Photo leak shows LG LS730 “Snapshot”

posted by Charlene S. / Jun 06, 2012, 2:49 PM

Based on a new leak today, it looks like LG will be adding another device to Sprint’s portfolio this year. The device, the LG LS730 or “Snapshot”, is planned to launch in Q4 as a budget device. While we don’t know what the purported price point will be, judging from the specs, it should come in on the low end of the spectrum.

The Snapshot sports a classic black, square body with silver, metal trim. Under the hood it will feature a single core Qualcomm MSM8655 processor, 768MB of RAM, 4GB of ROM, Adreno 205 GPU, VGA front-facing camera, 5-megapixel rear camera, 1700mAh removable battery, and WVGA display. Sadly the Snapshot is lacking NFC, 4G LTE, and WiMax support.

While this device could be seen on Virgin, Boost, or Sprint, BriefMobile’s source is confident the Snapshot will make its debut on Sprint.

Thanks to our tipster for sending this in!

But it is a stupid waste of battery life.This would be a decent phone in the gsm world,though.

Another hideous phone from LG. The phone is hideous as is that UI.

Couldn't think of a better description for LG's UI. It IS just hideous. Icons look cartoony and tacky, and graphics are sloppy. They need to sort out their product design. Here in the UK it's like LG doesn't exist, since their products are ugly and have no USP's.

Looks like a Lucid with a physical home button and ICS, has similar specs as well.

wouldn't doubt with its almost 5" height the screen will be 4.5 to 4.6 inches

judging from e specs, this phone seems to be the US variant of the LG Optimus L7.. so it might sport a 4.3'' screen
