Earlier this month LG was all set to start rolling out Android 2.3 Gingerbread for the LG Optimus 3D full of enhancements and 3D specific improvements. That update was started yesterday on 21st and should be hitting Optimus 3D handsets everywhere right now and all week.

According to many users that are finally starting to get the update over on XDA Developers the update does not actually seem all that different. The announcement from LG said the device would see some major enhancements to 3D but so far we are not hearing about anything too special.

The Optimus 3D will be making the jump to Android 2.3 Gingerbread starting next week. The update brings not only the usual set on Gingerbread enhancements over Froyo but a number of extra improvements too, like faster data speeds and improved multimedia experience.

Enhanced HSPA+ Speed via Faster Packet Data Services Internet browsing and real-time streaming have become smoother and more seamless with up to 21Mbps HSDPA.
 
Enriched 3D Experience with 3D Video Editor and Full-screen UI Preview With 3D Video Editor, users will be able to easily create and edit 2D as well as 3D movies on their Optimus 3D. The preview screen has become wider with a transparent UI, enabling users to capture better quality 3D content.
 
Improved Multimedia with 2D Video Stabilization and Faster Gallery Activation Optimus 3D owners will now be able to record high quality video in 2D mode with the video stabilization feature, previously only available in 3D mode. Gallery loading time has also been reduced.

VoilaLG has officially announced Optimus LTE for Canadian Bell. Needless to say, LG superphone will get a prominent place in the carrier's portfolio as the flagship LTE-enabled smartphone.

This device is the best Android smartphone ever made, even better than the Google Nexus Galaxy for a four reasons:

• It has a better screen - 4.5-inch 1280×720 pixels True HD IPS, which is the best phone display evar
• It has an 8-megapixel camera - while the one Galaxy Nexus has counts "just" 5 megapixels
• It is LTE-enabled - though Verizon version will come with LTE
• It has a faster CPU - 1.5GHz vs Nexus Galaxy's 1.2GHz, both are dual-core

We already anounced before that the LG Optimus 3D will get the Gingerbread update later this month. What we have not said is that it will bring some other goodies aside from the latest available version of Google mobile OS.

The forthcoming update will be based on Android 2.3.5, and will also include such enhancements as 2D and 3D video editing, 3D to 2D conversion and higher bit-rates for 3D videos. Moreover, faster HSPA+ (up to 21Mbps on the download side) is also said to be included with the upcoming firmware.
