And the LG Revolution, which we were impressed with since CES 2011 where we took it for a hands-on preview, is apparently getting ready to be launched next week on May 26.
Just earlier today Verizon officially launched the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, another Android smartphone scheduled for a May 26 release, so it seems that next Thursday is going to be a very busy day in Verizon stores especially since the Droid X2 is also expected to start selling on the same day.
The LG Revolution is another great smartphone coming from LG, after the LG Optimus 2x / T-Mobile G2x, which has already been launched. The phone will offer you a 4.3-inch touchscreen display, 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 5-megapixel camera with HD video recording support, 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, 16GB pre-installed memory, HDMI and DLNA support, 4G Mobile Hotspot, 4G LTE support, Android 2.2 Froyo with LG UI on top, Netflix support and wireless charging capabilities.
We have no pricing details for the handset yet, and we expect Verizon to make them public in the coming days. The Thunderbolt and the Droid Charge cost $249.99 and $299.99, on contracts, respectively, so we would assume the Revolution will make no exception from being priced differently, considering its LTE capabilities. The phone’s full price seems to be $699.99, according to a Best Buy leak, although most of you will probably want to get the device with a new two-year contract instead of paying the full price tag.
So, Android fans, what smartphone will you purchase next Thursday? The LG Revolution, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play or the Motorola Droid X2?
