LG announces QuickWindow case for the LG G2, comes in seven colors

Even though the LG G2 smartphone has yet to be unveiled, accessories for it are already official. The company's QuickWindow case for the LG G2 is a premium accessory meant to protect the device from both sides without limiting its functionality. Featuring an opening on its flip cover, it allows the user to view information displayed on the handset's screen without having to lift the cover itself. This includes time and weather info, music currently playing, incoming calls and messages, and more. The so-called QuickWindow UX interface which provides all this information can be toggled with a swipe of a finger.

The QuickWindow case for the LG G2 will be launched alongside the smartphone itself. Black, white, pink, purple, blue, mint, and yellow are all on the list of colors it will be available in. Pricing is to be announced at a later time.

LG EXPANDS ACCESSORY OFFERINGS WITH PREMIUM SMARTPHONE CASE

Convenient QuickWindow Case for LG G2 Available in Seven Colors

SEOUL, July 30, 2013 — LG Electronics (LG) will be introducing a line of premium cases for its upcoming flagship device, LG G2, to be available at the same time as the smartphone. The aesthetically beautiful case, QuickWindow, is the newest addition to LG’s growing premium smartphone accessory lineup, which includes cases, headsets and portable chargers.

An opening or “window” on the cover of QuickWindow allows users to glance at various information displays without having to open the cover flap. With only a light swipe of a finger, the QuickWindow UX will appear in the window which users can view while on the go. Information that can be viewed through the QuickWindow cover include a clock, weather report, alarm, music player, incoming phone call details and incoming text messages.

“LG’s newest premium accessory delivers practical and stylish options while protecting the smartphone, which for many consumers is a significant investment,” said Dr. Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “Our smartphone designers have in mind the type of case they’d like to see on their designs. So it made a lot of sense for LG designers to share with our customers their vision of the perfect accessory.”

The QuickWindow case for the LG G2 will be available in seven different colors, including black, white, pink, purple, blue, mint and yellow. The cases will be available simultaneously with the launch of the LG G2.

I don't plan on buying this phone or a cover for it, but find myself relieved there is already a dark or black cover. Good grief anyone actually work with their hands. Is everyone in an office now a days?

Uh LG used to be so innovative and creative. What happens to making head-turning phones like the Chocolate and EnV? Now they're just banking off galaxy wannabe phones.

I do like how LG went and took the idea further though, like alarm clock fonts, or a watch, or a mini-music player etc. As far as I know, Samsung only had one static viewable clock. It looks like you'll be able to see more and handle more all without lifting the cover as well as customization.

I also heard that the g2 stole other S4 innovations like the ability to call and text, infuriates me to no end!! In all seriousness, The hate is ridiculous at this point. We don't know the official specs, features, or really much yet. We do know the volume rocker/power button is on the back, very thin bezel, and has a cool case. I'm excited about this phone.

LG has been copying SS features since the G Pro. Look for LG's "Wise Screen" vs Samsung's "Smart Stay" exact same thing.

Hello samsung fan boys. You always think every company copied samsung. Remember, such quick window case was started from LG. look up optimus LTE2 case, in US spectrum 2.
