So I think I just saw The Connect 2

[gigermunit]

I believe it's the LG-MS870, my uncle stopped by and is testing it as he works for MetroPCS, it's running an s4 but didn't get to see how much ram, it's not incredibly fast but it runs 4.0.4 and seems set to get jellybean on release. Runs on LTE with what seems to be a new low power radio as he has been on constant LTE for 2 days and it just hit 46% as I used it.

word me to this looks just as good not a big of a display but who cares

 

[Gman9831]

Not connect 2 more of upgraded motion, the motion was MS770 so MS770-> MS870

 

[Gman9831]

But anyways it's supposed to be released in mid January

 

[kiroshi23]

how big is the display

 

[OrKo]

I think someone said it looked 4.7 inch

 

[Gman9831]

At least 4.5 or larger

 

[jprosek]

It looks and sounds like metros version of the optimus g which would be insane lol

Optimus G is quad-core but it kinda looks like it though

 

[elbayames]

I think it might be the LG Connect 2 because it has a slightly larger screen and the design looks like a connect but white and slimmer. I don't have pictures because he was drunk and I didn't want to stay longer than needed but it was a neat phone.

Looks like a larger motion then the hardware is basically the same as the motion with a larger screen & battery, probably why Metro just upped the model number the Motion MS770->MS870, Connect is MS840
