LG Optimus L9 announced on T-Mobile

Rumors have become fact – we spotted the LG Optimus L9 with T-Mobile livery just under a week ago, and today, we have the official announcement from T-Mobile concerning the availability of the LG Optimus L9 that will be happening later this fall. Measuring a mere 0.36” thin while sporting a 4.5” qHD display, the LG Optimus L9 will be powered by the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, in addition to LG QuickMemo, which was described as a “powerful note-taking tool that lets users add commentary, notes, and drawings to screenshots with a few swipes of a finger.”

The 1GHz dual-core processor clearly places this in the midst of mid-range smartphones, as there are no quad-cores to boast about, and the speed does not go beyond 1GHz (although I am quite sure that it can be overclocked), while the 5-megapixel camera with LED flash is also pretty much ordinary. At least the battery is larger in terms of capacity at 2,150 mAh, with Wi-Fi calling supported. No idea on pricing, but T-Mobile said that the LG Optimus L9 will be available this fall.
