DivX, a division of Sonic Solutions, and LG Electronics today announced that the LG Optimus 2X is the world's first DivX Certified® dual-core smartphone. Powered by the high-performance NVIDIA Tegra 2 chipset, LG's new "super phone" with dual-core technology will provide the highest level of quality and optimized battery life for smooth DivX playback at HD resolutions. The companies will demonstrate the DivX HD capabilities of the LG Optimus 2X at Mobile World Congress 2011.
The DivX HD Certification program for mobile phones has been rapidly growing in popularity with leading mobile phone manufacturers. Currently there are over 30 mobile devices such as the LG Optimus 2X that provide easy playback of DivX HD movies.
