HTC HD7 India price drop

Just last week in my earlier post I had written about flipkart offering HTC HD7 with 1 Year India Warranty for Rs. 31790. It seems the price drop has already begun with flipkart offering the same mobile now for Rs. 30599 which is a drop of Rs. 1200. Another noticeable change is its immediate availability indicated by "Buy This Now" while last week it was "Preorder Now".




Whats interesting to note is that on ebay.in one of the seller is offering HTC HD7 for Rs. 28990 which is a whopping Rs. 2800 cheaper than what flipkart was offering last week.



This is surely an excellent buy considering HTC HD2 with 1 Year India warranty and which comes with 8GB memory is available for approximately Rs. 24000 while HTC HD7 comes with a 16GB memory. If you are hoping for a further price reduction you will have to wait till February 2011 by when both Samsung Omnia 7 and LG Optimus 7 should be available.

LG Optiums 7 launching this month in India

HTC has already beaten both Samsung and LG to become the first handset manufacturer to launch Windows Phone 7 in India. HTC HD7 is available for Pre-Order on flipkart and delivery is expected from 15th December 2010.

In its press release on the launch event of LG Optimus One last month following information about LG Optimus 7 was mentioned.

LG Optimus 7 – coming soon

Another phone to create waves in the international market is the LG’s Windows® phone 7 device – Optimus 7. A direct result of LG and Microsoft’s close work together in the smartphone market, the LG Optimus 7 series offers the glance and go experience of Windows Phone 7 combined with unique features only available on the LG devices. These compelling applications — the DLNA-based Play To, augmented reality (AR) and Voice-to-Text — are available as Live Tiles on Windows Phone 7 and can be accessed via integrated “Hubs”. The phone allows users to enjoy a new era of entertainment through the introduction of Microsoft’s popular Xbox LIVE® and Zune® services. The advanced 5MP camera offers a host of technological enhancements from LG such as Intelligent Shot, which lets users, take the perfect photo without having to adjust camera settings and Panoramic Mode for stitching together a full 360-degree landscape scene. It has 3.8 inch WVGA LCD and 16GB of internal memory.


Going by the above excerpt and also with HTC launching HTC HD7 it is quite likely that LG will launch its Optimus 7 phone this month.
