LG Mobile Takes To The Catwalk . . .
09/06/06
London, June 2006 - LG Mobile (LG), a pioneer in consumer electronics and mobile phones, unveils a Roberto Cavalli designed limited edition range of its best-selling 3G music phone, the LG U880. The U880 Cavalli model will be available in the UK in a vibrant range of designs.
Exclusively designed by Roberto Cavalli, Italian-born fashion designer famous for his sophisticated glamrock designs and trademark animal prints, the special edition U880 comes in three fashionable colour-ways. Each phone combines Cavalli’s unmistakable animal print with colours that form the range of black, white and gold models.
In addition to being stylish and stunning, the LG U880 Cavalli is sleek enough to fit into even the smallest clutch bag and is the perfect accessory to any outfit. At only 18.2mm thick it won’t weigh down a handbag, even though it is equipped with an array of multimedia features, such as a 1.2 megapixel camera to capture those stylish nights out at the best parties in town and video calling to chat to friends face-to-face. It also offers 3G services that provide access to a vast array of downloadable content essential for any fashionista. Via 3’s services, any socialite on the move will have access to up-to-the-minute celebrity and fashion news and be able to access hundreds of downloadable tunes.
For music junkies, the U880 Cavalli handset boasts a top quality MP3 player, accessed by easy to use external buttons, allowing the latest tunes to be downloaded straight to the phone at the touch of a button. No need to plug into your PC unless you really want to – with the Cavalli U880 over the 3 network, you really can buy music over the air.
Ian Hicks, Senior Manager at LG Mobile, said: “As mobile phones become more and more of a fashion statement, what better way to blend fashion with cutting edge mobile phone technology, than to team up with a cutting edge fashion designer. The Roberto Cavalli U880 is a triumph of form and function and a must have for any discerning fashion guru.”
The LG U880 Cavalli handset is available exclusively on 3 now. For further information on LG mobile handsets, please visit www.lgmobile.com. For further information on 3’s pricing, content and services, please visit: www.three.co.uk.
