LG Optimus Vu II specs leak out: double the RAM of the original, few other changes

[ ](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/24/lg-optimus-vu-ii-specs-leak-out/)

Having put the phat back in phablet with its original 4:3 aspect ratio, [5-inch Optimus Vu](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/19/lg-optimus-vu-goes-global-with-tegra-3/), LG seems bent on releasing a successor already, the Optimus Vu II, according to a leak from Korean blog _Bad IT Tong_. The new Galaxy Note II challenger would carry the same form factor and 1080 x 768 IPS screen as the current Vu model, while doubling the RAM to 2GB, bumping the Qualcomm processor to an 8960 1.5GHz dual-core model (not the international [quad-core version](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/19/lg-optimus-vu-goes-global-with-tegra-3/)) and keeping the LTE radio from its US Intuition variant. It would come out of the box with Android 4.0, an 8-megapixel rear shooter, 32GB of storage and a 2080 mAh battery, judging by the leaked image above -- all specs we've [seen before](http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/13/lg-optimus-vu-review/). There's no word yet on US pricing, availability, a stylus or an intriguing [universal remote app](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/27/lg-optimus-vu-2-remote-app/) teased by LG, but [recent purchasers](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/04/lg-intuition-verizon-official/) of the original Optimus Vu might be feeling left in a technology wake.
