Still remember that LG Viewty 5-megapixel camera touchscreen phone? Well, here’s the follow up to it, the LG KC910 or otherwise known as LG Renoir.
It features a large 3-inch WQVGA 240×400 touchscreen display, an 8-megapixel camera with Schneider-Kreuznach lens and Xenon flash, GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi, and 3G/HSDPA. The specs are undeniably impressive, but unfortunately, there’s no mention about its OS and from the looks of it, it doesn’t appear to be Windows Mobile 6.1. While we’re not exactly thrilled at the performance of the mobile Windows OS, it’s the most decent mobile OS out there that’s available for touchscreen devices aside from the Mac OS X mobile. The LG Renoir is expected to be released in October with specific availability dates, region and price yet to be known.
Sure, the specs are good and all, but its similarity to the iPhone in terms of design is really a big turn off for me personally. Sure, it’s a touchscreen phone just like the iPhone, but does it have to looks so much alike Apple’s mobile phone? It would have been better if LG came out with a more original design so that the Renoir will truly stand out and be recognized as a unique product in the market.
