The LG Optimus LTE, announced today, is another new Android 2.3 phone we in the U.S. can only dream about from afar, at least for now.
The Gingerbread handset has a 4.5-inch touch screen with a 1,280×720-pixel HD LCD display. LG claims it’s the “highest-resolution IPS (in-plane switching) display” available on a smartphone.
The Optimus LTE also has a dual-core 1.5GHz processor, and an 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video capture and playback. In addition, there’s an HDMI port and support for DLNA, so you’ll be able to play phone content on your compatible TV. An 1,830mAh battery will hopefully grant it long life.
The Optimus LTE picks up LG’s pace in producing LTE-ready phones. So far we’ve been pretty happy with what we’ve seen, including the T-Mobile G2X and the Revolution. The phone maker has also recently reached out to prepaid carrier MetroPCS with the LG Esteem.
The Optimus LTE is currently slated for Korea. LG says its plans to release the phone beyond Korean borders are still “undetermined.”
