LG Adds Optimus F5 to Its 4G Smartphone Lineup

LG has launched the Optimus F5, the first device from its latest Optimus F Series, a new family of Android smartphones for users who want to experience the blazing speeds of 4G LTE, in Singapore today.

First unveiled at MWC 2013, the Optimus F5 powers on a Qualcomm 1.2GHz Dual-core processor, and features a 4.3-inch IPS display. With a compact 2,150mAh battery, the device was designed to deliver longer battery life without compromising on battery size. Running on the Android Jelly Bean 4.1.2 platform, it comes packed with:-

  • QSlide: allows users to open multiple apps at the same time in popup window with the ability to change the size, position and transparency of the windows.
  • Live Zooming: lets users zoom in on videos so they can get a closer, detailed look at any specific area.
  • Video Wiz: lets users play movie director by giving them the power to edit vide­os and enhance them with sound and music right on the phone itself.
  • QuickMemo: gives users the ability to write directly on a transparent layer over any captured screen image, eliminating the need to split the screen and allowing both applications to be viewed in full-screen mode simultaneously. Users can share QuickMemo notes with friends via SMS, email or social media channels.
  • QTranslator function: instantly translates not only words, but also entire sentenc­es and phrases by simply using the camera to scan the text. QTranslator accepts 44 different languages and can translate them into any one of 64 languages.
