    I think that LG has done a great job with the Optimus Black.Looking forward to this mobile device!Just sad to see that Optimus2x is losing it's fight...even the Black seems a nicer option..of course until some version of android comes out that will demand dual-core...but nevertheless even the 2X is impresive...An excellent year for LG!!!

      LG finally showcasing its display making skills with their own device not on the iphone4. Very impressive indeed, i wonder how NOVA would hold up against SAMOLED+ and BRAVIA display though?

                  Nice quick comparison between the three screens. Looking forward to a more detailed review.

                  Now I know I won't be missing much if I decide to "migrate" from Samsung Wave to LG Optimus Black.

                    of course samsung does have pretty super cool technology which could lead this chaos mobile industry...but that's it...nothing else samsung would show off...GS2? super AMOLED? I think LG display's RETINA display is much way better than samsung's AMOLED...FYI Optimus Black is going to use the NOVA display...it's going to be a big hit in this world...that's why lots of telecommunication vendors pre-ordered 2 millions...is samsung better than LG? no way man! LG>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>samsung!

Every company depends on Samsung? Bah! LG uses almost 'no' Samsung parts inside their phones.
                              Moreover, although Galaxy S 2's memory has bigger space, it uses only single channel instead of dual channel that is being used by LG, causing bottleneck phenomenon between its CPU and memory, which makes the phone's performance left behind optimus 3d.

                                    I think LG Electronics has been more trying to make revolutionary products than samsung. samsung couldn't make some big issue...they're always standing within the ballpark...LG can be the most prestigious mobile company in near future. But samsung only can be the 'fast-follwer'...They don't have any soul...What can you think when you see the 'samsung' logo?

                                      Now, that's interesting. Been looking for possible replacement of my S8500. S8500 got good hardware but bada OS.... I'm not too fond of the Touchwiz UI either.
