Fashionistas around the world may soon ditch their iPhones in favor of the new LG Prada 3.0. LG is hoping to strike phone with its third Prada collaboration in five years. The first two Prada phones had to go toe-to-toe with the iPhone and were soundly beaten. Now, thanks to the popularity of Android, LG's new Prada phone may have a chance to make some noise.
The LG Prada 3.0 has a 4.3-inch NOVA display and runs off of the upgradeable Android 2.3.7 OS. The phone is iPhone 4S like in that it has an 8.0 megapixel camera and is all-black. The phone is unlike the iPhone 4S in that it only comes with 8GB of memory (expandable with memory cards) and is co-branded with one of the biggest fashion labels in the world. No word on pricing, but the LG Prada 3.0 is expected to drop sometime in January.
