AT&T LG Optimus G coming November 2 for $199

We’ve been hearing a lot of about LG‘s upcoming flagship phone, the Optimus G, and finally, details on availability and pricing have AT&T at least. The carrier will launch the Optimus G on November 2 for a decent price of $199 after a two-contract has been signed.

We heard earlier this month that AT&T would be bringing over the LG Optimus G to its own network, but as with many announcements, pricing and availability were yet to be known. To say the least, we’re excited that they finally decided to give us the details that really mattered. And in just three weeks, the phone can be yours

The best part is, AT&T will begin receiving pre-orders starting tomorrow. Just visit their Optimus G page, and you’ll be able to reserve your phone as much as almost three weeks in advance. If the phone lives up to the hype, pre-orders should go pretty quickly, so you may want to stay on top of reserving your own before they end up possibly selling out.

To review, $199 will get you a 4.7-inch 1280×768 True HD IPS Plus display, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, a 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 quad-core processor, an 8MP rear camera (sorry, no 13MP version like on the global model), 2GB of RAM, and dual-band AT&T 4G LTE. For just a dollar under $200, this doesn’t sound like a bad deal. Be sure to hit up our hands-on to learn more about the phone.
