Time for another check in with our fellow bloggers to find out what they’ve been saying about their Viewtys.
(We might have to stop doing these soon – we don’t want all the praise going to our heads and making us smug!)
Simon at Zath Games got in touch to let us know he’d written his review and it seems he is also a fan:
“the first thing that you’ll notice about the LG Viewty is just how great this mobile phone actually looks and feels in your hand – it sits nicely in the hand, not being too big or heavy”
Particularly of the camera (a common theme now!)
“The camera that comes on the LG Viewty is one of the best that I’ve seen on a mobile phone boasting an impressive 5 megapixels of detail for your photos. It has good quality flash (the first camera I’ve actually owned to have one – smartphones don’t tend to have this feature)”
…
“with the LG Viewty KU990, you’ve basically got a great digital camera with built-in phone functionality!”
The team at Know Your Mobile were almost too kind in their review of “the 5 megapixel, HSDPA and touchscreen wonder phone”
Oh you guys..
“it matches many of the iPhone’s specs and in many cases exceeds them.”
…
“the Viewty is a definite step up from the Prada not just in terms of its feature set but also its build quality. The phone packs a bit of heft with its dimensions of 104mm by 55mm by 17mm and its 112 gramme weight. But it’s a nice, solid and expensive-feeling heft”
…
“our first impressions of the LG Viewty are that it seems like an excellent mobile phone that has been saddled with user interface that is potentially superb but still has some bugs to be ironed out.”
They go on, but we wouldn’t want to brag…

Interesting one Helen. I struggled for ages to find the straight to YouTube upload to find it is not installed on the phone.
Is there a firmware upgrade to allow me to use this?
Thanks

You missed one review of the camera out…

Not quite the similar conclusion you’d expect… perhaps a firmware upgrade may help some of those experiencing poor quality from the supposedly excellent camera?
But I don’t expect this comment to be published as this doesn’t appear to be a blog but just an LG advert site…
