LG unveils the Optimus 4X HD ahead of Mobile World Congress

LG has just announced the Optimus 4X HD, its fourth fifth sixth seventh eighth new Android phone to be announced in recent days. (Previously announced: the Optimus 3D MAX, Optimus 3D Cube, Optimus L3, L5 and L7, Optimus Vu and the Optimus LTE Tag.) This one looks to be the cream of the crop, and based on hardware it looks like a stunner.  Combine awesome specs with Ice Cream Sandwich and you have our attention. Speaking of specs:

  • 1.5GHz 4-PLUS-1 Tegra3 processor
  • 4.7-inch "True HD" IPS display (720p resolution)
  • 16 GB Internal storage
  • 1GB DDR2 RAM
  • 8MP rear camera with flash; 1.3MP front camera
  • Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

We'll see this one soon in Barcelona, and you can bet that we'll get our greasy hands on it for some camera time. 

On thing to note, while this all lines up well with the rumors about the O4XHD, LG and T-Mobile are still mum about any G4X version that may be in the works. We'll poke around and see if anyone has anything to say about that one as well. Just a couple more days, folks.
