LG and their Viewty phones are well known for the camera centric features and the above average picture quality that comes with them. So some would say it a little strange that they haven’t added any new models to their line up recently.
Thus making most of the range rather obsolete, until now that is, as according to a recent article over at techtree.com it seems they have now announced another handset the Viewty Snap GM360.
For those of you that didn’t know most other manufacturers have upgraded to 8 and 12 megapixel camera phones whereas LG Viewty phones are still just 5 megapixel. The new GM360 has what LG have or are calling Optic – all Zoom. While you would probably expect that this would mean optical zoom capabilities which would be great this is something else.
This appears to be more about enhanced digital zoom, where you don’t get as much loss in quality of the image as compared to normal digital zoom found on most camera phones. Of course there are phones with Optical Zoom but they are mostly on the bulky side for those that are looking for daily usage.
