LG’s flagship LTE smartphone the LG G2, which features a 5.2-inch full HD IPS display and powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, was recently launched in the Philippines. Its suggested retail price is P30,000 but popular Philippine gadget online store kim.com.ph offers it at P26,305.
The LG G2, with its host of features, has been hailed the “smartest smartphone” by a number of tech websites. In a recent PhoneArena.com poll, the LG G2 was voted as “the best smartphone out there now” by global netizens. Likeise, the LG G2 was dubbed by Stuff.tv as “the best smart phone in the world.”
Obviously, it is the first smartphone of LG that ditched the “Optimus” brand name, opting for a two-character label, which understandably was intended to make the smartphone name easy to remember.
Another obvious feature the LG G2 has is its very narrow bezel that allows for the 5.2-inch screen to almost hug the sides of the smartphone. A bigger screen is a major advantage for smartphone users wanting to use the device as a media player.
LG G2 was officially launched September 25 at Solaire Resort and Casino.
“LG G2 is the pinnacle innovation in the current line-up of LG Mobile,” Lawrence Kim, vice president of LG Electronics Philippines’ Mobile Communications division, stated.
Describing the new smartphone as “human-inspired,” Kim said it will revolutionize the highly competitive smartphone industry with its innovative features.
“Its key message ‘Learning from You’ incorporates a number of revolutionary consumer based components that are set to become trendsetters in today’s smartphone market, shaping the smartphone of choice worldwide.”
