LG has unveiled details about its new LG BL40 Chocolate, an extremely thin and attractive touchscreen device.
This newest addition to LG's "Black Label" Chocolate family features a 4.0-inch touchscreen display with 800 x 345 pixel resolution for cinematic quality images. The display is covered by stylish, curved tempered glass. The wide 21:9 aspect ratio lets users more easily browse the web, and a dual-content interface lets users display different pieces of content simultaneously. In pictures the hardware looks extremely minimalistic, without so much as a visible button aside from the touchscreen display and what appears to be a volume rocker and dedicated camera key. The pictures also detail a 5.0 megapixel camera, although that detail was not confirmed by LG's press release.
The LG Chocolate BL40 will be available in the third quarter of 2009
