LG B is a maybe-official droid, with a Retina-beating display

17 December, 2010
LG is on a roll - just a day after the LG Optimus 2X powerhouse went official, LG officially confirmed the existence of LG B. It's a super-thin droid with a screen that might turn out better than both Retina and SuperAMOLED...

      i think lg has again considered mobile section n doing sm wrk to imprv it. hope it do best 4 lg and bring it sm reput in mobile world with its competetir but v can expect the samsung, htc etc should also be preparng sm answere device to it. reput n image of company did a gr8 impact on the sell of its devices. n lg lack such reput a little as cmprd to nokia and samsung htc even se. so lets see what fruit is brought to lg by this steping ahead by optimus 2x , this lg b and may b there is an other surprize.

        The image of 3 phones looks photoshopped...
        As what GSMarena said, LG B will come with android 2.2... But on the image the notification bar is black,,, I'm not believing the image, the sides looks edited as well

          "The 4" screen on the LG B seems brighter than both the iPhone 4 and the Galaxy S screens" -

          Sorry, but this is a bullshit. Because according to specs Retina should be brighter than both AMOLED and Super AMOLED. But in fact both of them are much better ( in terms of brightness and contrast) than Retina.

                    Brightness has a limit. Too much bright can cause eye strain which can lead to impaired eyesight or even blindness. That is if you use your mobile in dark or using it near your face. They must work on clarity of the screen not on brightness. Also, people tend to decrease the brightness scale on their phones. IMHO.

                        if this x86 thing can run scaled-down windows, imagine the possibilities (your favorite PC apps, photoshop on your phone! complete office suite!!)

                          Max, 18 Dec 2010After all LG showed something... I think with all it's inn... moreYes, u r right. LG has always been under the shadow of Samsung despite of all of its innovations. They always come with good ideas, but Samsung steals those ideas. Remember LG cookie. It was world' first low end touch screen phone. But Samsung copied it and come with Star. Samsung did sell more stars then cookies because they are more technologically advance then LG, but in the end this was an LG idea. Same is the case with Arena( Samsung copied it with Jet. But now it seems that LG is ready to go head to head against Samsung. Keep it up LG; U can beat Samsung. I am waiting for a Black Label Series smartphone.

                                I think with all it's innovation and power LG always was under Samsung's shadow and it's seems they want to end this.
                                Good job guys.

                                  nokia is kinda smart to layoff the dual core till later cause of the versions

                                  nokia might be picking up a newer generation of A9s for Q3 and a HW with a new battery

                                  this is too early
                                  remember what happened with blu ray and HD dvds

                                  it's kinda better to wait and see what the problems might be in the early stages of A9 and with the phones that support them so they can learn and not make that same mistake
