Why aren't there any upcoming 3d smartphones - LG Optimus 3D

I know that many people don't like 3d effects but many people love it and our lg is becoming old ..many devices are now all about the quad cores and kraits but no new 3d devices..I wanna get a new phone but 3d is something I wanna have in my phone....so why aren't there any new 3d phones ( other than the sharp which isn't that much )??

Why people still watch 2D TV?
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app

i think its because most people would rather have a smartphone that "just does what its supposed to"..
if it looks good and functions as a mobile phone i think customers are happy... HTC Evo 3d proved to be a nice phone but there wasn't an upgraded version.. probably due to unsatisfactory sales. I guess that's the thing with 3D, its alot like Marmite, and i guess some Electronic Companies just aren't going to take the risk.

On the upside there is a third party company that is currently creating a display that clips on top of the iphone and itab display that gives it a 3d image that looks quite promising.

I don't know why but I have a feeling that we won't see another decent 3D phone any time sooner. Till 3D won't be a normal thing in everthing, like 3D TVs' price won't be something acceptable for a decent one (I mean like 42 inches TV with no matter what type of glasses), till we won't have enough 3D cameras, also at a decent price, we won't have another decent 3D phone.
For me my main criterias to have something with 3D logo is:
- at least 42 inches TV set at the lowest price possible - for me the decent size is 50 inches.
- a 3D camera with some good 3D images - Fujifilm did its' best with W1 and W3 but there's always place for better equipment
- a 3D videocamera at a decent price - the lowest price I've seen was 300 euros but imagine the image quality at this price.
- and the final and most important one - the spread of 3D around me - friends and others. I can't show my 3D photos and videoclips anywhere else but on my TV and this because I'm the only nutcracker that believes in 3D among my friends.

U r right but its a nice idea and be already saw more than than 4 phones with 3d ability I hope we can see something in the future

The 3D screen isn't the most important thing.
The 3D Camera is!
My self-shot pics look awesome on my 3D TV.
LG said sometime back that it wanted to stay ahead on the 3D phones b/c 3D TV's is of major importance and with 3D phones they can keep experiencing with things. Maybe someone has a link to the interview.
That was unfortunately before 3D Max was released, which wasn't really a new phone.
Why not put 3D in the Nexus 4? Or release a seperate Nexus 4 or Optimus G with 3D.
Make the phone a bit fatter, and just keep it well updated. Just keep vanilla android on it.
When people make more 3D pics with their phone, they may buy more 3D TV's.
And if they make pictures with LG, then they may pick an LG TV as well.
It's not as if 3D technology is too advanced.
You need 2 cameras and the right software. It's so easy that I can't understand why they haven't released one yet.
I still trust that at least LG will release a new 3D phone in the next 6 months.
I only fear that it will be an outdated phone again with low ram, 2 cores, 4,3" monitor, etc.
But boy if they would only......
I'm for now sticking to my O3D. It's the best there is 3D-wise.

I really hope samsung or sony jump into 3D phone scene too. And make it 5" quad core as powerfull as Note 2 or S3.

I'm not too sure about this but, I think LG and HTC might hold patents on parralax 3d technology, hence this might be an obstacle for Samsung and others..
Don't quote me on it though.

To tell the truth you only need one camera, a steady hand and a proper software - all of them exists and can give a normal dual camera photo

For me LG won't release another 3d phone in the next 12 months. They are stucked with unsold phones (mostly the vendors) both of first O3D but also O3D Max, they made themselves a bad name in customers' support and for me, I really hope that they won't release another phone, 3D or not. Because of them my Android experience is not so positive as I hoped will be so I'm taking in consideration to go for a Windows Phone or return to my Nokia 5800 Xpress Music, a phone I loved. No iSueAll, no SamOldCopy. Maybe Nokia Meego or, if there would be WebOS or Firefox OS, I would give them a thought.

Yeah IMO a 3D Phone should be the Flagship Device the device with everything but it seems the 3D device made are just average phone with 3D no wonder people don't buy them. Maybe with The New 1080p screens 3D might be morethan a gimmick

That's probably right but 3d phones are not over ....but not so popular..they need to release a phone with high specifications which 3d is just one of the features. ..so both people who like 3d or not would buy it.

Symbian had it's days, but one thing i like about symbian and dislike about android is that Android has higher hardware requirements. eg N8 @680mhz It does 720p @30fps afaik Android Requires 1GHZ+. i Wonder If android was not running of Dalvik VM but pure Linux ELF bianries appz would the performance be better? /offtopic

+1 this phone looks ridiculous. I just hope it feels better than the thunderbolt.
LG typically makes mediocre phones at best, at least in my experience.
According to most of the reports this thing is insanely fast. I for one am picking one up plus its running stock android and so far all the "g" series phones have large development communities.

Actually the dual cores have better battery life apparently because they don't kick in the 2nd processor until needed. That's what all the articles I've read have said.

What about Games Index? There has been some preliminary benchmark results circulating on the internet on the S2 and they have not been very impressive for Samsung's latest GPU -Mail 400. It is no different here. At least their latest variation "SHW-M250S" shows some promise, getting closer to Tegra 2, but it is still behind even their own Hummingbird's PowerSGX540! Could Samsung have been mislead to believe that ARM's GPU solution is more competitive than it is in reality?

im wondering this myself. I think ill go with the samsung... faster, lighter, thinner, better screen, better camera... am I kidding myself?
i would definately recommend you the sgs2: it has decent battery, awesome screen, dualcore, its lightweight, slim and looks stylish. and also as maybe different to other samsung phones the gps quality is very good as well as the build, though of course it is plastic. no bads with the quality though!
and i think the 3d thing is not really usefull and if you are using it, you wont use it for long as it hurts after a while for most persons! and of course the camera with the sgs2 is better quality with 8mp against 5mp or 3d 5mp with the evo 3d

Close please

Old processor is the same as galaxy s first gen.

Hi, the processor on this phone is crap compairing to Tegra 2. I run Asphalt 6 on the infuse and G2X the infuse is crap skipping frames even the nexus s is skipping frames. But the tegra 2 on G2x is extreamly smooth. So why have the infuse last Gen phone?
Useless post is useless post. Derp derp.
I wanted a bigger screen..dualcore?? Im waiting on the quad core
Why is it useless don't people come here to know what's better and what's not on the phones? Or u just bought it and u think its the best phone? ATT is bullshitting people and selling old Gen as new instead of getting the gs2 they want to sell this for 4-5 months and make money then bring the gs2 when it's going to be 6 months old we America is way behind rest of the world with technology
What u going to do with bigger screen if it's going to lag on new app's? U gonna look at the laggy screen
And the flash video is very had on the infuse try to watch and u'll see,
On dual core is smooth.
When it reaches that point i will upgrade..until then im loving my new phone..vids play fine
Good job, you've managed to be a an asshole on the internet. What an accomplishment. Congratulations

Jump on down from your high horse bro. When I come to XDA I come to read USEFUL posts. Yours is NOT USEFUL. Deal with it.
Its about user experience.
I am an engineer for a very large Telecom vendor. Trust me, we all are sold the firt level software on a long term expandable hardware.
ALL hardware is capable of some evolution. Are you mad that fiber optics can carry 100gig per second when ten years ago it was only 20gig?
Does that mean new fiber is no better than old fiber?
Technology truly is software based. You don't always need to double the hardware to achieve the same user experience. Sometimes simply better crafting software can make all the difference.

[Q] Will we see GTA3 on the Tmobile G2X

As I'm sure many of you know Rockstar announced that they will be bringing Grand Theft Auto 3 to select Android and iOS devices to celebrate the game's 10 year anniversary. On the list of supported devices it mentions the "Optimus 2X" but it doesn't mention the G2X. Can we assume that we'll see the game on the G2X considering it's such a close cousin to the Optimus 2X? I'm curious what you guys think or if you have any evidence that might suggest one way or the other.
I really hope we have the option to buy this game the day it's released so I can relive some childhood memories and I want to if (or how much) of the game has been toned down to work on a phone.

But it's not like we haven't seen different things going on with the phones although they have the same hardware. The fact that the Optimus 2X uses that LG skin overlay and the G2X runs stock android. And the fact that there was talk about only one or the other getting an official ICS update.

Hardware is the same in which to run games.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
The only difference is the radios and how memory is partitioned. Any app that runs on one runs on the other. CPU and GPU are the same and that is all that matters.
I wasn't saying that the phone couldn't RUN it but since we don't know where the game will be downloaded from Rockstar could disallow you to download the game if you're not on a device they've agreed to put the game on.

Maybe other companies announcing 3D phones will shake LG up.
They're the only company that made good 3D phones so far. (well, the 3D was good, too bad they placed it in a mediocre phone).
An Indian company also recently released a budget 3D phone (no stereoscopic camera either).
LG sold 1,5 million Optimus 3D phones. That's not that bad for LG, and definitely not a huge failure.

The O3D was not really mediocre on release. Performance was on par with Galaxy S II for the most part, and still holds up pretty well today after the ICS update. Just wish it had 1GB of ram for better multitasking.
