The LG KU990 or LG KE990 (known and marketed as the LG Viewty) is a 3.5G touchscreen smartphone by LG Electronics, announced on August 23, 2007 and then released in Europe and Asia. A high-end model at the time of its release, the Viewty had a resistive touchscreen and was specially marketed for its camera due to its powerful camera features. The Viewty had a high gloss black look similar to the previous LG Prada, although it was also released in many other colours. In South Korea, it was known as the Beauty Phone (Korean: 뷰티폰).
