Just in case you haven’t already made up your mind to take the plunge with LG’s upcoming Viewty Smart, LG has a video to show you.  We assume people will definitely like its 8 megapixel camera, the iPhone-esque S-Class 3D interface, the big 3-inch touchscreen, and a back that looks just like a digital camera, but the lack of an operating system could be a dealbreaker for many aspiring customers.  Enjoy the video and don’t forget to sound out your thoughts in the comments section.

Last week, the GC900, which we have now come to call as the LG Viewty Smart, made an appearance on the LG blog, which was later taken down.  This time around, we bring you news straight from the horse’s mouth and have one more detail to add: a release date.  According to the press release by LG recently, the 8mpx Viewty Smart cameraphone will start appearing through “operators in Europe” this May, but the article did not mention a price, so may be it’s up to the operators now to come out with their subsidized prices. In the meantime, enjoy a few beauty shots of the LG Viewty Smart on us after the break…

And Smart it is, with its ultra-sleek looks and power-packed features.  LG has now fessed up and announced the GC900, which we knew better as the Viewty II, and will be called the LG Smart hereon.  We pretty much knew all its ins and outs but in case you missed some, here are its major features all crammed into a thickness of 12.4 mm:

• HSDPA network support
• WiFi
• 3-inch TFT touchscreen display
• 8-megapixel camera with video capture at 720×480 resolution
• aGPS with Geotagging
• S-Class 3D UI
• Weight: 90g

Pricing and availability aren’t revealed yet, but the Orange logo on one of the images confirms that it will be the carrier playing home to LG Smart in the UK.

LG’s Viewty phone has been a real hit so LG has decided to create a second version of it. The GC900 is supposed to be follower of the first Viewy phone. It will come with a 3-inch touchscreen display which will boast an 800 x 480 resolution. An 8 megapixel camera is also on board and LG’s S-class 3D UI is there too. The rest of the specs will be similar to Viewty’s specs and the phone should arrive this Spring. It will probably hit South Korea first while other markets will offer it later.

The KC910 aka Renoir’s 8-megapixel camera and its touchscreen interface were caught on camera recently and although it’s not a huge leap for LG in terms of technology, the camera alone should be enough to win over LG Viewty fans and photogs alike. The LG KC910 is shaped up in the usual bar form factor for a touchscreen cellphone and is a multimedia powerhouse with its ability to play Xvid and DivX videos natively in addition to many other usual formats with a big beautiful QVGA display to watch them on. Dubbed as the Veiwty II, the KC910 also carries a host of connectivity options including Bluetooth and WiFi along with 3G/HSDPA support and a GPS receiver for turn-by-turn navigation and geotagging photos. With the Schneider-Kreuznach-certified 8-megapixel lens being the strong point, this touchscreen device has a lot of camera-centric features like a Xenon flash, auto/manual focus, face/smile tracking, blink detection, and a bevy of creative shot modes to equal that of an average digital camera.

The LG KC910 will hit the streets in October, but until then, a couple of more pictures after the break should keep you satisfied.
