LG has launched the Prada II phone for the Asian market. The Prada II has already been launched in Europe in November and sold already in more that 50,000 units by the end of January. The Prada II is an improved version of the first Prada. It comes with 3G, WiFi, Bluetooth, a 3-inch capacitive WQVGA touchscreen and a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard. There’s also a 5 megapixel camera, a microSD slot for memory upgrade, haptic feedback and an active flash menu system. The phone costs around 600 Euro in Europe so we might expect a similar price in various Asian markets.

It was just about time LG launched the Prada II, and so they did! Here we have it. It is of course designed in that same way. But enough of that, let me tell you something about its features, because there sure is something to talk about: 3G via HSDPA, WiFi support, a 3-inch capacitive WQVGA touchscreen and a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard. There’s also a 5 megapixel camera and a second camera for video calls, a microSD card slot, haptic feedback and active flash menu system.

The Prada Link watch can be bundled with the phone for just $867 over in Europe for now. The watch has a 0.9 inch 120 x 56 OLED display, Bluetooth and a leather strap.

Those of you who were waiting the LG Prada II this month, guess again. It’s not coming yet. LG has delayed it with at least a few weeks. So start looking elsewhere for your next perfect Christmas gift.

Here’s what the LG Prada II will bring you once it hits the market:

• Quad-band GSM/EDGE, dual-band HSDPA (850MHz/2100MHz)
• 3 inch display at 240 × 400 resolution
• 5 megapixel autofocus camera with flash and VGA recording
• Bluetooth 2.1 connectivity
• Wi-Fi b/g connectivity
• Infineon MP-EH + M180 chipset
• Integrated motion sensor
• Built-in FM radio

The much anticipated LG KF900 is soon to be available in the US. The phone was released a few days ago but hasn’t been available in the US yet. But now, it seems as though the wait is over as FCC has approved the retailing of the LG KF900. The  LG KF900 is the successor of the  extremely popular LG Prada phone. This time some fancy features come to compliment the exquisite looks of the designer phone. And believe it or not the only difference in design is the addition of a QWERTY keyboard.

The new 3G HSDPA LG handset features besides the new keyboard a 5MP camera with Schneider Kreuzach lens, 3 inch WQVGA 400×240px touchscreen, Wi-fi, Prada ring-tones, FM tuner, TV out, Bluetooth, media player, and Bluetooth.

In case you liked the first Prada phone from LG then you’ll definitely enjoy its successor too. The Prada II is almost similar to its predecessor but it has a very useful slide-out, full QWERTY, thin keyboard. Besides that, the touchscreen device comes equipped with 3G via HSDPA, video calling, a full HTML browser, a 5 megapixel camera with Schneider-Kreuznach certified lens and WiFi connectivity.

The new Prada will be available in Italy, UK, France, Germany, Spani and the Netherlands some time in Q4 2008 and it’s going to cost you 600 Euro or about $815. Intersted?

Remember the LG Prada phone? It’s updated, enhanced version - which, by the way, is not confirmed - is already making people sit up and take notice. According to the rounds doing the Internets, the phone, dubbed Prada II, will feature a 5 megapixel auto-focus camera and a wide QVGA display with touch capability.

As far as cell phone networks go, this one can happily work on 850/2100MHz as well as HSDPA. The thing is also supposed to bundle an FM radio and WiFi on board.

The LG Prada could be considered a wannabe competitor for the iPhone. Smarter than a regular (LG) phone but not even close to the iPhone. And as Apple prepares for 3G and more it’s only logical that LG wants and has to keep up.

Apparently LG has a successor for Prada, the Prada II, supposed to be launched in late Q4 2008, and from the info that leaked so far it will be worth considering.

• The new LG Prada II Cellphone is said to offer:
• 3-inch WQVGA touchscreen - 400×240 resolution
• 5MP built in camera
• front camera for video calls
• Wi-Fi connectivity
• HTML full browser
• FM radio
• 7.2 mbps HSPDA
• micro SDHC support
• USB 2.0
• TV out
• full Qwerty slide out keyboard

What would you choose? The upcoming new iPhone or the Prada II?
