The Korean manufacturer LG has officially presented the LG Arena today. On the multimedia mobile phone is celebrating the 3D user interface S-Class premiered. The S stands for "Superior" and will also prevent any future premium models from LG decorate. The first is the arena should proceed  in the sale in the middle of March, the price only when LG will announce  launch.

The arena is filled with technology. WLAN, HSDPA, GPS and a 5-megapixel camera, with which we also record VGA videos may have been in a 12-millimeter thin enclosure pressed. The battery is displayed with its capacity of 1000 mAh. The internal memory of 8 gigabytes with microSD cards with a further 32 gigabytes expanded. FM transmitter and 3.5-millimeter jack for standard headphones round out the equipment from. The heart of the mobile phone is the touchscreen, with a diagonal of 3 inches while not overly large is unusual, but super-sharp 800x480 pixel dissolves. It is like the iPhone capacitive.

Finger-friendly 3D-touch menus allow for easy search in contacts and multimedia content. Reel scrolling, selection on rotating surfaces, assigns the menus like on a movie role. It will be for each option offered self symbols. The user needs only a finger on the 3D-stress wheels to comfortably through all the menus to browse. Core of S-Class, however, is a cube with four customizable startup screen, the quick access to all features by turning the cube with a simple finger movement allows. Even the so-called Elastic Lists are designed for quick access. Once a list entry, for example in the contacts, will be affected, he zooms into the foreground and displays additional information and editing options.

Another novelty of S-Class is the Floating Image Gallery: When the phone is held upright, it displays the images in straight rows. Turn it, slip the photos from the screen to a larger format then re-appear. Go one step further and the alarm clock and radio tuner in the phone - here you can use the fact the pointer finger of the clock and adjust the sliders to rotate. With S-Class delivers on the LG Arena is a circular idea. Despite all the enthusiasm remains a stigma: the operating system is not expandable.
