Too Bad, LG’s Dual Sim Phone KS660 Won’t Be Coming to the US


LG Korea has announced what could be a great phone for everyone of us for the simple reason that is it an LG phone with dual-Sim support straight-out of the box without needing some modification or hacks. Whereas before to do, you’d either buy a dual sim-card holder and the solder it on your mobile phone, LG is making it easy with its KG 660 dual-sim phone. It is unfortunate though that LG is not (yet) keen on releasing the said phone to the international market.

The LG KS660 dual-sim phone which is expected to be released in China, Russia, a few other Russian satellite states and of course Korea, sports a 3-inch WQVGA display and a whooping 5 MP camera. It would have been a perfect business tool for everyone of us as it lets you accesss two lines, either your business line or personal line on the same handset.

The LG KS660 which we are hoping to be released other than the countries we mentioned would have the following specs and features:

* Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE (900/1800/1900 MHz)
* 5MP camera with autofocus, flash and video recording
* Measures 105mm x 55mm x 14.9mm
* Weighs 115g
* 50MB internal memory
* accelerometer
* microSDHC support

If you’ve been following our cellphone news coverage paying particular attention to specs and details, you’d immediately noticed that the LG KS660 seems to be lacking 2 important connectivity features - 3G and WiFi. Well, those seemed to be one downside to this phone. It would have been better if you could use to 3G connectivity features of two mobile carriers, right?

Anyway, the LG KS660 also features a stylus, so we expect it to have some sort of touchscreen features.

Again, we would like to reiterate, the LG KS660 could be a great carry-around mobile phone, if only LG would rethink about its plan of releasing the said handset to a limited market only, sometime in 1Q 2009.
