You won't be able to conclude right away that the spartan-looking handset you are holding in your hands is the first modern dual-core phone, when you handle the LG Optimus 2X. It doesn't have a flashy design, or “2X” written all over it. You might star...
The LG Optimus 2X is a great phone and it is noticeably faster: whether it is at web browsing, video encoding/decoding, Flash or video games – the important thing is that the extra horsepower can actually be felt by the end user during ordinary usage.I th...
Abstract: The good folks at LG Electronics have just dropped off one of the most-anticipated Android handsets of the year and we've had a few hours to paw at the Optimus 2X. We were able to take an early look at it but this is our first glance at a retail version...
Abstract: It's been 22 days since we saw the Tegra 2 packing LG Optimus 2X at CES, and just moments ago the device arrived at our doorsteps ready for a thorough reviewing. It's out of the box and charging now, ready to enter our battery life tests, but before ...

Abstract: It seems like there are new Android phones every day, and this is why it is so important to differentiate. Manufacturers do everything they can to make their phones stand out, and LG has certainly taken a right step with the Optimus 2X. This is world's fi...
Fantastic screen; Easy-grip rubberised back; HDMI port
Sluggish performance, despite powerful processor; Android 2.2 is sooo 2010 – bring on Gingerbread! Poor inbuilt social networking applications
Equipped with the super-grunty Nvidia Tegra 2 processor – the same chip powering the better iPad competitors on the market – LG’s Optimus 2X should have performed more impressively than it did. Should a software or OS upgrade addressing the speed issu...
