Pantech unveiled a powerful phablet in its own backyard – Vega R3. The device rocks a 5.3-inch IPS-based LCD screen while getting its power from Qualcomm’s quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor (just like the LG Optimus G).

The ones that get sold in South Korea are the most ridiculously spec’d superphones to ever grace planet earth. The ones that come to FreedomLand are the most average midrange devices we’ve ever seen.
