An announcement of the LG Viewty II is soon to be expected, a new cameraphone of the Korean brand. Although the device is not communicated by LG yet, we did notice it at the LG Dealershow that took place today in the Netherlands.

The new LG GC900, the type number of the LG Viewty II, has a 3 inch WVGA touchscreen (800 x 480 pixels) and offers the same 3D S-Class User Interface as we also came across on the de
LG Arena, which was announced just before the Mobile World Congress. Key feature will of course be the 8 megapixel camera with a Xenon flash, manual and automatich focus, image stabilizer, fase detection, burst-mode, ISO 1600 and geotagging. The device is black at the front, silver at the back and has three regular keys underneath the display.

The Viewty II will not only be positioned as a photo device, but also video is leaving the background more and more. The device can record both sowmotion and high-speed video, in which LD professes that the device can record videos entirely without noise. Furthermore, the LG Viewty II can play Divx and Xvid files.
The device is also very up to date on the area of connectivity. The device is equipped with quad-band GSM, UMTS, HSDPA 7.2 and HSUPA 1.4 Mbit. Furthermore, WiFi and a aGPS receiver are also present, with which the LG Viewty II is fully connected. Finally, an accelerometer makes it possible for the display to automatically rotate as soon as the device is held in portrait or landscape mode.
It is still unclear when the LG KC900 Viewty II will be announced, but it may be expected that this may be a matter of weeks more than a matter of months!
