LG Optimus G in white available from Rogers, uses 2600MHz LTE for faster data speed

Rogers' white LG Optimus G

The LG Optimus G will soon lose its title as the Korean manufacturer's flagship model. The LG Optimus G Pro will launch soon in Korea and should eventually be available globally. Until the new model is released in Canada, the LG Optimus G will have to do. But that doesn't mean that changes can't be made that make the phone seem fresh and vital.

Rogers is now offering a white version of the phone that gives it a whole new "clean" look. But even more important is what the carrier is doing with the device under the hood. The LG Optimus G on Rogers is the first smartphone in Canada configured to run on the 2600MHz LTE band which allows it to run faster than the same phone on other Canadian carriers. And with a three year contract, as is the custom up north, you can purchase the device for as low as $24.99.
