LG Launches Not-So-Mysterious Mystique

Apr 22 2010, 9:00am CDT | by Mark Raby

The LG Mystique will go on sale tomorrow, but there's not much to say for its namesake. It's a rather normally-specced entry-level handset.

The Mystique has a full Qwerty keyboard, 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and video recording capabilities. There's also a microSD slot but only minimal onboard memory. Service is provided exclusively through US Cellular.

The phone takes advantage of US Cellular's "easyedge" technology that streamlines applications and services like local weather, news, and e-mail.

In addition to the Qwerty pad, there are hotkeys on the front of the phone. It is a flip phone instead of the traditional Qwerty favorite slider design.

The Mystique will be available tomorrow at a subsidized contract price of around $80, after a $50 mail-in rebate.
