Pantech Vega S5 does Android 4.0 on a 5-inch LCD, facemask not included

[![Pantech Vega S5 does Android 40 on a 5inch LCD, facemask not included][1] ][2]

The 4.5-inch [Vega LTE][3] is not eight months old and the 4.8-inch [Vega Racer 2][4] is still properly wet behind the years. But, the flow of progress abides by no calendars, so welcome the Pantech Vega S5 to the world. It steps up to a full 5-inch IPS LCD with a 720p resolution in a phone that, thanks to a "zero bezel" design, actually has a smaller footprint than the [Samsung Galaxy S III][5]. There's a whopping 13 megapixel shooter in there with zero lag, a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, 16GB of internal storage and a 2,100 mAh battery that's said to deliver 11 hours of talk time. If that sounds like a good combination indeed it could be, but don't spend too much pining -- this handset is destined only for Korean shores.
