Spy shots of LG's "phablet" the Optimus Vu have shown up today bearing Verizon's branding upon it, as Verizon is yet to release the infamous Galaxy Note. It appears LG is looking to beat them to the punch. 

The specs of the Optimus Vu are impressive and makes the phone a definite one of a kind, It packs a 4:3 aspect ratio 5.3-inch 720p display (768x1024), on the Verizon network it's said to be powered by a Snapdragon S4 processor with 1GB of RAM which'll most likely mean it's LTE compatible, It has two cameras, one 8-megapixel rear-facer and a 1.3-megapixel front-facer for video calls. 

The device contains 32GB of internal storage that can't be expanded. Battery capacity is a reasonable 2080mAh, which should keep the device running for at least a whole day depending on usage. The Vu was unveiled running Android 2.3 but this looks  to be running Android 4.0.4.

Pantech Vega S5...

Today, Pantech unveiled a new Android smartphone, the Vega S5. The device looks to be a "phablet" sort of device with a massive 5-inch screen dominating the front, However something is very different with the Vega S5.

At 6.89mm thick and a very thin bezel which is said to be even smaller than Samsung's flagship device the Galaxy S3, this device is more easier to handle than Samsung's own Galaxy Note. The exact specs are as follows, 5-inch 720p IPS display, powered by a dual-core Qualcomm S4 processor with 1GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera and 2100mAh of battery capacity.

The Vega S5 is said to be going on sale in Korea only with pre-orders being taken from the 4th July. Since Pantech usually make their devices available in Korea only, their likely to remain that way with this device.
