LG KU990 Viewty compared to pack of playing cardsThe LG Viewty KU990 might sound like it's a digital camera but it's actually LG's latest camera phone that features an impressive 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and xenon flash!
Besides the impressive camera, we should also be very proud of its lovely large touchscreen, which lets us view images easily. On the other hand, it also has the ability to upload videos directly to YouTube and to shoot video at 120 frames per second, this allows us to slow it down and watch it in slow-motion, as seen in the clip below. This feature's ideal for shooting fast-moving sports footage.

Pricing is yet to be confirmed but it's likely to be free on a monthly contract of around £30 to £40 per month.
DesignMany camera phones take good pictures but they don't have look great on appearance. luckily the LG KU990 Viewty is not an ugly camera phone. In fact, it's one of the best-looking camera phones in market so far!
In line with LG's latest and greatest handsets, the KU990 has an understated design that feels functional but also exudes a certain amount of class. It feels light but not plasticky and looks more like a high-end handset than the cheap LG phones we've seen in the past.
Similar to the LG Prada and Apple's iPhone, the KU990 features a large touchscreen with three mechanical keys at the bottom,
the end and send call keys, and the
cancel key .While the touchscreen is prone to fingerprints and scratches, which is so attractive.
Positioned at the top-left section of the back of the handset is the KU990's attractive feature, a 5-megapixel camera!But disappointingly it isn't protected by a lens cover. Next to the camera is xenon flash and autofocus light, similar to those on the Sony Ericsson K810i.
Around the side of the camera is an interesting rocker disc that you can push up and down to scroll through menu options, to adjust the volume during calls and zoom in and out in camera mode, among other things. It's an interesting concept however its not always easy to press and we would have preferred a standard rocker key.
The KU990 comes with a 5-megapixel camera with xenon flash but there's no coverOn the right side of the KU990 are two dedicated camera keys and a switch to change modes. The mode switch is a little tough to change at times but the shutter key is well-sized and very easy to press, which is usually different from cases of other camera phones.
