LG Optimus Vu Officially Launched

We already came to know of a few ideas which are part of LG’s plan for this year. LG has a few tricks up its sleeve to gain an upper hand in the competition. Most of the product LG plans to release this year, had been on display at the Consumer Electronics Event this year. Gadget buffs await one other event every year in addition to CES, called the Mobile World Congress. LG was expected to make a few launches at the MWC which is due to be held before mid 2012.

LG doesn't want to wait that long apparently, as they already launched a seemingly powerful rival for Samsung Galaxy Note. Christened as the LG Optimus Vu, the handset’s most important feature is the aspect ratio of its huge display.

Features of LG Optimus Vu:

• Slim 8.5 mm frame
• 5 inch Stylus friendly LCD display screen with 1024 x 768 pixels resolution
• 1.5 GHz Snapdragon Dual core processor
• 8 Megapixel Camera
• 1.3 Megapixel secondary camera
• LTE technology integrated
• 32 GB built-in storage capacity
• Android v2.3 Gingerbread Operating system
• 2080 mAh efficient Li ion battery

The powerful Ultra sized Optimus Vu is sure to give Samsung Galaxy Note, a run for its money. Reportedly LG intends to launch the Optimus Vu in Korea first but hasn’t made any announcements as to when the phone would be available in other countries. However LG did confirm that there will be an Android Operating system upgrade for Optimus Vu after 3 months of its launch date, which would update the current Gingerbread version to v4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

The storage memory of the Optimus Vu handset hasn’t been confirmed to be extensible by LG officially. But the handset comes with 32 GB memory for storage. LG’s Rubberdiem pen stylus will accompany the handset. For words on the pricing of Optimus Vu, we have to wait till March.
