The NTT DoCoMo Japanese version of the LG Optimus G will have a slightly different design and Palette UI customizations and it will be available in candy red and black shell editions with a few extra features including an infrared transmitter, waterproofing, osaifu-keitai mobile wallet, and OneSeg and Nottv mobile television services.
