LG has formally announced the truly nutty BL40 which we saw leaked on a promotional video earlier this month. Interestingly, the only detail we have is that the remarkable 4in 21:9 aspect ratio 800 x 345 pixel screen is indeed in line with the earlier scoop. LG is also simply calling the handset the 'LG Chocolate' which means a complete reboot of the series - fine choice.
So with this in mind let's recap what LG can't say yet: the BL40 will also have HSDPA, aGPS (meaning WiFi as well), a 5MP camera with flash (unknown kind) and capactive touchscreen with multi-touch gesture control. What remains a mystery are the overall size and weight, battery life as a result of powering that monster display and OS.
