LG U990 released
3 finally released the LG U990 this morning. From their press release…
“Touch the LG U990 now.
3 is proud to launch the newest offering from the leaders in touchscreens. The fabulous high-tech LG U990.
Everything is literally at your fingertips with the 3-inch high-res touchscreen, while the 5 Megapixel camera and it’s revolutionary manually controlled zoom make the U990 a rival for most digital cameras. Plus the dial around the lens acts as a jog dial so access to all the menus is super quick. Videos can be captured and watched in slow-mo with the 120 frames per second function.
Here’s a taste of what this sophisticated beauty holds:
- 5 megapixel camera with xenon flash and manually controlled zoom
- Video camera
- MP3 player with Bluetooth stereo
- HSPDA
- Compatible with X-Series Silver
- 170MB of internal memory and Micro SD slot
The slim LG U990 is the newest technological marvel on the market and is available on the £9 Video Pack with 90 video minutes.”
Whilst only 3 are currently stocking this, there isn’t much competition to reduce the TCO for this phone. Yet, it won’t be soon before retailers add this phone to their collection.
Update
The LG phone has now been released across other networks, but retailers are marketing this under a few names - either (surprisingly) the LG U990, or the LG KU990, or LG Viewty, or a combination of all three.
