LG officially took the wraps off the LG G Flex, a smartphone curved to follow the contour of the face, the first device to offer such a design in the smartphone market at an event in Delhi. LG G Flex will be available in India by February 2014.

LG G Flex comes with 6-inch HD (720p) curved P-OLED display, which is surprisingly flexible. Under the hood runs Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor clocked at 2.26GHz and a 13-megapixel camera housed above the two rear control buttons, which is now LG’s thing.

The device has a 3,500mAh battery and connectivity options in the smartphone include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS/AGPS, NFC and 3G HSPA+ network support.We can expect LTE band 40 too in Indian version at the time of official launch.

The vertically curved design of the LG G Flex reduces the distance between one’s mouth to the microphone when the device is held against the ear, as traditional telephone handsets used to.

The LG G Flex employs a curvature arc that is optimized for the average face, to deliver improved voice and sound quality. The curved form increases the sound level by 3dB compared to typical flat smartphones.

The curved design also offers a more reassuring grip and fits more comfortably in one’s back pocket. What’s more, in landscape mode, the display offers an IMAX-like experience, with the result being the most comfortable viewing angle for watching videos or playing games.

The LG G Flex also includes an array of new UX features :

-QTheater gives users quick access to photos, videos and YouTube right from the lock screen. By touching the screen and dragging outward along the curved surface with both fingers, the apps appear with the effect of theater curtains being drawn.
Dual Window divides the wide 6-inch screen into two separate windows for more effective multitasking.
Swing Lockscreen alters the image on the lockscreen depending on how the G Flex is held.
Face Detection Indicator displays the LED on the Rear Key in green to confirm status of face detection and focus.
Camera Timer flashes the Rear Key LED to indicate that the countdown has begun.
Urgent Call Alert flashes the LED on the Rear Key in red when several consecutive calls from the same person go unanswered.
