LG introduces the speedy LG Optimus 2X, the first handset with a double-core processor
Share:
Europe and Asia are expected to get the device after Korea, and the LG press release made no mention about a U.S. launch although speculation centers around an eventual T-Mobile release. The LG Optimus 2X will come to market with Android 2.2 installed with an upgrade to Android 2.3 expected eventually.
The official specs now include the dual-core 1GHz Tegra 2 processor and a 4 inch WVGA display. The phone sports an 8MP camera with 1080p MPEG-4/H.264 video recording and playback, 1.3MP front-facing one, 8GB of native storage expandable to as much as 32GB using a microSD card, and HDMI mirroring. The handset will come with a replacable 1500mAh battery.
If you checked out the video we recently showed you of a browser war between the LG Optimus 2X, the Apple iPhone 4 and a Samsung Galaxy S, the amazing speed of the Optimus 2X clearly makes its presence known when a web page is rendered almost instantly.
The CEO and President of LG Electronics Mobile Communications, Dr. Jong-sek-Park said, "Dual-core technology is the next leap forward in mobile technology so this is no small achievement to be the first to offer a smartphone utilizing this technology. With unique features such as HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) mirroring and exceptional graphics performance, the LG Optimus 2X is proof of LG’s commitment to high-end smartphones in 2011."

Good, for a minute i was scared this gargantuan piece of shit was coming to verizon. Let T-Mobile have any "high end LG android phone", since all LG can make properly are small flip phones, the rest of them have about as long of a lifespan as the average house fly.

for this kind of phone it should have at least 480x854 (16:9) display resolution so the video recoreded can fit perfectly on the screen

Is this the LG Fascinate? LOL Look at the icons for phone, contacts, messaging, and applications! They look just like the ones on the fascinate.

So, why does the LG phone look like it's running TouchWiz, now?
