After launching its much-anticipated flagship smartphone, G4, LG added two new siblings in the series. Dubbed as LG G4 Stylus and LG G4c, the new smartphones will be shipped to retailers across the world in the next several weeks. Both budget-friendly devices share many of the same features found in LG G4 that provides high-end user experience.
The G4 Stylus is a 5.7 inch handset, slightly larger than the 5.5 inch display found in G4. As its name implies, G4 Stylus includes LG's versatile Rubberdium Stylus that makes note taking and drawing on the generously-sized screen easy. Its smaller sibling, the 5.0 inch LG G4c, offers many of the G4's premium features and styling, but in a more compact form.
Both the phones feature 13MP or 8MP rear cameras and 5MP front-facing camera. Other popular LG-exclusive features like Gesture Shot, Glance View, and Knock Code make both the devices more convenient, secure and fun to use. G4 Stylus inherits the super-fast Laser Autofocus feature found in previous G Series smartphones for sharply focused shots even in dim surroundings. HD quality IPS displays with In-Cell Touch technology deliver a visual experience that is far more immersive and responsive than on most other smartphones in this class.
"The G4 Stylus and G4c are perfect examples of what we mean by a premium smartphone experience without a premium price," said Juno Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. "We are committed to offering consumers in fast-growing markets LG devices that not only deliver performance, but also look good while doing so. Both the G4 Stylus and G4c will surpass customers' expectations of what an LG phone should be."
G4 Stylus (available as G Stylo in North America and Korea) will be offered in both LTE and 3G configurations in Metallic Silver or Floral White color options. G4c is an LTE model only and will come in Metallic Gray, Ceramic White, and Shiny Gold colours.
LG G4 Stylus and G4c are scheduled to launch in key markets in the weeks to come. Prices and participating carriers will be announced locally at the time of availability.
