Hmm, smartly, I reckon I’m going to must chalk this one up to me being in a nasty temper for most of closing week, ‘cos the Mobile World Congress was once principally rubbish. The Firefox phones unveiled had been a huge let-down, Ubuntu is, well, still Ubuntu (which means that I’m no longer taken with it), and there was a gloomy lack of any famous person phones.

Excluding it seems that I wasn’t paying correct consideration, ‘cos it used to be best principally rubbish, and there was a celebrity cellphone unveiled, that I totally failed to notice.

That cellphone is, as pronounced all over the web, the LG Optimus G Pro, and I’ll be completely frank, right here: it appears to be like gorgeous…

Seriously, I’m no’ kidding, right here; LG’s hit this one proper out of the park.

Critically, this factor is working a subsequent-gen, quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor, clocked to 1.7GHz, so it easily matches the newly announced HTC One on the subject of processing grunt. Unlike that telephone, though, it’s additionally bought a 13MP digicam and a 5.5 inch 1080p reveal.

Oh, and in addition, it’s obtained a whopping 3140mAh battery, so that you’ll get a nice long standby time, too.

Actually, as regards to the only downside I can see to this beastie is that it doesn’t include a stylus, which might’ve been nice to have, since it’s a phablet. Oh, and it’s now not water-resistant, in fact, not like the Sony Xperia Z. To mitigate against that, then again, it does additionally embrace a detachable battery and a microSD slot (in addition to 32GB of inside storage), and that’s a chuffing rarity, these days.

So, in short, the LG Optimus G Pro seems to be an astonishingly excellent cellphone. I can’t wait to get my grubby paws on one…
