LG KC780 will be LG's next cameraphone to be equipped with an 8 megapixel camera. This means good news for LG fans, since they will have yet another device that will enable them to take high quality photos.

While the whole 8 megapixel camera is nothing short of exciting news, everything else about this phone doesn't seem to get people fired up that much. This happens mostly because LG didn't take much interest in its design, so much so that the new handset can’t really stand out from the crowd.

The KC780 is a slide phone that, as seen in the photo, really doesn't have that certain something to make you go “wow.” Come to think of it, it actually looks kind of ordinary. As revealed on the FCC website, it has already gone through the paces and was approved for GSM1900 and Bluetooth emissions.

Other features of the phone, as put together from various other sources, include quad band GSM/GSM/GPRS and EDGE connectivity. No 3G on this one, it seems. It will also support a microSD card, which should add pretty nicely to the existent 140 MB of internal memory, and USB 2.0 connectivity, along with Bluetooth 2.0.

The only thing that really seems to stand out where this phone is concerned is the 8 megapixel camera with autofocus, red eye reduction, face recognition and 30fps video recording capabilities. No details regarding the resolution are available but, if we were to compare the LG KC780 with LG KC910 Renoir, since they both have an 8 megapixel camera, we should probably expect 3264 x 2448 pixels.

From the specs that have been made public so far, one can guess that this model was probably intended and designed as a midrange device. However, until it hits the market, this remains just a supposition. Unfortunately, no release date or pricing have been made available so far.

This is all the info found on the KC780 for the time being, but we hope that we'll be able to bring you more in a short while, so keep an eye on this space.
