The BL40, branded as the New Chocolate, is a mobile phone from the South Korean electronics company LG. It is designed to resemble the original LG Chocolate. It was introduced on 3 August 2009[1] showcasing a distinctive design, incorporating a 4-inch display that pioneers a wide aspect ratio of 21:9, a first in the history of mobile phones. It also presents the renowned S-Class 3D user interface, which was initially introduced on the LG Arena.[2]
It is tri-band with HSDPA support. Its camera is a 5-megapixel f/2.8 with a Schneider Kreuznach Tessar lens, (as seen previously on LG Renoir, LG Viewty and others). It has 335 MB internal storage but has MicroSD expandable storage for up to 32 GB extra. There's also Wi-Fi, an accelerometer, and an FM transmitter.[3]
