LG Arena KM900 Is the Most Unabashed iPhone Look-A-Like Yet

By Mark Wilson on February 5, 2009 at 6:40 AM

I don’t harbour a fanboy grudge with any company borrowing the iPhone’s UI. Large buttons that are easy to press, a black background for colours that pop—these are good ideas for every touchscreen phone.


The LG Arena KM900, slated for a Europe release this March, is about as close as you can get to the iPhone without releasing a straight-up clone. Actually, scratch that. The KM900 is just as convincing as most iPhone clones out there. Even the icons, like those for music, calling, the calendar, calculator and settings are frighteningly close to Apple design.

But it’s not an Apple design because it’s made by LG. And that will make many of you happy and many of you sad. [All About Phones via Unwired Review]
