LG Optimus 4X HD Tegra 3 Android smartphone

It’s no secret that we will be seeing a lot of Tegra 3 devices at MWC 2012, but LG has just beat everyone else to officially announce the first quad-core smartphone, named Optimus 4X HD (a.k.a. LG X3). Looking past LG’s lengthy naming convention, the new smartphone will certainly become the flagship for its 2012 lineup. It’s a massive 4.7-inch device with a 720p HD IPS LCD display running on the 1.5GHz quad-core (or 4-PLUS-1 as NVIDIA calls it) Tegra 3 SoC. Inside that 8.9mm thin body, you’ll find 1GB of RAM, 16GB of built-in storage and a not too shabby 2,150mAh battery.

The Optimus 4X HD will be running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and we’ve already seen that Tegra 3 SoC grabbing a 4,412 Quadrant score, handily beating other ICS devices like the Galaxy Nexus (full review here).

LG X3 smartphone render

NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 quad-core SoC is said to appear on more than one device at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona by the end of the month. One of these is the LG X3, which we first saw last month.

We’re pretty sure this will be LG’s flagship Android handset for 2012, with a 4.7-inch screen and 720p resolution. It will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream sandwich on a, as mentioned, 1.5GHz NVIDIA Tegra 3 chip, which features some pretty smart power saving features so hopefully it won’t be too taxing for its 2,000mAh battery.

LG X3 smartphone render

We pretty much know what a flagship Android handset will be like during 2012. You can rest assured it will have a 720p resolution with a large 4.5-4.7-inch screen, run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and have quad-core (like the Nvidia Tegra 3) or very fast dual-core processor.

A new leaked handset by LG fits this profile perfectly, and is set for a face-off with HTC’s rumored Edge for the title of the first quad-core smartphone. The LG X3 (final retail name be different) is said to be a quad-core Tegra 3 handset with a 4.7-inch 1280×720 display, 8-megapixel rear and 1.3-megapixel front cameras and NFC capabilities.
