LG Optimus G coming to the Philippines this March

We just got word today that the official launching of the LG Optimus G is set this March. The Optimus G is the fraternal twin of the Nexus 4 but with a few improvements, like a microSD expansion and LTE connectivity.

And speaking of LTE, I am also told that Smart will support the Optimus G in their LTE network.

LG Optimus G (E970) specs:
4.7-inch 720p True HD 720p IPS display @ 1280×768 pixels, 318ppi

Android 4.0 ICS (planned upgrade to Jellybean 4.1.2)
2100mah Li-Po battery

LG’s QSlide function (read about it here) is one of the most intuitive multi-tasking feature we’ve seen on a smartphone and LG stressed this was made as smooth as possible because of the Snapdragon S4 Pro.

In any case, we’re hoping to aget a hold of a unit soon. We still don’t have any idea on the suggested retail price but we’re hoping it will be under Php25k since the Nexus 4 retailed for only Php24,990.
