LG Optimus L7 II Dual unveiled, a dual-SIM dual-core droid

The LG Optimus L7 is getting a sequel with improved specs and dual-SIM capabilities to boot. The LG Optimus L7 II Dual updates the design a bit, going for a less angular look and has moved to capacitive keys only.

The regular Back / Home / Menu keys are joined by a SIM switch key for easy toggling between the two SIM cards.

The Optimus L7 II Dual keeps the 4.3” IPS LCD screen of the original but bumps up the CPU spec to 1GHz dual-core (of unknown architecture) and adds a better camera that shoots 8MP stills and 720p videos. The phone will run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean out of the box and comes with LG's home-brewed QSlide, QuickMemo and QuickTranslator software.

The battery has gotten a nice upgrade too – it has 2,460mAh capacity, which should last for two days according to LG.

The LG Optimus L7 II Dual will launch in the second half of February in Russia for 12,990 rubles ($430, but note that phones in Russia are usually pricier than in most other European countries). The phone will come in black and white.
