LG Optimus 2X with Tegra 2 dual-core processor
Published on Jan 17, 2011
If you recall, the LG Optimus 2X is the world's first handset to pack a dual-core Tegra 2 chipset under the hood. The added power allows users to record in full 1080p video.
As you can see in the following video from Greek site Techblog, it seems to do this job nicely. Just make sure to click through the video and set the resolution to 1080p quality.
Additional specs include:
• 1Ghz Dual-core Processor (NVIDIA Tegra 2)
• 4-inch WVGA screen
• 8GB memory (up to 32GB via microSD)
• 1,500 mAh battery
• 8 megapixel rear camera and 1.3 megapixel front camera
• HDMI mirroring
• 1080p MPEG-4/H.264 playback and recording
The device is confined to release in Asia and Europe at the moment, but there is no doubt that the phone would make a big splash in the states with specs like these.
