First we heard from Sprint, and then AT&T followed-up last Monday – the only holdout was T-Mobile. Today the carrier finally comes through with the news of how its subscribers will be able to get their hands on the G Flex, and also announces another new LG Android, the Optimus F3Q. T-Mobile's G Flex pre-orders open today, with the phone ultimately arriving on February 5 – that's a ...

Last winter, LG was getting a large chunk of its 2013 lineup ready to show off, including the new Optimus F series. While far removed from being flagships, this family of mid-rangers was at least a little more capable than the Optimus L club, and the F phones supported 4G LTE communications. We haven't paid the F3, F5, and F7 a whole lot of attention in the months that have followed, but today we find our thoughts back on this hardware as we see a leak of a supposed Optimus F3Q with hardware QWERTY keyboard. Yup, despite fewer and fewer handsets in this form factor launching as time goes ...
