LG KB770 has DVB-T

Mobile Gazette has broken a story about the LG KB770, with the main headline being that there is a DVB-T tuner on-board. DVB-T means that the device can pick up free-to-air terrestrial broadcasts, which makes for cheap Mobile TV!

Quite apart from the tuner however, there are a number of other OK/impressive specs:

  • HSDPA-capable
  • 3″ touch screen
  • 3MP camera
  • Video capture: 320 x 240 pixels at 15 fps
  • MicroSD slot
  • Stereo Bluetooth
  • Weight: 109 grams

So we have a pretty reasonable phone, nice form factor, and reasonable specs – apparently in addition to that the price point will come in at UK-equivalent £360. I say equivalent, because it’s going on sale in Germany, SIM-free.

As Mobile Gazette neatly points out, a nicer name wouldn’t have gone amiss either….

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
