LG Stuns With the Most Powerful Smartphone on the Planet: the LG Optimus G

Impressive specs but its so iphoneish. And with that snapdragon it is probably a portable heating pad.

Actually, the S4 Snapdragon line is supposed to be the "less hotter" of the CPUs for smartphones out right now. There's a video where they did a "butter melting test". Yes, I said "less hotter" instead of "cooler" because coldness is technically not a measurement for temperature in science. :p Also, most people feel the warmness from their batteries of their phones more compared to the CPUs.

Here is the link of the video that I was referring to: [video=youtube;4mSD_EhgGSc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mSD_EhgGSc[/video]

Meh. iPhone was definitely not the first thing I thought when I saw that. If anything it's a natural progression of the LG Prada, a device that dropped prior to the iPhone, with changes to the bezel/accents.

My first thought was, "there's a non-QWERTY device that I would actually consider." My biggest concerns are: 1) What will the dev community look like? 2) Is it worth risking it with an LG knowing their history with updates? 3) How's that battery going to hold up? As it has full 4G support it seems likely this will end up on VZ, and if it doesn't then VZ is just blind to the market.

yup I'll keep my eye on it however I'm not going to hold my breathe, I used to really like LG... not so much anymore
 
Just too bad it's LG...kind of like the Kia of smartphones right now

I can tell you from experience, Kia's have come a long way. My uncle has a kia suv (cant remember what it was called) that is as nice if not nicer than any luxury suv out there. Not sure if LG can achieve that kind of excellence but if this phone is everything it seems to be it will be worth getting.

I'd have to have a device in my hands to toy around with before i can judge it. I've never used or even seen on to be honest.
 
On a more negative note, if samsung got sued for their phones looking like iPhones, LG is gonna get shut down, that thing looks more like it than any phone I can remember
I don't know about that. There is no stand out button on the front-bottom-middle. I think they can get away with that.
