Review: LG KG920
"...After spending time with it, I cannot say I am convinced to pay the US$670 asking price, though. We knew right from the start that the KG920 was meant to be an expensive phone, due to the fact that LG has packed some impressive technology in the casing. Unfortunately, the phone simply failed to impress apart from its camera, which is not problem-free either. The slow menu and clumsy shutter button might have already turned away a lot of potential buyers. It is also impossible to consider the KG920 solely on its camera when it cannot act as a standalone imaging device, due to the fact that there is no Flight Mode and the camera will not start without a SIM card.
Our KG920 had firmware version KG920P64-ESA-V10d dated Jun13 2006I doubt the KG920 will ever become mainstream. It is also uncertain if the phone will have a long enough market lifespan to profit LG as they expected last year. Look at the outdated UI, look at the now average music performance, and look at how crowded the market has become. If you are a serious photographer without a pocketable digital camera, the Sharp 903 is too boring for you, the Sony Ericsson K800i color and video quality isn't good enough, the Nokia N73 pictures are too processed, and the N93 is too chunky, the KG920 might just fill the void and give you hope...."
