    LG celebrates 500k Optimus G Pro Sales in Korea, Coming to India in May

    LG has not even begun selling the Optimus G Pro in global markets and has already managed to sell 500,000 units of their new flagship wonder. The Flagship from LG Apparently received 10,000 orders at launch, reaching half a million sold just 40 days after its launch. LG is also updating the software in April to allow for Eye Recognition Technology, that will be exactly like the one available from competition (read : S4)

    With its front-facing camera, the handset will pause a video if the user looks away, and start playing it when their gaze falls back on the display. In addition, the upgrade will pack what’s said to be a world’s first Dual Camera feature, which creates picture-in-picture shots by using the hardware’s two cameras. The Optimus G Pro will also receive the ability to change the home button’s LED to correlate with contacts, pause and resume video recording, color emoticons and refreshed QRemote functionality.

    The Optimus G Pro is set to launch in India in Early weeks of May for a undecided price, our guess is just shy of the 40k price mark.

  • Rumour : Next Nexus 5 Phone To Have A Nikon Camera Module

    Rumour : Next Nexus 5 Phone To Have A Nikon Camera Module

    The Nexus 4 is coming on half a year old and, as is tradition in the industry, rumours of its demise and successor are already making the rounds. The latest rumour to surface places the fifth Nexus smartphone once more in the grasp of LG who, along with Google, are working with Nikon to create the ultimate smartphone-based camera sensor and lens combo.

    Nikon is getting serious about the growing smart phone market: last year the company released their first Andorid based camera. Just last month Nikon signed a patent agreement with Microsoft involving patents for cameras running on the Android operating system.

    Of course the Nexus 5, or whatever it will be called, will be upgraded to a 1080p display — you can expect all high-end Android phones to join the Full HD ranks soon enough — but, along with the high-res display, bringing it to 5-inches may put it in the phablet space more than the smartphone one.

    Other rumours point to a Snapdragon 600 processor (Snapdragon 800 is going into an eventual Google Nexus 10.2, they iterate), 2 GB of RAM, 8/16 GB of storage, and a 3140 mAh battery.

    No point in getting ahead of ourselves, though; the next Nexus announcement is likely months away, at the very least.

    Last year, in November, Google released the Nexus 4 to great demand. The device, which combines high-end hardware with the latest Android 4.2 Jelly Bean software and a cheap unlocked and on-contract price, was extremely hard to find for its first few months of existence and remains one of the best Android smartphone options on the market.
