It was awesome, so cool.

-I wanted a bigger phone and--
-Guess what?
-LG has delivered--
-We got a big phone.
-Looks like a--
-Okay, feels [unk].
It's okay.

-That's pretty big actually.
-Look at this guy.
-That's pretty large.
Pretty large--
-Oh, my goodness.
-pretty large phone.
-Well, clearly the better, isn't it?
'Cause it weighs nothing.
-Oh, wow.
The bat-- Well, the battery is huge, which we'll tell you about in a minute.
-Huh.
-Oh, look, we have our cute like--
-It's like a tile backsplash.
-We have our cute Korean manual.
Oh, it has cartoons.
-You did not.
-I did.
-You did.
Oh, oh, my gosh.
Is that--
-Oh, my God, that's rad!
-Yeah, like ask and you shall receive.
There is in fact, a little Gangnam-style picture in the--
-Do you see the cool like tile backsplash?
-Huh!
Ooh.
-Or backings?
-It's like the Matrix, but in snowy white.
-We got 500--
-Oh, that's pretty.
-points of something.
-Five hundred points of something in Korean.
-QuadBeat earphones.
-Awesome.
-Because dual beat is just too-- too few.
-If we were doing a show right now, I totally have [unk].
All right, we got our mini-USB cable.
-Here's the battery.
-The battery is-- Oh, it comes with two.
-Those batteries--
-That's a nice touch.
-That's a nice touch.
-All right, let's throw all those batteries in here.
Switch this thing on.
-This is-- Oh, can you-- can you charge the battery by itself?
-Wooh.
That used to be like a $50 accessory for various phones.
-That's very cool.
Huh.
-Nice.
-Just stick it right in.
-And you always have a spare, ready to go.
I love that.
-Amazing.
-Let's turn it on.
-It's ginormous!
-It's not that big.
-It is.
It's ginormous.
It's officially ginormous.
-It's not that big.
It's no big deal.
Come on!
Oh, oh, there we go.
-There you go.
-The bottom button flashes two different colors.
Look.
-Oh.
-It's flashing [unk].
Now, you know.
-Ready to go to the raves.
-SK Telecom full HD technology.
That's a little raver.
-This is--
-Soon to be--
-very Korean phone.
-Well, yeah.
-I mean it's-- That's [unk].
-Buddy intervention.
All right, we're going to attempt to go through a Korean language setup which should be fun for everybody, but you, meanwhile, will get the specs.
The LG Optimus G Pro has a 5.5-inch full HD IPS screen.
That screen has a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution at 400 pixels per inch.
It is, in some, a very nice screen.
-It has a Snapdragon 1.7 gigahertz quad-core processor
and runs Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
It's a big phone, 5.87 inches tall and 3 inches wide.
-It has micro-USB, micro-SIM, and microSD card slots and 2 gigs of RAM to power the processor.
-The front-facing camera is 2 megapixels and the rear-facing camera is an impressive 13 megapixels with flash.
-The Optimus G Pro supports NFC and it's also capable of wireless charging.
-The battery in this phone is large
too, 3140 milliamps per hour.
-LG says the handset will last seven hours with video playback and that you'll get 22 hours of talk-time.
We'll obviously test that, but those are pretty impressive claims.
It's also, as if you needed more, 4G LTE capable.
You can't-- He can't stop looking on it.
-Do you-- Is it just in my head that Dreamweaver is playing?
'Cause I'm falling for the phone.
-Because it's the perfect phone.
I have the Note II here to compare.
-Is the brightness down on that phone 'cause this seems brighter in--
-Because the screen on there is just--
-It's gorgeous.
-amazing.
And you can tell because of the size of the screen.
I'm telling you.
I am starting to think of this is the perfect phone.
Samsung may announce the Note III shortly after, and then, we'll see, but this phone is rocking my world.
I don't--
-It's-- It's [unk].
It is.
-I know.
We have a phablet convert on our hands.
-I want it.
