LG GD910 Watch Phone: Surprisingly good

CES 2009

We first saw the LG Watch Phone last year at CES 2008, but it was behind glass and no one was allowed to really see how it all worked. This year, however, LG plans to break it out of the display case. At the LG press conference yesterday, they demonstrated a real working prototype of the watch phone and it looks to be a real must-have for the spy wannabe in your life.

It has a touchscreen user interface (!), three side-mounted buttons, Bluetooth, a speakerphone, and even a full-blown music player. It's water-resistant, and it'll feature HSDPA.

It has tempered glass, a high-quality metal casing, and is around 13.9mm thick. The touch screen itself is 36mm diagonally, and features LG's Flash interface. Features include voice recognition, Text to Speech so it can read out text messages, and stereo Bluetooth.

The Watch Phone will be out in Europe at some stage, but pricing and availability are TBC.
