Has such an eagerly awaited device like the LG Optimus G transformed from a mere wisp of water cooler gossip to a real legitimate model ready to be launched in so quick a time? It all started in early August with speculation about a high end model coming to Sprint and AT&T called the LG Eclipse 4G LTE. This phone was expected to launch in October and compete with other top-shelf models like the Samsung Galaxy S III and the Apple iPhone 5. The device was said to be equipped with a 4.67 inch screen with 720p resolution. Under the hood one would supposedly find the quad-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Sanspdragon S4 pro APQ8064with the Adreno 320 crunching graphics. 2GB of RAM and a 13MP rear shooter were some of the other high end specs.
The LG Optimus G is launching in South Korea next week
Now we have the official word from LG that the phone will launch in South Korea next week and globally sometime in October. There are still many unanswered questions about where this model will end up and we know that those in the states are keeping their fingers crossed.
