LG G3 Design and Specifications Leaked Ahead of May 27 Launch

 

As the launch of LG G3 smartphone nears, we have been witnessing more leaks hit the Web. While earlier this week we saw the alleged cover case images of the LG G3 smartphone, showcasing the rear button interface and the large display, the latest set of leaks once again show off alleged pictures the LG G3, this time without the case.

 

The latest high-resolution purported images of the LG G3 clearly show its rear, front and bottom side. Some expected (said to be final) specifications of the South Korean giant's latest flagship have also sprung up alongside, courtesy the good folks at GSMArena.

 

While the alleged LG G3 image showing the bottom side of the smartphone highlights its USB charging port, the 3.5mm jack and microphone, the second image highlighting the front panel reveals the smartphone's ultra-thin bezels with LG branding at the bottom. The third alleged LG G3 image showing the rear panel clearly highlights the camera, rear volume and power buttons, and flash.

LG G3 leaks in high-res live images, shows ultra-thin bezels

 

It seems like when we brought you the news about the upcoming LG G3 smartphone with our exclusive coverage a couple of days ago we opened some sort of floodgates. The device hasn't managed to stay away from the spotlight ever since, making appearances through live images and case makers.

 

Now, we have yet another leak, which shows the front, rear and the bottom of the smartphone in good quality high-resolution images.

 

 

It looks like the company is trying its best to deliver a maximum screen to size ratio on its G3 smartphone. The handset appears to have ultra-thin bezels and just like its predecessor, the LG G2, the upcoming flagship will not feature any physical buttons.

Some interesting rumors on display and performance.

 

An octa-core processor is on the cards
 

In the same December 2013 report which claimed the G3 will have a 1440p screen, it was also suggested the device would be powered by an octa-core processor running at 2.2GHz. This would be a change from the G2, which used a Snapdragon 800, and like the screen resolution, would see the G32 stand apart from the competition.

Some people are speculating that the Nexus 6 will be a G3 variant, albeit with the usual limiting features (no uSD card, no user-replaceable battery, etc.), but a rock bottom price.

And of course I just bought a G2.

Does anyone know when this will be available in Thailand? Me likey.

Any news on a Thailand release date? I haven't seen anything yet.

It was released today I think. According to posts on Facebook.

Dtac are doing for just over 20k. G2 is now about 12k

I've been thinking of getting one since I noticed it a couple of weeks ago. 20k in Thailand is a fair bit cheaper than the 25k or so they will cost in the UK, especially as I'll have to buy 2. I think these will erode Samsung's dominance.

No, but I for one won't be buying a Samsung.
 

Hmmmm. G3. Looks like my Mrs will be getting my G2 soon.

I note the model in Thailand is the 2gb ram/16gb rom version. has anyone seen the high spec 3gb/32gb? I mean if you are going to spend that sort of money on a phone, you may as well get the best.

One further note. I see DTAC/AIS are not delivering the phones until July 1st, so chances are they aren't in the shops yet.... except perhaps at MBK. In addition, DTAC has sold out completely on their website.

 

If anyone does find one on the street, please let me know

I took possession of my LG G3 last Thursday.. Performs well, especially as I have rooted/overclocked it.. An issue that I was able to fix by rooting was that it wouldn't remember which environment I wanted to use as the default home. I was able to uninstall the one I didn't want.

The LG environment isn't as colourful as the Samsung one and it looks a bit bland, but I don't mind it.

Just bought a 3GB Ram/32GB G3 from MBK for 18,800 baht :-)

I got the same model from Lazada begging of the month, but for 22k.
18.8k is a great price. The LG wipes the floor with the S5, and I find the interface cleaner and more refined (although HTC is still trumps).

You guys who bought the G3 - if you had the G2 (like I have) - is it worth the upgrade? If so, why?

 

Tempted but my G2's only 6 months (ish) old.

It depends. The only reason I would upgrade from a G2 is if the camera is really important to you, particularly fast focusing in low light. The other features (knock code, higher res screen etc) are nice to haves, not must haves. The G2 is still a fine phone.

I have the G2 and considered the G3 but decided against it only because the G2 does a great job already and photos are excellent keeping in mind the lighting conditions.  Believe the main issue is battery life is shorter due to the QHD screen.  Some reports that the additional size, though not huge, it doesn't work single handed as well.  Still, the temptation is there and my wife would love to have my G2. 

 

Good article, though I rather not have read it as it just tempted me more - 10 Reasons to Upgrade

I use Nokia PC suite and enjoy sending emails with my pc via the Nokia mobile plus I can see the mobile ringing on my screen when I'm working on my pc.  Can I do the same thing with LG PC suite?

There are quite a few aps for Android that should be able to do it.  I don't have any at the moment myself though did have an pc-android SMS app a long time ago but the technology for these apps have come a long way since then.  Here is an example - http://www.mobiledit.com/mobiledit

Well that's interesting, thanks.  Having always used Nokia phones I never realized that.  I'm now in the process of switching phones for the camera.  Still undecided between Nokia 1020 or the LF-g3.  With the Nokia 1020 I think I also have issues using Nokia PC suite. 

I tried the mobile edit but it wanted cash to activate.  It said it was free but it was only free to look at the messages not write one.  If I did everything correctly.  So back to looking.

12k? In MBK?

rooted and overclocked: are there already "clean" roms for it? I wanted to buy the S4, but maybe the G3 is a better option?
