LG had introduced its L-Series smartphones at the Mobile World Congress
(MWC) last year. It now seems that the company is looking at refreshing
some smartphones in this range. If grapevine is to be believed then LG
is all set to launch a successor to LG Optimus L7 in this month.
According
to a Russian website, hi-tech.mail.ru, this smartphone is expected to
be called LG Optimus L7 II Dual and will be launched in Russia sometime
this month for 12,990 rubles, which translates to roughly $433. Like the
name suggests, it will be a dual-SIM smartphone and be available in
black and white colour options. LG Optimus L7 II Dual will also have
'hot key', which will make it easier for the consumer to switch between
the SIMs.
The website further claims that the phone will feature a
4.3-inch IPS-display, 1GHz dual-core processor, 8-megapixel rear camera
and 2460 mAh battery. It is expected to have Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean)
on-board. As of now there is no word on which other markets will be
getting LG Optimus L7 II Dual.
Hopefully we might get to see this
device at the forthcoming MWC 2013. It is expected that the Korean
smartphone maker may announce a couple of new members in the L-Series at
the event. There are also speculations doing the rounds that LG may
launch a new F-series at MWC.
LG had recently announced LG Optimus
G Pro smartphone in Japan in collaboration with NTT DoCoMo. This
smartphones has a 5-inch screen with full-HD (1920x1080) display. It
comes with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean out of the box. There is a
13-megapixel rear snapper and a 2.4-megapixel front camera on-board. It
is likely that this device might be on display at the MWC.
