At just 11.9 mm thin, the phone happens to be quite pocketable as well. The GM 730 boasts of a 65k, 3.0-inch display and comes with 8GB of memory, expandable with add-on microSD cards. It also comes with Networking on the Map Service, a navigation-based social networking service, which enables users to see where their friends are while communicating in real time. Other standard features include seamless connectivity with Bluetooth, WiFi and AGPS. The device is 3G ready as well.
Along with the LG GM 730, LG will also announce the launch of its very own Application Store, which expands the capability of its smartphones. Currently, there are 1400+ apps available out of which more than 100 are available free of charge to LG handset users. The quick key on LG Smart Home Screen provides easy one touch access to LG Application Store.
The GM 730 will go on sale starting later this month and will be priced at around the Rs. 25,000 mark, making it a decent player in the highly competitive smartphones segment.
