If there is one upcoming handset that seems to have captured the attention of cell phone fans everywhere, it is the LG Optimus 2X. The first handset to feature a dual-core processor, with just one recorded browser battle against the Apple iPhone 4 and the Samsung Galaxy S, word is spreading about just how fast a phone LG has here.
Scandinavian retailer CDON.com has started taking pre-orders online for an unlocked version of the LG Optimus 2X. Priced at 4999 KR without a contract (the equivalent of $730 USD), there is no delivery date specified. Subsidized pricing drops the cost to 3099 KR ($453.16 USD).
As we reported, plans are for the Android flavored handset to launch first in Korea followed by a European release, with the device making it to the U.S. next February/March with an American debut via T-Mobile.
