It's worth trying.

Does the recent firmware update fix the autofocus problem when recording videos? Also, is the audio quality really as bad as gsmarena is saying?

There are still Problems with the autofocus.
10B just changed the tegra3 usage... at least ... this is what I saw.
Next update should come in near future (said LG Korea)

from my optimus 2x scenario's I would never buy another LG phone, I currently have a HTC one X, that runs flawlessly.
I went back to my original O2x the other day to see how it was, and It was diabolical, slow laggy loss of signal, terrible battery, 3g drop all the time ahahah terrible, and that was stock rom from LG, its been out for over a year now and they still havn't fixed the problems.

Good luck to the brave people who buy an LG

LG did say they will guarantee updates for all compatible phones

Can't post link but from TechRadar:

Quote:
Back in February at MWC 2012, we spoke to LG regarding the Jelly Bean update and the manufacturer confirmed it would guarantee an upgrade to Android Jelly Bean for all compatible 2012 handsets.

We will have to wait and see if it delivers on that promise.

Update: A spokesperson for the firm has told TechRadar: "LG will continue to support the latest android platforms, across LG devices however at present an exact date is not yet confirmed."
Personally i'd like to see manufacturers offering the customer a choice when updates aren't possible of either switching to the latest, vanilla Android or remaining with the skinned version.

In theory every Android phone should be able to run vanilla Android?

Will third party video recording apps like this one fix the autofocus problem of the O4X?

I wait on my LG, was hard get my hands on a White atm. where i live..
And i have hox and also use my s3 right now, still i realy like that New LG.
What i realy did like on the LG was the screen, just that was worth get one.
But for them who get a phone to have for long time maybe it is risky if they dont do updates. For myself i am just happy if it works for some time till something New comes ..

It is worth buying in my opinion! I've had mine for some days now and it's wonderful.
The screen is GREAT. The phone is very fast, haven't noticed any lag yet. The only problem that I've found is the annoying autofocus when you record video. But that's it so far.
