I guess you can say that smartphones are pretty much similar in nature to movies, in the sense where sequels are always in store if a particular device does well in the market. Case in point, LG has had their moments in the mid-range and entry level markets with the LG Optimus L3, and I guess those smartphones performed well enough to warrant another attempt at this lucrative middle class market,by offering both the LG Optimus L4 and LG Optimus L4 Dual. Of course, these two are pretty much similar underneath the hood, although from the outside, things are very, very different so that it is easy to tell one apart from the other.
Running on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean alongside LG’s proprietary skin on top, these two handsets will run on a single-core MediaTek MT6575 1GHz Cortex-A9 processor, where it is aided by a PowerVR SGX531 GPU and 512MB RAM, accompanied by a 3.8-inch True IPS HVGA display, 4GB of internal memory, a 3-megapixel shooter with LED flash, and a 1,700 mAh battery. The Optimus L4 will cost around €135 when launched, while the Dual SIM version should be €10 more expensive. Regardless, both devices should roll out by the end of June 2013.
