LG Stylo 3 brings Android 7.0 Nougat to Boost and Virgin Mobile for less than $200

LG Stylo 3 was officially unveiled back in December and made its first public appearance at Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in early January, where it was showcased alongside the new K series mid-range smartphones.

Today, Sprint announced the LG Stylo 3 is available for purchase at Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile for just $179.99 (plus tax). Customers don't need to sign up for a long-term contract, but they can choose one of Boost or Virgin Mobile's unlimited plans.

Judging by the specs list, the LG Stylo 3 offers more bang for the buck than most smartphones in the same price range. First off, the handset runs Android 7.0 Nougat right out of the box.

Also, it comes equipped with a 1.4GHz octa-core processor, coupled with 2GB RAM and 16GB of expandable memory. Moreover, LG Stylo 3 boasts a large 5.7-inch display with HD (720p) resolution, but also a stylus.

On the back side, there's a 13-megapixel camera with LED flash, as well as a fingerprint sensor. A secondary 5-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls is featured on the front side. According to Sprint, the 3,200 mAh battery powering the LG Stylo 3 should provide up to 25 hours of talk time.

Of course, you also get a range of LG distinctive features like QuickMemo+, Pen Keeper, Enhanced Stylus, Comfort Mode, Pop Scanner, Capture+, and many others.
