LG Optimus Slider Prepaid Phone by Virgin Mobile Review
Looking for an inexpensive, entry-level Android smartphone that is full of features and easy to use out of the box? Look no further than the LG Optimus Slider prepaid phone from Virgin Mobile! Customer reviews have been positive in favor of this phone which is currently sold online at websites such as Amazon.com.
We discovered the LG Optimus Slider by Virgin Mobile while seeking out some of the latest and greatest smartphones to feature. Android smartphones have become popular in the last couple of years, possibly because the age of technology has taken over, and consumers want the best gadgets available. Unfortunately, Android devices often come at a price — literally! Many wireless providers charge a premium data feature fee for customers who have an Android device. So what is the solution to these fees?
The LG Optimus Slider Prepaid Phone by Virgin Mobile made the list of great Android smartphone for the folks here at Android Chatter, because it isn’t as devastating to the bank account as some of the other high end models being offered up by major wireless providers. The LG Optimus Slider by Virgin Mobile is a great Android smartphone, with some awesome features, and since it is prepaid, it doesn’t carry all the extra premium data fees along with it. No baggage!
Now on to the good stuff! Not that saving money isn’t good, but we speak of the bells and whistles on the LG Optimus Slider by Virgin Mobile. The device sound has vibration, MP3 and WAV ringtones. Additionally LG Optimus Slider sports a loudspeaker and a 3.5 mm jack for ear buds. The LG Optimus memory is internal with 512 MB of Ram 512 MB of ROM, and it has a microSD slot expandable memory up to 32 GB, which comes in handy for storing that extensive music library, photos, videos and other files. Don’t lie… you know you have all that on your Android phone!
Speaking of photos, the LG Optimus Slider has a 3.2 MP, with 2048 x 1536 pixels, complete with Geo-tagging and video capabilities. Though considered an entry level smartphone, it’s nice because it can be prepaid through Virgin Mobile’s plan.
Don’t just take our word for it though, see more of the positive customer reviews at Amazon.com!
Samsung Galaxy S3 Release Date and Specs Update
The latest on the Samsung Galaxy S3 release date is still a bouncing back and forth fiasco between several dates, and still no confirmation of the release from the manufacturer or prospective wireless providers. Thus far, the only set-in-stone information on the Galaxy S3 is that it will indeed launch in 2012. Hopefully sooner than later for the sake of all the Android groupies who are awaiting the launch as if life depends on it.
Now for specs! Samsung finally quashed the highly circulating rumors which said the Samsung Galaxy S3 would include3D technology. They actually released a statement about not having plans for any 3D technology in upcoming smartphones. Oh well, one can dream… right? As far as other specs, Samsung is again keeping things mostly under wraps, but all the speculation has lead to some pretty good guesses at what may be in store.
The rumors run rampart with possible specs including, a 4.65-inch screen with a resolution of 720×1,280, a Super AMOLED Plus display, a 1.5GHz chip with 2GB RAM, a 12-mp camera, and an exterior much like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Also, it will apparently have Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich for the OS.
Perhaps Samsung will soon, at the very least, confirm some specs for all the consumers who are awaiting the Samsung Galaxy S3 release date.

Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Release Date — 4G Touch Handset Coming Soon
Anyone in the market for a new Android smartphone will be happy to know the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic release date is near. The dual-core device will be available on September 16th for $199. At least Android junkies have something to ogle while waiting on the Motorola Droid Bionic release date.

Motorola Droid Bionic Release Rumors: Will Android Fans Lose Interest?
While Motorola has stated the Droid Bionic is set for a Summer release, is it possible Bionic fans will begin to lose interest? Consider the fact that the Bionic was set for a second-quarter release date, but then Motorola snatched the device back to rip out the insides and update the components.
This has surely disgruntled at least a portion of the Android fans out there. Also, the Droid Charge is looking quite popular right about now, and many who were waiting on the Bionic seemed to have jumped to a different Android smartphone baby.
Okay Verizon Wireless and Motorola; It’s time to step up the game before the players get bored and move on! Of course, the people here at Android Chatter will remain faithful until the end, but that is just what we do.
***Update***
An article at IBTimes says new information has been revealed by Motorola via Twitter, but thus far no such information can be located by Android Chatter. We will update as we find any new Droid Bionic info.
