Earlier today, LG Philippines launched the LG Optimus Vu Android smartphone, boasting a 5-inch IPS display with a 4:3 aspect ratio.
The LG Optimus Vu smartphone boasts a NVidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz, 1GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, 8 megapixel rear camera with 1.3 megapixel HD front-facing and runs Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich. It also comes with a stylus so you can take advantage of its Quick Memo feature.
What separates the Optimus Vu from other phablets is its 5-inch IPS display (1024 x 768) that has an aspect ratio of 4:3. The result is a smartphone that has a squarish look instead of a rectangular one. Although the Vu sports a wider form, it is light at 168g and maintains a thin profile at 8.5mm – lighter and thinner than the Samsung Galaxy Note II. Take a look at our quick hands-on below:

Very good specs but the external design is really really ugly. Too sad :(

ampanget!
at nakaktakot siyang hawakan sa isang kamay lang, baka malaglag! tingnan mo si sir louie, ingat na ingat sa paghawak!
For P28k, I was expecting it to come with 2GB of RAM, just like its closest competitor, the Note II.
That will be stuck with ICS forever.
saw this yesterday at cyberzone megamall, it looks weird to be honest compared to the note 2
