LG Optimus L9 announced, completes the L-series

Completing the L-series from LG is the Optimus L9, a 4.7″ Android ICS smartphone that was announced almost a day after the Optimus G.

LG is positioning the L-Series as a lifestyle handset so it’s not heavy on the specs but fairly affordable.

This is the reason why the Optimus L9 might not be considered a flagship handset but the large IPS display in a decent hardware might be compelling as long as the price is right.

LG Optimus L9 specs:
4.7-inch IPS LCD display
1.0GHz dual-core processor
1GB RAM
up to 32GB via microSD card
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
2,150mAh SiO+ battery
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
131.9 x 68.2 x 9.1mm (dimensions)
125 grams (weight)

While the specs is not yet complete, what’s notable with the L9 is the large-capacity battery and the 1GB RAM.
