EE BRINGS THE INNOVATIVE LG G FLEX CURVED SMARTPHONE TO THE UK
LG G Flex handset to go on display in select EE stores from 20th December, ahead of official launch in February 2014
17th December, 2013 – EE and LG Mobile have announced that British consumers will soon be able to try out one of the most hotly-anticipated smartphones of 2013, when the LG G Flex goes on display exclusively in select EE stores from 20th December. The in-store showcase will allow UK consumers to experience the revolutionary handset prior to its European launch early next year.
The LG G Flex uses ground-breaking technology to deliver an innovative curved design. The handset is also the first to feature LG’s self-healing technology. The elastic coating back absorbs minor scratches and nicks and can recover its original appearance in under a minute, helping it to cope with daily wear-and-tear and keep the phone looking newer for longer.
EE is offering technology fans the opportunity to get hands-on with the innovative handset over the Christmas period in 10 stores across the UK. Consumers will be able to experience the smooth curvature of the device, as well as the innovative user experience (UX) features that make the LG G Flex one of the most ground-breaking devices of 2013. The smartphone will be displayed from the 20th December in the following EE stores:
London – Westfield Shopping Centre, Stratford E20 1EH
London – Westfield Shopping Centre, White City W12 7GG
London – 155/157 Oxford Street, W1D 2JH
Kent - Bluewater Shopping Centre, DA9 9ST
Nottingham - 16 Clumber Street, NG1 3GA
Manchester – The Trafford Centre, M17 8AP
Brighton – 209-210 Western Road, BN1 2BA
Cambridge – 40-41 Lions Yard, CB2 3NA
Merry Hill – The Merryhill Centre, DY5 1QX
Sheffield – Meadowhall Centre, S9 1EN
Sharon Meadows, Director of Devices, EE: “LG is renowned for its technical innovation so we’re pleased to be working with them to bring the G Flex to UK consumers. The G Flex is perfectly optimised to take advantage of our unique double-speed 4G network and will provide users with an immersive viewing experience so they can make the most out of watching video on the go.”
“There’s been so much excitement about the LG G Flex since we announced it in October, so we’re thrilled to be working with 4G pioneers EE, to bring it to UK consumers,” said Andy Coughlin, UK head of Mobile for LG. “This really is an innovative handset, which shows how LG is once again leading the way in mobile phone design and technology. Looking ahead, the LG G Flex also points the way for some of the most exciting developments in technology over the next few years, as phones become increasingly adapted to their users.”
The LG G Flex is curved vertically mirroring the curves of the human face and reducing the distance between a user’s mouth and the microphone. The curvature also offers a more reassuring grip and fits more comfortably in a pocket. In landscape mode, the display offers an immersive experience utilising the most comfortable viewing angle for watching videos or playing games.
In order to make the most of the curvature of the phone, LG has designed a number of original UX features. QTheater provides quick access to media right from the lock screen. Swing Lockscreen alters the image displayed when the phone is locked according to how the LG G Flex is held.
The LG G Flex will be available from EE in February 2014. Full pricing will be announced closer to launch.
