Compare KU990 Viewty Deals

The LG-KU990 Viewty is a highly versatile phone with excellent camera functionality among its many features. The 5 megapixel camera has Xenon flash, a built-in image stabiliser, editing software, red-eye reduction and displays the results on a high-resolution 3-inch LCD touchscreen. SmartLight technology means you can create bright pictures both indoors and even at night and it records video at up to 120 frames per second – among the highest frame speed available for a phone camera.

A circle around the camera lens is actually a Jog Dial: used to (digitally) zoom in and out in camera mode and to focus the camera in manual focus mode. It doubles as a volume control when you are talking on the phone and a scroll wheel to scroll through music tracks.

Dialling and messaging is straightforward via a numeric or alphabetic keypad that works identically to a standard mobile phone keypad minus the mechanical keys, and is aided by the vibrating feedback feature. Web interaction is fast thanks to HSDPA technology, working with the KU990’s proprietary browser.

Internal memory is a considerable 100 MB, with a microSD memory card slot extendable up to 2 GB. Other features include calendar, a fun 3D shoot 'em up game, speakerphone mode and a music player supporting all the popular formats.

Battery life is rated at 355 minutes’ GSM talk time (233 for 3G); 434 hours for GSM standby time; 454 hours using 3G.

5 Megapixel

Camera Phones are slowly replacing the tranditional Digital Camera. Grainy low-quality images from phones are a thing of the past. Its now easier than ever to take good quality photos and make a telephone call from a single device.

Most of the latest mobiles come packed with features to ensure you get the best possible picture including Zenon flash allowing photos to be taken in a low light such as Nightclubs or Pubs. However because of the size of mobile phones they are never going to be able to squash all the technology that is available in a traditional Digital Camera. For the occasional picture they are the ideal solution.

Take a look through our selection of 5 Mega Pixel and 8 Mega Pixel camera phones which are all worth reviewing before making a choice! Selected contracts also come with incentives such as Cash Backs, Console Games, GPS and others.
