LG G4 Note Release Date News: Killer Live Photos Surface Confirming Stylus, Metallic Chassis And More

According to the latest news, a T-Mobile employee who happens to be a XDA user named “s3rv1cet3ch” has apparently leaked a slew of live LG G4 Note photos. For those uninitiated, the LG G4 Note is the Samsung Galaxy Note series competitor that is believed to be bigger than the upcoming flagship LG G4.

Jun-Ho Cho, CEO of LG, has reportedly announced at the press conference that, the LG G4 release date is set for the second quarter of 2015. Adding a cherry on top, the bigger sibling, presumed to be the LG G4 Note release date could be in the second half of 2015, notes XDA Developers.

The leaked LG G4 Note live images show a humongous device, confirming many of the key features. The upcoming handset seemingly flaunts a sleek metal body. And as rumoured earlier, a stylus is also reportedly part of the handset. On the software end, the smartphone will run on Android 5.0.2 Lollipop, straight out of the box.

Earlier rumours pointed out that, similar to Samsung, LG is gearing up for a 360 degree design change with aluminium chassis in future devices, instead of the usual polycarbonate or plastic material. This way, LG will be able to give strong competition to the top OEMs that already use metallic chassis or metallic frame on their devices. And this apparently includes Apple, Xiaomi, HTC and the recent addition is Samsung, notes XDA Developers.

Not long ago, in December, LG reportedly filed a patent for “LG G Pen” stylus and the rumours were rife that the upcoming LG G4 will house a stylus, unlike the predecessor. However, now, XDA Developers site has confirmed that the LG G4 or LG G4 Note will indeed come with a stylus. Going by the leaked LG G4 Note images, the device will reportedly feature a 5.3-inch display. But then, the images show bezels around the display and therefore, the rumour of “non-existent bezels” in the G4 may not be true, notes the same site.

Moving on to the exterior design, Android Central notes that, the rear of the handset reportedly looks like a replica of the 2013 flagship LG G3 with the location of the power button, speaker and the flash unit. Nonetheless, the primary camera unit housed on the back of the device seems to be square in shape. Moreover, the power button has also changed from being circular to a rounded rectangle.

In any case, readers should note that, the tech giant has not confirmed the LG G4 or LG G4 Note specifications thus far.
