LG Optimus 4X HD announced with quad-core Tegra 3, Android 4.0
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGOptimus 4X HD
Whether you're ready for a deluge of quad-core Android handsets or not, LG is getting things started with the Optimus 4X HD. Inside, its Nvidia Tegra 3 processor is clocked at 1.5GHz, sits behind a 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 IPS display, and within an 8.9mm-thin body. Thankfully, it will launch with Android 4.0, which should sing quite nicely on the quad-core chip along with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. If you weren't aware, Tegra three actually offers a "companion core" with its "4-plus-1" setup that can be used in low power situations to help the phone sip on the 2150mAh battery instead of gulp at it, extending battery life. DLNA and MHL are also on board along with the obvious 8-mega...

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGOptimus 3D MAX
LG continues to announce an array of new smartphones ahead of next week’s Mobile World Congress trade show. On Wednesday, the company unveiled its follow up to the original Optimus 3D, the Optimus 3D Max. The handset is equipped with a 1.2GHz dual-core TI OMAP4430 processor beneath a 4.3-inch 3D WVGA display that is protected by Corning’s second-generation Gorilla Glass.

LG Optimus LTE Tag with NFC announced in Korea
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGOptimus LTE
LG announced another LTE-enabled Android smartphone – Optimus LTE Tag. Initially available in South Korea only, the new phone is pretty much on par with Samsung Galaxy S II’s feature set, though LG’s device has a 5-megapixel camera (whereas the SGS2′s camera counts 8 megapixels). Heck, since it comes in white, we can’t say it doesn’t look similar to Sammy’s smartphone — then again, all modern phones look the same, sporting a huge touchscreen with very few buttons beneath.
Anyway, the Optimus LTE Tag comes with a 4.3-inch WVGA IPS touchscreen, mentioned 5-megapixel rear-facing camera, 1.3-megapixel front-facing one, 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1,700 mAh battery, 16GB of built-in memory, while...

LG teaser could be for a new smartphone, or just about anything else
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLG
Teasers – what a clever way for companies to build up hype around their products and services! The latest one comes straight from the official LG Facebook page and hints at something that could be a new smartphone, or just about anything else. There aren't any clues as to what LG is about to unveil, just hints that it has something to do with the letter L.
"GenuineLy Compassionate. Esteemed VaLue. Perfection with DetaiLs. TimeLess FuLfiLLment." – sounds like something right out of a Myst video game, doesn't it? Four seemingly meaningless tag lines with capitalized L-s.
One wild guess that we could make is that there is a new smartphone coming soon, perhaps known as LG Optimus L. We have seen...

LG Optimus series gets a new logo
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLG
LG unveiled a new logo for its Optimus smartphones (and tablets), designed to “accentuate the metallic edges and slim shape of the 2012 smartphone line-up.” Moreover, the logo is said to “embody modern and seamless simplicity,” which is apparently the core for LG’s design philosophy for mobile devices.
And the new logo is just a start – the Korean company is also preparing to launch “superior smartphones” that “bring design prestige” to users seeking aesthetic beauty on technological devices.

LG Miracle picture and details leak
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGMiracle
LG may just have the answer to Fragma's prayers, as the Windows Phone 7 touting LG Miracle has been leaked all over the internet.
The Miracle isn't likely to take on the likes of the HTC Titan or Nokia's top end Lumia smartphones - the spec sheet suggests a mid-level entry device.
It is said to be packing a 4-inch WVGA NOVA display, which should sparkle somewhat, a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU, 8GB of storage, a 5-megapixel rear camera that can shoot 720p video and a VGA front-facing webcam.

LG P880 and P700 Android smartphones discovered, MWC debut sounds plausible
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLG
It appears that someone who had too much spare time at their disposal has discovered a pair of new LG Android smartphones. The handsets in question, known only as the LG P880 and the LG P700 at this time, have passed UPnP certification on February 1.
The P880 is likely to be a high-end smartphone judging by the fact that it is allegedly equipped with a 1280 by 720 HD display. Providing the processing power is a TI OMAP 44x0 processor accompanied by 1 gigabyte of RAM. In terms of software, the smartphone runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Besides, it is possible that the smartphone we are dealing with is the LG X3, which we heard of not long ago.
As far as the P700 is concerned, it is said ...

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsLGGoogleAndroid 2.3Optimus 3D
Even though LG announced Gingerbread update for the Optimus 3D smartphone almost 3 months ago, some carrier-specific models still didn’t get it. For instance, those of you who bought the device from Canada’s Rogers Wireless are still waiting for the official firmware upgrade. Your wait is over with Rogers and LG rolling out the new software as we speak, while all new customers will get the device with Android 2.3.5 preloaded.

Are these 6 T-Mobile models nearing their "End of Life"?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGHTCT-MobileSensation 4GmyTouch 4G SlideDoubleplaymyTouchmyTouch QAmaze 4G
It is the end of January and this time every year, carriers' thoughts start turning to making room on the shelves for the new batch of handsets that are coming. With MWC less than a month away, and a new batch of the most-up-to date models about to be displayed, TmoNews has obtained a leaked screenshot of an internal T-Mobile document. The document shows some devices on Controlled Distribution with no plans to replenish depleted inventories of these phones. The half-dozen Android models include three models manufactured by HTC which might actually get a little more time considering that the carrier continues to advertise some of them. The remaining three LG models are ones that not too many ...

LG Optimus LTE sales break 1 million units, took 3 months to do it
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGOptimus LTE
LG has just announced that the Optimus LTE has sold more than 1 million units. At fist glance that sounds like an awesome achievement, but looking at the numbers closely reveals some incredibly lackluster sales. First, the device went on sale in October 2011, meaning it’s been out on the market for 3 months. That would mean less than 350,000 units sold per month. Second, LG specially says that the device sold 600,000 units in South Korea. That would mean just 400,000 units left to be split among the three other countries where the device is available: the United States, Canada, and Japan. Forgetting about Canada and Japan for a second (such an American thing to say!), assume those 400,000 un...

LG’s Quad-Core 2012 Flagship Leaks: The Poorly Code-Named X3
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLG
Other than the LG Spectrum, LG didn’t have much to show off by way of phones at this year’s CES show. But that doesn’t mean that something special isn’t in the works.
In fact, Pocketnow reports that LG’s 2012 flagship will run a Tegra 3 quad-core chipset and go by the name X3, at least for now. The phone likely won’t show up on store shelves until spring or summer, but we should hear an announcement (including a retail name) come Mobile World Congress in February.
Other specs include Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which will be a must with most phones released this spring, 16GB of memory (with an SD card slot), and camera fun for everyone. By that I mean an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera an...

LG Optimus Black Gingerbread update rolling out in Europe and India
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsLGGoogleAndroid 2.3Optimus Black
You know how they say – better late than never. That seems to be exactly what LG is thinking when it finally decided to release a Gingerbread update for its Optimus Black smartphone. Not sure why it took them so long, but the good thing is that the new Android version is now available to download. Actually, we’re hearing only users in Europe and India can grab Android 2.3.4, while the rest of the world will have to wait for few more days/weeks (we’re not sure).
