LG has announced a new budget Android smartphone. Called the LG Optimus Me, it's a small touchscreen slate bearing a youth-oriented design.
Set to be released in a variety of colors (the product photos show it in black, blue, gray, pink and red), the handset is supposed to be even cheaper than the already budget-friendly LG Optimus One. Compact and styled with rounded corners, it sports 113.5 x 59 x13.3 mm dimensions, with a weight of 130 g.
Like many low-end Android devices, the LG Optimus Me comes with a smallish display of unspecified size (most likely, this is between 2.8 and 3.0 inches, though). Instead of the usual 320 x 240 pixel resolution, though, this one gets a bump up at 480 x 320 pixels. Other details include a 3.0 megapixel camera module, aGPS, WiFi, 3G with HSPA, Bluetooth 2.1, 140MB of internal storage and microSD card expansion.
No word on the Android version, but sources gander it will likely ship with Android 2.2 Froyo. The phone will come with a 1,500 mAh battery, rated at five hours of talk time and a little under 19 days of standby.
There's no specific release date or pricing, as of now, for the LG Optimus Me. With the MWC fast coming up, though, we're sure the rest of the details should be filled in soon enough.
