LG GM730

The LG GM730 is the other handset that LG are trying to get due attention on. The S class UI on top of the Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional OS is one of its key features.

It's really nice of LG to have made the effort to mask as much of the Windows interface as possible. There are five homescreens, each responsible for controlling a different part of the UI - contacts, image gallery, etc. The native start menu is still present but LG promise to have that covered too before the release.

We just hope the UI speed will meanwhile be also fixed as the S class UI didn't perform nearly as fast as on the KM900 Arena. Having in mind however that the GM730 is said to have a dedicated graphics accelerator we don't see a reason why that shouln't change.

The LG GM730 looks pretty nice in reality and handles very well. The 3" touchscreen device fits pretty well in most hands and the nicely thumbable interface provide for pretty decent single-handed use.
