LG Optimus 3D appears in new video, dual-lens camera in attendance
Mobile World Congress is just days away and manufacturers are gently teasing their new offerings, LG being no exception. Today, a new teaser video has emerged by way of Pocket-lint , giving us a transformer-esque preview of the first 3D smartphone.
The new teaser video differs from the first video we brought you , providing a glimpse at the dual-lens camera that will allow users to create their own 3D videos – it also ditches the Hollywood-style voiceover that made LG’s initial video quite comical.
We know that the LG Optimus 3D will feature a dual-core processor, DLNA, HDMI-out and will not require glasses to be viewed. We expect to see more of this beauty before it officially launches, stay tuned for updates.
Steve Wozniak wishes Apple was less arrogant and had released two sizes for the iPhone 5
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak wishes the iPhone 5 wasn’t just a taller iPhone 4S. He argues that Cupertino has been arrogant in its decision to avoid producing more than just one size for the iPhone, specifically noting that the company should have created a smaller (iPhone 4S and previous) and a larger (not just taller, but wider as well) version of its wildly popular device.
In an interview with TechCentral , Wozniak talks about what Apple should have done with the iPhone 5. He believes the electronics giant should have simply admitted it was wrong and produced a larger version of the previous iPhone:
In fact, Apple released an iPhone 5 commercial addressing exactly this. I have to agree with Wozniak, it seems pretty defensive to me; Apple tries really hard to make the point that the iPhone 5 should not be wider, only taller, because that’s how your thumb works:

Frankly, I think this is a little ridiculous given that everyone has differently sized hands with shorter and longer thumbs. My thumb, for example, can reach all parts of the significantly larger Samsung Galaxy S 3, but my friend who owns it, doesn’t even bother trying because he has a much smaller hand than mine.
Cupertino is also for some reason ignoring the fact that people use more than just their thumb when it comes to their touch screen. Wozniak finds this annoying, though he points out that Apple made the right choice with the iPad’s size:
