LG Electronics Inc. said Wednesday it plans to release the Optimus L9

model globally starting next month in countries across Asia, Europe and North America.

The Optimus L9, which is the fourth model in the Optimus-L lineup, supports smarter user experience features such as the “Q Translator,” which translates texts into 64 languages, according to LG.

To use the feature, users can scan texts with the embedded camera, which will then be translated through dictionaries and online translation engines.

The 9.1 millimeter-thin model carries a 4.7-inch ISP display and runs on a dual-core processor.

The Optimus L9 is the latest model in the Optimus L series, which is noted for its rectangular design and metal facade. The series hit the European market in April and is now available in 40 countries. (Yonhap News)
