Mobile phone carrier Vodafone Australia has just announced the upcoming availability of LG’s latest Prada phone on its airwaves.

The new Prada Phone by LG 3.0 is expected to arrive on shelves at the wireless operator sometime in April this year.

Although it has confirmed the phone’s landing, Vodafone has not offered specific info on the matter, nor on the price tag that the device might feature on its airwaves. However, it did say that these details would be unveiled in the coming weeks.

“Styled with PRADA’s clean and sharp design philosophy, the handset features a full touchscreen to the front and PRADA’s signature Saffiano pattern to the back, all finished in classic black,” Vodafone Australia notes.

“With every detail designed for chic simplicity, this handset also boasts LG’s signature Floating Mass Technology, optically enhancing the thinness of its already impressive 8.5mm depth, with minimal hardkeys completing the sleek simple finish.”

The specifications list of this mobile phone includes a 4.3-inch touchscreen display that can deliver a WVGA (800 x 480) resolution and an 800-nit brightness.

The smartphone is powered by a 1.0GHz Dual-Core application processor, complemented by 1GB of Dual Channel RAM.

Moreover, the new device features 8GB of internal memory, and a 1540mAh battery for extended usage time. The Prada phone by LG 3.0 is powered by Google’s Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system.

The smartphone will also provide users in Australia with fast access to thousands of applications and games available for download via the Android Market. Not to mention that it offers support for the various services that Google came up with for its Android users.

“The PRADA phone by LG 3.0 offers a specially created user interface featuring a unique black, grey and white menu and icons,” the wireless carrier also explains.

“Through this interface users can enjoy all the latest benefits of Android’s Gingerbread OS, with a future scheduled upgrade to Android’s Ice Cream Sandwich later in 2012.”
