LG KU990 Viewty with Contract

The LG KU990 is a wonderfully attractive phone with all the necessary features. It is very fashionable, resembling the popular LG Prada phone, with a large 3-inch touch screen. The measurements of the LG KU990 (103.5mm high by 54.4mm wide by 14.8mm deep) are perfect for a touch screen phone. Its weight of 112g and its solid design allow for easy handling. The touch screen has a 240x400 pixel screen resolution and can show 262 colours. The 5.1 megapixel digital camera, complete with a Schneider kreuznach lens, auto focus, image stabiliser & a xenon flash, is extremely good; the pictures are of a superb quality, especially when uploaded to a computer.

*A Little History* I obtained this phone via contract in January on Vodafone after scanning several providers for the best deals. What encouraged me to buy it in the end was the outstanding reviews the phone recieved on nearly every website I checked. I pay £25 per month and get 600 anytime minutes to any network and unlimited texts. I also took advantage by buying the phone online through Quidco, who are a cashback website, and getting £90 cash back. LG have advertised the phone as an all singing and all dancing touchscreen phone and some have compared it to the i phone. Having never owned an i phone it would be unfair of me to comment but if ...  Read the complete review

Here I am again writing about yet another mobile phone.. But rest assured I think this may be the last one for quite some time..! No actually let me rephrase this it will be the last one for 17-18 months.. As I have finally got myself a contract phone, a decent phone for so much less than I would have been paying in credit..! So I went into the t-mobile shop in Boston and had a gaunt around looking at the free phones I could have... The list was quite long and if you know me.. You know it takes ages for me to decide what I want, especially when I'm going to have it for a very long time.. The people in the T-mobile shop were all really friendly and ...  Read the complete review

When the Viewty came out I immediately thought "I got to have one". So as soon as my phone contract was up for renewal, I bartered with the guy in the shop and eventually got my Viewty. Its a great looking phone, a slide for protecting the charging element on one side, on the front only 3 small buttons, hardly visible when the phone is not in use and on the other side two further buttons, one for taking photos or video and one to stop shakes on pictures, there is another slider this is to choose between camera, video or video player. On the reverse of the phone is a 5.0 mp auto/manual focus lens, a red eye reduction light and a ...  Read the complete review

The LG Viewty - Looks like an iphone but think again! Unlike its prettier counterpart the Viewty is primarily a multi-functional phone with decent video/ camera and high speed internet (HSDPA) capabilities. One up for the underdog then. Having owned one for a while now here is an honest rundown - its not all good I'm afraid. The pro's: Desirable design - Well made, quality use of materials. Nice touch screen, the qwerty keyboard arrangement is great for texting. The camera is good (5mp) and the video has a slo-mo feature that is unique as far as I'm aware. You can also upload straight to You-tube although like many I suspect... never did! The ...  Read the complete review
