We have seen some official details on the LG Optimus G Pro in the past. Those arrived a few weeks back and if you remember, they came by way of a wireless carrier NTT DoCoMo. Those details included some specs, however the images at the time were nothing more than a render. As of today though, it appears as if an in-the-wild style image of the Optimus G Pro has surfaced.

LG Mobile dropped a little teaser on their official Facebook page yesterday.

LG Mobile has recently taken to Facebook with a teaser. The details are at a minimum, however LG has said that a "new series will be unveiled."

Of course, depending on the level of splash that LG wants to make -- they could always choose to do this at a private event.

We have already touched on why we love the Nexus 4 so much. If you remember, one of those reasons was pricing, which we think will often play an important role. Stepping outside of the world of Android for a moment and today was a rather big day for BlackBerry. The company announced a pair of smartphones, one of which is the Z10, a full-touchscreen device that will arrive running BlackBerry 10.

The Nexus 4 has been slowly coming back to an available status. Here in the US we saw inventory arrive with T-Mobile earlier in the month and that was followed with Best Buy last evening and Google Play earlier today. There is still some question as to whether the inventory issues are because LG is not making enough or because Google is selling them in mass quantities. That said, given the reaction and excitement about the handset being available -- it is clear that the Nexus 4 is a device that people want.

A few leaks surfaced around the Optimus G Pro, however we can put all of those aside as LG has come forward with an official announcement. The catch being, LG has only announced the Optimus G Pro for one market. Of course, given the specs, we suspect that more than a few will hope to see this handset come available elsewhere.
