The Optimus Vu: will have the 4-PLUS-1 NVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad-Core processor and Android 4.0 (ICS) OS when the 5-inch smartphone heads out of Korea and Japan to make its global debut in September.
I last wrote about the LG Optimus Vu: half a year ago in February, when it was unveiled ahead of MWC 2012, and slotted to be introduced in Korea in March.
At that time, it only had a 1.5GHz dual-core processor and Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS.
The Optimus Vu: will be updated with a 4-PLUS-1 NVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad-Core processor and Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) OS.
It will also feature upgraded versions of QuickMemo and Notebook.
Since then, more than 500,000 units of the Optimus Vu: has been sold in Korea while it has been launched in Japan this month.
The LG Optimus Vu: sports a 5-inch display – slightly broader but smaller than the 5.3-inch Samsung GALAXY Note.
The 4:3 ratio IPS display will work well with an upgraded version of QuickMemo and Notebook – two features that maximises the use of the large screen.
The Optimus Vu: will make its debut in select markets in Europe, Asia (including Singapore), Middle East, Africa and Latin America in September.
