This article series looks at the upcoming releases from top smartphone manufacturers, almost all of which are looking like they’ll be released over the next two or three months.
It’s an exciting time to be buying a smartphone, with cool phones like the iPhone 5, the HTC Vigor and the Galaxy Note coming out. Many of these new phones are sporting much wider displays, some of which are capable of 720p, and CPU power is also vastly increasing.
Today, we’ll be looking at LG’s upcoming LU6200.
LG LU6200
This is quite a recent release, so we don’t know too much about this one. It’s set to be a South Korean exclusive at launch, but already has a European / US street name, the LG Optimus LTE. The device features an award-winning 720p IPS (in-plane-switching) screen more commonly found in high end monitors. IPS monitors tend to use less power and feature much better color reproduction than TN displays, although they are much more expensive.
Features:
- 4.5″ HD IPS display (720 x 1280)
- Dual core 1.5GHz CPU
- 4g capabilities
- 8 megapixel camera
- LTE capabilities
Release Date: 2011.
Certainty: 70%
We’d say there’s a good chance of the LU6200 getting a European release.
Accessories:
None yet.
