While looking at the specs, most of the features are similar in the connectivity and RAM. The Galaxy Y has better processor and comes with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) but it comes with just 2MP camera. The LG Optimus Me has an 600 MHz processor and has 3MP camera with better video recording at 24 FPS but has smaller 2.8 inch display. The Micromax A70 also comes with an 600 MHz processor, but it has larger display with better resolution, 1450 mAh battery and has a secondary camera that could be used for video calling using Android apps like Tango or Fring since it doesn’t support video call over carrier yet.
