LG KG920 5 megapixel cameraphone coming to Europe!
3.2 megapixel camera phones in Europe are just like, so yesterday. LG just
announced that their previously South-Korea-only C960 cell shooter is
hitting the cobbled streets of Europe as a GSM-variety LG-KG920...with that same 5 megapixel auto focus camera, flash,
and lens-cover built-in. Yeah, it also features Bluetooth, MiniSD to store your snaps, and an MP3 player which is nice,
but g’damn, 5-freakin’ megapixels! Come on LG, South Korea will soon be awash in 8 megapixels, you can
afford to throw the US a fiver-bone too!














Wow, I am one jealous American... but I'm ok cause at least USA dominates the olympics and that is better than a super... sexy.....five megapixel PHONE (drools a little)....right?
You really think that thing is sexy? I think it is pretty fugly - the result of trying to cram too much into too little a space. And what is with the dual flashes? A "light ring" would have looked alot better and allowed light to reach the subject regardless of angle. Oh well, to each his/her own.
I want 5MP, and I'm ready to buy...but I want it as part of a sync-able wifi mobile PC.
There's no need to be a jealous American... a friend of mine actually purchased his LG C960 (pre-bluetooth, etc...) here in the US. I didn't realize this either but if you go into any given "Koretown" (in my case here in Los Angeles), there are cellular phone shops that specialize in these kinds of Korea-only phones. I'm not sure what kind of premium they charge but I do believe that it is reasonable. For the C960, my friend was required to sign up for a 3-year contract with Verizon and paid about $300 out-the-door. It's a pretty great little phone and it really does look great and work really well. My opinion when I saw it in person was that it is one of the most well-executed camera/phone combos I've seeen. That said, I'm planning to purchase the new KG920 when it becomes available. If any of you are interested, feel free to email me and I can keep you posted when that happens.
You're really lucky then, because here in China, the same phone costs about $750 (with contract- about $12 per month) but it is worth every penny. I borrowed one from a friend and loved it!
Wow, I think I'm changing my name to Charles and moving to Europe so I could get this cool phone.
Now about that TV tax...
great, now i can have my phone attached to my luggage, the only place it would fit! Americans are ready for this huge device, even if it did have that nice of camera!
Hey! I am interested with that one the LG KG 920 phone, if for any reason you get to hear that it arrived at the said store, kindly give i a shout @ tonybatty@yahoo.com, thnak you a million, I have Korean Friends here in my country of Belize, will ask them as someone in their family works with LG Korea. But it would be nice to get one on my own.
To MICHAEL WHANG,
Hi, You said that your friend in Los Angeles bought a phone that is similar to this one? If you don't mind asking your friend what's the place and phone number to that store where your friend got the phone. I would really appreciate it very much...Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks.
