The device is similar to the LG Voyager in that it features a touchscreen display in a widescreen aspect ratio with a QWERTY keyboard for typing out messages and emails, and an identical user interface, but does not feature support for V CAST Mobile TV unlike the Voyager.

The horizontal slide form factor device also features a 2 megapixel CMOS camera with video recorder, microSD expansion slot, Bluetooth with stereo audio support, and HTML browser.

The Glyde is projected to launch at the end of April at the same pricepoint as the Voyager.
