http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/lgoptimusghandsonlead01.jpg We’re in Seoul for the launch of LG’s latest flagship smartphone, the Optimus G, and we finally managed to spend a few minutes with a demo unit. This is a powerhouse – the first handset built around Qualcomm’s 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro. It features LTE, a 4.7-inch 1280x768 True HD IPS PLUS display, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of built-in storage, a 13-megapixel autofocus camera, a sealed 2100mAh battery, NFC and runs Ice Cream Sandwich. We like the design, which is reminiscent of LG’s Chocolate and Prada models – it’s thin (8.45mm / 0.33-inch) and reasonably light for its size (145g / 5.11lbs). The front sports a glass surface with three capacitive buttons and the back showcases the company’s Crystal Reflection process – an attractive patterned reflective finish that’s a bit of a fingerprint magnet. Materials and build quality are excellent and the Optimus G feels pleasant in hand. Stay tuned for our hands-on video.Gallery: LG Optimus G hands-on
