LG today announced a new flagship smartphone, boasting 4G LTE and the Snapdragon quad-core processor.


Dubbed the Optimus G, the device is designed to lead LG's smartphone line. The flagship handset comes with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and a 4.7-inch HD IPS+ display offering 1,280 x 768 resolution. According to LG, it'll bundle 32GB of storage and 2GB of RAM into the device. It also features Bluetooth 4.0 and near-field communication support.


Perhaps the most surprising addition is the mammoth 13-megapixel rear camera to complement the device's 1.3-megapixel front-facing option. According to LG, the device supports "live zooming," which lets users zoom in and out while viewing a video. A new Cheese Shutter feature lets users take a video after giving a voice command.
