LG Esteem Leaked, Offers Up LTE Street Cred to MetroPCS
The LG Esteem has leaked out in all its Android glory on LG’s partner portal, and appears to be headed straight to MetroPCS. So what can MetroPCS users look forward to? The LG Esteem will be an LTE enabled device, and while it’s no Samsung Galaxy S II, it should still bring some LTE street cred to the notorious no contract carrier.
Highlighted device features include a 1Ghz Snapdragon processor, 512MB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage, front and rear-facing cameras (5-megapixel rear capable of doing 720P video, 1.3-megapixel front), a 4.3-inch LCD display, and a 1500mAh battery. If you’re just interested in the software, the LG Esteem will run on Android 2.3 Gingerbread and will feature LG’s Optimus UI running on top.
No pricing or availability details yet, but we’re betting MetroPCS customers will be more than willing to wait for this one.
Pricing is $249 AFTER the $100 mail in rebate. Available by Sept 28 in stores.
