LG KC550 – affordable 5 megapixel cameraphone

I’ve no idea when LG announced the KC550, but it was just recently we’ve spot it around the web.

First let’s talk about price. For 179.95 GBP (about $356) on Expansys, you get a sexy, 14.3 mm thin slider which boasts a 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus. In addition, the tri-band device (GSM 900/1800/1900 + EDGE) also packs a QVGA screen, stereo Bluetooth support, FM radio, media player, and of course a microSD memory slot. But that’s not all, just like the big boys (Sony Ericsson (NYSE: SNE) K850i, W910i and the iPhone), the KC550 also packs an accelerometer and even comes with few games that support the use of it!

Lack of 3G may be a deal breaker for some folks, but $350 can’t buy you much more, can it?
