hello everybody it's Lynn la here from cnet bringing you guys the lg optimus 4x HD now this phone is LG's first quad-core handset and it runs on Android Ice Cream Sandwich it's powered by a 1.5 gigahertz Tegra 3 processor and I gotta say it's stupid fast games played smoothly apps launched and quit like nobody's business and the 8 megapixel camera is the quickest I've seen on any LG phone you can even leave your finger on the shutter and I'll take one picture after another keep in mind that this is different than automated continuous shooting which the camera can still do other camera options include HDR imaging and a time machine feature that lets you capture a frame right before you press the shutter in case you missed something you can also record in full HD 1080p video the 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera has a few tricks to like this beauty shop module that lets you control the blurriness or lighting of an image this comes in handy when taking self-portraits but unfortunately this feature isn't available in real life the 4x HD also sports an attractive 4.7 inch true HD IPS display that leaves images looking crisp and colors vivid and bright powered by a 2150 milliampere hour battery this device is also NFC enabled and comes with these tag plus stickers these let you activate certain settings on your phone so say every time you get in your car you want to launch the navigation app and turn bluetooth on just set it here and save it stick the car mode sticker in your car and now every time you get in and tap it these settings will activate there's also office and sleep mode stickers that you can use to automatically dim your phone turn it on vibrate or set music timeouts other features on the phone include some nifty video playback options like scrolling previews and you could fast-forward or slow mo your recorded videos it's not perfect however some might find it a little too big audio speaker quality isn't the best and the new LG interface called optimus three-point oh isn't as elegantly simple as the Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich skin though I do like the way it launches apps through the lock screen the biggest disappointing feature however is that the 4x HD is only available so far in parts of Europe it will be sold in other countries too but he hoping that a US release will be planned in the nearby future again I'm Lynn bringing you guys the LG optimus 4x HD
