hey guys we're here with the LG g2x for t-mobile and it's coming out next month i believe later this spring later this spring and this is the obviously the the optimus 2x that's been ported over here to the US so to tell us a little bit more about the this dual core device is Chad the device actually features the new Tegra 2 processor by Nvidia such a dual core processor is going to give me two point times faster gaming experience as well as multi medium the great thing about that is this is pretty much geared toward a lot of the gamers I'm as well as other super phone customers so what we want to do on this device is we're going to be taking full advantage of a Jeep or trust it's in here it's very very similar on the first version to the ps3 so what you're able to do is get council level gaming very low latency if you notice over here I'm going to flip over and you'll see something called Tigers are down tiger zone is an action application is free on the global marketplace the great thing about that is actually company some then make their develop games I a gaming I'm can do HD gaming with high-end graphics we access net full council level game right thing about the Tigers own app is it can only be utilized on devices that are using the tiger two processes okay makes sense I'm cheating and give us a quick 360 a hardware tour on it absolutely what this is actually going to be doing this is going to be using a standard Android and the reason that we use is a standard runnin or what we would like to call us in la android naked android yeah absolutely that's a great way to put that is this fact going to be fully upgradeable or 2.3 so we wanted to make that as smooth as simple as possible okay so the less side the less carrier stuff and and you I overlays the easier it is for you to roll out version upgrades absolutely and that's the whole goal about this would be able to do is simple and quick update okay that's good to know and so can we take a quick look around the device the sides the back absolutely if you notice on the sides we've got your volume keys over here okay okay on this side over here there's actually on the bottom it's going to be a charging port there's two speakers on the bottom and now are those definitely two speakers or as a speaker you're actually definitely two speakers there's another one dead center right here about the t-mobile logo okay you're looking at here is a front-facing 1.3 megapixel camera okay on the back is a mighty 8 megapixel camera that is mighty with an LED flash okay and on your top right here is a micro HDMI cable for gotcha now that I'm sorry the the silver on the back that is that just aesthetic or is that a kickstand the silver banding under the it's actually just the standard back and they keep in mind this is a prototype so this is not final version okay that could possibly change all right okay thank you Erica it would be possible for us to take a look at the browser absolutely let's see if we got this one's up here thank you brother ki there okay and i know some of our readers enjoy looking at pocketnow.com it would be possible to bring that up absolutely and that's a swype keyboard you're using absolutely was I think there was someone had typed it in with like and it and in there and there soon finds it try again there we go oh here's another site it's not actually talking now but it has talking out in a headline which we're pretty happy with that's great let's see the site would be right there there we go so I think I'm first of all don't load up the mobile version then you can scroll to the bottom of the page desktop versions although and so pocket nails are pretty pretty resource intensive site got a lot of pictures flash to load etc so it's pretty snappy God pinch-to-zoom so everything pretty zippy here and now that this is not running final final firmware as you said correct okay yeah this is still a prototype device and again stock Android opening screen and also what you can do is you can actually see on how fast the costs are is by how fast is hoping since close to the applications another cool way to do this I'm going to go into my media player here alright imma we've got a little demo look here so I'm going to go ahead and launch this okay one cool thing that you'll notice on here it actually is going to be in DTS sound so digital theater sound okay now and I'm sorry DTS is is one of the two competing surround sound standards along with Dolby Digital that's a clarified so we decided to go with DTS the great thing about that is going to give you a simulated surround sound on the device the great thing is if you hook that hdmi up to another source such as a TV what you're going to get is that sound of that drowns on washing transfer over do you have D is this a DLNA capable device this is a dl no cape no device is what we call smart share technology so not only being able to send and receive but it can also delicious a controller too so the great thing about that is i can actually go to a NOS media player or an Oakland computer and I could actually tell that to send a file or a media file to another device such as a TV exactly which is great one thing on here and this is what I like to demonstrate as far as capabilities of the processor its buffer speed we all know that sometimes a little bit of latency a little bit of delay in this right and if I tap the screen here and then I scroll back a little bit you're going to notice the zero latency on here it's immediately going to go to that next image and I'll do it again here you can see how fast that's going to render through wow that's a great capability alright excellent thank you so much Chad we really appreciate you walking us through this and again this is the tmobile g2x from LG coming out this spring
