LG Optimus F7 (LG870) coming to Boost Mobile


Recommended Posts

Posted

Yesterday the LG VS870 passed the FCC headed to Verizon with support for their LTE 700MHz C Block. On November 9, 2012 the LG MS870 passed thru the FCC with support for LTE bands 2, 4, & 25, and is heading to Metro PCS & Cricket, and still includes support for Sprint's LTE band.

If history is any indication, the LG model 840 phone was released on Metro PCS as the Connect, Verizon as the Lucid, and Sprint as the Viper, so the 870 model could be coming to Sprint soon.

Thanks. And it doesn't have SVDO either.

 

On the HAC key feature letter, it lists that it will have Bluetooth 4.0 & 1x Advanced. It also lists CDMA835? What is that? Is that a new way to designate CDMA Band class 10?

You can keep knocking on that door, Josh, but SVDO doesn't live here anymore.

No, that is band class √100.

Hey, I don't miss SVDO, and with the iPhone I won't have SVLTE, but I think I'll survive.

 

As for the square root of 100, hahaha. Nice try to trick me, lol

LG870 passed the FCC today with ERP/EIRP ratings listed below:

BC10, 1xRTT 25.06 dBm

BC0, 1xRTT 26.60 dBm

BC1, 1xRTT 26.53 dBm

BC10, EVDO A 25.20 dBm

BC0, EVDO A 26.26 dBm

BC1, EVDO A 26.16 dBm

LTE 3MHz QPSK 25.11 dBm

LTE 3MHz 16QAM 24.71 dBm

LTE 5MHz QPSK 24.93 dBm

LTE 5MHz 16QAM 24.35 dBm

LTE 10MHz QPSK 24.38 dBm

LTE 10MHz 16QAM 24.70 dBm

 

Rumor had this as possibly the Boost FX1, based off the LG Optimus L7.

 

Prelim specs are Wifi ABGN 2.4GHz & 5GHz because of the FCC filing, NFC.

 

SVLTE only. And LTE hotspot over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only.

Update: Sprint & Boost officially announced June 27th availability of the LG Optimus F7 (LG870) for $299.99 plus tax. Hopefully an update to the Wall article will happen today.

 

Here is a direct link to Sprint's article, and to LG's official LG870 page.

Hey, your prediction took only six months to come true. I have a prediction, too. In six months, the weather will be cold. And you can take that to the bank.

 

:P

This phone actually looks very nice for a mid range phone.  Specs look comparable to the Galaxy S3.

Just purchased this phone and compared it side by side to a display LG Optimus G for sprint .... very identical except the F7 has a dual core, physical home button and camera placement (8mp) but other then that just based on appearances they look alike with the same screen and form factor.

 

 

This phone is a really decent deal and since I already had a 32gb sd card picking this over the galaxy s3 saved me 100.00 (or 2 months service on Boost) 

 

only down side this phone is lacking developers for custom roms and other stuff compaired to the s3

    • I really apreciate no longer seeing n38 for T-Mobile. My s24 Ultra is reporting that Signalcheck Pro is crashing frequently.  It has the latest updates. I do occassional change sims and band preferences. Let me know if you need anything else.   Thanks.
    • Spent a lot of time in Westchester this weekend, specifically Yonkers and White Plains. I mapped three AT&T Nokia -> Ericsson conversions. I was super impressed with T-Mobile's macro density and not so much with AT&T's. In Yonkers it seems like T-Mobile macros outnumber AT&T macros 3 to 1 and in White Plains, 2 to 1. Another surprise was the lack of small cells on AT&T in both cities. While Cellmapper shows White Plains having no small cells, I did manage to find one in the Church Street neighborhood. While it's only one, it's an indication to me that T-Mobile intends on expanding n41 density with small cells in the city. On the other hand, in Yonkers T-Mobile has a ton of LTE small cells but none of them have been upgraded to 5G yet as far as I can tell. Crown Castle has been moving super fast in NYC and Long Island to upgrade and install new 5G small cells so I can only assume it's either a permitting or backhaul issue that's stopping them from moving full steam ahead there. — — — — — Came across this cool site in Yonkers with Verizon, T-Mobile, and Dish present.
    • Other two sectors finally installed. Hopefully it goes live soon though I know from past experience that these new builds can take weeks and in some cases months to go live.
