LG Ultra-thin X300 Officially Launching

Tweet

Following to its January debut at CES 2010, the ultra-thin X300 from LG is now making an official move into the Asian, Middle Eastern and South American market. A lightweight mobile PC in the premium segment, as you probably know already, the sleek and stylish X300 has a 2.0GHz Intel Menlow (Atom Z550) processor under the hood, integrated 3G, up to 2GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD and runs Windows 7 Home Premium OS.

“Given how demanding and discerning consumers are nowadays, we were delighted to receive such acclaim from the public and media at the CES for our new mobile PC,” stated Dr. Skott Ahn, President and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “It’s a vindication of LG’s efforts to maintain the very highest standards in design without any sacrifices in high-tech or functionality, and ensure our consumers’ experiences with LG PCs just keep getting better.”

Seen as a competitor to the Vaio X and the MacBook Air (quite hard to beat the Core2Duo to be honest), other than the above, the LG X300 will be available with a 11.6-inch LCD screen, a spare two-cell battery to provide up to seven hours of use and the fan-less design you’ve heard us talking about.

Just 970 grams heavy and measuring only 17.5mm thick, the X300 also manges to hide a 1.3-megapixel webcam (with You-Cam viewer) and SRS TruSurround HD sound.

Although prices are to vary country-to-country, we managed to find out that in Korea, the thin LG X300 will go for 1,590,000 Won (or some $1,424 at today’s rate).
