The guys from BGR made a little hands-on review of the LG Viewty handset and remained pleased with its performance and functionality.

The best feature of this phone is of course the 5Mpix camera with auto- and manual focus, 800 ISO mode, onboard image stabilization, and capable of capturing videos at 120fps. The image quality is almost the same (or maybe even better) as on the Nokia N95.

LG is about to release its Viewty phone in the Middle East and Africa.

The long-awaited handset will be available next week in selected markets, but this of course won't stop LG fans who are always ready to travel a bit in order to get their hands on this baby.

Just to remind you of LG Viewty's main characteristics, it is a stylish all-touch-screen cell phone with a 5Mpix camera, which also can be used to watch videos, including those from YouTube.

Remember the LG-KU990 "Viewty" camera-phone that was presented in Korea several months ago?

Well, LG has just announced it will soon appear in the European market. Below you can see a full list of the phone's specifications.
