LG, less than a week ahead of the G4 flagship launch, has unveiled a new mid-range smartphone named G Stylo. The handset will first hit the shelves in its home turf South Korea followed by other regions worldwide starting from May 5. LG has set a price tag of KRW 400,000 (roughly Rs. 23,200) for the G Stylo.
The highlight of the Android 5.0 Lollipop-based LG G Stylo is its support for up to 2TB microSD cards. However, it is worth noting that as of now there is no microSD card available in the market with a 2TB capacity.
The G Stylo features a 5.7-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) resolution IPS display with a pixel density of 256ppi. Since working on a near 6-inch display can be difficult for some users, LG has also included a stylus. The handset is powered by a 64-bit 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor coupled with 1.5GB of RAM.
An 8-megapixel rear camera with LED flash and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera also come housed inside the LG G Stylo. The smartphone additionally comes with 8GB of inbuilt storage. It offers connectivity options like 4G LTE, Bluetooth 4.1, Wi-Fi, NFC, GPS and USB 2.0.
Measuring 154.3x79.2x9.6mm the LG G Stylo weighs 163 grams and is backed by a replaceable 3000mAh battery. As compared to the LG G3 Stylus, which was launched in October last year in India, the G Stylo leads in almost all the sections. However, the G3 Stylus has a higher resolution 13-megapixel rear camera.
LG on Tuesday will be launching its flagship smartphone, the LG G4. As per the company's own statements and teasers , the smartphone will feature a 5.5-inch QHD (1440x2560 pixels) resolution IPS display with a pixel density of 535ppi; LG UX 4.0 with new features; 16-megapixel rear camera with an f/1.8 aperture; LED flash and laser autofocus, and an 8-megapixel front-facing camera.
