This is a two-month teaser, but for LG fans it is worth perking your ears up. LG will be holding a press event in New York on August 7th. The prevailing theory is they will launch their next flagship device at the event, which will be the LG G2. Just yesterday we shared some official statements from LG about the new flagship. The smartphone will come equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 800 processor, and a number of other powerful features.

LG continues to solidify their position in the world as the number 3 smartphone maker. Here's a quote with some more detail,

LG has been doing pretty good for itself lately. The second largest Korean smartphone maker managed to double its shipments in 2012, and has already sold 10.3 million devices in Q1 2013, prompting analysts to increase targets for this year.

LG’s current success is largely owed to a focus on quality and cutting-edge specifications, which allowed it to put out a series of successful devices, starting with the Optimus G, launched in the second half of 2012.

We can't wait to get our hands on this device to see what the Snapdragon 800 is capable of, and will keep you informed as the press date comes closer.
