LG F240 Has 1080p Display As Well

The race is firmly on, and the HTC Droid DNA will have to turn back frequently in order to see just who else is breathing down its neck – and LG’s F240 is said to be another smartphone that will come with a 1080p display, this coming after we heard that Samsung could very well release a 4.99” 1080p Super AMOLED display at CES 2013. The LG F240 (right now, this remains as a codename, so you could very well expect it to be known as something else entirely by the time it is ready to hit the market), where it is speculated to come with a 1,920 x 1,080 pixels resolution display.

The LG F240’s benchmark results point towards a 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor alongside the Adreno 320 GPU, making it on par with the HTC Droid DNA in terms of raw power. It will feature Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean as the operating system of choice, and chances are pretty good we could see this puppy make its worldwide unveiling at CES 2013, or perhaps if time does not permit, MWC 2013 in Barcelona, Spain a month after CES. I guess the iPhone 5’s display is now persona non grata point when it comes to arguments over a smartphone’s display qualities in comparison tests – both in terms of size, resolution and pixel density.

LG F240 possibly spied in benchmarks packing 1080p screen, Snapdragon S4 Po

LG’s Optimus G (and Nexus 4) might have been the resolution champion among non-phablet Android phones for only a brief moment before the HTC Droid DNA arrived, but there’s clues surfacing that LG may fight its way back to a draw. Following hints through browser profiles, a set of results on GLBenchmark have appeared for an unconfirmed LG F240 wielding a 1080p screen resolution; given the allusions to Korean phone carriers like KT and LG’s earlier decision to back away from tablets, we suspect that it’s something pocketable. The F240 could otherwise be more of an evolution, if it’s real — the Adreno 320 graphics and 1.5GHz clock speed allude to the Optimus G’s Snapdragon S4 Pro sticking around, and the biggest leap beyond the screen could be an upgrade to Jelly Bean (4.1, not 4.2). While benchmarks aren’t entirely trustworthy without a tangible device to match, there’s enough here to imply that HTC will have at least one major competitor in a very young category.
