The LG Miracle, or possibly Fantasy, is still unannounced, but pictures of the phone briefly appeared on a Romanian online market, giving us our first view of what looks like a working version.

Whatever the phone is called, it’s rumored to run Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, and to have an NFC chip along with mid-range specs like a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 8GB of internal storage, and 5-megapixel rear-facing camera.
