LG Viewty (KU990) Video

By Joseph Hanlon on 04/01/2008

More LG reviews , RRP: AU$899.00

The good:

  • Vibrating touchscreen
  • HSDPA data speeds and great browser
  • Plethora of camera features and settings

The bad:

  • Disappointing camera performance
  • Restrictive video playback
  • No 3.5mm headphone input

The bottomline:

With auto-focus, image stabilisation and settings galore the 5-megapixel camera should take better, sharper photos. As a phone and a mobile Web browser the Viewty is a strong performer.

      While the 6210 is solidly built and features fast performance, the lack of a lifetime subscription to turn-by-turn navigation robs the Navigator of what should make it unique in the market.

      There's nothing technically wrong with RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition but if you want to Ferrari-fie your phone there are cheaper and better ways of doing it. For free.

      It's hard to knock a phone that has all the current popular technologies, but it would have still been great for Nokia to consider new technologies for this latest N-Series range, particularly a media sharing networking protocol.

      Take out the Next G reception and you end up with a low quality handset at a mid-range price point. Still, it's great to see another blue tick phone for our friends in the bush to consider.

      While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smartphone with class leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.
