The LG VS750 is a worldly concern phone: global roaming for the States volition be handled by EVDO Rev.A, and quadband GSM with UMTS/HSPA for the ease of the worldly concern (mostly). So, it’s running Windows Mobile 6.5.3, which agency it’s only slightly better than 6.5. But, when we get to the physical characteristics is when we beginning to lose our faith in the French telephone. We’re looking at a 3.2-inch resistive touchscreen; 3.2MP photographic camera with VGA transcription; WiFi b/g; with 512MB of flash memory and 256MB of RAM. It’s also got a MicroSD card one-armed bandit, where you can expand the computer memory to 16GB. It’s also got a full, QWERTY keyboard that slides out.

We’re not expression that this is a bad phone; but we are just expecting more. Considering how well capacitive touchscreens employment in general, coupling it with Windows Mobile River 6.5.3 seems like the right field thing to do. And while it’s great that Verizon Wireless will be including a stylus in the package, we hatred exploitation them. So . . . Just give us better touchscreens. Oh, and while you’re looking at that picture, please short letter the 3 buttons. Yes, this agency that the buttons won’t be the understanding this gimmick gets excluded from a Windows Phone 7 Series rise. It’s that screen, along with the slow processor that we’re sure is powreing this thing. So, if you’re hoping to get this and then eventually see an rise to the flashy new OS later this year, this is not the device you wish to choice up. You’ve been warned.

Of course of action, it still has that whole thing “N97″ nickname, which we’re sure is bringing some people down all over the worldly concern. It doesn’t damage that it’s a better phone than its big brother, but distillery, sometimes those shadows extend pretty far.

Unfortunately, from what we can tell, there’s not much changed on this variant of the mini. Yes, there is a optical maser-etched symbolization on the backrest of the phone, and it does have a great gas alloy finish to it, but we’re thinking that’s not enough. After all, the RAOUL variant was pretty intense. There’s a few goodies in the box, though. Like some Team Oakley stuff. Other than that, not much. But, if you’re a buff of Oakley (or Nokia), and want a earphone that stands out above the rest, then this is a great means to make that happen. Start scouring those online auction sale sites, ladies and gentlemen, these ar saltation to go quick.
