Can LG finally make some waves in the smartphone market? The company may have a shot with its Optimus G, the first smartphone that has both a quad-core processor and support for 4G LTE networks. (That means we may see it stateside, though nothing’s been announced yet.) Other specs include a 4.7-inch 720p display, 2 GB of RAM and a 13-megapixel camera. It runs Android 4.0, and will go on sale in Korea next month, according to Phone Arena.
