LG Accuses Motorola of Copying its Phone

This is interesting! LG is accusing Motorola of copying one of its phones, the LG KV2300 in order to create the Motorola KRZR K1m. The KV2300 started shipping in Korea in August while the KRZR K1m will be available later this month. Lee Hyoung-kun, LG spokesman, said that LG KV2300 is a flat, rectangular flip phone with high-gloss black finish, and the KRZR K1m is also a flat, rectangular flip phone with high-gloss black finish. Both are equipped with 1.3MP digicam and touch control keys in their fronts with strikingly similar arrangements. In addition, their dimensions are almost the same. However, LG seems happy that a company like Motorola decided to follow their design. And the LG spokesman added that “we don’t think Motorola intentionally imitated the look of the KV2300. But we are very flattered that a company of such caliber followed our design policy.”
