LG today announced the LG Q Stylus, a mid-range entry that packs a stylus for pen-based input for those who prefer that way of interacting with their device.
The phone has a 6.2-inch screen with LG’s 2:1 Full Vision (2,160 x 1,080) resolution. The phone is powered by an octa-core chipset with 3 or 4 GB of memory and 32 or 64 GB of storage. The phone comes in several camera configurations, including a Q Stylus+, Q Stylus, and Q Stylus α with a 16- or 13-megapixel main camera and an 8-megapixel or 5-megapixel front camera. The front-facing camera has a wide-angle lens. All three variants have a 3,300mAh battery and specs including USB-C, Bluetooth 4.2, NFC, wifi, and LTE 4G.
LG says the phones all have DTS-X with 3D surround sound, and IP68 for water and dust proofing, and mil-spec 810G for protection against abuse. The fingerprint scanner is located on the rear surface. The phone ships with Android 8 Oreo and LG’s pen-based software tools, such as memos and notes.
LG says the LG Q Stylus will go on sale in North America and other markets during the third quarter. Pricing and availability from U.S carrier was not detailed.
