LG had earlier released dual SIM models of the Optimus L3 II (E425) and L5 II (E450) in India, and now, the South Korean giant has gone on to finally bring out the single SIM variants of these Android phones, with their price details reading Rs. 7,199 and Rs. 10,499, respectively. The company itself however, is listing both the devices slapped with higher tags of Rs. 8,000 and Rs. 11,500 on its website. Infibeam has started selling the former device, but the latter is still affixed with a ‘Coming Soon’ label.
These two handsets had first been unveiled during the Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona earlier this year. Following this, their dual SIM variants were quick to land in the country which is considered a haven for low-priced Android phones. A number of other handsets from the likes of Samsung, Sony as well as Micromax, Karbonn and more are ready to compete with the new phones in the nation.
The E425 is a small smartphone carrying a 3.2-inch QVGA IPS display on its 102.9mm x 61.3mm x 11.9mm frame. It features a 1,540mAh battery, and runs Android Jelly Bean v4.1 out of the box. A 3MP rear-facing camera, 4GB internal memory, a 1GHz processor, 512MB of RAM, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11 b/g/n are some of its other highlights. It can be bought now via Infibeam, and can be expected to start shipping within two to three days.
The E450 on the other hand, kicks in slightly advanced specifications. It touts a 4-inch screen on its body, and throws its visuals out with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels at 223ppi. A 5MP snapper has been granted to it, equipped with 4x digital zoom. This phone too offers Android Jelly Bean, aside from 4GB worth of internal memory and 512MB of RAM. It runs on a 1GHz processor, and its 1,700mAh Li-Ion battery is enough to keep it going for about 10 hours on a single complete charge. Its other additions include essentials like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and more.
All online as well as regular retails outlets should begin to offer the LG Optimus L3 II and L5 II soon at the values we’ve mentioned above.
