In addition, the dual folder-type ‘G8000’ can transmit data at the speed of 115kbps. It is also equipped with super-large ten-line color LCD; thus enabling the user to display various color multimedia data such as characters and photos.

One notable feature of this high-tech product is its camera phone and video camcorder function that enables moving image video clips.

“We have recently marketed the third-generation WCDMA device (U8100) that enables communications with moving images. This time, we also exported GPRS camera phone sets to Italy. We expect to establish our reputation in the European market through the camera-equipped color phone with its hi-tech applications that are guaranteed to attract the industry’s attention,” disclosed Yi Ho, LG Electronics Vice President and GSM Overseas Marketing Team Manager.
