Viliv S5 launch party pics.

Posted on 24 December 2008 by



Not much to read on the linked article below but there are some nice pics from the Yukyung Viliv S5 launch party. Welcome to one of the first XP-based MIDs (or is it a UMPC!) I’m eager to get my hands on the Viliv S5 for a full test ASAP. Images via the Korean website below.

    Okay Chippy… you know I’ve been lurking with a bag of money burning a hole in my pocket… the S5 looks real compelling as the “straight right” in a 1-2 punch of netbook and mid (both on XP!!)… When will Europe be seeing this and should I pull the trigger!

    Chippy, quick question, in one of the pics, how come when the screen resolution is at WSVGA, it scales down to 256k color? Are all screens with WSVGA resolution between 3.5″ to 4.8″ 256k color? I have a feeling this is due to a battery consumption issue.

    Here is a more detail preview:

    Also, about the screen resolution, I think the screen’s native resolution is 800 x 480, and it interpolates to 1024 x 600, similar to the HTC shift. Please correct me if I am wrong.
