Looks like LG has kicked some butt here. . .

This is undoubtedly a surprise. If it has a quad-core or an S4 chip then it's really gonna be a contender for the smartphone crown. Couple this with a Camera better than 8MP, and the TrueHD screen and this will surely be a tough phone to beat.

And a really large battery to power the phone for at least 12hrs...

When I saw the headline, I was about to have an org***!!! Disappointed that if true, LG's going to be setting the stones for a true, high-end smartphone, something with 2GB of RAM and a minimum dual-core. I was hoping for Samsung to at least bump up the RAM, out in a higher MP rear and front camera, change the display tech... I also like the boxier phone design of the LG's than the way too curve SGIII... LG's planning on having a wireless charging system wh/Samsung is bringing us... Android market is really competitive amongst themselves... The Android OS is fragmented along w/the various manufacturers and their phones supporting Android...

No offense guys, but the Motorola Atrix was one of the first with 1GB RAM and Dual Core and it still kinda sucked because of the UI (at first, not anymore by 2.3) so LG needs to show something to us first before we start with this hype again. LG Optimus 2X sucked for me.

and what's up with all the SGS3 hate? It's an upgrade to the SII, not the Nexus and Samsung has really done a good job with Touchwiz and all that. When the SII came out, there was not much hype and fun over it but give it time and you'll see the full potential. It may not be the phone for geeks like us, but I'm sure it will lead the way in sales and all that because everyone knows Samsung is the anti-iPhone.

LG was the first with dual core, not Motorola. Motorola might have sold it in the states first, but worldwide, LG was first

The SGS2 already has desktop pc specs in it. Granted, an old desktop\netbook PC, but still.

The smartphone is the new PC. Something that Apple keeps ignoring.

soon we'll have Nvidia GTX Video Cards on phones and tablets, and intel just entered the mobile world lately...

CORE i7 PHONES FOR EVERYONE.

imagine an Alienware Phone...

lol at people saying rip...watch when sale figures come out and the s3 wipes the floor with this and one x...ie not saying the s3 is the best but it certainly is the most recognised out of the android crowd....lg were the 1st with dual core and 3d and it shows being 1st doesnt mean success...serious note dont think we need quad or 2gb ram but hey why not :)

I'm awaiting what the Hayabusa has to bring to the table, yum2.

Yeah, me too. It's not the body of the phone, that looks nice. It's the skin they put on the favorites bar. Ew.

39. u-suck-more posted on 04 May 2012, 04:42 3 2

sour grapes. just cant handle the fact that LG outdid Samsung at last

53. taz89 posted on 04 May 2012, 10:49 1 1

s3 will sell more...lets not forget lg were also 1st to do dual core and 3d and that didnt help them much...people dont put lg and good phones together.

66. u-suck-more posted on 04 May 2012, 20:33 0 0

of cos the Samsung will sell more. Samsung has the branding and has been on android longer than LG, so naturally ppl will think Samsung is better because of its experience. and also this phone is starting out in korea only, so it will take a longer time to achieve a high sales figure
not yet, but this phone could change things

let us hope LG has learned their lesson and are working on software updates furiously

1.2 gb RAM is enough at present.

But with 2 gb of RAM, your phone will last much longer and you won't have to replace that frequently.

It's not try browsing oh dolphin hd opening
3 tabs after 10 minutes u have used 470 mb

Flashness
This reminds me ov

putting 2gb in a phone is not innovative...lol huawei or pantech could put in 2gb if they wanted.

33. medicci37 posted on 04 May 2012, 04:11 3 0

Will probably have the same processor as the US version of the sg3. So it probably will be more powerful. Definitely won't be as disappointing !!!!!

36. u-suck-more posted on 04 May 2012, 04:21 0 1

even if it cant beat the processing power (which we still dont know), the LG will beat the GS3 in multitasking

70. garz_pa posted on 05 May 2012, 01:26 0 1

Who does heavy multi-tasking on a phone? Yes, this LG looks promising, but design-wise it looks so....... dull. And boring. At least the iPhone 4 has curves.

88. u-suck-more posted on 05 May 2012, 05:18 0 0

even if u dont, the phone will be smoother the SGS3. processing power is not everything

apparently 2 people. and perhaps, i could be trying to say that Samsung doesn't even have the decency to put a decent amount of RAM in their own computer, what more can we expect from their phones?

Are you serious? Last year everybody was whining why do I need a gb of ram my phones not a computer blah blah blah now that there's a phone with 2gb of ram a gb is no longer acceptable? No I know why many of you were dissatisfied with the actual specs of the GSIII.

This is not ironman phones are not transparent hologram projecting, 3gb of ram, 98mpx camera
And a 1080p rgb screen thin enough to slip in the crease of your door when your locked out who
ile also be made out of wolverines metalic bones don't overhype it to only be let down.

Lastly what LG phone that's come out lately was as powerful as the gs2 the revolution? Ahh doesn't matter you'll still overhype this then be pissed when you buy it.

samsung hasnt pushed any hardware limits with the S2. get over urself

68. u-suck-more posted on 04 May 2012, 22:18 1 0

to those tt disliked that comment: how exactly was e S2 pushing hardware limits? 1.2gHz dual core? no, we had 1.5 like a month later. a gig of RAM? had tt before. 8MP camera? already have it. 4.3'' screen? done already. 8.49mm thin? nth compared to the RAZR. dual core? had already. 2MP front facing camera? LG Optimus Black was first

50. u-suck-more posted on 04 May 2012, 08:16 0 1

and how exactly is Samsung pushing software limits? the eye tracking thingy? there is an app for that already (which utilizes the front facing cam, and the angle of the phone).. i forgot what its name was though
