Amazon's German outlet has started listing LG's two latest and
undoubtedly greatest phones: the Optimus 2X (seemingly renamed the
Optimus Speed here) and the Optimus Black. Both run Android 2.2 on 4-
inch screens, with the former offering a dual-core Tegra 2 processor
capable of 1080p video recording and HDMI output, and the latter
cranking up the display brightness to a quite unreasonable 700 nits.
The Optimus Black also has one of the thinnest profiles on a
smartphone of its class at 9.2mm, and will be one of the first phones
to offer WiFi Direct connectivity. Intriguingly, Amazon's Optimus
Speed / 2X listing also shows a brown color option for the handset,
though only its black SKU is subject to a neat €50 discount
bringing its price to €499, the same as the cost of the Optimus
Black. We don't know when either one will drop, but you can go and
reserve yourself one (or a dozen) at the links below.
