          DD, 28 Aug 2012actaully the cortex 15 consumpes battery less than cortex 9... moreFor the most end users, any kinds of chipset (whatever) become meaningless since their phone end up before 4 hours of internet browsing or 5 hours for video playback. Hence LG Optimus 4x has failed. Worst among quadcore phone tested by GSMArena.

              hilarious, ICS? Will it also have driver issues like the 4x and 2x too?I don't like apple that much but in LG's case with it's bad software builds in their strong phones make reasonable the fact that people like IO's stability, a gaaxyl nexus is the best deal now and I hope many people to see how some OEMs like LG ruin the Android reputation with bugs and forgotten customers.

                        AnonD-65102, 28 Aug 2012Whattttt????? Man, you don't have a clue for what you're ta... moreThis will have a different chipset with completely different power consumption. Hence it will perform differently towards bettery consumption.

                        And no, your SIII isn't better than 4x. It can't even be used at my workplace due to it's dim screen. Going outside, well then hope for a dark and sad day. Funny to see SIII useres struggle to read their screen. Even yesterday, as soon as the sun came out I saw a woman just gasping and putting away her phone whilst she was in the middle of a surfing session, then 0 visibility. It's benchmarks means nothing in real life, just as with the SII. Apart from the LG-s superiour screen, only gaming separates the two, and here the Tegra platform with it's wide support steals the win.

                        And no, I use neither of the two. They don't last long enough.

                          Wasn't LG supposed to launch a smartphone with a 5" 1080p (1920x1080) screen?

                          So why does this device use only a 1280x768 screen?


                          and by the way - also HTC is supposed to soon launch a smartphone with a 5" 1080p screen...

                                Just put the raw Andriod so that we can get the updates faster. Jelly been is quite good enough to go alone without any skining.....

                                      The 13mp camera is a great bargain.
                                      But with LED flash? Minus marks.
                                      I might get this one if only i have not get my S3.

Battery management is the most crucial problem, as seen at Optimus 4x and every features went to be useless. LG has failed in this field. Even compared to One X, battery management of Optimus 4x still suffered. In my country LG smartphone is being categorized as "others".
