The quad-core LG Optimus 4X HD against the rest: spec comparison

Everyone keeps saying about the battery life, but in all honesty they have shown that the Tegra 3's are already more battery efficient than the Tegra 2. The 5th core is going to be handling all of the mundane, non-heavy processing, stuff. And they have shown that having more cores enables the processor to efficiently handle tasks. I mean we have to remember the Atrix had a 1930 mAh battery and was able to last almost 9 hours in talk time. Given the fact that the Tegra 3's like I said have been shown to be more battery efficient, I would say 2150 mAh is more than enough given the fact that this phone also has a larger screen. The only bad part is that they are still doing 40 nm chipsets instead of trying to do 28 nm. But, I think that is the plan for the next chipset nVidia is coming out with.

I hope this isn't like the LG nitro, even though it was a dual core 1.5ghz processor, it still lagged and had terrible battery life

Out of these phones, clearly only the Xperia Ion can challenge it.
It's a tough choice between LTE, 12mp camera, higher quality build vs. tegra 3 and a bit slimmer body.

i think lg is blazing up this year we will see. i only appreciate the optimus 2x of my friend when the 2.3.x update comes for that's where the full function of that device can be seen. but when it comes to this year! wow! pretty impressive move mobile companies are will be having a very stiff competition! thats my prediction! :)

I've got to agree with CX3NT3_713, after having to root my g2X and install Cyanogen in order to have a WORKING phone because Tmo wouldn't do diddly but say 'there's a patch on the way' for months. Would not replace it even when the LG rep admitted there's a known problem WITH this phone.

The Titan II has a 16MP camera, but can only record in 720p? Really? Misprint?
Also, why are all of the batteries measured in milliamp hours, but the iPhone is measured in talk time? Talk time on 3G, 4G, 2G? Talk time over wifi? Who knows?!
P.S. [As a T-Mobile user] It would be nice if you included frequencies under LTE/HSPA+/CDMA/GSM/Link speeds.

I'm pretty sure the SGS3 will beat the hell out of this crap just like what the SGS2 did to the Optimus 2x, even though it was the first dual core to come out..

the galaxy nexus actually has a 1850mah battery as the standard battery.

A note on your statistics: I notice that for the iphone you only include its GSM/UMTS capabilities, that is, the iphone only gets 14.4 Mbps on AT&T, and much less on sprint, verizon, or c-spire

the iphone has something like a 1400mah battery.

I think this phone is not as s**tty as the Optimus 2x when it first came out.
