The LG Spectrum might be better known as the Revolution 2 or the device that will replace the original Revolution. We’ve seen it a few times in the past and earlier this week actual images of the device were leaked online. Obviously being the bigger brother to the Revolution we have Verizon 4G LTE and more on board but this latest leak confirms all the specs.
Those hoping for Ice Cream Sandwich will have to wait a few months as this device will be launching with Android 2.3 Gingerbread — although I’m sure an update will come shortly. LG hasn’t been the fastest in the past with updates so that is a thing to consider. Looking very similar to the Optimus LTE, also known as the LG Nitro HD the Spectrum is exactly what we’d hoped for. A huge 4.5″ 720p HD display and a powerful dual-core processor. Here are the official specs:
– Dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm processor
– Android Gingerbread 2.3
– Verizon 4G LTE
– 10.6 millimeters thick
– 4.5-inch, 1280×720 IPS LCD
– 1GB RAM, 4GB storage plus 16GB microSD
– 8 megapixel, 1080p rear camera; 1.3 megapixel front-facing
– 1830mAh battery
To get a better idea of what to expect just check out our LG Nitro HD review. They look strikingly similar and both have 4G LTE only this bad boy will be powered by Verizon’s ever expanding network instead of AT&T’s. The widget from this official press image shows February 14th next to the weather (day after my Birthday). This could be a hint for a Mobile World Congress appearance but just like our source, we think it’ll be here sooner than that and possibly launch right after CES.
