LG has outed its latest smartphone, the LG Optimus LTE, and as the name suggests it’s a challenge to Samsung’s recently revealed Galaxy S II LTE. The Android-powered Optimus LTE – or LU6200 as we knew it before – supports high-speed mobile data, of course, but LG is particularly proud of the 4.5-inch “IPS True HD” display which, the company reckons, will be the first 1280 x 720 smartphone panel to go on sale in South Korea.
Other specs include a 1.5GHz dual-core processor running Android 2.3, along with DLNA compliance and an HDMI port for hooking the Optimus LTE up to your HDTV. That combination of a speedy processor and LTE is likely to suck down power pretty darn quickly, so LG has slotted in a 1,830 mAh battery pack. The camera is an 8-megapixel unit supporting HD video recording.
Unfortunately that pushes the dimensions up to 10.4mm thick, though that’s still on the narrow side for a big-screen handset like this. The LG Optimus LTE will ship in South Korea on October 5, on SK Telecom; no word on international availability at this stage
It may not be the biggest phone reveal coming in the next 24 hours, but leaked details had already piqued our interest in LG's next big thing. The Optimus LTE's screen rivals Apple's Retina Display at 326ppi and that high-definition sharpness is slathered on a 4.5-inch AH-IPS display.
