LG has been somewhat subdued in the smartphone market in the last year or so as Samsung has really grown up and LG has frankly failed to impress us but maybe this year we can see a change. As MWC is getting closer, companies are sending in their invitations and LG just sent out the invite for their Mobile World Congress press event which promises to let us “discover LG’s new revolutionary smartphones.”
Those are some pretty strong claims but we hope LG lives upto it but seeing recent leaks, we can expect the following devices:
LG X3:
The X3 will be probably be the flagship device and the rumored specs are Android 4.x Ice Cream Sandwich, nVidia Tegra 3 SoC, 4.7-inch display with 1280×720 resolution, a sub-nine-millimeter profile, eight megapixels main camera, 1.3 MP front facing camera, 16GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD), WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC and 2,000mAh battery.
LG CX2 (aka Optimus 3D 2 or Optimus 3D Maxx):
This device should be the sequel to the last year’s Optimus 3D which was announced at MWC and it is said to have a 1.2GHz dual-core Texas Instruments CPU, NOVA autostereoscopic display for glasses-free 3D, dual rear cameras should of five megapixels, 8GB internal storage plus DLNA-capable 802.11b/g/n WiFi, and Bluetooth 3.0.
LG Vu:
The handset is said to feature a behemoth 5″ display with a unique 4:3 aspect ratio. Reportedly it’ll have a 1.5GHz Qualcomm APQ8060 dual-core Scorpion chip, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of ROM, eight-megapixel camera, NFC, and Android 2.3 Gingerbread on-board.
LG E400 Optimus L3:
It will be the budget stylish Android handset from the South Koreans. It will have a a small 3.2-inch display with a stale resolution of QVGA (240 x 320 pixels), three-megapixel main camera, microSD card slot for memory expansion, FM radio present and Android 2.3 Gingerbread on-board.
LG Miracle:
The device has been leaked quite a few times and it is reportedly LG’s first Windows Phone running device. It will supposedly pack a four-inch WVGA NOVA display, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 8GB of storage, 720p-capable five-megapixel rear camera, VGA-class front-facing webcam, plus the usual suspects: WiFi, Bluetooth and HSPA radio.
We’ll have to wait and see if these devices do make a revolution or not but we’ll bring you all the details for sure.
