check them out - from SMS Text News, Gaj-It and one part truth. There’ll be more to come (including video of the event) over the coming week, so keep an eye out for more…

Today in London, we revealed the name of the third in the LG Black Label line of phones - the LG Secret. The Secret (KF750) is a slender & stylish handset with a slew of enriched technological features, including a 5MP ISO 800 camera, a 120fps QVGA video camera and DivX-certified recording and playback. The camera also boasts a range of filters and modes, as well as on-camera photo editing.
The phone has a touchscreen and an accelerometer motion sensor. It also has auto luminance control, adjusting the screen brightness automatically, saving both battery life and making it more comfortable for your eyes. Inside, the phone boasts an MP3 player and FM radio, a reader for Word, Excel and Powerpoint and is loaded with a specialised Google Package that with a dedicated interface for Google services such as GMail, Google Maps, YouTube and Blogger. It also has Bluetooth AutoSync to synchronise data seamlessly with your PC, and on the fun side a range of games that hook into the motion sensor.
With the philosophy of “style that lasts”, it’s been made out of some of toughest materials around, including carbon fibre and tempered glass, with neon touch navigation buttons that gently light up the interface.
For more information, you can download the press release or the feature list. More photos and coverage can be found in our sneak peak post from a couple of weeks ago, or on the dedicated microsite at secret.lgmobile.com
Update: We have some video of the phone too. Enjoy:

Special Monday morning treat - we’ve got a sneak preview of the third in the highly stylish LG Black Label series of handsets, following in the footsteps of the successful LG Chocolate and LG Shine. Like its two predecessors, the phone is a combination of cutting edge tech with brilliant design, and it will be one of the slimmest 5MP cameraphones out there. With the philosophy of “style that lasts”, it’s been made out of some of toughest materials around, including carbon fibre and tempered glass, to give the phone a timeless elegance.
The new phone’s name is still a secret, but all will be revealed on April 24th at our European launch. In the meantime we can give you a cheeky sneak peek with the photo to the right - enjoy. You can also see shots of the phone from the back, closed and alongside others in the same range. Enjoy!
