CHARACTERS
For Fast, Go QWERTY
s it bad that giggle when people try to text on a touchscreen?
Touchscreens are cool and make browsing easy, but when ’ve
got something to say, a physical QWERTY really is the quickest
way to get the word out.
Smooth Navi ation
Like said, for texting love the QWERTY, but for everything
else the touchscreen is the way to go. Spacious, sensitive,
and fun—everything is just a few taps away.
Friend Essentials
have hundreds of friends, but if can’t get to them quickly,
it’s as bad as having no friends at all. The Beacon zaps that
problem with a quick & efficient Contacts system.
He Said, She Said
’m always up on the latest gossip, because it’s all right here
in front of me with this cool, bubble-threaded messaging
that keeps conversations together and in order.
Life is a Photo Op
For my friends, for my fashion, for myself—there are a million
reasons to take pictures, and ’m ready for all of them.

Some people ask, am I serious about
textin ? Oh yeah, you could say that.
’m as serious about texting as am
about fashion and gossip—which
is perfect because LG Beacon has it
all. With the touchscreen, quick and easy
contacts, and 4-line keyboard with sassy
red accents, my messaging is on fire
while ’m looking smokin’ hot.
Textin my irls, talkin to my bf,
listenin to music, or takin self-portraits
that highlight my trend-setting style, LG
Beacon has a ton of great ways for me to
navigate around my digital life, or connect
with my inner diva. Really, it’s more than
a phone, it’s my perfect accessory.
