LG KC910
Quote
LG has confirmed it will release an eight-megapixel cameraphone this year – even as details and juicy pictures emerged online of what the release is expected to be: the KC910.
The cameras on phones are now beginning to rival some of the latest compacts, not only does the camera on this baby come with manual focusing if you need it, it also has face, smile and blink detection, standards in the latest compact cameras. To keep the feature list up it also has a Xenon flash and image stability too.
The KC910 will have space for micro SD cards, USB, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. It also has a 240x400mm touch screen display
Should be released “Some time this year” and a price is yet to be announced.

Lg have announced the release of the their new KS20 which they hope will be able to compete with Apple’s iPhone, due for release on the 9th November.
This new handset looks suspiciously like the LG PRADA KE850 and is released today in the UK, cunningly a few days before the iPhone.

Cunningly released just a few days before the iPhone goes on sale in the UK, the KS20 has a 2.8in touchscreen allowing users to view web pages downloaded over 3.6Mb/s HSPDA 3G connections. The tri-band GSM handset also includes 802.11b/g Wi-Fi connectivity, with Bluetooth 2.0 for short-range communication.
The phone ships with a 128MB internal memory and accepts Micro SD cards for storing pictures taken on its two-megapixel camera. However, it also acts as a multimedia device and stores video and music files, including MPEG 4 and MP3 formats, respectively. An FM radio’s included too.
Running on the Windows Mobile 6 OS, the handset gives around four hours of talk time and a good 400 hours in standby, LG claimed.
I have never really liked LG phones, to me they always look like something was missing from their design, and I am afraid that this one does the same for me again. It just isn’t as sexy as the iPhone and if the interface is based on the KE850 then this is just going to be an iPhone rip off rather than a competitor…
