LG unveils unveiling of slimline sliderphone

Full specs next week

LG is building up the hype for its latest handset by announcing that it will... er... announce the phone at next week's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

LGKF510

LG's KF510: touch-sensitive

Looking much like Samsung’s G800 slider - reviewed here - the LG-KF510 is 10.9mm thick and incorporates a three-megapixel camera. LG will unveil the handset again, this time detailing all of its other features, in a week's time.

We do know though that it has a built-in MP3 player and a tempered glass faceplate, which incorporates touch-sensitive controls dubbed “advanced touch technology” by the Korean manufacturer.

The LG-KF510 will be available next month in either Stardust Dark Grey or Sunset Red. There's no word yet on pricing.
