LG Electronics has added a new member to its GM series with the unveiling of the LG GM200 Candybar Mobile Phone. The new device is the third to be included in the lineup lately, following the LG GM730, which came featuring Microsoft’s Windows Mobile operating system, and the GM310, which brought a sliding form factor.

The newly unveiled LG GM200 comes as a simple candybar mobile phone that packs Dolby Mobile technology, along with stereo speakers. The handsets also sports a nice range of multimedia features, such as music and video players, as well as a built-in FM antenna. In addition, it seems that the phone maker also added a background noise sensor, which is meant to automatically adjust the volume when it is necessary.

The LG GM200 candybar also features

• GSM/GPRS connectivity
• Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP
• 30MB of internal memory coupled with a microSD memory card slot to offer additional storage space for those who need it.

The handset measures 106 x 48 x 14.7 mm and looks pretty nice, the same as most of LG’s candybar mobile phones.

The LG GM200 is expected to become available in May
