Moving from a basic phone to a smartphone can be exciting. And, as
with any leap forward, there are many new things to discover and learn.
However, transitioning doesn’t mean that users have to be thrown into
unfamiliar settings and features or, alternatively, forego
functionality that they may want at a later date. Smartphones like the
compact Lucid™ 2 by LG, exclusively at Verizon Wireless, with a
long-lasting battery and 4.3-inch qHD display make it easy for first
time smartphone owners to enter the smartphone world, discover new
features and apps, and personalize their experience.
Turning on a smartphone for the first time and watching it come to
life is the beginning of a new experience. The Lucid 2 lets users choose
from different modes, Starter Mode or Standard Mode, when they take the
phone out of the box.
Starter Mode is a simplified and more intuitive experience ideal for
those who are new to smartphones. This option has five easy-to-learn
home screens, featuring pre-set widgets such as My Apps, My Contacts and
My Settings. Standard Mode is a general smartphone setting for those
who are familiar with the Android experience. Users can pick the mode
that best suits their needs, letting them get accustomed to the phone,
find the most common features, and uncover their favorites.
Apps are an integral part of the experience for both first-time and
experienced smartphone owners. The Lucid 2 features QuickMemo™, an app
that allows users to capture screenshots and use their finger to add
personalized commentary or drawings. Video Editor and Video Wiz apps
bring a mini editing studio into a user’s hand to edit and customize
video clips that can be quickly shared. And with Android 4.1, Jelly
Bean, customers can use features such as Google Now to see relevant
updates for traffic, weather, meetings and more.
With a smartphone, users can take advantage of a wide range of accessories.
The Lucid 2 is wireless charging capable with the purchase of a
wireless charging battery cover, allowing owners to easily charge their
phone by setting it on a wireless charging pad (sold separately).
Lucid 2 by LG will be available online at www.verizonwireless.com
for free with a new two-year customer agreement beginning on April 4
and will be in Verizon Wireless stores in the coming weeks.
