LG Electronics has placed yet another handset on the fashion runway, following in the footsteps of its successful design-centric models from the Black Label Series.

The Secret is the Black Label Series’ strongest model yet, even outperforming the Chocolate and Shine in terms of design, durability and performance.

The Secret, or model KF750, which made its debut at CommunicAsia, is the Black Label Series’ strongest model yet, even outperforming the Chocolate and Shine in terms of design, durability and performance, according to the company.

The touch-enabled slider phone is not only fashionable and slim at 11.8 millimetres thick, but also highly durable, thanks to the use of materials such as carbon fibre and tempered glass. So, say goodbye to scratch marks.

Striking a good balance of style and substance, the Secret comes with Neon Touch Navigation buttons and touch-screen function for multimedia features such as music, photos, games, documents and FM radio.

It is also equipped with a five-megapixel camera, which boasts

120-frame-per-second video recording and playback, and photo and video-editing features, including facial editing and the SmartLight feature that automatically adjusts a picture’s light settings.

For Internet surfing and e-mail access, LG has bundled in the Google package, which also enables the use of Google Maps and YouTube.

And for more entertainment, the phone comes with motion-sensor games, which allow users to play onboard games by tilting or shaking.

Other exciting capabilities are DivX-certified video playback, auto-rotating display and auto-luminance control. With auto-rotating display, images on the screen can be shifted to be viewed in any position while with auto-luminance control, screen lighting is automatically adjusted according to ambient brightness.

The Secret, which has

100 megabytes of internal memory and a Micro Secure Digital card slot that supports cards up to four gigabytes, will be made available in most parts of Asia by end of next month.
