LG's first quad-core powered smartphone, the Optimus 4X HD is almost upon us with its arrival set for sometime next month into several European countries including the UK, Germany, Sweden, Italy and Poland. Pricing, global availability and exact launch dates between countries is yet to be made clear however.
LG has just finished polishing off an update for the user interface on its Android 4.0-running smartphones which while not bringing anything all that remarkable to the table, does carry with it a number of convenient additions which LG says will help make users' lives easier in getting tasks done with a faster and simpler interface overall.
It has been rumoured that LG is now building a production line for flexible OLED screens which is setting them back around US $176 million. Supposedly their first wave of flexible (unbreakable?) OLED displays will be 730 x 460mm, but it is yet to be established when LG plans to have its preparations finalized and production underway.
LG will launch a Google TV later this month, according to a senior executive at the company, giving new hope for Google's internet-connected TV platform.
It's not easy being top dog in the smartphone market these days, as shortly after Samsung announced the Galaxy S III, its Korean counterpart LG revealed its Optimus LTE2 handset. The company held back on some key specs, but the Optimus LTE2 looks set to be another interesting device that will go head to head in the 720p screen resolution market.
In following suit with competitors all around and what is a definitive path, LG is also raising some of its services up onto the Cloud with the Beta of its LG Cloud online storage service having been given the green light.
LG is apparently soon to release a new Dual-SIM phone in its entry level Cookie line which indicates the company's focus isn't all just about Android.
The Optimus 4X HD is LG's upcoming quad-core smartphone that has made an appearance at the Mobile World Congress in February. While the LG Optimus 4X HD is reported to go on retail in May, it seems that screenshots of the benchmark results are leaked ahead of the launch.
