OVERVIEW:

The LG Prada 3.0 apparently features "floating mass technology", which we can only interpret as being skinny. Like a Prada model, it's only 8.5mm thick, with a sleek design, but boasting a fully-loaded dose of tech on the inside. The phone measures 127.5 x 69 x 8.5mm.

With a 4.3-inch 800 x 480 Nova display, it appears to pick up some of the display technology we saw in the Optimus Black. It's also rated at a whopping 800 nits, super bright, so it should be easy to read the display in the midday sun of St Tropez, Milan or Portofino..
