LG L-03C snaps 12-megapixel photos, makes phone calls

Summary: A phone with a camera or a camera that can make phone calls? That is the question when it comes to defining the identity of the LG L-03C.

A phone with a camera or a camera that can make phone calls? That is the question when it comes to defining the identity of the LG L-03C.

The retro design is even two-faced, with one side revealing a Pentax 1:2.6-5.5 lens with 3x optical zoom, while the other sports a 3-inch touch screen with an 800 x 480 resolution.

Additional need-to-know specs include support for 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS. But the LG L-03C almost solidifies itself as a camera with phone capabilities thanks to the 720p HD video recording function, a max ISO of 3200 and the 12.1-megapixel CCD sensor.

Pricing is unknown, but Engadget reports that the LG L-03C will roll out in Japan in January. Unfortunately, there are no clues as to whether or not this beauty will make it to the United States.

A camera phone at a workplace can get very too contraversary; it's opening way too much of a debate and the debate can get heated up overtime.
