Thumbs Ready…AT&T Releases LG Xenon, Neon
March 30th, 2009 by Todd Haselton
AT&T is starting to make our thumbs sore just thinking about all of these messaging phones. Two new devices debuted today from LG, the higher-end Xenon and low-end Neon. LG Xenon Available April 8, the Xenon offers a 2.8-inch touch screen display and a full 4-line QWERTY slide-out keyboard. It looks similar to the OLED-packing Samsung Impression, but at $99 costs $100 less. This feature phone has all of the basics, including a 2-MP camera, microSD slot, GPS, and access to AT&T services like AT&T Music, XM Radio, and more. You’ll be able to pick one up in black, blue, and red. LG Neon
AT&T hasn’t announced a price, but the carrier anticipates that the Neon will be the lowest cost touch screen device in the U.S. This device has a 4-line QWERTY keyboard like the Xenon, but it has a more playful, tween-friendly design. LG didn’t skimp on the features, though; you can snap 2-MP photos and play music stored on a microSD card. It’s also loaded with AT&T MEdia Net support and Mobile Email (Yahoo, AOL, AIM Windows Live, AT&T Yahoo, and Bell South are supported). The Neon will be available in the coming weeks.

Today i find a people evaluate the LG Xenon vs AT&T Quickfire like this.He said that “From the shape we can see that the LG Xenon is more smooth,and the AT&T Quickfire has more edges and corners.Personally,i prefer the AT&T Quickfire to the LG Xenon,beacause i think there are textures of the AT&T Quickfire,but also i like the colours of AT&T Quickfire,especially the silver color.While the LG Xenon’s colour is more fashion,customers who like fashion can choose the LG Xenon. In features,both of the two at&t cell phones are all almost same.They are all tochscreen mobiles and all sports a full QWERTY keyboard.Besides they also support the same Bluetoot,GSM/GPRS/Edge/HSDPA,as well as offer WiFi connectivity, a 2.8-inch display(the resolution may not same),camera.But the LG Xenon will come with a 3-megapixel camera,the AT&T Quickfire will feature a 1.3-megapixe……”
