The LG Optimus G Pro is the genius device LG is planning to share with the press in New York, on May 1st, in an event that will feature Australian indie rock band Atlas Genius (hence the name of the event).

As we suspected when LG has started sending out invites to the press to its “Share the Genius” event a few days ago, the Korean company is planning to make the LG Optimus G Pro (which is doing quite well in its native country) the star of the show (or the genius, if you will), on May 1st, at the The Metropolitan Pavilion in New York City, according to the second invitation LG has sent out.

It will be interesting to see if the black version LG has recently teased on Facebook will be available stateside right from the start and, also, if the rumors about AT&T having the LG Optimus G Pro available on May 10 will be confirmed.

Fact is that the wait is almost over, so you can check out our LG Optimus G Pro review below and see what you can expect from the device:

U.S. readers, do you plan on getting an LG Optimus G Pro, once it’s available?
