Anything Samsung can do...

The LG KC910

We have a theory here at TechRadar that LG and Samsung are one and the same mobile phone manufacturer, and that's an idea backed up by the imminent release of the KC910.

OK, they're probably not the same, but the handsets they produce are remarkably similar in spec and shape... AND they're both from South Korea, so you can see our thinking.

KC910... that's a bit too normal for you, LG

The KC910 (likely to get a stupid name akin to the Viewty) boasts an 8MP camera with a 2.8-inch (ish) touchscreen, which at least sets it apart from the recently released Samsung i8510, the other Koreans' 8MP effort.

The rest of the stats seem pretty much as you might expect... Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HSDPA connectivity and the ability to munch MicroSD cards up to 8GB (the Viewty could only manage 2GB, much to the ire of its owners).

Likely landing around Christmas time if the usual timeline is followed... let's see how LG continues at the front of the touchscreen market.

1. If that pictures anything to go buy you could be right! That looks rather similar to the Samsung Tocco SGH-F480.

Anyway, this looks to be a brilliant phone.

If it is what we here about.

I hope this is like the iPhone (if not better) but with a decent camera and extra features.

It's when you hear about this like this, you just wonder "Is there an end to how great mobile phones can be?!"

Makes me think the iPhone could be trailing behind. When will we reach the peak of what we can squeeze out of these tiny devices?
