They screwed me over on my G2X purchase (not even supplying ICS for the Dual-Core Tegra 2 Phone), and now I see HUGE RED FLAGS with this phone. No JB for it? Come on... If you want to be dis-serviced by LG, get the phone. You'll be thoroughly ignored by them...
My sentiments exactly. The hardware and design of this phone looks so delicious, yet I freak out when I see the Android Development forums for the Optimus 4X on XDA:
It's virtually empty. There still isn't a custom ROM out for it. That means that we can't even rely on the community to provide updates if LG drops the ball on us.
Anyway, the Xiaomi MI-2 is launching with Jelly Bean and is priced very competitive. I might actually be flying to Shenzhen to try to pick it up.
As there are lot of people in France interested by Xiaomi Mi2 device, they actually make a survey in France, using Facebook to know if there is potential benefit for export :). Could probably be the case for other countries.
Will this be able to match the display quality of the One X?
I have to admit, I never payed attention to the air gap between the cover glass and the display itself, but ever since I've had the One X in my hand, I can't un-see it when looking at other handsets.

I like the hardware, but I'm iffy on the software.Maybe LG should make the hardware, and hand it off to HTC or Sony for software development and support...
