LG release tri-band GSM phone - LG KG920

[Mod]

LG launched a tri-band GSM handset, the LG KG920, with a 5 megapixel auto-focus camera. The candy bar style KG920 is also LG's first 5 megapixel camera to be introduced in the UK. The KG920 is designed to bring lightness to camera and photo enthusiast's pockets, but still have the ability to shoot quality photos while on the go.

The KG920's uniqueness is the twist design for the 5 megapixel camera which permits users to rotate the camera 180 degrees. Because of the special hinge design, the KG920's camera always allows its user to view the display, whether the subject is a friend or themselves. In addition to looking good, the KG920's camera supports both landscape and sport modes, and has a 4x digital zoom. Users can then view photos on the handset's large 2" 262k color TFT display or send to them friends via email or MMS. Photos can be stored in the 8MB of internal storage, on a memory card (a 256MB card is included), or on a PC using synchronization software. The memory card can also be used for storing music since the KG920 has a MP3/AAC/AAC+ capable music player.

The silver handset supports the 900, 1800, and 1900MHz GSM frequency bands and weighs in at 130g (4.6oz). The KG920 measures up at 108mm x 50mm x 18mm (4.3" x 2.0" x 0.7") and will be available in the UK August of this year.
