LG today announced the global launch of the F70 Android smartphone, which it first revealed at Mobile World Congress in February. The F70 is very similar to the F90, which is branded as the Volt for Sprint. The F70 features a 4.5-inch WVGA screen, quad-core 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with 1GB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage, and a 5-megapixel/VGA camera configuration. The F70 comes with support for HSPA+ and LTE networks, as well as Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi, GPS, and NFC. It features a handful of LG user interface functions, such as Knock Code, Guest Mode, and Quick Window. LG said the F70 will reach Europe in May, followed by Asia, Central and South America, and North America later. No U.S. carriers have formally announced support for the F70.
