LG KC910, the viewty successor gets finally named LG Renoir

September 22nd, 2008

The Samsung Omnia competitor and viewty successor from LG now officially called LG Renoir (previously KC910) has been captured live by BoyGeniusReport and there is a shot showing the Widgetized Mobile desktop. in the LG Renoir is more akin to a emulation of the Mac Dashboard, instead of the Vista Sidebar like approach of the Samsung Omnia. i think the Vista Sidebar is the best implemantion (after all it got followed by Yahoo Widget Engine and Google Desktop) . so seeing this implementation is disappointing. the phone itself counts with some INSANE specs but it stopped in its tracks by having a custom LG OS that is not anywhere close to pack the power in terms of  software wealth and possible software scenarios the omnia has by shipping with Windows Mobile 6.1. however it is important to remember that the what gave the omnia its punch was the combination of its TouchWIZ UI with Windows Mobile 6.1, so it is a possibility that LG may release a WM version of the LG Renoir later on. that would be interesting to see.

After all. The Omnia was response to LG original viewty (that was a spinoff of the prada). it makes me think what kind of insane phone the Omnia 2 or whatever gets to be the Samsung Omnia Successor could get to be (WM7, TW2?). but sticking to the widget factor in this phone. it is seriously lacking and not anywhere as polished as it is the Samsung TouchWIZ completely Widgetized UI and UX.

Live Images of LG Renoir, the Viewty successor, emerge

LG-KC910, the successor to the viewty comes with 8mp camera,3g and a Widgetized desktop?

September 5th, 2008

I guess it is quite official now. smartphones from korea will carry widgetized desktops (home/start page). because in the official pictures for the LG-KC910 now heralded as the successor to the Viewty (that was derived from the Prada phone) you can see exactly just that.

it is a interesting call in terms that samsung and LG have found that the widgetization of the UI and UX in mobiles is a good thing. i do think it is a good thing to do because it makes them instantly usable and intuitive to learn. now i just wonder if the other korea companies like skyzen, zendo ad benQ will follow the trend of their two market leaders making this the default experience in touch screen smartphone to come from korea. i will try to look for phones of those companies in order to confirm it. if this phone manages to get a well reception just like the Omnia did. will the not korean phone companies copy the trend?.
