LG has opened the shutter on the LG-KC910, the first 8 megapixel touchscreen phone.
It says the 13.95 mm thick device is the slimmest 8 megapixel camera phone on the market. Interestingly, the KC910 is also the first handset to include Dolby Mobile, for improved audio playback.
Highlight features include Schneider-Kreuznach certified optics, xenon flash, image stabiliser, auto-focus, manual focus, Face Tracking, Smile Shot and blink detection.
It can record video from 5 frames per second (FPS) up to 120 FPS, allowing it to record in both slow and fast motion.
It also plays DivX and Xvid movies straight out of the box, without the need for additional encoding.
The LG-KC910 also has Assisted GPS-enabled navigation and an embedded GPS receiver, giving users the ability to geo-tag photos for later plotting on an interactive map. There's even a Jogging Buddy program that uses GPS technology to help track workouts, a feature sure to please exercise enthusiasts.
