LG Viewty
The LG KU990 or LG KE990 (known and marketed as the LG Viewty) is a 3.5G touchscreen smartphone by LG Electronics, announced on August 23, 2007 and then released in Europe and Asia. A high-end model at the time of its release, the Viewty had a resistive touchscreen and was specially marketed for its camera due to its powerful camera features. The Viewty had a high gloss black look similar to the previous LG Prada, although it was also released in many other colours. In South Korea, it was known as the Beauty Phone (뷰티폰).
A key feature of the LG Viewty is its 5-megapixel digital camera with Schneider Kreuznach optics, Xenon flash, autofocus, and a digital image stabilizer. It features an ISO 800-equivalent High-Sensitivity mode for night scenery shots and "Smart Light" for bright and clear images in the dark. It allows capturing of MP4 VGA video at 30 FPS, and QVGA at 120 FPS for slow-motion playback. According to the manufacturer, the camera's frame rate is high enough to film a balloon bursting.
The Viewty also has a front camera, designed for 3G video calling.
In addition to being able to view YouTube videos, the LG Viewty also featured the ability to upload videos directly onto the platform.
The device supports Flash Lite 2 and MIDP Java 2.0. There are a few built-in system applications like Office and a PDF document viewer, movie and photo editor, and Obigo web browser.
The rear camera has a wheel that physically rotates, which can be used for scrolling in menus, zooming in and out of webpages or changing the volume.
An updated model, the KU990i, was later released, but only in European markets. It features a new camera module, always-on flash mode and automatic smile and face detection. However, the strobe flash is replaced by an LED, and it does not include image stabilization nor Schneider Kreuznach optics.
The organizer in the phone could only store 100 calendar events and is not officially listed on the compatible list with the popular GooSync, which helps sync phone calendars with Google Calendar (though it does work by using instructions for LG Arena).
