Bad news for LG fans in Australia as the South Korean company won’t be launching the Optimus 4X HD in the country.

Although the smartphone was confirmed to be launched in Australia in Q3, LG told folks at AusDroid that won’t be bringing the Optimus 4X HD in the country anymore.

No further explanation was given so we must assume LG plans to launch its next Android flagship smartphone, the Optimus G in Australia by the end of the year.

Anyway, those who really want to grab the LG Optimus 4X HD can do so from various retailers across the country, but they will have to pay the no-term price.

Mobicity currently sells the smartphone for $420 AUD outright, but there might be others offering the Optimus 4X HD as well.
