LG Stylus 2
The South
Korean company has now announced that a sequel to last year's G4 Stylus, dubbed Stylus 2 - will be unveiled at MWC 2016.
As clear from the device's name, the
Stylus 2 will also come with a pen, but with a nano-coated tip instead of the
previous rubber-tipped pen. LG says the change is aimed at attaining "more
accuracy."
The phone will include a set of
proprietary features that the company claims will enhance the user experience.
These include Pen Pop and Pen Keeper. While the former "toggles a popup
menu when the stylus is removed to offer shortcuts to Pop Memo and Pop
Scanner," the latter is aimed at preventing the stylus from being
misplaced - it displays "a popup message when the phone is detected as being
in motion when the stylus bay is empty."
Specs-wise, the Stylus 2 is powered by a
1.2 GHz quad-core processor, and sports a 5.7-inch HD display. RAM is 1.5 GB,
while internal memory is 16 GB, although expandable. There's a removable
3,000 mAh battery to keep the lights on.
In terms of camera, the device features
a 13 MP rear camera, and an 8 MP front shooter. Measuring 155 x 79.6 x 7.4 mm and
weighing in at 145 grams, the handset runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow, and will be
available in titan, white, and brown color options. While LG didn't reveal any
pricing-related details, it did say that the Stylus 2 will be
"exceptionally-priced."
