We’re not sure what to think of LG’s phone updating strategy. First they said the Optimus 2X will get Ice Cream Sandwich, only to flip-flop at a later date, with their Canadian branch saying the opposite. Now we have another proof that the update will actually be released; the information comes from LG’s Korea office, which is telling the world that the new firmware with Android 4.0 is currently in the testing phase.
Now it is possible that Optimus 2X owners in some regions will get the Ice Cream Sandwich, while in some others won’t have the same luck. Then again, that would be a stupid thing to do and we’re pretty confident LG doesn’t want to take that road, which will eventually produce a ton of bad PR for the company. In other words, we think every Optimus 2X owner around the world will get its serving of Ice Cream Sandwich sooner or later. As soon as we get the exact date, we’ll let you know. Stay tuned in the meantime…
