GSM Israel managed to get their hands on the LG Star, the first Tegra 2-running phone out there, and boy, what a big disappointment. I really don't know what plagued this device, but it is laggy in the browser, not lightning fast like I expected, and the quadrant score was a measly 1759. What? If I remember, the HTC Desire HD with the second gen, snapdragon & HTC Sense scored in the 1900's. Either this is a really (can't emphasize this enough) bloated UI overlay, or it is just that Froyo doesn't support both cores of the Tegra 2. Besides that, the harware of this device is gorgeous, and the camera looks pretty good. Looks like a good array of widgets are added on to this thing, also. The video down below is in Arabic, just try focusing on the device, not what the people are saying. Hopefully Gingerbread brings support for multi-core processors, as this thing was running froyo. So, what do you think about the Star? Is it just going to be another android device, or is it going to challenge the top of the line Droid & IPhone? Tell me in the comments down below!
