When LG first announced that it would follow the LG Optimus G with the LG Optimus G Pro, many of us assumed that it was going to have a much larger screen in order to compete against the Samsung Galaxy Note series. It did get bigger, bumping from 4.7-inches to 5.0-inches, but that apparently still wasn’t big enough. Now, we’re catching a glimpse of another LG Optimus G Pro smartphone, this time with a 5.5-inch screen.

While the 5-inch LG Optimus G Pro looks like it’s an exclusive to NTT DoCoMo in Japan for the time being, the phablet sized 5.5-inch Optimus G Pro is apparently heading to LG’s home country of South Korea. That 5.5-inch display retains the 1080p resolution of its slightly smaller cousin, along with a 1.7GHz Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm and 2GB of RAM.

To help power the bigger screen, they’re also giving it a bigger battery, a 3140mAh unit to be precise. That’s right around the same size as the Note 2, which makes sense since they have the same sized display (though the Note 2 is only 720p). Rounding out the spec sheet are 32GB of internal storage and a microSD slot for even more space.

This is just a leak at the moment, so we haven’t found anything in terms of pricing and availability just yet, but I’d say it’s pretty safe to assume that some variant of the Optimus G Pro will eventually make it to our shores. We just don’t know if it’s a 5-incher, a 5.5-incher, or something different altogether.

]]> lenovo k900CES 2013 will go down in history as the date when Lenovo finally put their money where their mouth is and launched an Android device actually worth lusting after. While there were rumours of an Intel powered Lenovo Android phone before today’s announcement, the K900 5.5-inch 1080 phone still managed to take us by surprise.

First of all it’s the world’s first Intel Clover Trail Android phone! Pretty impressive right? Well that new Intel chip is running at a cool 2Ghz and has 2GB RAM along for the ride! What this means is tons of power!

Not content with just giving us super performance, Lenovo have also given the K900 a Sony Exmor BSI 13 mega-pixel camera with a low-light happy F1.8 aperture with super wide lens.

Viewing those awesome photos will be absolutely stunning thanks to the 5.5-inch 1080p display with 400PPI. Despite the large size those who have had hands on time with the phone say that if feels great in the hand, similar to the Samsung Note 2 or even the HTC Droid DNA.

Unfortunately, there is some bad news for those of you reading from North America and Europe, as Lenovo have no plans to launch the K900 there. Customers in China, India, Russia, Indonesia, the Philppines and Vietnam can look forward to some K900 love, though.

What do you think, impressed by the Lenovo K900 or not?
