Alleged LG Optimus G2 Smartphone Image Leaked

Alleged LG Optimus G2 Smartphone Image Leaked

It is not unusual for images of unreleased smartphones to get leaked well before they’re even due to be announced. We’re a few days away from Google I/O 2013 and already the Android community is buzzing with rumors, leaks and speculation. A very well known person, who has leaked images in the past that were spot on, has now posted an image of an unnamed LG smartphone which is said to be the Optimus G2.

People have theories about what this device can actually be. Some believe that it might be the Nexus 5, but it is difficult to believe that the next generation Nexus smartphone will have LG branding on the front. The leaker, @evleaks, guesses that this might be the LG Optimus G2. While details about the G2 are vague, it was previously expected that the smartphone will be released alongside Google’s launch of Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie, but that software launch too has reportedly been delayed. Most recently this smartphone was sighted at Bluetooth SIG from where it picked up its Bluetooth certification. It is also rumored that the LG Optimus G2 will have a 5″ full HD display with 13 megapixel camera and Android 4.2.2. [Image via @evleaks’s Facebook]

LG Optimus G2 Spotted At Bluetooth SIG

LG Optimus G2 Spotted At Bluetooth SIGWe have seen our fair share of devices being revealed or mentioned by the Bluetooth SIG before it has been officially released in the market, so it comes across as no surprise to discover that the LG Optimus G is going to be on the receiving end of a sequel – that is, none other than the non-creatively named LG Optimus G2. After all, this device has picked up its Bluetooth certification at the Bluetooth SIG, not to mention having been spotted in AnTuTu benchmark scores.

The benchmark scores point towards three different variants of the LG Optimus G2, and they are the F320K, F320L and F340L. The F320K would run on a 1.5GHz processor with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean in tow, while the remaining two would have a speedier 2GHz processor that in all probability, would be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 since it remains the only processor which is capable of hitting such clock speeds at the moment, and both of them will be powered by a more recent version of Jelly Bean, that is Android 4.2.2. Additional hardware information on the LG Optimus G2 include a 5” Full HD display, a 13-megapixel rear camera and a 2.1-megapixel front facing camera.
