The purported high-end Android phone pecked for release at the beginning of 2011, now known as the LG Star, showed up for a photo-op yesterday with full UI in-tow, showing us its muscles!
The device is shown as running Android 2.2 (Froyo) with an HDMI port, a Quadrant score of 1759 (which beats the stock Nexus One and HTC EVO with 2.2), and that oh-so-sweet NVIDIA Tegra 2! The pictures also show that the Star looks to be running a variant of LG’s own Android skin.
The owner of the device claims to have two in his possession and has been showing them off by posting pictures over at the Phandroid forums.
With the three new LG devices that have leaked out; this one, the LU3000, and an unnamed LTE device for Verizon, it seems that LG might become a major player in the Android device game next year!
What do you guys think? Do you think LG has the power to become a major player in the large game of Android device manufactures like HTC or Motorola? Let us know how you feel in the comments!
