Another Chocolate Mobile Phone this Year – the LG BL20.
Posted on 21 October 2009 by noor
LG BL20 will be the second chocolate phone for the year made by Korean phone makers, after the BL40, which gets released at about the same time.
An Affordable Fashion Phone
The trendy, sleek and sexy mobile may be the new attraction for many fashion lovers. The LG BL20 Chocolate is a fully featured mobile phone, using the ARM9 processor, which makes it quite powerful.
The phone will be available in black/cherry red or black/silver two-tone color scheme, which will be just great to look at on a slider form body, together with imbedded touch-sensitive keys everywhere, even on the sides.
Slim and Stylish
The slim phone is about 106.9 x 50.8 x 12.3 mm with a light 115g that makes it convenient to carry in the pocket. Moreover, the expected low price of €269 may improve its chances to become a hit when it gets to the European markets in time for the Holidays.
BL40, which can be treated as a sports style upgrade brother of the BL20 Chocolate, will also be released at the same time. But instead of having the big 4” screen, the BL20 is more simple and down-to-earth with more modest features that can accommodate more people that cannot afford to pay high price.
The 2.4” non-touch screen LCD screen having QVGA resolution and 256k color depth enables it to remain in the low to middle price spectrum.
A Camera Phone
The LG BL20’s imaging specifications are so great that it makes the camera seem expensive. It has a 5-megapixel camera that uses the Schneider-Kreuznach lens, which is used in LG’s top class mobile phones.
It has auto focus and LED flash together with an average video recording capability of 15 frames per second. You can also use it as a scanner by means of the bundled TextScan application that allows you to store and send captured text, handwritten notes and drawings as attachments to an email or MMS.

I’ve had my Chocolate Touch since it came out. I used to have a Razr. I’ve been searching around at the filesystem on Bitpim and just commenced putting flash wallpapers on it. I’ve also checked to see how EnV Touch themes appear on it. I’d like to start attempting to make themes and wallpapers in Adobe Flash CS4. But I just commenced, so it’ll most likely be awhile before I get anything. Tongue
Received an Env Touch and I was trying to see about firmware upgrades. Running XP and phone does not wish to sync with computer. Bought a reminiscence card and started to tug and drop. Firmware is ver 5. No issues other than the sync problem. Thought of bitpim. Not a difficulty since drag and drop does the job. Fairly sure you possibly can drag and drop you wouldn’t use bitpim for.
