LG G Flex headed to 20 European markets in coming months

LG has announced that the LG G Flex will be headed to 20 European markets in the coming weeks and months.
U.K., Germany, France, Italy, Sweden and Austria are among the nations noted by the phone maker, adding to availability in Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore and the U.S.

The device feature a 720p 6-inch curved P-OLED, which LG claims is ultra-light, ultra-thin and flexible. The device runs on Android 4.2.2, is powered by a 2.26GHz Snapdragon 800, an Adreno 330 GPU, 2GB RAM and a 3500mAh battery. In addition, the device has a 13-megapixel rear camera, and a 2.1-megapixel front camera. The OLED panel is also built with plastic substrates, for better durability. The display also includes Real RGB technology for all three sub-pixels in one pixel, increasing brightness.



Another very interesting feature is what LG calls 'Self-Healing' coating for the back cover which helps the device "recover from the daily wear-and-tear scratches and nicks that un-cased smartphones are likely to receive."

For connectivity, the Flex has LTE-A, LTE, HSPA+, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 3.0, Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac) and NFC suuport. LG can also decode MP3, CD quality or 24 bit/192kHz Hi-Fi for audiophiles.
