LG Optimus G Pro with 1080p display and massive battery incoming

LG appears to have a smartphone of formidable power – the Optimus G Pro – hidden up its sleeves according to a leaked slide from Engadget, which matches up with specs from Japanese site Blog of Mobile.

The LG Optimus G Pro will be a successor to the LG Optimus G and will feature 2012’s biggest mobile trend in the form of a 5in 1080p screen, joining the likes of the Sony Xperia Z, Huawei Ascend D2 and HTC Droid DNA.

Not only that but it’ll be powered by a Qualcomm 1.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, an Xperia Z-matching 13MP camera and best of all, a humungous 3,000mAh battery.

Current information suggests that the LG Optimus G Pro will be launching in Japan, though we’d bet our left-click fingers that we’ll be seeing the Optimus G Pro at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next month, so stay tuned.
