LG Canada announced today that their quad-core Optimus 4X HD will debut in Canada in October and will be available through WIND Mobile and Videotron.
Beyond the fast NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, LG’s latest Android 4.0 device boasts a higher density battery for more power and longer run times and a superb high resolution viewing experience with its 4.7-inch True HD IPS display. Since its debut at Mobile World Congress, the Optimus 4X HD has been upgraded with new SiO+ battery technology, Quick Memo to enhance productivity, and Media Plex for an advanced multimedia experience.
“The Optimus 4X HD offers incredible speed and performance without compromising battery life,” said Geoff McMurdo, Vice President Mobile Communications, LG Electronics Canada. “Users want intuitive software and beautiful hardware and the Optimus 4X HD is another proof point that LG is a strong player in both areas.”
The Optimus 4X HD is fitted with NVIDIA’s 4-PLUS-1 Quad-Core mobile processor, the Tegra 3, which utilizes a fifth core for the best blend of outstanding performance and power efficiency. For maximum performance, Tegra® 3 runs on all four cores, but when in standby mode the processor defaults to the fifth, battery-saver core.
In a future upgrade, LG will introduce Eco-Mode specifically for the Optimus 4X HD which will allow users to manually shut down any of the Tegra 3’s cores for even more control over power consumption and performance.
