O2 LG Arena Joins the Orange & T-Mobile LG Arena Family

The latest touch screen phone from LG has now been made available on the O2 network, the LG Arena is similar but smaller than the previous LG Renoir model but more importantly features the manufacturers new 3D user interface.

The O2 LG Arena follows onn from the release of this sleek new phone on both Orange and T-Mobile networks, this third launch means there are now more tariffs than ever before to choose from when trying to match your usage requirements to the inclusive minutes nd text on offer.

O2 packages start from just £15 per month and already the LG Arena is being ofefred free on this tariff, to further entice consumers there are a range of free gifts available with the new O2 LG Arena including a free Playstation 3, Nintendo Wii, 32" LCD HD Ready TV and even the latest edition of GHD hair straighteners!

The most important thing to remember when buying any new phone on a contract such as O2 is to try and match the number of inclusive free text messages and monthly minutes as closely as possible to your own usage, this way you should keep your costs to a minimum by not usingmore than the monthly allowance and not pay for the extra usage.

The LG Arena finds competition from a couple of other recently launched touch screen phones, namely the Samsung Pixon which features a more advanced camera and from the same manufacturer the LG Renoir although this again features more megapixels to its camera but does weigh in heavier.

The uniqueness of the LG Arena is in its new user interface, you can literally spin a 3D cube on the screen to navigate through the menu system, using your finger to brush either up and down or left and right the cube menu spins on the screen until you find what you are looking for.

It feels far more interactive than the standard menu systems of the Samsung Pixon and LG Renoir where you simply navigate through the menu layers.
