LG Viewty
We sell a lot of cameraphones here, and for one to literally take our breath away is virtually impossible. Well, the LG Viewty, with awesome 5 megapixel camera, very nearly made us pass out in excitement! Could this be the ultimate cameraphone? It very well could be!!
Sometimes a phone arrives that we just can't believe. Literally, it takes our breath away. And if we're honest, the LG Viewty is one of the most mind-blowing mobile phones we've ever seen!
Absolutely Viewtiful
First off, the most obvious question: why have LG named it Viewty? Well, when we looked in the urban dictionary, which is where LG got the name, this is what we found:
Viewtiful: Something flashy or stylish. Someone with superpowers.
Yep, both of those summarise the LG Viewty rather exactly, actually! It's built on top of the same Flash operating system as the Prada, with a huge touchscreen, or in other words, it's simply fabulous to use. Incidentally, the animated background with the goldfish in a pond, that follows your finger around, is, it's possible, the single coolest thing we've ever seen!
Ultimate Camera
Actually, we take that back. That accolade goes to the camera on the LG Viewty! Weighing in at a substantial 5 megapixels, it will give you crisp, beautiful photos. However, not content with giving it 5 megapixels, LG have also packed it full of features that are quite honestly stunning. So, you get the latest Schneider-Kreuznach lenses, image stabiliser (you just can't beat anti-shake for amazing pictures), ISO8000 Smartlight (for super sharp night shots) and coolest of all, manual focus. You want to make the subject of your photo stand out? Simply touch that bit of it on the LG Viewty's screen, and it focuses in on your friend, or pet, or whatever. That's not just novel, it's awesomely useful, too!
The LG Viewty can also record super-high quality video. As well as that, but you can slide it into 120 frames-per-second mode, and then capture slow-motion action shots, in the mould of John Woo. Then you can edit shots in sequence, to make your own blockbuster. Oh, and after that, with one button press, you can instantly upload the whole masterpiece onto Youtube. It doesn't get much cooler than that! Now factor in even more cool stuff, like Google Maps, and lots of media options, and it makes the LG Viewty one serious contender for best phone in the world. You may have guessed our thoughts about it, but we'll spell it out. The LG Viewty is just about perfect in every imaginable way!

LG Viewty Reviews
This phone is ok but it has a few bad points. The touch screen is a little bit slow and its sometimes does the opposite to what you want it to do.

the LG viewty is a GOOD phone ive had it for a couple of years but it does get boring and i dont think the memory is good, although i love the camera but memory is not allowing me to take anymore.
i would recommend the phone though

If youre thinking of getting a Viewty, dont bother. Ive had one for 6 months now and hate it! Screen scratches too easily, camera average, cannot delete txts in block, touchscreen really really annoying. Only 12 months to go for an upgrade!!

good
Aroma rated the LG Viewty: 4/10
The LG Viewty is an absolutely mindblowing device with some amazing features including, its 5 megapixel camera and an astonishing sleek body. However the price of this handset will make many people turn their head to another "cheaper" handset such as the new Samsung G800, which has almost as many features as the Viewty including that amazing 5 megapixel camera. My average score of this wonderful phone is an 8 out of 10. The areas that LG could work on with its model is improve the battery life. I also found that the phone didn't do that well after I used it in the rain, this is a big dent in the quality of the phone if they're going to be charging such high charges for this phone. My final thoughts on this phone is on a high simply because of the beauty of this phone and features.

You just can`t argue with raw power, but power`s even better when it`s cheap. So, check out the LG Viewty, with its brilliant camera and low, low price. In fact, the LG Viewty may be the best value camera phone you`ll ever experience!
