LG Announces Ke990, KU990 Lite

LG KE990 Phone



With the Viewty proving one of the more popular camera phones on the market a new variant on them should be more than welcome - shouldn’t it? Is the KE990 really a welcome addition to the LG family?

The new variant of the KU990 packs all the same features as its predecessor bar one - can you guess? The LG naming codes indicate the network support generally with KU representing 3G and KE, shock horror, indicating EDGE support.

Before you start railing about the decline of the mobile mammoth take into account the the new release is primarily targeted at emerging markets such as China - and that being said - its feature pack of 5 megapixel auto-focus camera, DivX, H.264, H.263, MPEG4 video playback and MP3, AAC, WMA audio is pretty impressive.
