LG says it’s the world’s first “Mobile Phone to Use a Dual-core Processor” according to the Guinness World Records, and the device will be available running Android 2.2, with an upgrade to 2.3 to be announced shortly.
The Optimus 2X features NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 mobile dual-core CPU as well as full 1080p video playback and a Micro HDMI port allowing owners to place images onto an external display such as a television. The screen is 4″ and has capacitative touch support, with an 8 megapixel rear-facing camera.
“Harvey Norman is excited to be working with LG to bring this great new device to the Australian market. The Optimus 2X, with its dual-core processor and range of cutting edge features, is very appealing to our customers who are always looking for the latest and best in technology,” Ben McIntosh, General Manager of Computers & Communications at Harvey Norman said in a statement this morning.
The device will be available exclusively with Harvey Norman, and will go on sale later this month. Eventually more retailers are expected to stock the device.
