LG Electronics announced Tuesday it will roll out its new
quad-core smartphone named Optimus 4X HD in Europe next month to compete with
its rival Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy S3.
Beginning its launch in Germany in June, the firm said it will release the 4.7-inch display smartphone in other European nations such as Sweden, the U.K., Italy and Poland.
It will then expand to other regions including Asia, the Commonwealth of Independent States and Latin America, said LG officials.
Running on Google’s latest 4.0 mobile operating platform, also called the Ice Cream Sandwich, the gadget is equipped with a quad-core processor called Tegra 3 as well as a high-capacity battery, LG officials said.
The Tegra 3 quad-core processor doubles the speed for completing tasks compared to the previous dual-core processor and also has a fifth battery-saver core that takes care of simple duties such as voice calls, e-mails and music play with low power, its officials said.
“The Optimus 4X HD will feature the firm’s innovative competitiveness in terms of fast task completion speed, clear display and longer battery life, which have been pointed out as the needs of smartphone owners,” said LG’s mobile chief Park Jong-seok.
He also said the upgraded functions such as the quick memo, which enables fast sharing and storing of memos, and media plex features ― such as fingertip seek, live zooming, video speed control and thumbnail list play ― will provide a differentiated user experience.
