LG Renoir Makes Its Way To Australia

1:57PM Nick Broughall | Fans of LG’s Viewty mobile phone should be excited by the news that the Korean company is bringing its successor, the Renoir, to Australia. Aside from having one of the worst names for a mobile phone we’ve ever come across, the Renoir is a bit of a spec machine, with an 8MP camera, xenon flash, 120fps video mode, A-GPS, HSDPA connectivity, built in Wi-Fi and a 3-inch touchscreen.

LG Renoir Surfaces; Shows Off Touchscreen, 8MP Camera, Fingerprints

2:30AM Jack Loftus | We brought you a shiny stock image of LG’s Viewty successor, the Renoir, back in August, and today we’re bringing you the requisite fingerprint-laden in the wild photos (with watermarks!). They give a more accurate depiction of this puppy’s 8MP monster, complete with Schneider-Kreuznach certified optics, xenon flash and ISO up to 1600. There’s a phone in there too, with quad-band GSM, a 3-inch touchscreen, GPS, Bluetooth 2.0, and Wifi. The Renoir will be available sometime in October. Maybe they’ll take that plastic band off the outside by then. [Toys and Gadgets via BGR] More »
