  • Abstract:  Don€t believe everything you read: some reviews of the LG Optimus 2X didn€t do it justice, thanks to a buggy early sample that did the rounds, with annoyances such as shortcuts that turned out to be dead ends, unreliable widgets and Wi-Fi issues.What Mobi...

  • So dual-core, do you need it? No. Should you want it? Yes! Any power user or any smart phone user in fact should really look into upgrading to a smart phone with a dual-core chipset inside it. Why? Well everything is so much faster, your device will be...

  • The Optimus 2X is a beast of a smartphone, but an older bake of Android and LG’s rather pointless skin make the Samsung Galaxy S 2 the better option....

  • Dualcore processor; large screen and Full HD video capability,
  • Too many preinstalled apps; only Android 2.2.
  • Software niggles aside, the LG Optimus 2X is a super handset. Very speedy in response to the finger, offering a large screen and good skin, it's a leading light and makes us look forward with some excitment to the other dual-core Android smartphones th...

  • The LG Optimus 2X is a seriously powerful piece of kit. We love the 8-megapixel camera with it’s settings and Full HD recording, and we love the HDMI-out option. It’s not without its flaws; call quality is iffy and you will want to watch the battery. I...

  • Abstract:  So, after much deliberation I finally made the jump and bought a replacement for my much loved and trusty Nexus one – An LG Optimus 2X. The decision was actually quite easy, it had to be ‘next generation’ dual core powered, have an unlockable bootload...

  • Full HD camcorder, HDMI, dual core power
  • Android 2.2 skin is behind the curve
  • LG’s relying on the hardware alone with the LG Optimus 2X, and it does amount to an impressive phone, so long as you take the time to remove LG’s bloatware. But with equally ripped Android phones with an augmented Android experience out of the box just...

  • It wasn't that long ago we were calling the LG Optimus 2X a superphone, but it hasn't really lived up to that billing.The geek cred of the hardware is undeniable, but it doesn't lead the pack in the same way when it comes to software.It falls down at a fe...

  • The Optimus 2X is a super-powerful smartphone that represents the opening salvo in a new battle for dual-core mobiles. Only poor battery life lets it down, which is all the more disappointing because of all it's capable of. LG has still managed to prod...
