LG KF700 or Viewty

Hi All

My contract is up for renewal with O2. I orginally phoned up and asked about the iphone, however after reading reviews i decided against it.

They offered me a LG Viewty which has 5 mpx camera etc and reviews seem to be very good. I phoned back the next day only for them trying to talk me ino the NEW Lg KF700...

Does anyone know anything about this new KF700 ? Camera is important to me so the viewty would be best however if im going to have a phone for 18 months surely its better to go with the latest one.

Your thoughts are appreciated.

looked at both and went for the viewty as it has a 5mpx camera instead of 3.2 (KF700). Only thing is that it can be a bit footery when trying to take a good shot. Also buy some sort of cover for it as the screen is huge and will attract scratches something chronic!!

I just bought a crystal clear protector for my LG Viewty off ebay for £2.38. They start at £2.19 in. postage (these types seemed bulkier) so I splashed out the extra 19p and got the slim version lol.

This will keep the phone in tip-top condition and hold the resale value higher when the time comes.

Screen protectors are also on ebay for a cheap price.

Just typ LG Viewty into the search bar and look under the cases and pouches headers.

Apparantly the KF700 is much improved speed wise on the UI and a much better implementation of the jog wheel (almost as good as the old Sony's!), which is two things that sometimes lets the Viewty down.
