The Vu is shown with Verizon branding on the front, and the company’s usual 4G LTE logo on the rear. Unlike its Korean counterpart, the U.S.-bound phablet will run Android

Although the model in the FCC filing is dubbed the “LG VS950,” it’s pretty clearly the Optimus Vu as Engadget notes that a picture of the device in the filing “shows the exact same speaker grille setup on the lower left as well as the SIM flap on the upper right” as well as “something that looks curiously like an antenna on the top left – in the very same place as the Korean Optimus Vu.” For those who need a refresher about the Optimus Vu, which debuted earlier this year at
