LG Optimus 3D Ads Are As Lame As They Get [Multiple Proofs Included]
LG’s new Android mobile phone – Optimus 3D maybe awesome but it’s advertisements are as lame as they get. The ads try to show the viewers how a 3D mobile phone can boost their day to day life. The first one is about a girl who can’t understand Yoga moves when watched on a normal…
