When rumors about the phablet member of LG G3 family started to spread, many were hoping to see the power of LG G3 in a bigger body along with a stylus and of course G3’s many software features.
Today the Korean mobile manufacturer announced the LG G3 Stylus as the newest member of G3 and unlike the expectations, it is just nothing like the G3 in terms of hardware specifications. But when it comes to the software features, the G3 Stylus features most of the cool LG G3 software features, including Dual Window, Smart Keyboard, QuickMemo+, Gesture Shot, Touch & Shoot camera, and our favorite Knock Code.
LG G3 Stylus General Specifications:
- 149.3 x 75.9 x 10.2 mm, 163g
- 5.5-inch IPS LCD Display, 540 x 960 pixels
- 1GB of RAM, 8GB of Expandable Internal Memory
- 12MP / 1.3MP Main and Front cameras
- Quad-core 1.3 GHz processor
- Android 4.4.2 KitKat
- 3000 mAh Li-Ion battery
- Colors: Black, White, and Gold
Are you disappointed about the specs? Well, you should be as the specificati ons completely match the mid-range class and it is miles away from the great LG G3.
The G3 Stylus design language is the same as the LG G3, and the included stylus is where LG tries to compete with its hometown rival, Samsung. But other than having a stylus in common, G3 Stylus is nowhere near the Samsung Galaxy Note series as the rich software experience designed for stylus can be only found on Galaxy Note devices.
Dr. Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company promised an “exceptional price that can’t be beat” for the LG G3 Stylus and according to the shipping plan, the 5.5-inch phablet will first visit Brazil in September, and then goes on sale in Asia, Middle East and Africa and CIS. Since the current version of LG G3 Stylus doesn’t support the LTE network, it’s no surprise we don’t see the U.S. and Canada in the list of countries to have the device for sale.
LG G3 Stylus availability and price are yet to be unveiled at the time of launch, but you can have the chance to work with G3 Stylus at IFA 2014 in Berlin.
