According to Crave the LG GT500 Touchscreen phone will be available in the UK via T-Mobile. The LG GT500 is a neat mid range phone for those on a budget. Along with the 3 inch 240 x 400 pixels screen it has GPS and a 5 megapixel camera.
The LG GT500 was announced at the CommunicAsia expo in Singapore recently and as expected will soon be available in the UK via T-Mobile. The phone will be free for those on a £25 month contract which is a really good deal. If you have iPhone envy but can’t afford the large monthly bills, maybe this LG will help.
The GT500 has a whole boat load of features including WisePilot navigation software and built-in GPS, Accelerometer sensor for UI auto-rotate, 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, LED flash, and Geo-tagging, Wi-Fi b/g, Bluetooth and of course and MP3/MPEG4 player.
On the connectivity side the GT500 supports 3G as well as WiFi so it should be easy to connect and use the Internet while out and about and also when near a WiFi hotspot. The phone also supports bluetooth v2.0 and A2DP (A2DP allows your music to be sent wirelessly to a set of stereo earphones/headphones).
The phone doesn’t come with much internal memory but the memory capabilities are expandable via a Micro SD (Secure Digital) slot which means you can but 8GB in the phone relativity cheaply.
Digital cameras are the norm in mid to high range phones today and the GT500 is no exception with a 5 megapixel camera capable of taking 2592 x 1944 pictures. It also has autofocus, digital zoom and an LED flash. Since the phone has a GPS receiver it also supports geotagging.
The GT500 should appear on the T-Mobile website soon.
