Phones Review Quickie: If you are an owner of the LG Optimus 2x smartphone otherwise known as the T-Mobile G2X and were hoping that your handset would eventually get updated to the latest Android operating system from the Google guys, Android Ice Cream Sandwich, it appears that your hopes of said upgrade has been dashed.
According to a report on Slash Gear by way of Google+, apparently when asked the question on Facebook, “ IS the lg optimus 2x eligible for a android 4.0 Ice cream sandwich software upgrade?” the response from the firms Indian Facebook page was…
“We will not be introducing Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich updates on LG Optimus 2X P990. Keep watching this space for further updates.”
Thus it would appear that owners of the LG Optimus 2x wont be getting updated to Android 4.0 now or in the future, which no doubt will be quite a disappointment for said owners, and apparently LG Optimus 2x owners are still waiting to get the Android 2.3 Gingerbread update.
I figure the only option for those LG Optimus 2x users that are disappointed at not getting Android Ice Cream Sandwich is to opt for another smartphone when the time comes, perhaps another Android handset that doesn’t come from LG of which there are many of course.
