The new LG MUZIQ (LX570) mobile phone will now be a OneTouch configurable solution from Synaptics ( News - Alert), Inc., according to news reports. Synaptics is a leader in capacitive sensing interface solutions for mobile computing, communications, and entertainment devices.
The LG MUZIQ (LX570) phone is currently available in the United States with Sprint ( News - Alert).
With this announcement, Synaptics will support LG’s aim of delivering music-on- demand with its slick and intuitive interface controls. Says RK Parthasarathy, product line director at Synaptics, “As multimedia content on mobile phones increases, Synaptics’ OneTouch offering helps customers design intuitive and superior capacitive interfaces that make their products fun and easy to use. OneTouch is a complete end-to-end solution engineered specifically to enable OEMs to rapidly implement Synaptics’ dependable and flexible technology, bringing products to market quicker.”
In the LG MUZIQ clamshell mobile phone, five of the music buttons, which are on the front of the phone, are brought to life Synaptics’ OneTouch capacitive technology. When these external touch controls are illuminated with red LEDs, managing music functions on the phone becomes that much easier for the user. The LG MUZIQ music phone also sports other features like Bluetooth  connectivity, an external microSD memory card slot, media player and FM radio. When the multimedia button functions from Synaptics are combined with the LG MUZIQ phone’s multitasking capability users will have the power to listen to music while they are running other applications.
With all the handset manufacturers looking to introduce newer and better music phones, LG engineering team is looking to the precise and predictable Synaptics interface to give it an edge over its competitors.
