Unlike
today's other phone
announcement,
we can't say we were expecting to see LG come out with something of
its own -- and it's a bit of a doozy, at that. Samsung's Korean
rival decided
not to let the Galaxy S III have the full spotlight for long,
officially unleashing the Optimus LTE2. The mind-blowing portion of
the spec sheet is its inclusion of 2GB RAM, a milestone we haven't
yet seen in a smartphone. Additionally, the LTE2 will feature the
company's "True
HD IPS"
display, WPC-backed wireless charging capabilities, Android 4.0 and a
2,150mAh battery that LG claims will increase the battery life by an
astounding 40 percent. We haven't received word on which CPU will be
used, though we're hopeful that a quad-core beast (or Krait,
perhaps?) will complement the astounding amount of RAM. The LTE2 is
due to land on at least three carriers in Korea sometime in mid-May,
but we haven't heard any pricing or additional country availability
at this time. We'll keep you posted as we learn more. In the
meantime, check out LG's Flickr page down below for more images, and
start thinking of ways to take advantage of the extra horsepower.
