The mobile phone market is doing well despite the poor economy, particularly in the smartphone segment. There is also a market for devices that aren’t smartphones but offer lots of features and are centered on messaging.
Specifications for the LG LX290 have been provided to us by Sprint and the device looks to be a solid phone for those looking to keep in touch. The handset will be available on the Sprint network and features a sliding design, access to email, and text messages.
Other features include a 2.5mm headphone jack, which means your headphones probably won’t fit. The device is GPS-enabled and supports email form AOL, Yahoo, and Windows Live. The device can record and send voice messages. The handset measure 4.09-inches x 1.94-inches x 0.63-inches and weighs 3.6 ounces. The screen is a 1.33 x 1.77-inch TFT with a resolution of 240 x 320. Pricing and availability are not known.
Sprint has also released a new color version of the
BlackBerry Curve 8330: Inferno (which is actually some sort of orange).
The Inferno
BlackBerry Curve 8330 costs $49.99 with a 2-yr contract agreement and after a $100 mail-in rebate. Like the LG LX290, the new Curve can be bought both online and from Sprint’s retail locations.
Of course, you can always buy the brand new BlackBerry Tour instead.
