The X110 Netbook, a smaller, core computing function-oriented subnotebook, is a totally new telecommunication-oriented device, featuring trendy design as well as embedded 3G HSPA connectivity.

Mr. Simon Lee, LG General Manager in Saudi Arabia, said:
"LG is pursuing the ideal blend of smart technology and stylish design in order to become a global digital leader. This innovative X110 is the result of our efforts to realize this vision. The 3G embedded and stylish X110 will provide customers with a totally new concept in mobile telecommunications, and that is what we have been promising them here in the Kingdom."


Evolved telecommunication:



3G HSPA is embedded in the X110, which means users don't need to install additional devices to connect to the internet. Also, the X110 is equipped with WLAN 802.11 b/g and 10/100 Ethernet for stable and fast connections. Users can therefore communicate with anyone, at any time, in any place.

Chic design:



The X110 differentiates its design from previous Netbooks. While competitors have been keeping the same style for years, the X110 distinguishes itself with its chic and trendy features. Its modern rounded shape goes well with its thin and light design. Also, consumers can choose among various color choices for both the inside and outside of the unit, including white, silver and pink.

High performance:



X110 guarantees larger storage capacity than its competitors. The X110 is equipped with an 120GB - 160GB Hard Disk Drive. This five-fold improvement on data storage allows users to enjoy advanced productivity.

Enhanced convenience:



Due to its mobility and low cost, existing Netbook users have had to endure inconveniences such as poor visual quality and awkward keyboard. In contrast, the X110's WSVGA 10-inch widescreen offers better viewing environment without horizontal scrolling. Also, an 82-key full-size keyboard makes typing convenient and more accurate.

"IFA is the world's leading trade show for the general public and the Consumer Electronics industry's number one venue for doing business. Last year, IFA boasted more than a thousand exhibitors and attracted more than 220,000 visitors," said Mr. H C Lee - Senior Manager IT Products, "LG considers Saudi Arabia as one of its most important markets. That is why we bring our latest products first to the Kingdom. I believe that our customers here in the Kingdom deserve to receive our best services and products, and we are always promising them the best."
