Super AMOLED sporting HTC Primo enters the rumor mill

It is no secret that HTC was mostly keeping quiet during this year's CES in Las Vegas. Aside the impressive HTC Titan II, running Windows Phone, the Taiwanese giant did not announce any new products.

Given the increased intensity of rumored devices from the company lately however, we can be all but certain that the upcoming MWC in Barcelona will be the place for more than one major announcement from HTC. Yet another device entered the rumor mill today, thus joining the likes of HTC Ville and HTC Edge - the dual-core HTC Primo.

Reportedly, the HTC Primo will be a mid-range device with a dual-core CPU, clocked at 1GHz. A 3.7" Super AMOLED screen is expected to be on board of the upcoming handset - a sharp departure from the current LCD units which the company uses.

The rest of the specs include 512MB of RAM, 5MP snapper, and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with Beats Audio our of the box.

All in all, the HTC Primo sounds like an enticing device. Its rumored price tag of £250 should help its cause even further.

Since we're talking rumors here, don't forget to add the usual pinch of salt to the above information. Thankfully, MWC is not that far away, so we will get the full scoop on the spot and tell you all about it.

LG CX2 images leaks, it's shaping as an LG Optimus 3D 2

Under an assumed name, CX2, LG is reportedly in the works to bring a successor to its Optimus 3D smartphone with a better processor, superior display, slimmer body, NFC chip and HSPA+ (21 Mbps).

Now those are only alleged specs from an undisclosed source so take them under advisement.

Speaking of which, it's expected to debut at the Mobile Word Congress in February and going retail in early spring. The OS of choice is rumored to be Gingerbread and not ICS though an update seems likely at some point.

The processor of the CX2 should be a 1.2 GHz dual-core TI OMAP, the display, while likely to remain a 4.3-incher of WVGA (480 x 800) resolution, and it's said to be a NOVA unit, meaning superior brightness and contrast. It's expected that there will be a serious brightness decrease in 3D mode as opposed to 2D mode. The cameras are expected to remain 5 MP and the device will supposedly be thinner. Finally the auto-stereoscopic display is rumored to be more effective in converting regular 2D content into 3D.
