headphone jack, an IR blaster,<br />
mic and retractable T-DMB antenna<br />
(which is used for Korea’s<br />
live TV services). The left side is<br />
home to the volume rocker and<br />
the QButton, which is a handy<br />
shortcut key that we’ll discuss<br />
later in the review. Over to the<br />
right side is the power button. On<br />
the bottom, you’ll find the micro-<br />

used for SlimPort.<br />
DISPLAY<br />
In the space of just three months,<br />
1080p displays have evolved from<br />
a non-existent smartphone feature<br />
to the primary indicator of<br />
a phone’s flagship status. Luckily,<br />
the Optimus G Pro offers such<br />
a screen, which LG bills as True<br />
HD-IPS + LCD. Frankly, we’ve<br />
never seen a 1080p smartphone<br />
panel we didn’t like, and the G<br />
Pro’s non-PenTile, 5.46-inch<br />
rendition is no exception — especially<br />
when viewed next to the<br />
Note II’s 5.55-inch, 720p display.<br />
(As an aside, both phones<br />
use the same panel size, but LG<br />
packs more unused pixels around<br />
the border to make the viewable<br />
screen space slightly smaller.)<br />
Crunching the numbers, the<br />
phone’s pixel density (401 ppi) is<br />
lower than that of the HTC One<br />
(468 ppi) and the Droid DNA<br />
(440 ppi), but the difference be-
