Are you looking for a new mobile phone? If so why not check out the LG Viewty today. Or take a look at any of our other mobile phone deals
From some angles, the LG Viewty looks more like a camera with a mobile phone attached than it does a mobile phone with a camera attached; and while the distinction may really be minimal, it accentuates the manner in which the LG Viewty differentiates itself from other competition. As it is the LG answer to its competitors new and improved camera-phones, it does seem somewhat fitting that it should be the camera aspect that takes centre stage.
Features of the LG Viewty
Firstly, and unsurprisingly, there is the camera. At 5 megapixels of complete quality, it equals the best on the market in terms of sheer raw ability to photograph images and video with stunning definition. On top of that however, LG has packed into this latest treat a flash, which can be used to great advantage at times of bad lighting, against anything within 2.5 metres. To further combat bad lighting, the auto focus lamp combined with the existing auto focus system ensures that the image captured is sharp, clear and completely in focus.
In terms of video capture, the LG Viewty films jaw dropping quality video definition at high frame rates. Complementing both the video and image capture features is the storage capability with microSD memory cards that offer a range of speeds and sizes for any preference, as well as 90 MB of internal storage.
By retaining one of the best features of its predecessor, the LG Prada, Viewty has a full fledged touchscreen that not only adds to its feel, but is both easy and pleasant to use. At a time when most other mobile phones utilise partial touchscreens only for the bare minimum of functions, the LG Viewty's entire screen is a touchscreen. For the uninitiated, it may require some getting used to, however the range of options as well as the soft vibration that indicates a 'clicked' button aids the acclimatisation process.
Of course as could be expected, the LG Viewty also includes music playback, 3G capabilities with HSDPA technology for even faster data downloads, as well as the (now standard) Bluetooth and USB connection options.
Camera Enthusiasts Choice
For anyone that loves to use their mobile phone to capture that one special moment, either in video or image, the LG Viewty offers the ability to do so to what can only be called perfection. Other phones come close, but never really have any combined both video and image capabilities into a single, great looking, package that embodies its function quite stylishly.
Even for those who don't generally use cameras so much, owning the LG Viewty practically would make them want to use the camera.
By combining functions seamlessly, it is hard to tell where the camera ends and the mobile phone begins, however that is not a bad thing with such great potential as enjoyed by the LG Viewty. Indeed, it would be surprising if any new mobile phone buyer did not check out the mobile phone deals that include an LG Viewty or allowed for it to be purchased, purely by merit of the attraction that it offers.
