LG officially releases Prada 3.0 handset

Tech-savvy fashionistas finally have a reason to rejoice with the official release of LG’s Prada 3.0 handset.

With it’s 4.3-inch WVGA NOVA display, 1 GHz dual-core processor, and 8-megapixel camera, the Prada 3.0 is a solid little package, but one that’s a bit lacking considering its premium price tag. The Prada 3.0 goes back to the strictly candybar form factor of its forebear, and despite design language similar to the Lumia 800.

The device costs 899,900 won (or nearly $780).

LG recently outed the Prada as one of the company’s first devices to receive the Ice Cream Sandwich update. It won’t be long before the Prada 3.0 starts its world tour - the device will hit Europe and the rest of Asia in January - but there’s no word yet on U.S. availability, TechCrunch reported.
