LG announced their latest phone today, the G3 Stylus. The phone is a stylus-equipped version of their G3 flagship, meaning it should be quite good for drawing and taking down notes on the phone’s large display. The stylus is thinner than most capacitive styli, with a small tip for precise writing.
While the screen remains at the same 5.5 inches as the G3, the resolution has dropped from 1440p to 540p – this is definitely a mid-range phone. Inside, there’s a quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor at 1.3GHz, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage with microSD slot for expansion. This is all powered by a capacious 3,000mAh battery.
The phone will run Android 4.4.2 KitKat, with LG’s usual customisation suite on board. That includes quick memo notes, tap-to-unlock, dual-window mode, touch-and-shoot, and gesture shot (for taking selfies by using a hand gesture).
We’ll have a wide range of accessories for the new LG G3 Stylus, including both official and third-party options. A section for the phone is already live on our site, and we’ll be looking to fill up these categories in the coming weeks with additional G3 Stylus cases, covers, chargers and more. The phone is scheduled to be released over the next month, so we’ll be ready for that!
What do you think of the new G3 Stylus? If you’re in the market for a stylus-equipped phone, would you rather have the cheaper but less powerful G3 Stylus or the forthcoming top-of-the-line Note 4 for a higher price? Let us know in the comments below or speak to us on Twitter @mobilefun.
