LG GC900 Viewty Smart gets coddled, previewed
After being officially unveiled (twice) for the European market last month, LG's GC900 Viewty Smart has finally arrived into the loving hands of those at GSMArena. The unit you see above is actually a pre-production unit, but it was baked enough to warrant a full-scale preview until review units start to ship. One of the biggest reveals was this line: "It's not a smartphone or anything, no matter how much we would have liked that; instead, it's a regular full touch feature phone, but one with a really polished UI and top-notch imaging capabilities." Critics spent a good bit of time checking out the still-novel 8MP camera, and while they were generally pleased with image quality and color, they weren't so stoked about the phone's ability to capture video. Overall though, they couldn't help but gush about the "gorgeous display" and "best-of-class user interface," which definitely leaves us even hungrier to wrap our own digits around a finalized unit.
LG's GC900 Viewty II gets Smart, gets official
Put away your smudgycams and break out your wallets, LG's Viewty II has been given the full studio photo treatment as part of an unveiling at LG's official blog. Dubbed the Smart, the GC900 is just 12.4 mm thick (under a half-inch), packing a 3-inch touchscreen on its face and of course that 8 megapixel camera on the back, confirmed to be able to capture video at 720 x 480 and geotag photos using the integrated A-GPS receiver. WLAN and HSDPA are also confirmed, but that's about all the info LG is setting in stone at the moment -- not that we didn't already know everything about it. Update: Oops! Looks like LG pulled the information -- good thing you looked here first.[Via Phone Arena]
LG's GC900 Viewty II subjected to smudgycam treatment?
We caught wind of the supposed LG Viewty II last week at CeBIT, though weren't graced with photos til today -- a couple pics actually surfaced in comments, but lacked the xenon flash mentioned in the specs. PhoneArena has thrown a couple pics up of this 8 megapixel set and we're liking what we see: large display, uncluttered layout, and what appears to be a xenon flash. We've already seen the specs so now it's a waiting game as we get set for this to potentially waft our way -- provided it's loaded with bands we can use.
