CES Video Video Transcript

I'm Nicole Lee, senior associate editor for CNET.com and this is a first look at the LG Optimus Black. It has one of the brightest display that smartphones have. It has a nice 700 nit display that means it's even bright even in bright sunlight. It runs on Android 2.2 and it has a very nice two-megapixel camera on the front here. On the back is a 5-megapixel camera. It also has Wi-Fi and mobile hotspot capability. Pricing and availability is still unknown but it is a global release phone so it'll be released overseas before the US, if at all. I'm Nicole Lee, this has been a first look at the LG Optimus Black.
