LG announced the Optimus Black at CES 2011 and we had a chance to play with this device at MWC 2011. The most interesting feature of the Optimus Black is the 4 inch NOVA display with a brightness of 700 nits making it one of the brightest mobile displays. The device is also incredibly thin at 9.2 mm and just 6.0 mm at one point. It also features WiFi Direct which means that you can transfer content with other WiFi Direct devices without the need of a wireless access point.

Another interesting feature is the Gesture Key which we spoke about here.

5MP camera on the Back with LED Flash and HD Video

2 MP Front Facing Camera

It's available in white too .

The Optimus Black is expected to go on sale in the coming months in most markets.
