This is the LG Star

Before we get to the raw power encased within the LG Star, it's requisite to discuss the phone's external hardware. This isn't a blade server, after all, and people are going to expect their smartphone to look the part too. Some perfectionists will be put off by the generous heaping of bezel at the bottom of the Star and the quirky spine-like column that spans its rear, but on the whole it's mostly an unadventurous and safe design, exuding the same uncomplicated slate aesthetic as most of its contemporaries. There's one device we're immediately reminded of when handling the Star and that's HTC's Droid Incredible -- albeit with the slight (major?) difference that LG's new handset offers a larger 4-inch display.

Hello Samsung-like keyboard and Touchwiz Jr.!

But pretty nice. This one is GSM, so perhaps AT&T and Verizon *are* going to do the iPhone/Android switch early next year.

I want to see what kind of battery life the dual core phones pull...

Somewhere between terribly bad and the absolute worst?

Pretty sure they'll be comparable to today's devices.

Well it could be worse and understandably so cus it's basically new technology in phones and would need time to optimize.

I think an accurate statement would probably be that they'll be comparable to today's phones, but likely erring on the shorter side. Evo-like battery life, for example.

Even looks like my Evo.
