14 DAY TRIAL // LG has just introduced the Optimus 3D smartphone in South Korea, along with 3 free games developed by Gameloft.
All 3 stereoscopic 3D games are pre-loaded on the Korean version of the Optimus 3D, while 14 others can be purchased within the Android-based smartphone.
The free games include titles such as: Asphalt 6: Adrenaline, N.O.V.A. - Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance and Let’s Golf 2.
Furthermore, hardcore gamers can purchase one of the 14 Gameloft titles that are available for download directly from the handset:
Assassin’s Creed: Altaïr’s Chronicles, James Cameron’s Avatar, Ultimate Spider Man: Total Mayhem, GT Racing: Motor Academy, Shrek Kart, Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus, Real Football 2011, Star Battalion, N.O.V.A. 2 - Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance, Dungeon Hunter 2, Fishing Kings, BackStab, Eternal Legacy and Shadow Guardian.
However, it appears that Gameloft and LG decided to offer these 14 titles at only half price for the first three months.
In addition, another 3D game entirely produced by LG, and called Archer Craft, will also be available to Optimus 3D owners as a free download.
LG is trying to appease Android fans with exciting offers that include its Optimus 3D smartphone, as the company aims to sell 1.7 million units of the model by the end of the year.
For those not familiar with the Optimus 3D, the phone is equipped with a high-speed dual-core and dual channel 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor, complemented by a PowerVR SGX540 GPU.
On the inside the phone packs 512 MB RAM, 8 GB of internal memory, as well as microSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 32GB).
According to LG, the Optimus 3D features dual-channel configuration, which means that data transfers take place simultaneously between the dual-core and dual-memory, resulting in consistently faster performance.
Another strong point of the device is the large 4.3-inch 3D LCD capacitive touchscreen with 16 million colors and 480 x 800 pixels resolution.
It is also worth mentioning that the Optimus 3D is delivered with the world's first 3D augmented reality (AR) browser developed in collaboration with AR pioneer Wikitude.
