LG Arena "Titan Black" to be T-Mobile UK exclusive
T-Mobile UK has announced that it will be exclusively carrying the "titan black" version of the LG Arena, leaving other carriers to make do with the standard silver handset. The touchscreen feature-phone has a 5-megapixel camera, Dolby Mobile 2.0 audio and 8GB of onboard storage, together with an integrated FM transmitter.
Other specs include access to the carriers' Mobile Jukebox audio download service and access to YouTube. Finally there's 3G HSDPA supporting up to 7.2Mbps, WiFi, A-GPS and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
The LG Arena "titan black" will be available from T-Mobile UK this month. Prices have not been announced, but we'd imagine you'll probably be able to get it free with a high enough monthly contract.
