Daran hat sich bis heute nichts geändert. Während die meisten Hersteller bereits von Android 4.0 Updates sprechen, bringt LG nun Version 2.3 Honeycomb auf seine Geräte:
LG would like to express its sincere thanks to all of the Optimus Series owners who have been waiting patiently for the Android 2.3 Gingerbread upgrade. We are excited by the high level of product interest that LG Optimus Series owners have shown, and we are taking all possible measures to offer a smooth OS upgrade in a timely manner.
The three premium smartphones of the Optimus Series will be upgraded first, as outlined below, followed by a global rollout thereafter.
- LG Optimus 2X: Now available (as of 1st November, 2011) for open models in Europe
- LG Optimus 3D: Week commencing November 21st for open models in Europe
- LG Optimus Black: Week commencing November 28th for open models in Europe
The exact timing of the upgrades in each market may vary because of the different requirements in each country with respect to domestic operators and models. Please contact local service representatives to check the specific upgrade schedule in your market.
Again, LG greatly appreciates the support and feedback that customers have given during the upgrade delay, and we will do our utmost to continually provide better service in the future.
Thank you very much.
Zuerst erhalten ab 1.11 die Besitzer eines Optimus 2x das Update, ende November folgen dann Optimus 3D und Optimus Black.
In Sachen Android 4.0 herrscht einige Verwirrung. Zuerst gab LG bekannt, dass Optimus 2x werde kein Update auf die neueste Android Version erhalten, nun krebst man zurück und spricht davon zu prüfen wann das Update erscheinen könne.
So oder so gibt LG kein gutes Bild ab, was die Updatepolitik des Unternehmens angeht. Man baut zwar schicke, schnelle und robuste Geräte, vergrault aber mit alter Software die Käufer.
