no sir you won’t get the cake for these kind of guess. if the marketing dept propose a 10k price on any of these phones, management will throw the entire team off the roof.
both the mobiles are quite similar. excellent WVGA resolution, huge 4GB storage, mediatek chipset? 15k will suite both of these actually.

BTW any idea how i can have that clock on my mobile? tried a few but not quite getting the look.

Both can’t be 15K. If the Fino is 15K, the Bello will be 20. You really believe they’re going to do that for phones specifically targeted at the emerging markets?

I actually believe that the 4.5″ Fino (probably with MTK 6589/M) is going to be priced at 7-8K retail (not MRP) if not lower and the 5″ Bello (with MTK 6582/M probably) will be around 12-14K max.

What clock? Is it in the video? Can’t watch videos because of limited connection. All Flash/swf content blocked from loading by default. 😉

spec wise it looks better than L70/80 which retails for 11-12k. 8k retail will be surprisingly good price but i seriously doubt LG will change. these 2 will still find buyers anyway due to looks inherited from G3.

ah crap. had GSMArena open on another tab. mixed up. sorry. i meant the LG stock circle clock.

don’t do it man. LG O1 is alive due to developer support. LG broke it with Android 2.3 update. recent LG devices has basically been dead in the water. instead go for 2nd gen Moto G. looks promising in the long run.
