At the time of the LG Optimus G launch, the South Korean company stated in its press release about a global availability. However, there were no dates announced on a United States launch. Earlier yesterday, prnewswire and AT&T official blog sites mentioned availability of the 4.7-inch handset on the AT&T and Sprint networks.

Reports have it that the Sprint version will sport the 13 MP rear camera as in the international variant whereas the AT&T version will sport only an 8MP shooter. The front shooter capabilities will be same across both variants, 1.3MP. Let’s try recalling other common specs.

The LG Optimus G features an impressive display that has been developed in collaboration with LG Display. The result is a 4.7-inch WXGA True HD IPS+ display that offers a resolution of 1280 x 768p with crisper and sharper color accuracy.

The handset also comes equipped with G2 Touch Hybrid Display which has been developed by LG Innotek and which offers the slimmest panel display with no diffused reflection for clearer and sharper visibility even at outdoors. In addition, the thickness of the touchscreen panel has been reduced and offers more resistance to impacts.

Meanwhile, the LG Optimus G runs on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and comes powered by a 1.5GHz quad core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor and 2GB of RAMOnboard we have 32GB of storage capacity and support for 4G LTE, 3G as well as 2G.

Other features include Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi, USB 2.0, MHL, DLNA and NFC, while the handset itself measures 8.45mm in depth and weighs around 145g.

LG Chem has also lent its efforts in coming up with a high-density 2100 mAh battery that offers a lifespan of 800 cycles, which is much better than the 500 cycles of lifespan, that we find in the existing standard batteries.

Details regarding the pricing are yet to be announced.
