If you own the LG Spectrum and you’re eagerly awaiting the release of Android 4.0 for your phone, it seems that the release could be close at hand. This is thanks to an LG employee who responded to a forumer’s question about when they would able to see Android 4.0 ICS arrive on their phone. Assuming he has his facts right, he claims that the update is very close to a release and are basically waiting on a FOTA date from Verizon. In the meantime the employee has also suggested that LG Spectrum owners keep an eye out on the LG updates page where news of the update should be posted once it has gone official. Alternatively LG Spectrum owners are more than welcome to check back with us too as we will keep you guys posted once the update has been announced! With a leaked ROM making its rounds back in May, we guess we’re not too surprised to learn that the official release could be just around the corner.

If you’re not content with 1080p on your big screen TV, then fear not: manufacturers are starting to roll out their 4K TVs, though you’ll have to pay a small fortune to get your hands on one. LG will be selling its new 84-inch 3840×2160 TV in South Korea towards the end of August, and is currently taking pre-orders. The company will be showing off the television in stores across the country, but quantities of the set will be limited.
There will only be 84 of the TVs available to buy, though at ₩25 million (~$21,925) there probably won’t be many customers seeking them out. LG will be throwing in some extra goodies too, including a 2.2 speaker system, some 3D glasses, and a 3D camcorder valued at around ₩300,000 (~$263). LG will even hook the TV up for you for free: we should certainly hope so considering the gigantic size and price.
South Korea may be seeing the TV first, but LG is planning on bringing the set to other destinations around the world, including the United States, Europe, and Latin America. The company says it should arrive sometime in the second half of the year, so that should give you some time to figure out how to get your hands on some 4K content and save up the necessary money.

LG does seem serious on peddling their massive, massive 84-inch ultra-definition 4K HDTV that was first spotted at CES earlier this year. It boasts a stunning level of resolution – we are talking about 3,840 x 2,160 (UHDTV) pixels here, where it is capable of maintaining a full 1080p picture for 3D movies, and this happens even as you use the LG’s FPR Cinema 3D passive glasses technology. Not only that, this particular TV will come with a standard range of Smart TV features. Well, LG would by no means want to be left behind in Samsung’s wake, as the latter has just announced the 75-inch ES9000 that carries some Angry Birds goodness along with it. One thing is for sure though – this bad boy is not going to come cheap by any means, so you might want to start saving up for one like since yesterday! [Korean Press Release]

It looks like LG is actually going to sell that sweet 84-inch ultra-definition TV we saw at CES. With a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 (UHDTV) it will maintain a full 1080p picture for 3D movies even with LG’s FPR Cinema 3D passive glasses technology, and also includes the standard suite of Smart TV features. Of course, the launch is quite predictable, considering there’s no way LG could let Korean rival Samsung rule the roost with its 75-inch ES9000 that’s on the way. While we’ll wait for an English language PR for all the details on the 84LM9600, native speakers can scrounge some won together and hit the source link below for more information.
Update: We’ve checked with LG and confirmed that this LCD has a price of 25 million won ($21,925 US) for anyone preordering the 84 units that will be on sale for the first month, and it has a 2.2 channel “3D sound” system. It’s only going to be available in Korea for now, so lining up outside your local big box store might be going a step or two too far, for now — that 4K content isn’t really available yet could be another reason.

The world of technology and gadgets is a fast-paced and highly competitive one, and sometimes, things can get a little bit hairy. Six LG Display employees have been charged with stealing OLED technology from Samsung Display between 2010 and 2011, with Samsung saying that LG poached some of its core employees – and presumably a number of its business secrets – as well. 11 people total have been charged in the case, including three people who currently work for Samsung and two former Samsung Mobile employees.
LG, of course, denies any involvement in the theft of Samsung’s technology and claims that the information Samsung accuses it of stealing was already widely known, and therefore can’t be considered a trade secret. OLED looks like it’s going to be the next big thing in display technology, and with OLED TVs costing thousands upon thousands of dollars, it’s pretty easy to see why Samsung is being so protective of its information in this case.
Interestingly enough, Samsung doesn’t want any money, just a formal apology from LG Display. LG, on the other hand, is apparently planning to take Samsung to court for defamation.
Who is right and who is wrong here isn’t for us to decide, but it sure does make the day a whole lot more exciting. Samsung and LG are the world’s two largest flat-panel makers, and there isn’t any doubt that the two will be competing fiercely when it comes to making OLED technology the new industry standard for displays. LG could be in a mess of trouble if it turns out that Samsung’s charges are legitimate, so this will definitely be a story to watch in the coming days and weeks. Stay tuned.

The LG Optimus Vu will join the rest of the “phablet” phenomenon, with the most famous device from this range being the Samsung Galaxy Note to date (which was announced by T-Mobile just earlier this morning, although the exact release date has yet to be mentioned). This particular device has been spotted in a leaked image, where it comes with full Verizon badging, which clearly points towards a Verizon release in due time.
I guess T-Mobile is not the only network in the US that is interested in a plus sized handset, and what you see above is clearly not a production model, never mind that it has a “Not For Sale” label in place of its FCC ID, but other than that, it is more than ready to rock and roll. The LG Optimus Vu is ready to arrive with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich right out of the box. No idea on how much it will cost though, but so far the international version of the LG Optimus Vu has been one of the more expensive devices to date, retailing for nearly a grand.
