LG Optimus G Pro witha 5" 1080p screen leaks

LG Optimus G is one of the most
powerful phones on the market right now
and it got the honor of being the basis of
the latest Google Nexus phone. Yet, LG
may already be working on an improved
version, the LG Optimus G Pro.

Blog of Mobile came upon some info that
points to the Optimus G Pro joining the
5” 1080p fight. The quad Krait CPU will be
clocked at 1.7GHz (up from 1.5GHz) and
the battery capacity has been bumped up
to 3000mAh. It might also pack an IR
port, similar to the Sony Xperia ZL.

The rest is pretty much the same – 13MP
camera, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, 2GB
RAM, 32GB storage, LTE connectivity,
dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, NFC, wallet and
a couple of digital TV standards
(presumably, those won’t make it to the
worldwide version).

The LG Optimus G Pro will measure 139 x
70 x 10mm and weigh 160g according to
rumors.
A couple of things lend some credence to
the G Pro rumors - the image above was
sent to Engadget by an anonymous
tipster and Piet Zweegers, who sent this
in to us, found out LGOptimusGPro.nl is
registered by LG Electronix Benelux
(there's nothing at that domain at the
moment).

This isn't the first time we're hearing of
such a device - it sounds very close to the
rumored specs of the LG Optimus G2 .
If it pans out, it will be interesting
because the G Pro will depart from the
16:10 aspect ratio of the Optimus G
(unless the Pro has a 1200 x 1920 screen,
which was mislabeled as 1080p by the
rumors) and it will undoubtedly spark
rumors of a Nexus 5.
