LG Thrill 4G
with the advancements in 3D technology many companies have started to find better simpler ways of providing you with a 3D experience. Nintendo came out with the Nintendo 3Ds and now phones like the HTC has unveiled the New EVO 3D, a follow-up to Sprint Nextel’s breakout smartphone. It has a 4.3-inch touchscreen, which can display eye-popping 3-D without needing glasses. Users will also be able to capture photos and videos in 3-D using a pair of cameras on the back. Even LG is making Life Good with their phone, that’s expected to come in later in the year, and it will even be able to take 3D photos using the 5 Mega pixel camera. Nothing to fancy you may say, but consider the following, while we do have 10MP cameras on the Droid Incredible or other phones from Samsung, the actual 3d technology is fairly new, this would be a fun phone to have. 
But hold on to your money until the next generation of 3D phones come out. Like any other piece of Technology, the first batch is usually the most faulty, and usually the ones that cost the most money. Remember when the LCD T.V.s came out? at $2500 for a 20 inch? same thing is going to happen to these phones.
3D phones are going to be great and all, look at the 3D TVs available today, most of them offer the 3D capabilities but they don’t have the content to provide the 3D, the same thing is going to happen at first with the phones, while the phone can play 3D animation, and games/movies getting the games, and the movies is another story. Nintendo 3Ds is making the console, and now they have to partner with the content providers to provide the games and the movies.  Instead of being at the mercy of Hollywood studios to bring 3-D content, why don’t we enable our customers to create their own 3-D content?” Jang said. Google’s YouTube team also helped LG tweak the quality of the videos produced by the phone, he said.
Omar Khan, the strategy chief for Samsung Telecommunications, said mobile devices will be more valuable in the 3-D space as a way to capture content in that format, rather than to view it. “I think it’s still pretty early,” he said.
