LG's Viewty II (almost) gets official with a new nickname in tow

News

While LG may have shown off the Viewty II at a trade show or two, it’s actual existence had never been officially acknowledged by the Korean company until now, as the handset has been officially featured on LG’s German blog. Although the company did reveal some very nice photos of the device which has also been given the nickname Viewty Smart, very little was mentioned in regards to the specs of the phone itself. However, since its spec sheet was captured by an eagle-eyed trade show attendee a few months back, we know the following:

  • 12.4mm thin, 90g
  • S-Class 3D UI
  • 3-inch WVGA (800 x 480 pixels) touchscreen display
  • Quad-band GSM, HSPA, WiFi, aGPS
  • 8 megapixel Schneider-Kreuznach camera, Xenon flash
  • 32GB storage
  • DivX playback

Find it odd that the company would provide such a small amount of info on its blog? Yeah, it looks like there was a bit of a mix up as the post in question has since been pulled — though the bright side is that the blog now states more info will be available in a few days. Perhaps then we’ll get a better idea of pricing and release timing as well.

Hit the jump for a few more pics of the sexy handset.

    Neat. We’re seeing more and more touch only phones look less and less like the iPhone, yay for creativity!

    Not that the iPhone wasn’t creative, just that others are doing more than just copying.

    are you sure that there will be xenon flash? looks more like led flash to me…

    is lg allergic to lense covers????

    I’m with kzy; that seems to be a bit small for a Xenon. That phone is sexy, but purely from a theoretical standpoint.

    Sadly, this will probably be yet another tease that we in the US will never see. I like it though.
