LG Ally says Aloha at Verizon

May 3rd, 2010

We can’t find any details on Verizon’s website about the LG Ally (aka Aloha) but all the rumours are indicating it’ll be available from them on the 20th of May. Originally named Aloha, the LG LU2300 slider handset sports a SnapDragon CPU and a 3.5 inch AMOLED touchscreen. Here are the full details for you Verizon and LG fans out there

* 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD8250
* 3.5-inch AMOLED touchscreen at 480×800 pixels
* QWERTY keyboard
* Android 2.1
* 720p video out
* 5MP camera
* D-pad
* RAM capacity 512 MB
* ROM capacity 512 MB
* Mono speaker
* 3.5 mm audio jack
* Networks GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS900, UMTS2100
* microSD, microSDHC, TransFlash expansion slots
* USB 2.0 client, 480Mbit/s micro-USB
* 802.11b, 802.11g connectivity

No news on a price tag yet, but we would imagine it’ll be on the cheap side. The unit sports all the expected bells and whistles but on the looks front we just think it’s a bit, well, ugly. Brushed metal on the keyboard and the D-pad on the front of the unit? Just not quite what we expected from the usually stylish LG boffins. Oh well, may be the price tag will make it more attractive, guess we’ll find out on the 20th of the month.
