“Android 4.2.2 KitKat”LG_G3 7The specs reveal a confusing 4.2.2 KitKat but it could well be just a typo and the G3 is most likely to come with an Android 4.4 OS (it won’t be worthy to be the next flagship if it still runs on Android 4.2.2). Moreover, there is also a possibility of different variants since we’ve been expecting 3GB RAM on board with 32GB memory but the list shows a lower 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage.

Feature-wise, the LG G3 is said to have wireless charging and a lineup of new functions for its rear camera. A previous report proved true with the laser autofocus for faster focus and sharper photos. There’s also the dual LED flash and BSI sensor for dimly-lit places. Taking a selfie with a simple hand movement is also supported and lastly, enabling a Touch & Shoot mode to remove all unneeded icons in the viewfinder is now possible.

The site also tells us what type of form factor we’ll be seeing for the G3. According to the website, its body will be made of lightweight metallic casing with a “floating ark” shape – making the sides thinner and more comfortable to operate with one hand.

Software also got tweaked. There’s now the integrated Smart Notice which is basically the Concierge function that was rumored before. It acts similar to Google Now by notifying you with important details. Additionally, enhancements on the virtual keyboard now lets you adjust its size depending on the way you use and type on it.

It’s still a bit confusing as to what the LG G3 will exactly be like, but the wait is about to end. Tomorrow we have the official specs of this smartphone straight from the launch that we’ll be covering.

What to Expect from the LG G3

It has already been confirmed that LG is launching their next flagship phone this upcoming May 28. The LG G3 has been subject to lots of speculation, leaks and talks already, but what exactly are we waiting for? Read on ton find out what to expect from the LG G3.

Design & Construction

The LG G3 has leaked in a lot of images already, with cases or without. From the looks of it, the body may employ a unibody aluminum finish to give it a premium feel (or just plastic with aluminum design). LG’s signature back buttons will still be making a show here, and beside the camera to the left, there is something that looks like a sensor with a yet to be known function. The competition is currently offering different hardware selections with fingerprint scanners, dual cameras, heart rate monitors and waterproofing, so it’s exciting to see what LG will pull off here.

Hardware specs

LG G3

From the leaked specs to speculations itself, we may be looking at a 5.5-inch display with a resolution of 1440 x 2560, a quad-core Snapdragon 801 CPU, 3GB RAM, 32GB internal memory + micro SD card support and a 13+2 megapixel camera pair that has still not been discussed much. It is reported that it’s going to be the same sensor with the OnePlus One with OIS+, so we’ll have to see how that turns out. As for the battery, it is expected to pack the same capacity as the LG G Pro 2 at 3,200mAh.

That’s about it for the specs, and whether the hardware can support that crazy resolution is still questionable. Regardless, those are still top of the line specs, beating a lot of those already in the market.

Software

LG is also upping up their game when it comes to software if the rumors are correct. Based from the leaked screenshots, their UI looks cleaner and better with the new design. It looks like they will lessen the clutter.

The next version of Android still hasn’t been announced yet, so it’s definitely going to be 4.4 KitKat. In addition, a Google Now-like interface is rumored to be arriving in the form of Concierge. How that will come into play is still unknown.

On top of everything, LG seems like they’re pushing more software features with the G3 like the QuickWindow case again, now in circular design – and speaking of which, the LG G3 will most likely have support for their G Watch.

That’s about it for the LG G3. So far, we’re looking at a winner here if these are all to be believed. LG has the chance to pull off one amazing smartphone if they manage to get the features right. Check out their teaser below:

We will be in Singapore on the LG G3’s launch on the 28th so stay tuned!

First images of the LG G3 allegedly leak

LG still hasn’t outed the much awaited successor to the LG G2, and now, images of the LG G3 have allegedly leaked. The most recent details only emerged last month, and so far, we have a consistent spec list, a quick look at the UI and a hint that it will also come in gold as boxes have already leaked.

The images of the LG G3 come in both black and white, via notorious leaker @evleaks. It retains a lot of LG’s previous design characteristics such as the branding below the display and the iconic physical buttons on the back. However, it is still unclear to us if this is all inside a protective case and it is also unclear what the other parts of the phone serve as, such as the sensor parallel to the dual LED flash.

The LG G3 is expected to have a whopping 5.5-inch display with a resolution of 1440 x 2560. A quad-core Snapdragon 801 CPU is also in tow with 3GB RAM, 32GB internal memory + micro SD card slot, a 13+2 megapixel camera pair and Android 4.4 KitKat with LG’s new skin and the concierge function. The official launch dates and the pricing is still unknown, and we will be updating you with more information before and when it launches. Stay tuned!

In addition, there’s also the ‘Concierge’ feature that supposedly works similar to Google Now. It takes note of the things you do to collect information then it throws useful suggestions at the user based on the figures collected. The photo below shows a recommendation about bringing an umbrella most likely since the user usually walks home at this time of the day and the ‘Concierge’ has already picked up this fact.
