LG and DivX, Inc. today announced their partnership to enable a high-quality consumer media experience with the new 5.0 mega-pixel digital camera phone LG Viewty. The DivX Mobile Certified LG Viewty supports DivX playback. The LG Viewty enables consumers to easily playback a wide range of DivX files from the PC on the go or output to a TV monitor without converting to another format. Consumers can also view DivX files from popular online video communities such as Stage6.com at ten times the speed of WCDMA through the HSDPA 3.6 high speed internet access capability. DivX is a widely popular digital media format that enables consumers to create, share and playback high-quality video content across an ecosystem of platforms and devices.

The super sleek and stylish LG Viewty is the first in LG’s new line of high technology handsets and boasts a number of ‘world first’ features never seen before on a mobile handset, including 120 fps video recording as well as unique camera functionality such as manual focus, image stabilizer and handwriting. LG Viewty will go on sale from mid-October starting from Europe and on to other regions.
