LG’s Optimus has seen the daylight at MWC today. The hardware could make the Optimus 3D a preferred device for techsensitive Android users.
Next to the 4.3” autostereoscopic screen, the Optimus 3D runs on a dualcore 1Ghz OPAM 4 CPU from TI. The graphics are powered by a PowerVR SGX540 that can also be found in the Salaxy S from Samsung. LG also said that the Optimus 3D will hold four times more media codecs than any competing phone.
“I’m confident that this year, LG will emerge as a leader in the next generation of smartphone and tablet devices,” said Dr. Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “What you see here today is just the beginning — we will continue to innovate with products that address consumer needs and deliver benefits that live up to our `Life`s Good` commitment.”
