LG Electronics (LG), a global leader and technology innovator in mobile communications, recently announced the launch of its flagship LG Widebook T380. This 13.3-inch slim and light notebook packs Intel’s ultra low voltage (ULV) processor to improve mobility and boost battery life.

The longer battery life doesn’t come at the expense of speed, though, as the Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 ULV 1.3GHz processor, paired with up to 4GB DDR2 memory, doubles the performance of a netbook fitted with an Atom CPU while consuming 60% less power than a normal CPU. A standard 8-cell battery allows consumers to use it for up to 10.5 hours between charges; enough for a long flight or an entire day of working on the road. The LG T380 is a road warrior’s dream, as the slim design measures only 25mm thick and tips the scales at a scant 1.89kg.

“An emerging trend in the notebook market is for consumers to look towards products with long-lasting batteries blended with desktop performance,” said Mr H.S Paik, President of LG Electronics Gulf FZE. “We are intently focusing on enhancing mobility and connectivity while ensuring productivity. In light of this, we believe that the LG T380 is at the forefront of notebook design and engineering, and helps LG cement its position as a leader in the mobile computing industry.”
