LG Touch UI

Today LG took the next step towards revealing the identity of their BL40 fashion phone. Official photos of the device appeared on the manufacturer's web site showing the LG Chocolate successor in its full shine.

LG are yet hesitant to reveal the exact specifications of the new LG Chocolate, but the official announcement that's rumored for August should clear things out.

As (rather trustworthy) rumor has it the LG BL40 Chocolate will run on the latest S-Class interface, sporting an extraordinary 4" touchscreen display with cinema aspect ratio of 21:9 and a resolution of 800x345 pixels. With a waistline of only 10.9mm, the LG BL40 will also have a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash, Wi-Fi, GPS and 3G support.

The new LG Chocolate also has some sort of Dual Screen UI to help utilize the extra wide display better by showing two different types of content simultaneously.

We are also pretty eager to see when the LG BL42 little brother of the BL40 will get official confirmation. The slim slider has retained more of the spirit of the original LG Chocolate designwise, but its specs are an almost complete mistery so far.

The new LG Chocolate will be available beginning Q3 in 54 countries world-wide.
