LG Optimus L3 E400 - Why bother?


The first phones being announced at the Mobile World Congress 2012, which we are likely to see in Philippine shores are from LG. The entry level model announced, the LG L3 E400 is available for shipping now. 

The LG L3 E400 is an Android powered phone with a 3.2 inch with a low 240 x 320 resolution. Samsung Galaxy Y, released early in the second half of 2011 is not particularly spectacular phone. Its main draw is its Php5,990 price. But it is 2012 now, and we were expecting every Android to be launched this year to come with at least a 320 x 480 screen resolution. The LG L3 E400 will run on Android 2.3 and is not likely to be getting updated to Android 4.0.

The other details on this phone are scant, but what we know so far makes similar to Samsung popular Galaxy Y. The phone is powered by an 800MHz processor has a 3.15 MP primary camera and no secondary camera.

With all kinds of interesting phones available at below 6K these days like Alcatels Dual Sim Blaze Glory 918N which has a higher resolution 320 x 480 screen, the LG L3 E400 would have to be priced really low, at much less than 5K if it is going to get any interest.

So unless this phone comes out at a price the absolutely floor us, this phone is something likely to be forgotten soon.
