LG Viewty KU990 Silver deals

Intro

In the form of the KU990 Viewty Silver LG has created one of the most technologically advanced cameras ever found on a mobile phone camera, with a cool silver shell adding to the handset’s appeal.

The LG KU990 Viewty Silver is among the most advanced cameraphones ever created, combining a professional quality camera, advanced communication functions and a crisp silver exterior.

Operated by a touchscreen, the handset incorporates a five megapixel camera with a Schneider-Kreuznach certified lens, Xenon Flash, manual focus function, image stabiliser and built-in SmartLight and ISO 800 technology – features more typical of a dedicated digital camera.

Images captured can then be manipulated and improved via supplied editing software, with owners even able to apply their handwriting onto photos by writing directly onto the touchscreen with the stylus.

Similarly high-end are the video recording features with users able to watch DVD-like content which has been recorded at 120 frames per second – the highest frame speed ever for a handset camera. Uploading these to YouTube directly from the handset is also possible.

Web browsing is possible with the Google-friendly phone, which comes supplied with a package from the ever-ubiquitous search engine, with further entertainment on the move provided by an FM radio.

This is an easy to use phone. The camera is great for quick use when you're on the go and you need to take a picture of something. I had no problems with mine i love it, and it is one of the prettiest phones on the market.

This is a great phone, it looks really really cool and is totally reliable... my only real gripe is that there's no TV out function!

I agree that this phone could be packed with more features - I can't work out how to send animations in SMS messages with mine, something I have always been able to do with my Sony Ericsson. However, for an affordable touchscreen phone - you can't go wrong!

This is a nice looking phone and a great budget touchscreen option. However, the low price does mean it's a bit low on features - I could do with voice dialling, and SatNav!

I got my Viewty for free with my new contract - bargain of the century! There are a few little quirks that you will definitely get used to, but for the price it's a great little phone.
