LG HAS CONJURED UP ANOTHER CROP OF CUTTING-EDGE SMARTPHONES: SLIMMER. SLICKER AND EVEN MORE POTENT THAN THE LAST. QUESTION IS. DO YOU WANT SOPHISTICATED STYLE OR OUTRIGHT POWER AND 3D THRILLS?
We live in a golden age of smartphone design. Such is the expeditious pace of technological development, a new wave of handsets arrives every few months; each fresh batch sleeker, more powerful, more featur. filled
and more desirable than the last. If we weren’t so spoilt, so conditLoned to expect this constant improvement, it would be easy to imagine the designers were weaving some kind of high-tech sorcery in their studios.
Take these two brand new slivers of black magic from the boffins at LG. Just announced at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the Optimus 3D Max and Optimus L7 both pack in more technology and more features than their predecessors, the Optimus 3D and Optimus Black — phones that were themselves launched barely a year ago — and yet they’re also slimmer, lighter, more stylish and easier to use. Together with the rest of the new
LG Optimus range, they represent the cutting edge of smartphone design. Read on for full details of these newest of new smartphones, but also consider — albeit just for a second — how lucky we are: thanks to the wizards in white coats, holed up in RD labs around the world, you get to enjoy a mobile experience that would have seemed almost unbelievable a few short years ago. It’s not magic, of course, but it is very clever.(Stuff)
