While Android user interfaces from the likes of HTC and Samsung have continued to evolve alongside the Android operating system itself, LG’s Optimus UI has been struggling to keep up.

I’m almost certain I’ve seen more prototypes and mockups for the Samsung Galaxy S III than I’ve ever seen for any other smartphone before.

Samsung has today announced an updated version of its Android-powered Galaxy Ace smartphone called the Galaxy Ace Plus.

A few days before it becomes available on Verizon’s 4G LTE network, we got a short hands-on with Samsung’s upcoming Stratosphere down at the CTIA event in San Diego.
