Although Alex didn't get the chance to look at the touchscreen of the LG Watch Phone while turned on, he was at least able to snap a few good photos of it while it was on display. Even if most of you aren't actually the James Bond type, this watch would allow you to pretend you are, with its integrated phone calling functions.


Of course, being an international spy requires a certain level of finesse and tact, which brings me to the dimensions of this watch phone's screen. Let's just say that a 1.43-inch screen on a watch is not quite what I had in mind when I mentioned the word finesse.

However, you have the possibility to use the LG GD910 together with a more discrete set of Bluetooth headsets, keeping the watch hidden under the suit’s sleeve.

The other option this watch/phone offers to users is via its speaker, which will immediately blow your cover, as well as the hearing aids of people sitting next to you.

For some interesting POV images, or so that you can make video calls with the LG GD910 Watch Phone, it comes equipped with a UMTS / VGA camera and I have already told you how you can see the other person. The 1.43-inch screen of this watch hides an MP3 player, which will play some music via Bluetooth.

It even supports the SMS function, so that it really fits the hybrid gadget category. This watch can be practical at one point or another in your life, or the ultimate geeky one any gadgeteer would wear on a day-to-day basis.

The call/end call buttons are on the side of the gimmick and seem very accessible. Also shaped towards the exterior of the watch, they seem large enough so that chubby people can use it too.

Has someone got this watch phone yet? I want to buy one, but I've heard many negative judgments about it. However, I still want one. I wonder if someone who has owned this phone can give it a retailed and objective judgement.
