Word has just landed that the LG Viewty II will hit the UK in June. The news trickled through Orange that the 8-megapixel snapping, 3-inch WVGA touchscreen device was to get a Q2 release and it’s since been refined as just two months’ time.

The original Viewty, which is still available, is one the most successful handsets to come out of the company quickly pushing their way up the mobile phone ladder and this handset with its 32GB storage and 3D LG Arena-like interface could be their next big push in the mould of the Chocolate, the Cookie and the first Viewty itself.

No word on price or network exclusivity as yet but expect news soon as the companies involved look to settle the talk.

Those European mobloggers of ours have been busy with their LG Viewty handsets, sending in snaps of graffiti in the Netherlands, a French rainbow and our Spanish moblogger has even posted some pics of him dressed as a hippy, Superman and a Viking. Glad someone’s got some time on his hands…!

All across Europe, people are sniffling over the sold-out LG Viewty

iphone-LG-Viewty.jpgWe’ve all heard about the Viewty handset from LG, and it’s reputed iPhone killing skillz, why, I bet we’ve all heard the story about when the two met in that dive bar down in Hackney and the carnage caused by the spec’d up Viewty. Well. It appears the general public thinks the phone is pretty special too, as it’s sold out in Europe in less than a month.
