Well, today LG KC780 "8 megapixel Portrait Phone" is officially here.
LG KC780 looks pretty good, but, except for the 8 megapixel camera, is not that impressive. Absence of 3G , Wi-Fi and GPS sensors - a must for the today's high end phones - make for that.
It seems that our guess that LG KC780 is targeted towards mid tier marketplace was correct.
