Modestly dubbed the KC550, LG’s latest sliver of mobile sophistication is hoping to satiate your multi-media mojo.
Motion-controlled gaming has made it onboard, in the form of a new “M-Toy” function – basically, it’s packing an accelerometer that detects the handsets movements (such as tilting or shaking) so you can throw darts, hook a fish or navigate through tricky mazes simply by moving the device.
On the photo front, the KC550 isn’t shy either with a 5-megapixel camera taking care of snapping duties. Plus, with video capable of being shot at 30 frames per second, it’s equally suited to the amateur cinematographer or budding Fellini. You can also peep DVD quality flicks on its 2.4-inch LCD screen.
