Unwired View: LG KU990 Viewty Review. (Almost) everything you need to know about it

  • lgviewtyDOTinfo · 1 year ago
    Very nice review, one of the reasons why i ended up buying LG Viewty.

    5-megapixel cam? Check!
    Excellent video cam? Check! Slowwwww mo the best feature!
    Video Player? Check! (DivX baby!)
    Game Player? Check! I've got tons of flash-based games.
    Music Player? Check! AAC? MP3? Wav? AVI? No prob!
    Data Storage? Check!
    Internet capable? Check!
    MMS? Check!
    Video-calls? Check!

    This is, in short, a very, very, capable mobile.

    I even think this is the best mobile in the market right now.. =)

    Check out some of the pics i took using this baby:

    LG Viewty has great feature and a good screen. The problem with KU990 is that it does not excel in any areas. Viewty is priced at Rs 21500/- and at this price Viewty is very costly, in case you need 5MP camera there are other models like Sony Ericsson K850i which has better camera.

    Are you actually talking about the lg viewty? you must be kidding about the picture quality! its one of the best out there!
  • kunglao · 5 months ago
    to be honest...the viewty is a great phone. Have you notcied it has 5.1 megapixel, so how can that be worse than a 1.5 mp of a nokia? and you can get wifi, check your settings, and you're not really going to attract customers to your offer of 60% off, when you've just described it as the worst phone ever made by LG.

    everyone except seems to understand that the LG viewty is a great phone, you get it for the stuff it's got, and if it dosn't have what you want, then maybe you shouldn't have bought it in the first place.
    Get your facts sorted out, and have a backup argument for your future slag offs of technology

  • trihoang · 1 year ago
    I do not know why it adversed so much.If anybody who donot get it yet,please DONOT say anything about this shit.I cannot emagine how a phone run out of battery that incredible fast.If u donot want to miss phone call>>>donot use video ,camera and the other funtions.
    how can they give it so many good feature but notime to use it
    my advice to everybody
    want it phone: please ,this angle is a DEATH ANGLE
    who already got the phone :sell it as soon as possible befor too late(everybody know what it is)
    mail me trido1986@yahoo.com.vn for sharing dispointment about this crap
  • Tiffaney · 1 year ago
    I dont know why some people say its a rubbish phone :/
    Its the best phone i've ever had and i've had alot of phones! from Sagem, to nokia !
    Its easy to use and fun, the internet is incredible!
    And the camera is excellent its better than my digi cam which I paid £300 for.
    It does run out of battery quickly but its a small sacrifice for such a great phone!
    I love it <3

    I've had my viewty for a week now... and I think its a very capable phone. I keep finding new things on it.. like today the finer pic setting. I certainly do not regret buying it.
  • d · 1 year ago
    really nice phone, i use it and really good, satisfied though.
    little costly but worth it,
    the bad thing's is
    no service center in my city (denpasar, bali, indonesia),
    no software update (even a theme)
    i even can not found leather bag for viewty (to preventing scratching)
    n can not found other peripheral for viewty here

  • VIEWTYHATER · 1 year ago
    DONT BOTHERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR WITH THIS PHONE IF YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE CALLS AND SEND TEXTS AND DO STUFF ON IT WITHOUT IT TURNING OFF EVERY 5 MINUTESSSSS.

    Its fine for the first 9 months or so, the honeymoon period we can call it, and then afterwards it turns into THE DEVIL.

  • Jack, newcastle · 11 months ago
    27dec2008. I am actually using my ku990 now, but i keep having problems with it unexpectedlx turning off(when fully charged). Its pretty new so is it just the battery being run in or something more serious?
  • Holly · 11 months ago
    I love this phone it has everything on it and the camera is amazing but , the only problem with it is that eveytim i leave it on my bed for a few moments it starts to get warm then it starts to make a funny noise as if its sparking it sounds like static electricity, but i dont no whats wrong with it,
    anyone else had the same problem ?

  • LG KU990 · 11 months ago
    This is quite a cool phone actually, I've been using it for a bit now and like it.
    The camera isn't that bad either.

    Found reviews & stuff on Hightech365 before I bought it which was quite cool, help me make my mind up :p

  • nika · 7 months ago
    the only thng to do is buy a back up battery they are less than $10 on ebay. Thats what I had to do but it really too much of a hassle so I'm selling mine as soon as the new iphone comes out! Plus you can't upload picyures! Which really sucks
  • Kingaa · 6 months ago
    Maybe it dies because it has a big screen(good screen) so it needs a lot of battery.
  • tasha09 · 10 months ago
    i Have same problem with mine get rid of it the phone will cost u 2 much 2 fix, its a problem with the chip reader on the phone.
  • alin · 9 months ago

    please tell me if i should buy it or not.
    thanks.
  • Thomas Buxton · 6 months ago
    I just ordered mine, should be in tomorrow. I got a really good deal on it, and to be honest; most of the BAD reports from this site we over exaggerated imo. I have heard 91% good comments and the other 9% of people are there are probably to lame to figure out how to work phones properly. I say go for it Kingaa!

  • karl the bullet · 5 months ago
    deffo getting this fone on monday, was going to get the samsung tocco but heard that the touchscreen on it can be quite enoying and slow + its more expensive, read a few reviews on the lg viewty now and no fone is perfect but this fone seems awsum, cant wait to get one!!
  • Ann · 5 months ago
    This is the worst phone I've ever had the misfortune of buying. The battery life is appalling (2days at most on minimal use), the ariel is VERY POOR making every call a reception nightmare (my previous Nokia gave no trouble in the same areas) and the touch screen is a novelty that wore off within 10 mins (I prefer the tactileness of buttons and am fed up of hitting the wrong key on the screen). The only benifit of this phone is the camera. But that's not enough.
